You know what, let's go ahead and give Heupel credit where it's due. A new head coach can easily run things off the rails in year one - you all remember Riley and Callahan's first seasons, right?

@Mavric The other thing is I'm always skeptical about how well big SEC guys will be able to recruit when they're not sitting in top-tier recruiting territory. Lawrence is obviously a whole different world than Baton Rouge.

Something that hasn't been mentioned about Washington: he did that with a brace on his knee.

@Landlord Some fanbases don't really have any good, active boards that aren't run by the recruiting sites, though.

@Dilly Dilly As one poster noted, their whole fanbase is pretty pissed right now, especially at their OC, since this was their second week in a row without a TD. (See all the other threads on that board.) They're probably a little saltier than usual.

Meanwhile, I saw a thread on a Michigan State board from a Nebraska fan, and... https://247sports.com/college/michigan-state/Board/93/Contents/Good-game-124862864/

That was one of the ugliest games I've ever seen. 103 rushing yards rushing, 3.4 YPA. That sounds pretty bad until you realize that that's 26 yards/.85 YPA more than the average Michigan State has given up this season, and it was in nasty weather.

Nothing fancy... AMD FX-6300 6-core CPU @ 3.5GHz 16GB DDR3 RAM Radeon 5770 GPU (ancient and overdue for an upgrade, but I don't really play any graphics-intensive games these days) Crucial MX100 256GB SATA SSD + Seagate Barracuda 4TB HD Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 audio interface SilverStone Sugo SG10B MicroATX case

It sounds like this is a big part of what got the deal done: But yeah, for the immediate future it'll be interesting to see who he brings in as his OC. After that, it'll be interesting to see what kind of recruiting class he can put together.

I remember a while back there was some talk of putting Cook Pavilion back into use, did they actually do that? Seems like it might be useful to have both indoor fields in use with the expanded squad.

The computers like Michigan State but the humans like Nebraska. As weak as our rushing defense has been, their rushing offense is worse: it's currently ranked #117. What I'm worried about is guys on our side who are dinged up and might not play on Saturday...

We need to have like a final death toll thread on the 2017 class when the season is over.

Expanded quote: “I’ve heard the noise just like everyone,” Brohm said. “Unfortunately, it’s important for me to not comment on any speculation. Right now, I have a job and we’ve got work to do. We’re going to put forth the effort to do that. We have a tough opponent this week then we have to go to IU. We’re going to have to play well. We have to play much better than we did last week. I’m going to stay focused on that. I’m very appreciative of the job I have right now.” Certainly a non-denial...

This is no ordinary necroposting. This is... Advanced Necroposting.

2 wins in their last five games. In one of those wins, they put up 15 points, and in the other, they put up 14 points. That's an offense you wanna play for! Good enough for 2nd in the SEC East!

Well, we're both teams capable of beating up on Minnesota, we can say that at least. (53-28 vs us, 55-31 vs Illinois)
