    Is Andy Reid the Tom Osborne of the NFL?

    Hell yes! He clinched a championship by running the option on key plays! "The Chiefs went to a triple-option concept with Mahomes, and it produced two valuable conversions." https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39506629/how-patrick-mahomes-chiefs-beat-49ers-super-bowl-2024-stats-surprises-shanahan

    Watching the college playoff games

    This is Reason #1 for hope. Reason #2 is the fact that NU is dead last among Power 5 teams in turnover margin over the last 20 years, and it's not close. On Sept. 10, NU had a -105 turnover margin since the 2004 season, and the next worst team was at -55. We closed the season at -116 for the...

    If money is involved, then contracts and the accompanying obligations should be involved as well.

    Andra Franklin was a great FB in class of Rathman, Schlesinger, and Mackovika. Pro-Bowler in 1982. Hurt is knee next year IIRC.

    WTH?! Is Moos Channeling his inner Shawn Eichorst?

    Nope. I've hated all of the OSU beatdowns in recent years but recognize the value of playing the best.

    WTH?! Is Moos Channeling his inner Shawn Eichorst?

    Considering backing out of the NU-OU game in '21?! No friggin' way! I'll contribute to a GoFundMe to make this happen. I don't care if it's a beatdown. Nut up and play the game! OU put up with NU beating the snot out of them a couple times in '90s when they had gone off the rails. I remember one...

    Covid Cases & College Football

    Nobody is making the argument that we should just let the shootings run their course since they only affect a small percentage of children. That's the difference.

    Covid Cases & College Football

    Centre County, where Penn State is located - my employer - has low numbers but cases are ticking upward. After weeks of 0, 1, 0, 2, 1, we're ticking up to 6, 7, 8. After thousands of students hung out in State College last weekend and packed the bars, I expect cases to jump significantly in the...

    Open bars are ideal for spreading the virus.

    Jerry Sloan??? WTH????

    I always thought the Stockton-Malone pick and roll game was similar to TO's offense. The defense knew what was coming, but they executed it so well and used so many subtle variations that defenses still couldn't stop it.

    What actually happened?

    Ongoing decline of rural Nebraska, which had been a unique athletic culture that outperformed its population in terms of producing good players. This was a pipeline of talent that NU did not have to fight other schools for. TO & Staff knew how to evaluate small-town and 8-man players...

    JD and Jaevon

    I think UCF's roster is full of guys who were overlooked by FSU, Miami, and Florida, plus a few SEC teams. They are PO'd and play with a serious edge to prove those schools wrong.

    JD and Jaevon

    Back in the day (70's & 80's), Switzer and to a lesser extent TO, minimized contact drills and scrimmaging for proven upperclassmen during spring ball. There was no point in risking injury when you already knew someone could perform at a high level. JD fits that category. Might be the only...

    Has anyone's mind changed on

    The talent is concentrated at the top because the playoff is limited to 4 teams. The top 6-8 programs have a tremendous advantage when approaching the top 250 recruits. Expand to 8 teams, and suddenly about 20-25 programs can plausibly make the case that they have a legitimate shot at making...
