Weird ruling.
I'm happy with that ruling. They can be tough to watch on TV sometimes when it's all blue on blue. I do know I heard a coach say it takes a lot longer to review coaching tape for the same reason. It comes across as petty but it is what it is.
Butch Davis just got fired.
Saw that coming since there was a "board of trustees" meeting today.Quote:

I think I like those, especially how they incorporated the stripes on a modern look of a uniform.Quote:

Guess they really are the Oregon of the South when it comes to unis now. Fugly is one term that comes to mind.
Nike should be banned from making uniforms. :fp:
Talk about a scare. Browsing the headlines and I see.
Sooners admit major violations, seek probation
Fortunately it was just our basketball team.

The Iowa-Nebraska game has been dubbed the "Heroes Game". 1) if you are naming this matchup, why didn't you do it before Nebraska joined the Big 10? and 2)explain the meaning of "Heroes" in this game? I understand the Nike Kinnick connection...but the full explanantion....wow. :fp:
we may soon be hearing about auburn. :whistle: about damn time too

The schools are taking this "Heroes" tag seriously. They plan to recognize one Iowa citizen and one Nebraskan for an extraordinary act prior to each year's game. Friends, neighbors or co-workers can nominate people for the heroes distinction, and those chosen will be honored on the field during the game and will have their name and hometown etched on the Heroes Game trophy. The schools also plan to use proceeds from the game to benefit the Iowa and Nebraska chapters of the American Red Cross.
Good for the Hoosiers. But they need to fix their defense first and foremost.Quote:

Good to see a big time recruit go to a non-traditional "super power."Quote:

Anything beats Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl....
That should be changed to the Kraft Cheese & Macaroni Bowl :nod:
Yeah, that name is actually better than the Humanitarian Bowl. I mean, you have to be a Humanitarian to want to go to Idaho in December, so it fit, but this title is better.
Epic logo is epic!Quote:

As for the "Heroes" BS, it says "co-workers".
Maybe JB has a young lady he works with who is a "hero"?

LOL, stated concisely, well done.Quote:

What can I say ... never personally been a Stanley Jackson fan. He did well, but I was very happy when Germaine got his opportunities.Quote:
