    Because of Frost's ties, it would be a hit indeed. I still find it amazing that Nebraska hiring a coach from Central Florida counts as a home-run hire.

    They refused to shake his hand at the flip. Fuck Kansas.

    I joked about this when Iowa beat Ohio State ... which Buckeye has ties to gambling?

    After Purdue made it look easy in Kinnick Stadium today, the Hawkeyes' blowout of Ohio State is even harder to explain.

    Was the fix in? I saw it happen in the mid-1990s in Kinnick, although that was Northwestern intentionally fumbling to make sure they lost by enough.

    And the Kansas defense has cheap shotted him at least once.

    Navy played the exact type of game it needed to upset Notre Dame ... until their last play call.

    Down 24-17, fourth and five at the Irish 20 yard line, about two minutes to play. They've had success with the option (more or less) the entire game. But with the game on the line, they go for the trick play, halfback pass to a tight end. The running back never gets his feet set and the throw is awful. Notre Dame wins.

    I'll be curious to hear what coach Niumatalolo says about that play call. Maybe he's giving Army something to prep for ...

    I can't blame them. He likes to grab his junk in public, and I'm sure he hasn't washed his hands.

    The first time I saw the coin flip video I thought Mayfield was trying to shake one of the little kid's hands and got dissed.

    Eh, they weren’t likely to run for 5 yards, and their QB had completed three passes all day. It was as good a chance as anything, assuming it’s a play they’ve worked on and felt confident with.

    This disrespect the opponent stuff seems more common this season.

    How do the millennials feel about Gen App'ers dissing Mayfield?

    My ears almost fell off when it was announced Brady Quinn is one of the commentators on the Fox broadcast of Cal-Stanford. Gosh, that takes me back. Seems like only yesterday this board was kicking the shit out of him for his quarterbacking.
