    Was I the only one here who actually watched part of the Buffalo/Liberty match-up in the Bahamas Bowl? Truly a game for the ages in a 15,000 seat stadium usually used for soccer matches. Buffalo waxed Liberty 26-7. It could have easily been 33-7, but the refs took about 10 minutes to review...

    Memorial Stadium

    Ah! Youth! Looking back, I can't believe all the crap we got away with then that in no way the youth of today can.

    Should P.J. Fleck's Gophers have bigger goals (and more accomplishments)? (video)

    Agree with you and Deusen on the importance of QB play. Whether through the portal or building an internal succession plan (difficult in the NIL/Portal era), above-average--and hopefully more--play at the position is absolutely mandatory to get and stay at the next level. I think Fleck...

    Memorial Stadium

    I was a grad student in the late-70s/early-80s and the cost of student season tickets were so low that they didn't greatly diminish my alcohol budget so I saw about a dozen games at Memorial. A few more when I was in college north of Riverside and after I had finished my grad school course...

    Fleck could have absolutely buried Kill's NMSU team when they came to town a couple of years ago, but he put on the breaks. I suppose one can argue that he had Lindsey throwing late in the Rhode Island game, but the Gophers last score in the Maryland game was a 51-yard run by Darius Taylor on...

    That and reward the second-teamers who have put in the same amount of practice time and had sacrificed as much as the regulars during the season. But "Noooooooooooooooo!" Lane had to make a statement.

    It looked like from the outset, Kiffin was absolutely determineed to destroy a Duke team that had lost its QB and starting RB to the portal prior to the bowl to somehow vindicate SEC superiority. Why the Mississippi starters were even in the game when they were up by 30+ points in the 4th...

    SEC armor - hypothetical results

    Conference championship games are now basically superfluous and eat up a week. Someone is always going to be left out regardless of how many teams are in the CFP. Fans just to live with that.

    Last play I saw in the ASU/Texas game before heading to the Roseville AMC 16 to see "A Complete Unknown" was Dillingham's decision to go for it on 4th and goal instead of taking the gimme points (if any points are indeed gimmes). It was 17-3 at the time and ASU's defense had steadied itself and...

    Stop it Hansel! I go out to the movies at halftime of the Texas/Arizona State game. Looks like I missed on helluva half of football.

    I watched the first half, didn't watch a lot of the second half, but did come back for the last few minutes. I didn't see Jeanty's big second half, but based on his play in the first half, I wasn't that impressed. I thought Penn State could have manhandled them if they had just run straight...

    Looks like the Penn State offensive line is vying for the Conrad Dobler award.

    Another NIL mess…

    Thank you Judge Wapner for showing up and endorsing my previous post.

    Another NIL mess…

    Still, as Judge Wapner used to say "Get it in writing." He said that almost as much as he said "Can you show me the receipt?"

    I was walking the dog. Can someone walk me through the last sequence of plays run by the Hawkeyes that evidently sealed their doom?

    How would you rank the final eight?

    I don't know if they are 8th, but Georgia without Beck is in the lower half. But just watch, Stockton will pull a Stetson Bennett out of his butt and somehow they will win it all. I hope that doesn't happen.
