He'll do better there and Rutgers will continue improvement.

Psychological counseling needed for Goopher fans to bring excitement to the issue of whether we beat out someone for 15th place or 16th of 18. having no divisions in the swollen conference remains a terrible idea. It can't last.

60,000 turned out to watch wunderbar QB Dylan Raiola complete 16 of 22 passes for 240 yards and two TDs. He's living up to the hype - definitely can throw the long ball accurately. The back-up QBs looked good, too. With an easier schedule, Huskers could win eight games this year. They benefited...

Nebraska will draw 80,000 for its spring game - and they have to buy tickets. We will draw zero and apparently not be on BTN. In the crazy situation college football is in today, you need every bit of exposure and publicity you can get (revolving door portal, poaching players with cash, etc.)...

Federal court decisions are further mucking up the NIL situation as far as the NCAA is concerned, but could the NCAA return to the one year sit-out for transfers? That would go a long way toward reducing the anarchy we see in college football today.

Atkinson's books are terrific. Take a look at the trilogy on the Pacific War by Ian Toll - amazing.

As PJ said re football: "It's like the pros, but with every player a free agent and no salary caps."

Nebraska draws 85,000 to its Spring Game, while we don't have one. The Spring Game was always a tonic for the most dedicated fans, but fans are becoming less important as revenues from TV contracts grow faster than ticket sales. Only Lou Holtz made a big deal out of Spring Games, pulling 40,000...

Will be a tough season - being in a conference with 18 teams and no divisions is a poor incentive for fans, maybe even for the team. None of the West Coast teams should be in the B10 - they should have worked out a separate conference relationship in which the Pac-12 was B10#2 and each team...

Paying students to pay will inevitably give birth to a union movement - and it has, at Dartmouth in basketball. This will make the situation even worse, if that is possible. In the '60s every B10 team except one won a football championship. That will never happen again.

Georgia and Alabama 1, 2. They will both be in the Big 24 by that time.

Cole finally gets to play, scores three touchdowns leading his team to a bowl win - that's the real story.

Still work to do - challenges to be met. This isn't Michigan.

Brutal schedule. QB is a question mark, but the Gophers may have to struggle to win six. Could even be a 3 or 4 win season, but QB will tell the tale.

Gophers lose a DC with an excellent overall record because they don't pay enough; then they hire another DC at much lower pay. Go figure..

Typical of the federal courts: destroy community discipline because an aggrieved individual or group of aggrieved individuals don't like a rule or practice. Goes all the way back to Madalyn Murray O'Hair 60 years ago.

They wear a different uniform every week and have played at home with charcoal!

Sitting out a year is the minimum task to help stop anarchy in college football.

Well, Doc Williams had some great teams going before 1920, sort of the stone age of college football (mostly before the forward pass was a regular thing). He ran up incredible scores against the good, the bad (beating Grinnell of Iowa 146-0), and the ugly (high school teams), but he played very...

Speed and quickness, too.
