Seems like a good get, hopefully he stays committed and can help continue the great play of the secondary. Offense is fun and all, but I love when my football teams have a great defense.

They look basically the same as I can remember when I had a Warrick Dunn jersey the year before they won the SB? Is there something special I'm missing? Nope, just well done for realizing their current ones were an atrocity, and going back to the ones that worked in the 90s. I'm not an 80s kid, so ...

Well done, Tampa. Well done.

There are some interesting graphs and data on the MN Department of Public Health website around COVID 19, if you're like me and like to look at things from an analytical/statistical view.

Our company and sounds like at least one other in MN that I know of went to 4 day work week and 80% pay.

Damn, that was an absolute snipe.

10 minutes in and haven’t seen this kind of talent/good hockey in a while. Wow

I had the same thought watching it. It really feels like this was the golden age of college hockey. At least in my lifetime.

Holy $h!t this is a fun game. So much talent on the ice (and so young for both teams)

No kidding, a lot of high end fire power on both sides. Arena is jacked up, fun to watch.

True... But at least we play "real" teams most of the time. Football plays the likes of Florida Atlantic, Tennessee Tech, Buffalo.... It's just really bad. There's just no real reward in CFB for playing good non conference teams early in the season. Well, there is, but the risk highly outweighs it,...

Very good high level discussion

Thanks for posting! That's pretty cool.

The obnoxiously long halftime needs to end. I'm sorry but I just don't care about seeing the top 11 players standing and waving on a stage. I guess it's better than some half assed lip synched musical performance, but just move it along.

This $h!t is so much more fun than an NFL game.

Holy crap. We seriously just tried to run the clock out and get to half time? With 1:50 to go?
You think Belichick/Brady, Payton/Brees, Carrol/Wilson are gonna do that?

Dude's got a way with words. And it feels real. It doesn't feel like a Brewster used car salesman type.

As disappointing as today was, I've never been more optimistic about Gopher football.

Stolen from r/CFB:

Nick Saban's record against Auburn is only 10-8.

All 10 wins were against an Auburn team that finished the year with 8 wins or less.

All 8 loses were against an Auburn team that finished the year with 9 wins or more.

I thought the Rose Bowl was free to choose whomever they wanted? If the B1G champion is in the CFP, then yes they can pick whoever they want.

Nope. They'd take Penn State in that scenario.
