  1. Well, we had to know that a win would have to come against impossible odds if we were going to get it. I say we spot them another touchdown and then come back and win it!
  2. Who? As a former resident of Boulder, I have refused to acknowledge their existence since Bill McCartney retired.
  3. Yah, I lived in Houston for about 1/4 of my life, and so did have lots of interactions with A&M folks. I definitely did respect A&M's football traditions. And they're perhaps the only fanbase out there that hates the Longhorns as much as we do! And it goes without saying that the military connection is admirable. I do love that they took Alabama down this year. Now if we can just beat Wiscy for the B1G, the pieces of the Big 12 will be wreaking proper havoc on the traditional powerhouse conferences!
  4. Agreed. Those back to back runs dragging the whole Iowa team along with him were flat out amazing. Epic. And just another day's work for Superman.
  5. Yah, the ties to the big 8 teams run deep and strong for most of us I think... Watching these great rivalry games today, I found myself pining for that NU vs. OU Thanksgiving day game. I was feeling bummed about the move to the B1G until I remembered that the Big 12 had already sunk that tradition for us... I find myself rooting for most of the Big 8 teams whenever they're not playing NU (which is almost all the time now). I really wanted Bill Snyder to win the big one somehow this year. Oh well, there's always next time around. I still love to hate the Texass teams that joined up with the Big 12. Punks and classless suckers every one, except perhaps A&M, who also had the smarts to jump ship!
  6. Thanks for this! I love random stats posts... I wonder what we'd get if we went to states adjoining the border 6? Maybe I'll get bored enough to look it up...
  7. That's right! Gonna be a long day for the Gophers...
  8. I'll admit it... I feel bad for the Buffs! They've fallen so far from the McCartney days... Never figured it out since Neuheisel squandered inherited talent back in the 90's!
  9. CROSS!! I love having a power game for the red zone again...
  10. I do hear that. Like you say, this is all new for them...
  11. I hope they kick Oregon's ass! Going to the Cal / Oregon game in an hour and I'm already smarting for the Bears. Plus, I like Bill Snyder -- The man's a class act!
  12. It's all good, man. I agree that it was noteworthy. I'm just glad that they got over it and kicked some butt.
  13. Yah, I give the game ball to Ameer. Tough running!
  14. Yah, I mostly like these two. I was getting annoyed, but the self-aware comment that they should cut it out made me smile. (Of course, they did bring it up again at least once more! Sigh...)
