Head Coach Scott Frost

The 6 win requirement for bowl games is based on having a winning record with a 12 game season. Obviously that's morphed into occasionally allowing 6-7 or 5-7 in some rare situations. In the event of a 10 game season a winning season would be 5-5 or better, so if bowls happen that's the way they would look at it even if some other teams have 12 game seasons. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowl_eligibility

I think Mich St is going to suck. I think Maryland is going to suck. I want a rematch against Indiana with a healthy QB + team that wants revenge. Out of the four teams that we're currently not playing I want Michigan the least. But I do agree this conversation more fun than arguing over the severity of Covid though.

You would think that after sending this many ambiguous tweets about decommitting he would feel awkward about actually going to Tennessee

Pour one out for the SEC teams that will actually have to play each other.

His dad played in the NFL 8 years. He can be worse than his dad and still have an awesome college career.

This would mean one more game against the B10. Would love a rematch against Indiana or an easy win over Maryland...So we'll probably play Michigan.

Dylan McCaffrey waited his turn at Michigan to play and Luke will still have the potential to start for two seasons, so I think he'll stay in the probable event of being beat out by Martinez. I think a more likely beat out leading to a transfer would be post Martinez between Luke and Logan. If Luke wins, not a lot of QBs are looking to stay 4 years to play 1, so Logan probably leaves. If Logan wins, I guess we might be able to talk Luke into being a WR or something, but I bet he leaves.

I guess it makes sense that he's leaning towards a school with warm outdoor practices.

It's kind of amazing to think that we thought with a freshman converted TE at center, losing the leading rusher and WR that there wouldn't be any kind of regression.

I could totally see this being coach Ferentz's last year. Somewhat similar to Urban Meyer situation with seemingly little blow back preseason and instead a quiet departure at the end.

At 6' 6" and 300+ pounds both are pretty huge gets

I never felt great about the guy. The way he quit on his team when he was at Wisconsin rubbed me the wrong way. Especially because he's from the state of Wisconsin, so you would think being a hometown hero would make it easier for him to show some loyalty to that brand. He is talented though.

Does Les Miles name bother you? should be Fewer Miles

23:26 Why do you have a picture of just lake Superior in your apartment?

Bigcat, the guy who does this, went to wisconsin. Would be surprised if he picked a big10 school that's not wisconsin.

I have a somewhat nuanced and obscure fear about the situation: Martinez will be better but then will get slightly injured and a 70% Martinez is worse than a 100% McCaffrey, but we'll stick it out with Martinez hoping he'll play up to his initial higher ceiling. And we'll just be that much worse off because we're afraid to put Luke in. I could totally see us doing something like that.

The crazy part is i'm not sure if that would be "By Bobinson" or "Bondale Bobinson"

I get that it seems over the top but you're basically telling the kids that if they want to have a legit shot at valedictorian you can't be in band, take extra gym classes, take electives like robotics etc. The class above me in high school a girl won out valedictorian because she took a special pass/fail gym class over the summer, only because if it was during the year it would have been only worth 4.0. The people she beat out took it during the year did everything else right (not take band, not take unnecessary electives, maximum study halls, etc) but their GPAs were still deluded because they weren't strategic enough to take the special pass/ fail gym over the summer like she was. Seemed like a silly way to determine valedictorian.

There is going to be football. There was always going to be football. It has nothing to do with football for football's sake and everything to do with the potential trashing of every affected market when the economy is already hot garbage.

My main goal for Wandale is that we have enough dudes on offense to spread the ball around enough so he doesn't get killed again halfway through the season

I would certainly hope our offense is better this year. It took a step back in like every metric from the 2018 season.

I think Omar or whoever the best new wide receiver should be. It could be like 0, that's how many people can guard him.

Not just Good... Good Enough.

Meh. I think helps the more established programs because they already have a working system. They already have good teams, so it makes it harder for other teams to catch up. But I think it really hurts teams with new coaches and coordinators. So I think we're in the middle.

Should kids who go to Tennessee still get paid if their mascot is a volunteer?
