    Purdue beats Illini at Champaign, what the hell is going on?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobby_Hauck Bret should never have hired Bobby Hauck to be his D coordinator. Bobby Hauck was a briefly retired FCS head coach who hadn't been a defensive coordinator since, wait for it...ever. That's right, check Hauck's resume. He'd been a defensive position...

    This was probably always going to be a loss, but the concerning thing is

    I feel like we won in 2017 because we took some risks. We were never going to be able to "small ball" a win versus OSU, even at home.

    Did KF choose the wrong QB . . . again? Heck yes.

    Brown looks like the typical 90s/00s Big Ten QBs that Kirk loves - McCann/Christensen/Rudock/Petras/Brown. He can't help himself.

    Heck

    Hank Brown looks like every other QB in the mold of QBs that Kirk likes. Heck looks like every other QB in the mold of the QBs that Kirk should be starting, but never does unless pressured to do so.

    Was Kirk unaware the game was over?

    Yes, and there apparently was an exception, which was the losing team just walking off the field (like LSU in the Capital One Bowl).

    Wisky vs ND

    Yes. This seems weird to say, but to me wearing those are an indication of the team's philosophy of controlling the line of scrimmage. That O line that looks nothing the the Wisconsin O lines from the old days. They look like a MAC team O line.

    Wisky vs ND

    Year 4 for Fickell. That offense still looks like some Big 12 finesse-style b.s. that doesn't belong in the B1G.

    Looks like Mark Gronowski has a legit shot at making an NFL roster

    It's really tough for a guy like Gronowski. He isn't naturally tailored to be an NFL QB without a lot of refinement. That takes time, focus, and a coach with patience. But Gronowski probably has the work ethic to eventually get there. I think of players like a Steve Young or Rich Gannon -...

    IOWA picked to finish 8th in the B1G in Cleveland.com Preseason B1G Football Media Poll

    The SWARM is no more

    The brand name, the logo, and the general concept were all good. The "business model" was weak though. Begging for money and selling memberships didn't work. Should have been set up similar to Newman's Own, where they focused primarily on selling SWARM merch and all profits went to support...

    Omg why is the time set one hour ahead?!

    Like China, the U.S. should really switch to one time zone. I suggest we all switch over to standard universal "Jeb Time".
