  1. nobody has scored 30 on iowa this year or in 2019 (2020 doesnt count), but in 2018 you gave up more than 30 points three times.
  2. i think the 2/3 game is in dallas, which would be an incentive to out ok state in the 3 spot.
  3. i like the 2 year out because it gives him motivation to keep his numbers up for a larger payday too.
  4. they saved it for ohio state and whupped em.
  5. i think its a good deal for detroit. he's got an out after 2 years? so its really just a two year deal? good defense and power. but the .290 obp is not going to be pretty. since its not my money, i would rather have correa because he is the far superior player. but baez for $20 million a year is less than i thought he would go for in this market, and if its only for two years, that's a bonus too.
  6. if michigan beats iowa, georgia will be kryptonite for them. that defense should be very very hard for michigan to move the ball on. but first thing's first: have to beat iowa. if you look at iowa's season, michigan should beat them easily. but iowa is sneaky. they play that dang cover 2 and they are positionally sound. they wont make the undisciplined stupid mistakes like osu did. theyre much better coached. they have a good defensive line, so it might be harder for michigan to run. on offense, they have poor tackles but a great center. they have poor qb play. they are sound, but dont have playmakers. michigan's ends should be a problem for them. look, they almost lost to northwestern. they were outgained or close to it in almost every game they played. they got lucky penn state's qb got hurt or that was a loss. they got outgained 2-1 against iowa state and still won. if michigan doesnt turn the ball over, they should win by two touchdowns.
  7. great win. a little lucky, but that's ok. as much shit as i give ras, its obvious they trust him as a defensive center. he's out there in a lot of key defensive situations and he performed well tonight in them. also, good to see zadina score, but he - like ras - is becoming a better, more complete player. neither of them seem likely to be stars or to live up to their draft position, but they are looking like they can be valuable role players.
  8. deshawn hand was released? only question is how it took this long.
  9. finally. zadina. nice finish.
  10. there's a party in my tummy....so yummy! so yummy! that show was good. poor biz markie. rip.
  11. that cub fan said he wasnt going to be a cubs fan anymore after sinclair broadcasting and the ricketts support of trump, so take his opinion with a grain of white sox salt. 🙂
  12. as polarizing as iglesias and castellanos. people will complain about him dogging it and making mental errors when he screws up a play by trying to make a spectacular highlight play on a routine grounder, or just messing up a play because he isnt paying attention. most cubs fans i know are like "good luck with that roller coaster." i expect 250/300/450. i hope for 290/350/500. he's got power and speed and defense, but he'll swing at everything. he'll drive you nuts.
  13. the one caveat is that all these guys are young with room to grow. the caveat to the caveat is that none of of them appear to be the high level athletes who you might expect big time growth from in the future. i think cade's shooting will be fine in the long term. it was all world in college and should be again in the pros. ive never been on the bey train. he's a strong player. i like that. but he's an sub athletic 3 and d guy. there's value in that, but he's a role player not a key player on a winning team. same with stewart. love the motor and the strength. love the attitude. but he's a center who cant really defend the rim or run the rim on offense becuase - again - he's not a big time nba athlete and he's small for his position. great role player. not the type of guy who starts on a winning team UNLESS he develops a reliable outside shot. then he could be very valuable. killian's shooting has improved (sample size alert) but he's still not getting to the rim and creating contact. again, he's young and has room to grow. im actually more bullish on his future than bey's. i think killian can get to the rim and has the chance to get stronger and take contact. bey appears to be more of a finished product. the rest of the team is just a bunch of nba stragglers getting minutes. again, theyre really young. i think were in line for another top 5 pick. hopefully #1 again.
  14. i'm surprised. i thought baez would get a lot more. as dubious as i am about baez moving forward, that's a good deal for what he was thinking of getting. he's going to be the most polarizing tiger on the team.
  15. yo gabba gabba was awesome.
  16. we dont know if he was interested in usc or not. they got a guy with a better resume. like you, i heard he wanted to stay in the midwest.
  17. fickell could go to the pros too.
  18. if the osu job surprisingly comes open he can always quit and take it. nd is one of the prime jobs in the sport. if he waits too long he could end up stuck at cincinnati, where he would be one or two injuries/bad seasons away from obscurity, and he's about to be increasing his competition level by going to the big 12. strike while the iron is hot. unless he knows day will be leaving. day going pro is always a possibility. there are plenty of stupid pro teams out there (bears on line one).
  19. take the nd job.
  20. that wouldnt be too horrible.
  21. lynn is all aboard the andrelton simmons train.
  22. bergevin out in montreal. marchand suspended three games. plus ca change...
  23. apparently usc is buying a $6 million house for him in LA. so a two bedroom one bath condo.
  24. ND won't take urban. he's too toxic right now. ND only takes toxic personalities when they're losing (like hiring lou holtz) and then once they start winning they get on their moral high horse and proclaim how they just need a great moral leader as coach (like getting rid of holtz when he complained about not being able to get randy moss into school) and then hire ty willingham (cause he's black and so well spoken) until he sucks. then when they start losing they hire the "next big thing" and let him be corrupt and an ass hole and kill kids (brian kelly) but they dont care cause theyre winning. they've been on a winning streak so now they'll get on their moral high horse again and hire matt campbell or luke fickell. they wont touch urban.
  25. crazy!!!!! fickell will go to nd for sure, unless he thinks ryan day will go to the nfl.
