Really torn between OSU and Penn State. Root for an entire state's worth of child rape enablers and apologists, or a team from Ohio????

Pat Mahomes attempted 88 passes tonight for Texas Tech. I don't even know how that is possible in a non OT game.

JMO but I don't see Gabriel making quite the crazy impact some of you do.

He's pretty raw and a bit awkward out there. Don't get me wrong he'll have some moments throughout the course of the season but I think he's behind right now from a basketball IQ standpoint.

Having said that, dude's clearly a high energy guy and can guard multiple positions... so there's definitely a need for that. His weak side recovery/help side D was extremely impressive last night. He made up a ton of ground and was much 'longer' than I thought seeing him up close.

- Monk's little hesitation/crossover & stop-on-a-dime pull up J from the stripe gave me a boner. He's as gifted a player we've had under Cal. The upside is mind boggling. Chad Ford better get his **** together because there is zero way he is a Top 15 talent. Maybe 2-3 in the Draft, IMO.
Hammered but agree 100%

Pac-12 North leaders: Washington, Washington State.
Pac-12 South leaders: Utah, Colorado.

Didn't see that coming (except maybe Washington).

Oregon and Mich State have fallen fast since being in the Playoffs. Same with Notre Dame.

Well, lookie here: hope for UK football! Haven't seen that for a while.

* MacGinnis. Damn. Aced it right down the middle. Stoops owes that kid money when he graduates.

* I'm impressed with Eddie Gran and Darin Hinshaw. Stephen Johnson is limited but Gran/Hinshaw managed to manufacture 292 yards from the passing game, based almost entirely on manipulating the running game/wildcat/moving the pocket to create opportunities where Johnson could succeed through the air.

It was not always pretty, but it is nice to see a UK offensive staff play to their personnel strengths and maintain a coherent, focused gameplan.

* CJ Conrad's receiving stats probably get hurt because he's such a good blocker. It seems like they keep him at HB much of the time as insurance against blitzes, etc. But that play in the first quarter where he had the seam and Johnson over-threw him had the makings of a Gronk-style run to the house.

* Benny Snell. :clap:

* Currently, the University of Kentucky Football team has a competent offensive line. This is a minor miracle.

* MSU is not a good football team, but Mullen is a good :football: coach. A win is a win. On to Columbia to keep bowl hopes alive.

-Soul changing win! All of the things occurred that normally result in a loss, but it wasn't to be. I was speechless in total euphoria the whole trip back 64 West. Absolute splendor!

-Hit up The Village Idiot prior to the game. The Korean chicken sandwich was rather chronic.

-Cubs bitches!

Since my normal seat mate sold his tickets to MSU fans, I had to move to change the mojo. Sat with a lurker and his wife, things started to change....but then they scored with 1:10 left, his wife thinks its over, they leave...imagine she heard about missing being there for the kick the whole way home. Puppies.

After the game I'm walking back to Jaimanth's when what do I spy bouncing my way, but an uber giddy Adrian and Brooks. They looked thirsty from the win, I cracked them open two fresh collides, and was treated the rest of the way home to Adrian rapping and dancing and Brooks playing BopGun on his phone. Holding it high in the air and proud, straight victory formation...and dropping what must have been some kind of jig every few steps...like some Riverdance ****. These boys were on cloud 9.

High times my Wildcat friends. High times.
