    Bears moving to Indiana? šŸ˜†

    Yes that was awful. One of my NU Grad sons and several grandchildren were in the Lake Tahoe area skiing that day. Until we made phone connection, it was fearing the worst and hoping for the best.

    Is it too early for a Mojo Moose Sighting?

    Majestic Magical M<irage Magnified Mountains have to be a good omen for the year ahead as well! Located some 80 miles distant from the Anchorage Shore of Cook Inlet, the distant Alaska Range with its Active Mt Spurr Volcano appears larger than life due to refracted light creating the illusion...

    So if the "Home Team" wins the National Championship, Will they really be the National Champions?

    Agreed there were a few exciting playoff games but just as many duds.

    So if the "Home Team" wins the National Championship, Will they really be the National Champions?

    Hard to argue any of those points, but if Miami wins tonight, given their flawed record I guess a case could be made that they do not merit being National Champions.

    So if the "Home Team" wins the National Championship, Will they really be the National Champions?

    On a peripheral point, does anyone else sense that the time between the playoff games and the final game should be shortened to one week rather than two? The only plus I see is that it does extend the college football season one week longer.

    So if the "Home Team" wins the National Championship, Will they really be the National Champions?

    And in case anyone missed it, here is my video of the fighting Bull Moose that ended up getting broadcast on TV:

    So if the "Home Team" wins the National Championship, Will they really be the National Champions?

    Read an interesting article suggesting that Indiana should not be required to play an additional game to become the National Champions. The point made that they remain undefeated contrasted to Miami's record.

    Army-Navy, What a Game!

    NIL has gone well beyond its intended purpose of compensating players for their name, image and likeness. Can NCAA reign it back, or to keep with the equestrian terminology, get the horses back in the barn?

    Army-Navy, What a Game!

    If there was ever a game that lived up to the hype, this was it. In honor of the prevailing Midshipmen: Some of my archived Navy related photos in honor of their win today: A matchbook from my Dad's time spent training on Chicago's Navy Pier during World War II:

    Bowl possibilities

    I am aware that one of the "in the know" posters on the pay board claims inside info that we are headed to Detroit, but I am encouraged that NU bowl guru Hailtopurple.com reports that Phoenix remains in play. A lot might depend on the opponent. The bowl committee will be looking for the...

    Bowl possibilities

    I know it doesn't work that way, but we do have the tie breaker with regard to having won against Minnesota so by rights we should be placed above them in the bowl picking order getting us to Phoenix rather than Detroit. At least a talking point for Jackson in making NU's case for Phoenix.
