OT: Why is Warren Buffet always ahead of the game?

Is there anyone in their mid-40’s factoring social security into their retirement equation? I think of it as a nice to have bonus.
I'm not factoring it in at current payment rates but I think it's demise is greatly exaggerated. Political suicide to get rid of it and we would probably pay a lot of it out in other forms of assistance anyway.

SIAP....The 1000 pound Gorilla in the room...

I don't see many of these seniors opting out. Maybe a transfer reciever but many of these guys want this one badly. Too much losing and they want to go out winning. This isn't a case of top draft picks having a disappointing season. Win 2 or 3 more and they may ALL play.
Hope you are right but it’s been so long since we were in a bowl that opting out was rare and NIL didn’t exist😀

Also, NU fans will travel in hordes to whatever game we get. I know Ill be there. Its a good chance for our fans to show some of these empty bowl game stadiums what they have been missing with all our sucking.
here are the B1G's bowl affiliations:

- Cheez-It Citrus Bowl vs SEC
- ReliaQuest Bowl vs SEC
- Duke's Mayo Bowl vs ACC
- Music City Bowl vs SEC
- Pinstripe Bowl vs ACC
- Guaranteed Rate Bowl vs Big 12
- Quick Lane Bowl vs MAC

some good locales (Tampa, Charlotte, Nashville, PHX), some bad ones (NYC, Detroit)

The Offense: 2023 vs 2024

Haarberg started 8 games for us last year, but really only played 7 since he went out so early against Maryland.
DR has started 8 games for us this year.

here's how they and the offenses compare:

HH - 49% completions, 1,444 total yards, 11 total TDs, 6 INTs (7 games)
DR - 66.1% completions, 1,686 total yards, 9 total TDs, 7 INTs (8 games)

the offense is averaging 24ppg compared to 22ppg last year during HH's starts
the offense is averaging 358ypg compared to 317ypg last year during HH's starts

pretty similar numbers. by far the biggest improvement is in fumbles lost, but that really hasn't translated to more points.

W/L record is the same.

I was pretty surprised to see how similar our production has been this year compared to last year's ragtag bunch.
Raiola has a higher completion percentage but other than that, the rest of the stats are similar.
