Looks like Bo had seats in section 4L...

The Facebook post appeared to be about the Bronco fans. So he's even bothered by criticism of teams he's just a fan of.

I don't get it. How did Kenny watch Broncos/Buffs games growing up? Didn't he ever yell at a player for fumbling or a coach for calling a run up the gut on 3rd and 3? That's part of the fun. If you play for a popular sports team, surely you know that millions of people are doing this at their TVs every single time a particularly bad play takes place. Twitter now makes it possible for the message to actually reach the players involved. But what's the big deal? The yelling always existed, and it always will. Besides, it's really nothing personal. So ignore it or let it fuel your improvement. But don't fight it.

Your philosophy on line breaks hasn't budged, though.

Miami.

So I assume he can take online courses since he is only banned from campus.

As long as his webcam is disabled.

Are they finally gonna quit playing that cRAP music??

Wow, just realized how weak the home schedule is next year. Yuck.

Am I the only one that doesn't see Fresno St. and Miami as gimmes? I mean sure, neither one is a great team, and Carr graduates from Fresno. But still, we've lost (and/or damn-near lost) to worse teams in recent years.

 

The only gimmes I see are Florida Atlantic, McNeese State, Illinois, Rutgers, and Purdue. We should be favored in most of the other games, but it just seems we'll find a way to lose 4 of them.

We could very easily lose to Fresno or Miami. Both are good teams. If the lines came out today I'm guessing we would be 9 and 3-pt. favorites respectively.

If we escape non-conference unscathed I think 10-2 is pretty reasonable.

Anyone else kinda feelin 14-0?

I think you missed a spot.

Correct.

Wait, did this thread turn into moaning about ESPN and the frugality of Bo's higher-ups? #irony #process

Here's an idea: If they choose to go for two, they run the play from the 2 like always.

If they choose to kick the XP, they run it from the 10-yard line on the hash mark where the touchdown happened. There would still be a very high percentage of makes, but it would go from 99.8% to maybe 96%

Taylor certainly won't play QB. Perhaps someone will give him a chance at kick returner/receiver. He has such an awkward running style and he is mostly just a straight-line runner. His speed at 100% could at least stretch defenses though. I give him maybe a 30% chance of someone drafting him in the 7th. Otherwise it's the undrafted free agent route. More likely he ends up in the CFL or AFL.

I don't think people are understanding. There really is no difference. Everything is exactly the same, except you don't actually have to kick the extra point. You just get it. Two point conversions and risk-reward associated with them will not change.

Those socks were annoying. Looked fine, but they slid down every other play. You hate to see your QB waste two important seconds fixing his socks before going to the huddle.

Besides, I always preferred the gritty look of no socks.

Suns 124, Pacers 100

You would have to try for the 8th point, but not the 7th. It's basically, if you want the extra point, you get it. You just don't have to run the play. If you want to go "for 2" then you can just like you always could. That's the easiest way to think about it. Nothing really changes, except you have the option to Madden-style "simulate" the extra point play.

Here's what I would like:

1. B1G Championship, OR
   
2. Top 10 finish AND Orange, Fiesta, Cotton or Chick-Fil-A bowl win
   

Here are some more specific things I'd like to see, which will help lead to those primarily goals:

• Finish in the top 50 in penalty yards per game (first time in Bo's career)
  
• Win 11 games (first time in Bo's career)
  
• Finish in the top 50 in turnover margin (second time in Bo's career)
  
• Don't lose to anyone you're favored to beat by more than 5 points (second time in Bo's career)
  
• Don't lose to anyone by 14 points or more (second time in Bo's career)
  

What really rustles my jimmies is how you Instagram/Tweeter people ran Callahan out of town after four years. HELLO! IT TOOK DR TOM 22 YEARS to win the title. AT LEAST GIVE CALLAHAN 20. And yall think your better cuz you use line breaks and such, well guess what IN MY DAY THEY DIDNT HAVE LINE BREAKS! We walked uphill to school both ways, gave it to our wives hard and RAN THROUGH BRICK WALLS. So be happy with 9 wins or go root for an $EC team of thugs and felons.

hooray!
