    Nova beats Denver, Michigan beats Hopkins

    There is no way JHU is missing the tournament. Not a chance. Maryland ... yes. Their at-large is far from assured.

    Maybe the 1999 Cincy model is the way to go.

    UC would not have won it all. UC lost a mid-February regular season home game against Temple in the 1999-00 season, a game that exposed their flaws. Even w/ Kenyon they weren't mentally tough against teams that played hard-nosed D and got them into a rock-fight that forced them to grind...

    OT: Rutgers undergrads represent 49 of 50 states

    One of the 1st people I met as a freshman at Penn State was a fellow frosh from Rawlins, Wyoming. He was, for 2 of his 4 years there, literally the only Wyoming-native undergrad at the school. Wyoming's a beautiful place, but it's quite a long way from the northeast.

    Barkley's comments about RU

    I think he was trolling Carlin as opposed to trolling Rutgers. But who knows. PSU and Rutgers degrees are not materially different from one another. Throwing Maryland into his comments was kind of funny, though.

    Backlash has reportedly killed Schiano's chances to land Tennessee job

    Probably true ...... but that's a terrible look for the AD in itself. It takes 2 seconds of "research" to learn that Schiano once coached at PSU.

    OT: Britt McHenry

    She's trying to get a full-time gig on Fox News (she currently appears there from time-to-time). Simple as that.

    Lehman > Matt Millen

    Well... Chuck Long has only called 1 game this year. Leman at least gets a (3rd-tier on BTN, admittedly) game every week. Last year, Long had the 3rd-tier games and Leman was rather rarely seen.

    Lehman > Matt Millen

    Lehman's good ..... at least BTN has seemed to move him above Chuck Long in the pecking order. Still too low. Millen ... ugh.

    Penn St no show for anthem at Ryan Field

    As I said --- I get it. ALL PSUers wear the scarlet letter. Fair enough.

    Penn St no show for anthem at Ryan Field

    You know the difference. You're not dumb: (1) OJ = actually indicted for a crime. (2) Any of the PSU players who didn't come out for the national anthem Saturday = none of them were indicted for a crime such as failure to report child abuse. But I get it. All PSUers get to wear the scarlet...

    Penn St no show for anthem at Ryan Field

    Many games that I've been too --- you don't see both teams on-field for the anthem. Teams have their routines (PSU under James Franklin comes out late - that's his particular routine) and it won't be changed based on when the home team band wants to play the anthem. The anthem does seem to...

    Analytics revolution trickles down to college football

    Exactly. It is pretty much that simple. Outs are the most important thing to avoid in baseball - after all, once you're at 3, you're done for the inning. Likewise, possessions are the most precious commodity in a football game. You generally only get 12 possessions a game. Obviously, a...

    Frazier's 1st at bat in Yankee stadium - hits into triple play!

    Officially, No RBI for Frazier on the play. I wonder if a batter has ever recorded an RBI on an at-bat that also resulted in a triple play? It would have to be a pretty crazy scenario. I could see one somewhat realistic scenario where it could happen: bases loaded fly out to RF, runner on 3rd...

    Change to B1G-FCS scheduling policy

    So which MEAC team is Rutgers going to schedule in 2021? I'll guess North Carolina A&T.

    BTN's Dienhart: Here are my top 25 Big Ten games of 2017

    I watched the game too. I watched a game where --- if one excludes the 3 kneeldowns at the end and a play where PSU lost 25 yards because of a snap over the punter's head (that was a "lucky" play, a lucky one for OSU of course!) --- PSU gained more yards per play than OSU did!
