I just saw where LSU just lost their OLB for the rest of the season, dismissed because of disciplinary reasons.

And what I refer to as 'Sherman Syndrome'. It's not as bad as in the 1980's but when I played tournaments on teams North of Delaware we were always called 'Yankees'. One dude actually got angry because we created what is known as the 5th infielder. We pulled one outfielder to play in the infield. This had to be done because composite bats are shaved or rolled which allows the ball to get through the infield much faster. The coach from a team from Virginia said "It's cheating". Funny, his players were tampering with bats which is cheating but he accused us of cheating because we neutralized the bats by adding one infielder. It forced the batters to actually have to hit gaps which they couldn't. We won. I told the dude "We also throw to our tight ends". He didn't like the comment.
Oh, I wish I was in Dixie...
DC is a symptom, not the cause. The cause is basic voter stupidity and economic ignorance.

As long as Joe Burrow is playing LSU has a shot at the NC.

Well the Ducks did the committee a favor last night...
I assumed it would be a pretty close game, the Ducks have a history of losing in Arizona. Offense was totally anemic for 2.5 quarters. Herbert looked way below average and the secondary gave up way too many big plays to ASU receivers.
Civil War next week against the Beavers, then on to the Championship game against Utah, a game I expect them to lose.
Looks like the Ducks are headed to Alamo Bowl against the B12 #2 team

Tickets to the 2020 tOSU game should be easier to get.

Autzen is quite a bit smaller than Buckeye fans are accustomed to. Somewhere just under 60k.
Eugene is a great town and well worth a visit, if anyone is considering making the road trip

Whoa nellie! Just a few hours out from the Granddaddy of them All...
Ducks are +2.5. I think they start slow but come back in the second half and win by 8-10 points.
Duck defensive line and linebacker group are going to be tested today. Their ability to maintain gap discipline will be the difference between a win and a loss

I was burned on Utah thinking they'd play better and they did not perform.  Oregon is better than Utah but Wisconsin is pretty good team.

Our playoff game and likely this Rose Bowl will show case the classic/traditional B1G vs SEC/P12 match up. The B1G team controls the flow of the game and then... BOOM, a sprint draw goes for 86 yards, a gimmick jump pass goes the distance, etc... In other words I expect the same today. Oregon late, 35-31---via a few busted plays. Wiscy will win TOP and every other meaningful stat sans the final score.  Â
Besides UM, who is the other B1G team playing today? Minny?
