Have we talked about the line for this weekend? WTF? Vegas keeps opening low on ND Maybe I am dense and missing the point	Grantland	2025-10-14, 11:54	64	2
weather looking questionable Damn it Another 2 Hour lighting delay? we typically play Southern Cal well in bad weather Was at that game with a SoCal buddy of mine… I was present. Homeless people are wearing Michigan gear	Jay	2025-10-14, 10:13	371	6
Damn, D'Angelo dead at 51 Black Messiah is just as good fuck	BPH	2025-10-14, 09:37	256	2
OT: Admin and Faculty responses to Trump's Higher Ed Compact Good find, thanks for forwarding From my experience, that 90% number is way too high. One source on that Explain what you mean by (b) please. A few things, and agreed, I'm probably conflating a bit They all need to reject it!	HCE	2025-10-14, 09:06	302	6
One interesting "rumor" on the PSU front I still don't understand why Alabama never went all in ... heard a funny rumor last night Keep our fingers crossed. I could see it. Kelly is an upgrade over Franklin Maybe, but not unequivocally.	Bryan (IrishCavan)	2025-10-14, 08:57	841	6
USC 2025 Preview do you think Maiava is any better than Carson Beck? Beck is way more battle tested at this point Maiava also not much of a dual threat nicely done also really great getting these on Tuesday thanks I also noticed and smirked at that Some personnel stuff that I think helps us thanks! I think he wants you believe there's always something quick might be whistling past the graveyard I think our D at current level can generate a takeaway or 2 Gollum was pretty unhappy with their defense The post-Harbaugh fade is happening faster at UM Moore showed up to their presser And they stopped knowing other team's plays They tend to end their own drives, too I think we can hold them to low 20s Agree on the RB.

Otting—one of the last Hiestand recruits From what I recall Correct. There were videos of him dunking in basketball	Dallasdomer	2025-10-14, 05:56	434	2
Film Guy analyzes CJ Carr tape I enjoy watching his stuff... FilmGuy network How many invented words? Questionative? AWS wants to put guys like this out of business I will be very curious about this. It will not work Yeah, I don't care to hear the AI breakdown. I could do it I'm virtually certain that's what they want him to do -- think he’s dead on about how much they’re giving CJ Interesting that they might have taken RPOs though	Jeremy (WeIsND)	2025-10-13, 15:53	2252	11
Rhule might not go to Penn State I didn't realize they were opting out of this new era. They opted out of the previous era. "Turning a blind eye toward" = "Opting out" I don't see why PSU is interested in him, if they are -- It sets up as a no-win situation for Rhule He makes $8 million a year at NU -- Coaching searches used to be a reflection Every one of these teams should offer Saban 5/$100 mil Nostalgia and pedigree. If I were a PSU fan, I'd rate a Rhule hire 4/10. Laying the groundwork Always crying about something. And JoePa. The White Sox of the Big Ten I was going to say that (complimentary)	BPH	2025-10-13, 13:18	2548	15

Observer: fun article on long-running tailgates I've been to more '68 tailgates than I can count Ha! Me too	Jay	2025-10-13, 10:38	407	2
Per the ISD Depth Chart & notes: Craig is out for the year. Is Elijah Page healthy for SC? Paige (LT) and O'Connor (C) are both likely out That kid has had some lousy injury luck For this week, you play your next best center. Period. I Forgot about the bye week. This. Otting should be fairly plug-and-play He can go block USC's 6 foot 8 MLB. Darn it. When can Jagush play? No one thinks he'll be back this year I do wonder whether that means any playoffs? Brice said next year Maybe it's just typical coach BS yep, Freeman announced it first thing today	Chris	2025-10-13, 09:50	2716	14
South Shore Line Albie, make sure they are not working on track. Not recent for a game of this magnitude	Albie	2025-10-13, 09:18	259	2
Who would like some Monday morning CJ Carr porn? I watched the game for the first time on replay last night Rewatched just the 1st half last night. at one point Garrett sang circus music He just needs to drop "into the meat grinder". I doubt this is kept as a stat for "records" -- maybe not that choice of word er, enticing tweets is what I meant to say I recoil any time it is used Quite the assumption you're making. Chesterton Lep just rolled over in his grave Everyone misses the Porn Salutes One of a kind... No idea how to post this Wow, great memories Imagine Lep armed with the powers of AI Amazing. I really miss those. Duly noted	BPH	2025-10-13, 09:03	2229	17
What was the pre-game scuffle on Saturday about? no idea, but it was getting chippy out there all game long Doeren looks perpetually sour on the sideline	Bryan (IrishCavan)	2025-10-13, 07:28	328	2
Hollywood Smothered and CJ Bailey's Bad Day The uniform thing was intentional? Getting all his yucks in before he's let go in December. Doeren also said in the postgame	HumanRobot	2025-10-13, 06:09	738	3
On the short yardage stuff Rewatched the game today Thr Minchey/Buchner package gets my vote. No thanks on Buchner That's a fantastic analogy The problem with that is I'm ok with a package steal this play from Purdue Even Carr throwing to an RB or TE One possible reason: I wondered about this as well Weis always had a ton of great goal-to-go plays Throw it to Samardzija! Marcus Freeman appearance in that clip reel If it's a Kevin Rogers offense, throwback to the far side. even basic stuff I'm with this re Buchner Put Buchner in at WR in short yardage, maybe? can those guys do anything Carr can't in short yardage? Get hurt and not tank our season? BuchWild Buchrecat They were in a bear front a lot too. 1000 lbs of tush Peacock not opposed to an RPO rollout on short yardage The first one should have been a sneak I like a -palooza call more than Minchey or Buchner I've seen enough of Buchner in the redzone for this lifetime here's my thinking If those are your parameters It’s about threat, not execution. Freeman said they had shown a look where they were Is the lack of QB pull due to decision making? He's plenty capable. Maybe they are saving it He'd did it in the 4th quarter. Thought it was strange Love in particular seems to be suffering	Jeremy (WeIsND)	2025-10-12, 15:52	4777	36
Just got back from vacation. Well done everyone! (Edit) No major injuries apparently -- I think Craig will miss some time Per SB Tribune	Busco21	2025-10-12, 15:16	681	3
We're 13th Updated scoreboard/playoff watching this is awesome stuff Shockingly high on Indiana it's all about remainind schedule The B1G really just kind of sucks. Thanks. I think you are right on the rules I know you have to keep them in -- I’d put a few Jaybucks on Nebraska, with odds, of course Navy is 30th Next to USC, Pitt is the most dangerous game -- Yep the game with the Yinzers scares me the mostest	IrishGuard	2025-10-12, 12:03	1890	11
PSU fired Franklin. Has anyone else heard that Urban Meyer is sniffing around? He's the only person who makes this make sense. Saw a rumor about Michigan St. and him. JF is a peter-principle coach, yet firing him now was stupid Fleck’s a good idea actually. Fleck does seems like a decent fit Fleck has turned out to be pretty average He's decidedly mid. I'll post this every time this fraud's name comes up. He already has the sweater and tie. I don't get the value in doing it now Ton of rumors that Adidas was behind this move. $300 million I don't understand why Adidas cares? It is a rumor. Doesn't make much sense when you flesh out I was wondering... If true, it should give us all pause It gets worse Hey. I'm with you. This Big whatever development with VC $ I'm at Radford, and my wife teaches at VT T-Minus 5 years until a Penn State debt crisis Too B1G to fail? Me neither. They can'y hire Rhule mid-season, can they? A pocket deal would make more sense Would anyone notice? The irony for me is that... What would it take to get Cignetti? I don’t think they can get Cignetti I think it shows how silly this is. has to be related Guffaw The H is for honeypot. It would actually be a weird karmic circle This could be their Solich moment -- They’re going to spend $100m to replace Franklin with Ruhle Rhule is 17-14 at Nebraska -- turns out Ruhle has a comically low buyout I read that -- Yes A subtle econ point in your post that most miss Are they going to force him to keep the coordinators? It's totally crazy. He's an ass and not an elite coach They (probably correctly) determined he wasn't the guy Do not underestimate the hubris He’s probably sub-Kelly, but not by much That's the other question. The "hot wives" comment always bothered me I think ND 2016 is comparable. This is like firing Kelly in 2017 They're probably looking at the Cignetti model It always bothered me An on brand and apt comment! Didn’t take long for Freeman’s name to be voiced The mere notion is hilarious Kirby Smart That was my next guess I am shocked Saban & Belichick haven’t been mentioned. Or Gruden! He was mentioned by some dude on Sirius I'm confident that Freeman wouldn't take that job -- He's a PSU alum What if Lots of PSU rumors about Adidas This is really bad news for Billy Napier Honestly, Franklin makes a lot of sense for UF. Not UF. Franklin would be perfect at UNC He would tank in the SEC I can't believe Wisconsin didn't move first. Maybe they’ll fire Fickell and hire Franklin I don't view Wisky as in that tier They will regret this Hoping for a Nebraskaning. The last 15 years of Joe Pa were already Nebraskaesque I forgot about this... Cig is the hot name Wisconsin would be smart to hire Diaz. They could end up getting Penn State grad Matt Rhule Not an upgrade We don't think it's an upgrade hairline joke karma kicking in They did join the B1G about the same time as Nebraska Huh??? Holy crap, you are right. His replacement is going to make runs at Fran Brown who will probably finish 5-7? FWIW, as I'm sure you know they were 3-1 Regardless of what perhaps they should do Agreed. Rhule already being linked to the job It has been a slow climb for Rhule -- womp womp +14 Life comes at you fast Holy shit Cignetti ain’t going anywhere $72m guaranteed You can't convince me that in 2025 it's Cignetti is 65. He's grabbing the bag NOW What are you talking about? A. Didn't really remember his IU extension At what point does a raise not matter? And he’s making almost as much as Franklin was For $15 mil, will we see mid-season coaching changes? Can we name a more dramatic fall from grace? got to be something happening behind the scenes Wonder if Seider knew “something?” with ears Didn’t see that one coming. If ND doesnt make the playoff … how much slack would you/ND Depends on the losses Tough crowd if ND crapped out and lost out this year, I'd proclaim this is statistically impossible… PSU isn't just losing. They're not going to tank, though Incredible turn of events $49 million plus, per ESPN	domer.mq	2025-10-12, 11:04	39722	118
He's shifty as hell Is he really better than no No idea. Partly wonder if it was an effect... “if you can hit him really hard a few times”	domer.mq	2025-10-12, 10:24	856	4
Play after the fake punt? It's a heads up move. That was infuriating “Ball not appropriately spotted” The failure to call an obvious incompletion what it was	Pete	2025-10-12, 09:36	709	4
