It was an interesting hypothesis, so I dug into it over lunch (slow day). One year hypothetical 2 game decrease, one year basically no change. Thought putting some numbers behind it would be interesting. I do think that playing tOSU, Michigan, and Penn State every year year after year in the...

I'm not claiming anything: 2023 Northwestern - failed to show up forth fourth quarter and overtime Illinois -- was unable to stop the backup QB who came in on 4th down and long on their own 15 Purdue -- completely unprepared to face a then 2-7 Purdue squad needing only one win to become bowl...

For this exercise to work, we need to swap an East team to replace s in the west. Michigan State or Indiana are the closest, and keeping Michigan State with Michigan, Indiana would move to the west that would be an imbalance n 2021, but basically a wash in 2022 based on their records that...

Do we lose a lot of winnable games because we aren't prepared or Fleck doesn't trust his team? Yes. 5 in the last two seasons but consistently in every season he's been coach we've failed to show up in games and even make an effort to win. As for being close, showing up for less than 17 minutes...

3rd time I've seen it called this year, but the way the ref in our game phrased it was different. First time since the throat slash back in the 80's (I think where the rule originated)

Simple math. Simple math. Current roster limit 120. 100 numbers available (0-99) I believe you can't have two players with the same number on the field at the same time - usually number duplication is one each O and D, although I had a class with a walk on my freshman year and he had the same...

Whining about officiating when you win is worse than when you lose. It was a good game. We played well. We had more than a few go our way. They missed more than one hikd or foul committed against us. We also had several non calls go our way, including what could have been called PI against...

I hope this morning finds your son doing well. If no one told you, one of a child's jobs is to scare the bejesus out of you on a regular basis.

that puts this into perspective. Here's hoping you stay safe and dry. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Like you l, celebrating a win. It was an exciting win and further proof that with a team capable of playing the way they did last night, WTF on the 2nd half of the Iowa game and the 1st half of the Michigan game? My concern has never been that we lose, it's that the team is not consistently...

A veritable murderer's row of football teams. The "funny" thing is with a better coach, they'd be 6-0/5-1 Glad PJ finally figured out how to put his team in position to win and play for more than 15 minutes in a B1G game. The Michigan loss is all the more "on him" as he is wont to say after...

I hope we get this officiating crew for all of our remaining games.

If we had been prepared against NC, Iowa and Michigan like we were tonight, we'd be a 6-0 team. Great game by the team tonight. Very excited for them. First time in almost 2 years I didn't fall asleep during the game. Exciting game and win.

A speedo and a smile.....

Hence the comment Moore couldn't out PJ PJ. When did that drive happen? Roughly 3/4 of the way through the game, right? And that drive to go to 24-10. That drive was 14 plays 76 yards took about 5 minutes, right? We used a little tempo on this drive. Then held them, figured out a few key...

It's time to admit that Moore can't out PJ, PJ. Closer than it should have been. Michigan let up and we took advantage of it. This type of game only serves to further the myth of PJ Fleck's "ability". We were totally unprepared for today's game. If we showed up in the first half, we might...

Except the missed several blatant penalties against us on the two TD drives that got us back in it.

How PJ our STs screwed the pooch. Again
