  1. Officially, at least, Brian reports directly to the AD, rather than to his dad. They structured it that way to get around anti-nepotism laws. So the AD doesn't really even need to tell Kirk to pull the trigger, here.
  2. I wonder why anyone would give a s#!t about that today...
  3. Yeah, I'ma be donning an eyepatch that day and looking for a 'third-party stream'. *coughsportsurge.netcough*
  4. Wisconsin: 24.8 PPG Purdue: 21.9 PPG Northwestern: 21.8 PPG Minnesota: 21.1 PPG Illinois: 20.4 PPG Nebraska: 20.3 PPG Iowa: 19.5 PPG In this division, we play DEFENSE!
  5. The computers still love them some Maryland, eh?

    Sims vs HH

    Always wondered what might have been if we could've seen freshman running T-Mart combined with junior passing T-Mart...
  7. Iowa's got the easiest schedule the rest of the way. We're their toughest remaining opponent.

    Sims vs HH

    "We couldn't fix any of these other guys, but this one guy who's clearly even worse than any of them, I'm sure we can fix him!"

    Or Casey. Though I wouldn't take Tanner Lee...
  10. Also depends on whether any punishment comes before or after the CCG. If it drags out long enough, Meatchicken could still play in the CCG.
  11. Purdue hired a Colorado player to be their coach. That he didn't really deserve. There were a half dozen other plays in that game where if we hadn't screwed up on any one of them, we would've won the game - they would've made O'Hanlon's play irrelevant to the outcome. But people only remember the last one...
  12. Yep, Maryland still sucks against anyone with a pulse.
  13. Then why on earth would you be worried about Purdue?!
  14. @caveman99 Not quite. It's how often opponents run it compared to what they normally do (X-axis), versus how successful they are at running compared to what they normally are (Y-axis). Bottom left quadrant means that opponents have run the ball against us less often than they usually do, and when they do run it against us, they are less successful at it than they usually are . So yeah, we've been pretty solid at run defense, despite only being a 3-3 up front (instead of 3-4 or 4-3).
  15. @BigRedBuster The stat doesn't show the plays per game where the QB is running for his life. I think the 2022 number shows the difference in having a less mobile QB.
  16. Got me curious about how the offense is doing in average sacks allowed per game... 2023 so far: 2.0 sacks/game 2022: 2.75 2021: 2.42 2020: 2.0 2019: 2.33 2018: 2.33 2017: 2.0 2.0 sacks per game is only good enough to be #66 in the country in that stat, but at least it's at the good end of a pretty bad range...
  17. Nope, the other one. Yeah, that one too.
  18. If the rumors are to be believed, you might need to look just a little south for the guy we'll be targeting for NIL...
  19. Nobody is going to win the West, it's just a matter of who loses it the least...
  20. I'll just say this: Haarberg to date has been a luckier QB than Sims. Don't mistake that for being a better QB...
  21. Over two starts, Sims averaged two INTs and one fumble per game. And as it happens, Haarberg had exactly two INTs and one fumble just yesterday.
  22. You can get more practice time in bowl prep than you can from spring camp. Spring is capped at 15 practices, but bowl game prep is only capped by the same number of practice hours per week as during the season.
