      Finally, Northwestern looks good, and would be my favorite right now. But they have two tough games coming up: Wisconsin and @ Ohio State. That's two losses right there and just like that they are in the back seat looking forward.

  3. New Michigan (fake midwest)Canadian food of the week: Poutine. Essentially french fries, cheese curds, and gravy. Additonally a protein such as bacon may be added. Sounds disgusting, but may actually be the nectar of the grease gods! I want to bring this finest confection back to the motherland!!!

      Its not very unique IMO. They stole the whole front end concept from the viper and put a Camaro rear end on it. I like it, but when looking at it from the front on, it looks too much like a Dodge Viper.

    4. ZRod

      ZRod

      See people say they stole it from the viper, but look at the stingray concept and you'll see where it came from. Not to mention it's been in the works since '07. So who really stole from who?

      I hate to say this because I love the kid, but a lot of the Offensive woes are on Taylor's shoulders for that game. Looking at second half film he wasn't checking downs wasn't getting yards with his feet when guys were covered, and wasn't making correct reads in the run game. The last 2 may be a result of his injury but not checking down is inexcusable at this point.

    3. ZRod

      ZRod

      A couple times he could have got 10+ yards if he went through his progression and kept the drive alive. But WRs also dropped some good balls too.

    4. Treand3

      Man I agree the lack of checkdowns are upstairs for Taylor. Feel Beck didn't get the memo ucla struggles with power O and excels against later schemes.

      Rather than paying someone at the post office to sit and sort mail for local mail, its easier to send all the mail out to a sorting facility and then have it come back with all the other incoming mail. It sounds stupid but its the most efficient way

      Why is it that our OL NEVER manages to stay healthy, ever? Seems like they're always down a man, or like... all of them.

       

      You can't win consistently if you can't field a quality OL.

       

      But, yeah, if DL wants to pretend our offense is the old Vikings w/ Culpepper, Moss, and Carter and throw deep fades all game, our WRs have to make plays. They did not.

      Our offensive line was so porous, surprised tOSU wasn't intercepting shotgun snaps.

      And shoot, did the refs call a holding flag all night? I might remember one. If that's the case, go get some damn jersey and run the ball.

       

      That's what happens when you give up on the run. You get that kind of miserable crap. Bleghh. What a horrible game. Gonna take some time to get the taste out of my mouth.

       

      Let's win next week, Huskers.

      @ZRod Exactly!  We went to the bar in Evanston a few years back...we opened the door and people were getting the bar ready for opening..it was not even opened up yet!  It was like 9am.  The entire town is just a really nice (sleep) town.
