  1. Work in the KC Metro area. Last year I mentioned Pederson's firing to someone at work. They started to get happy and excited. Had to explain the difference between Steve Pederson and Karl Peterson
  2. the clones have clawed their way into creampuff status (#95). they should get a backup some time against ISU, but who knows? but as you pointed out, they didn't play backup qbs against the other creampuffs. I hope the game is close enough that they need the ganzinator the whole way. BTW-- He can go back to the interception mode for one week. what are we?? we cant be that far behind at 3-3 #39 http://www.mratings.com/cf/compare.htm And #39 last week as well. Does any one know NU's strength of schedule? i remember seeing something on cbs sports but i dont think its correct but it said we had #1 SOS... Looked it up. We are still #1

  4. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
  5. Don't run plays towards the sideline where the chain gang is.
  6. Yeah, but he has been stockpiling picts for a year.
  7. Did he red shirt? I thought that you had to be a junior to declare for the draft. I forget his name . . . the freshman tail back from Ohio HerbState, LaBron's friend, got arrested . . . he lost the lawsuit.
  8. One game at a time. With a short memory of the last game, win or lose.
  9. hey cy, where you live? address wise, that way when i see a damned offical trip one of our players i know where to place the explosives. "Yard marker of death" Bwahaha
  10. Do we play any more Techs this year? Please?
  11. The motto for the rest of the year is if we can play like this again I hope like hell they will. But there will be ups and downs for the team. Still need to improve on the mental errors. I need to calm down, take a deep breathe and take a step back. After the first three games the expectations were guarded optimism. After VTech, concern. After MU, we the fans "knew" we were in for a losing season, the players can't play coaches can't coach. Now, we are destined for #2 in the B12 North. Don't get me wrong, I think it might be possible. For the rest of the season I swear to celebrate any wins and not slit my wrists after any loss.
  12. Does anyone know what Chase said during last night's post game interview? anything stupid? Or did he learn his lesson?

    5-1

    As Bo would say "Lipstick on a pig, its still a loss" TO would always say NU plays against themselves, striving for perfection on those those things the players can control. NU is not there . . . . yet.
  14. My best weekends are when NU wins and Notre Dumb loses. (2) My worst are when NU loses and Notre Dumb wins. (0) This weekend I put at a 1.5 (Bo doesn't accept moral victories, but after last few years I do)
  15. I wonder how NU's SOS will play out this week? We were #1 recently
  16. Its evaluation and development of talent. Not scholarships vs walkons. I thought we just got done with 4 years of "real recruiting"
  17. With that much time left, 99% of coaches would take the points. It was a great call, obviously planned earlier since the field goal team came on the field so quickly. Great call... And 99.99% of coaches would have punted 4th and 4 on their own 35(?)
  18. TO's first year 1973, against Missouri, Kansas and Okie St. were 1 pt loss, 1 pt win and a tie, respectively Against Missouri he went for the win, and was chastised for not going for the tie. Two weeks later, learning his lesson, he went for the tie. And was chastised for not going for the win. TO said from the experience, paraphrased: "From now on I am going to do what I feel is best for the team, and not read the papers" You can't compare the decisions before the overtime rule was in effect vs. now. Used to be that the decision was an almost sure tie vs. going for the win. Now the decision is whether to try to win on one play vs. trying to beat them in OT. There is no clear cut decision. I took a quick google at the odds of making a 2 point conversion. The only thing I found quickly was this article: http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/news...o&type=lgns, which refers (I think) to NFL stats that says an extra point is 99% while a 2 point conversion has a 44% success rate. If you think you have a 50/50 chance of winning in OT, that says you should go for 1 and go to OT. But it's close enough that you might reconsider if you are big underdogs, like we were. It might be a lot less that 50/50 in OT. However, we were out playing TT at that point, and have a better kicker. And that kicker difference could easily have been the decider. I think if you are the better team, it's a no-brainer to put it in OT. If the teams are even-up, still looks like better odds in OT. If you've tied it on flukes and have no business being in the game with the other team, roll the dice and go for 2. Otherwise, it's a gut feeling call. I was calling for sending it into OT but wouldn't have been upset to go for 2, even if it didn't work. We were a big underdog but I don't think we got there by flukes at all. Yes I know the rules are different. The previous poster mentioned " TO did the same things and learned from them" and I gave the data that backed him up. The most important line from my post was TO learned that unless you win, people will always second guess you, so as a coach you can't listen to what others (thats us) say, but be true to yourself.

  20. You say may I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one Perfect - and on John Lennon's birthday, no less! What?!? That isn't your picture for your avatar?
  21. Lets try not moving until the ball is snapped, not taking 2 seconds more than the play clock to run a play, not tackling a receiver until he touches the ball . . . .
  22. And lots and lots of ethyl alcohol
  23. rivals.com is my rival recruiting services are a disservice to fans, way too often they could just as well by throwing darts to predict
