You'd have to get the whole gameplan in a single seance. If you had to perform a seance between plays, I think you'd get a ton of delay-of-game penalties. Of course, if you did have a seance, you could probably get Burnsie in the conversation as well.

Mattel Talking Football.

One would think so depending upon when the were enrolled in the JUCO ranks. I've given up trying to figure out what the courts will do, but when in doubt it usually leans toward more eligibility. I think back to when the NCAA screwed up Marcus Carr's eligibility.

Really difficult to get an overall read from this game. It's like the football team's game against Northwestern State. Difference is Medved can only go so deep. I missed the first half. They've looked sloppy at junctures which may be attributed to Medved trying different combinations. As...

Thanks. Clears that up. I guess the Northwestern coaching staff didn't meet the undergraduates stringent entrance requirements.

I just found out that the USC back-up QB switched jerseys with the USC punter when they ran the fake punt that resulted in a first down. If there isn't a rule about that, there certainly should be one. Seems like really unsportsmanlike conduct.

For some reason, Northwestern consistenty performs above their level of raw athlectism. It's the opposite for USC. As we saw last night, once USC put the car in drive, they pretty much blew Northwestern off the field. What I worry about in our game against Northwestern is that Komolafe will...

I think that also fits in the playing time narrative. If a kid believes he was under-recruited, he may choose a program where he is going to see the field early in his career and hopefully perform at a level that will entice higher-level programs to seek him out as a transfer. In the current...

Can't prove the negative, but Johnson may have had a tournament team if Christie, Payne, and Hawkins had stuck around. To your other point, Medved has a much stronger track record than Johnson did and also has a more firm idea of the system he wants to run. My point about Wisconsin is that...

One of the things Wisconsin has done is keep most of their core guys around for four years. Some of that is changing with the advent of NIL but they built and maintained their system with consistency and commitment to a style of play. Medved doesn't have the luxury of a team that has played...

This can probably be absorbed into the Other Games thread as that takes shape over the next few days, but I've been watching the MIami (O)/Ohio game and that level of football looks like it's in a different universe than that of the Power Conferences. Teams look so slow.

Thanks for the synopsis. I was hoping to find the game either online or on the tube, but after checking in here I realized I would have to pay to watch and given the opposition I decided to forego the investment. It's obviously going to be an interesting year and at least out of the gate the...

Chuckie baby! Chuck baby! I hear you bought a new boat. I heard you got a small dinghy.

It's not just Raiola. It seems that every announcer is channeling the late Harry Caray with the over-the-top superlatives and/or histrionics on just about every play. A few years ago, I figured out that the entire sports universe and jockocracy had turned into professional wrestling.

PJ and his first wife did lose a child, so this hits home for him. All involved in setting this up did a wonderful job of providing comfort after a horrific experience.

Looks like we have an obvious candidate to run the Jett Sweep.

Pretty much where I am at. Northwestern has always been this somewhat odd team in that they look like plodders, but play faster than they look. Their RB1 looks pretty good, so D will have to step up there. Stone is a gamer at QB but he looks to be more grit than raw talent. The Wildcats look...

Cashman is just irrepressible. What a motor! Could see it when he played for the Gophers.

And I'm seeing this.
