You are what your record says you are
If I didn't know any better I'd say Thompson threw the 2H of the game. He was in control the 1H. Completely clueless in the 2H. And it wasn't that much about NW making adjustments. Weird.

They also started playing guys at wr who hadn't played in the 1h, including the guy who dropped the final pass. The loss of vokolek at TE was huge.

I didn’t see the stats. No Trey Palmer and 1st TD catch guy?

Very good player, hurt his ankle. He said it wouldn't keep him out, but it didn't look too good.

Off and on from what I saw. Washington dropped the first pass of the drive that should have been an easy 15 yds to get em going.

The 09 team was a QB away from winning the national title.

Yea and the 2007 KU team was 1 regular season win away from a natty
You know what both have in common? It didn’t happen.

To be clear I wasn't advising a side one way or the other.
It's a lot of points for sure.

It wasn't a response to you specifically. OSU usually comes out of the gate impressively, 23-8-2 ATS in game one the last 33 years, though just 1-1-1- under Day.
That concerns me, but the power ratings really say this line should be about -10. Clemson covered this number against ND in '18, but UGA and Bama couldn't in '19 and '20, respectively.

Yes. Word on the street is that Trev wanted to fire him, the boosters said no, run it back once more with some coaching changes, and wait for the buyout to drop. I think now his only hope is to win em all in September and that looks extremely unlikely based on what I saw from our run game and our defense.

Im still amazed NW racked up 500 yards of offense! I thought they could play w them but didn’t expect that be how it happened, lol. Martinez no longer there to take the blame for all the close losses, only one person left and it prob the guy who might as well have turned it over from the sideline when he went for that onside kick!! I didn’t see any the 1st half, or much till late, Thompson had really good numbers (other than the picks, another neb staple that apparently didn’t leave w Martinez) but by time I started watching he seemed shaky. Frost pretty much has to beat Ou at this point doesn’t he?

I don't think Pelini would've been able to stick around for long regardless. Just not a guy I see as someone who would've evolved with the game on and off the field.
Different role of course but his most recent performance at LSU was wretched.
It's not like Neb sent Nick Saban packing.

Pelini was a train wreck the last couple of years. He was trying to get fired. His defense also was trending down a decent amount after he lost Callahan's players (Suh, Amukamara, etc).
I remember the Iowa PSU game last year at Iowa. I had bet Iowa, think -4 or something. Thought it was actually an easy play. Well PSU came out and marched up and down the field on Iowa like a knife through hot butter. Think it was 14-0 or maybe worse. Had already chalked up as a loss.
Then McSorley got hurt and went out. Never seen a game change like that. The PSU backup QB couldn't play a lick, I mean he was beyond bad. Iowa went on to win and I think cover.
Can you see why you want the back up LOL
I think the line was -1 or so...
Clifford was passing all over them before the injury...
Had Iowa -1 I believe and PSU tt under 20.5?
Either way... lucky ass wins, no doubt.
Lol sure you're right on the line. I just remember as i was watching it infold thinking psu was going to blow them out of the stadium. Then the backup literally couldn't play. Lucky indeed and probably the poster child for they call a wrong side winner.

Yeah, it was brutal. I was fading Iowa pretty aggressively at that point.

Mickey will be tough to beat, I think.

Hit Bucks TT over 38 -115 for 2 units. Hard to see ND holding them under 40 in this one with the way the Buckeyes can score, I believe in this offense and I expect a clean pocket for Stroud today. I am also on the game over 58 BIG.
Prop wise I'm on #32 Henderson Ovah 93.5 RUSH as I expect a bunch of touches in a high-stakes game and #18 MHJr over 82.5 REC as the Rose Bowl game was just scratching the surface for what we see out of him. I am also expecting Marvin will benefit from ND rolling a safety or otherwise trying to double JSN.
Good luck today boys.
May also jump on South Dakota State as I could see them giving Iowa problems...

Bump. Set. Shuma!
Lots going on there with Corn trying to erase last week but even NFL teams (except the Saints this year) get their byes after playing in Europe. Not gonna touch it but +32 is tempting.
