The reason to target Fleck would not be for what he is as a coach, it would be for what you think the potential is of Drake Lindsey, Koi Perich, and company that he would bring with him. RTB won't fly at Mich, to the extent of changing uniforms. They would absolutely slap it on merch and maybe...

The Gary, Indiana Bears My guess is this is like Vikings threatening to move to Blaine, Bloomington, or Eagan

I'll take a wild crack at this one, stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Knee effusion. Basically the knee capsule produces too much synovial fluid, causes your joint to be swollen which limits range of motion and causes pain and discomfort. My wild guess is that he has been battling...

Just thinking back to that makes me chuckle. I know this place was homer-hole max because he was a one year mercenary for the Gophers, winning 7 regular season games ... but man that performance sure did shut everyone up. LOL Gardsy "don't let him see the field!" ... LOL! Would be wild if it...

ONeil probably won't play either. Interesting because we have a (defacto) rookie QB who's still trying to prove himself not a bust, even if he's pretending he's not trying, with a sub-standard OL. And then you have the Giants who don't want to win a game the rest of the year, yet the players...

What I'd really love more than anything for this season is for the Vikings to be the team that kept both the Lions and Packers out of the playoffs. Think that's possible if Packers lose out, Lions lose next two, and Cowboys win out (mainly depends on beating Chargers this week).

It's much easier to make winning plays by throwing short, quick passes to your star playmakers against bad defenses. He has made a few great throws, certainly. When a top 2 superstar is dropping your balls, when he wasn't dropping before ... nope, you lose that argument. He throws the ball too...

Think we're mostly on the same page. Are you able to find/provide some kind of documentation backing up what you say about it not being tiers anymore? You seem confident that that was a feature of the previous bowl cycle contract(s), so perhaps that's what I was thinking of. There will be a new...

Bold is the opposite scenario to the one I made up (where we have enough teams for all bowls, but for some reason some number of bowls get cancelled so we have too many teams) .... that said, and to your point in the first place, yes you are absolutely correct that the Big Ten would put a team...

If IU wins the national championship, Mark Cuban will not be on the field. He better damn well not be. He has no business being down there. He is not the "owner" of the team. There is no such thing in college football. And that's the whole point. He won't get to raise the trophy. He won't be...

The massive, plain and day blunder by KOC was .... why didn't you do this wholesale simplifying and quick release scheme that very clearly has been installed the last two weeks, back in Sept??? Not saying it would've worked out any better ... but at least it makes sense to pare down the offense...

Well, so far against two terrible defenses he has played better. Washington flatly gave up and did not want to keep playing after the first quarter. Game over in 2:45?? Good grief. Cowboy game was genuinely fun to watch. I can't help but smile any time the Vikings beat the Cowboys. McCarthy...

I'm not rooting for Texas Tech, was just speculating that might be the natty game. Will definitely be hoping that Bama beats IU

The conference treats those bottom three bowls as being on the same (last) tier, and so it views the last three teams (that go to those three bowls) as all being equivalent and interchangeable. So there is no such thing as one of those teams jumping the other. It was simple decisions based on...

They don't get any notoriety. Unless they take it upon themselves to make some video to let anyone who is listening know that they were the reason. Kinda selfish, but that's how these people are.

TV ratings = $$$ = Bowl Games Players will play if they're given game checks. Guaranteed. It will live on. Throw em a couple bones, watch em come running

@Some guy here's the hypothetical that would prove it. Say that we have exactly the standings we have this year. Now say that, for whatever [make up a reason], the Rate and Detroit bowls were cancelled. Couldn't secure the venue, doesn't matter. So that means the last bowl slot to fill is...

Yep, for sure. It's as close as he can got to "officially" mattering. Letting people know that he made it happen.

I disagree. I've read that article and it says exactly what I'm getting at here. To be an SEC bagman was to be like a spy. You were owed a huge debt of gratitude, but you could never be publicly known/acknowledged. It was always a gladhand and wink from a coach. Nothing formal and public...

Great question ... wonder if it has ever been attempted
