Wait this could be Bill Snyder's last game? 

 

 

Damn... what a legendary wizard that man is.. 

 

has anyone else done more with less? 

 

WOW GREAT START!

I fear Penn State less and less with each game that James Franklin is the head coach.

Seems like maybe one step above Hoke. A relentless recruiter who can't do anything, or very little, with the talent he has.

I don't know if I like these lollipop red helmets Arkansas has on... The red is just too much. 

 

USC does it better with their red/maroonish shiny helmets.

I'm confused about my rooting interest for the liberty Bowl.

I'm no fan of the "Fighting Berts", but I also pretty much hate the whole state of Kansas.

Besides meteors, whom do I root for?

If you are interested in some fun reading, RCMB is rich right now. Apparently a former player threw a tailgate and charged $50/person for what amounted to three kegs of beer, no food, and it was soon broken up by the cops. They are disputing charges for feeling like they were ripped off.

Too bad they can't dispute the Cotton Bowl tickets for the same reason.

The rest is either about Michigan or how they need to replace their OCs, which is probably true but coaching was only part of what happened against Alabama. That was a talent gap and one they are unlikely to overcome soon.

Who's the black announcer? I know the brown guy is an ESPN anchor... I like this duo. The color commentary is solid in this game. No botching of names, insightful comments on the schemes, personnel etc.

The sec fans down here in the south are already running their mouths about their "dominance" in their bowl games. Thankfully Michigan won.

Let them run their mouths.

Michigan did its part. It didn't just beat an SEC team. It fucking annihilated an SEC division champion. It outclassed a team loaded with 4-5 star talent at every position.

The SEC can collectively run its mouth, but it can't touch what Michigan accomplished yesterday.

I'm in the south too. I've been preemptive in my approach by letting my sec friends know how disappointing the matchups were. When sec gets to play mediocre Texas tech, Memphis, Kansas st, NW, and penn st teams....of course their bowl record will shine.
