Yes, it sure as heck wasn't Bollman.

Caleb Williams and Bryce Young are sitting at home watching CJ Stroud play. Dual threat wins Heismans for sure, and a dual threat with amazing accuracy like Fields can win titles. But Caleb Williams, Baker Mayfield, Jalen Hurts and Kyler Murray all have very rude awakenings in the playoffs. Recruit a guy who can throw first, and then if he can run it's a cheat code. But if you recruit a guy who is 50% passer and 50% runner, you end up with an awesome highlight reel watching others lift trophies.

He beat Penn State and Notre Dame... Regardless, he is the most prolific passer in the game or at the very minimum, the top 2. Just because he doesn't sprint around in the backfield 30 times a game before throwing up a desperation heave and having a receiver bail him out doesn't mean he should be punished for being smart.

Was that Jalin Marshall punt return still our last punt return for a TD?  I know Olave and others have returned blocked punts, but I can't recall us returning a non-blocked punt for a TD since then.

I always forget the best part of 2014 highlight videos is seeing Ezekiel Elliot without the ball in his hands.  Dude blocks by shooting himself like a missle into the chest of the poor unfortunate turtle assigned to get by him.

Yeah, I get it, Cade Stover and CJ looked awesome on the right side of the field on that TD pass.

But my man Paris Johnson was absolutely levelling *2* guys by himself on the left side of the line and nobody's talking about it.

"Horseshoe and watch Wisconsin get dumped." ISWYDT but it wasn't enough...

"Dirty Frank's Weiner Popping Up at Dubgate X"

Chase, how many bullet headlines did you go through before settling on "DIRTY FRANK'S IS THE OFFICIAL WEINER OF ELEVEN DUBGATE X" as the least controversial weiner #take?

I'm not sure these Jim Tressel moments are accurate...cause I'm 99% Tress doesn't have earbuds because music is meant to be enjoyed together. Pretty sure his car radio has an 8 track.

Ah! Hard to find them when I am looking on the wrong day

Thank you for the programming update! Enjoy your Wednesday posts too!

Roster and Schedule still link to the University of Utah...didn't think they had THAT many transfers.=b

You can go ahead and commence with the downvotes, I probably deserve it just for thinking this. But it is 2022, and there's a lot of less than factual stuff out there..... "Were there any witnesses?" Just seems like a story that ends with Garrett shot, but also ends with Garrett being the hero of the story, is the kind of tale someone could make up if something nefarious had gone down but they didn't want to admit to it. No reason to doubt this young man. I certainly don't have any evidence for an alternate theory. But nevertheless, it's 2022 and Jussie Smolett exists.

They can't. Hitting a sliding QB is a personal foul. Better to let him possibly juke for a couple more yards than get a targetting call...

Hard to enforce with only 9 refs watching 22 guys and it would also incentivize not checking for concussions and whatnot in critical moments. *QB gets his bell rung scrambling to the 19 yard line* Coach: Nah, just stay in. We only need 4 more downs to score!

But now that it has, it'll happen a lot more.

I want to know who the thin blue line of players that transfered from non-FBS to Power 5 schools...those sound like fun stories.

Bye weekends are not safe. Get outta here with that heresy

We blew that deal. If Coombs was willing to be a CB coach, we wanted him to be ours. He's the best positional coach in the country...just a lousy DC. Wonder if it was sour grapes over the highly publicized midseason demotion. I get why Day did it, but not sure it really helped long run.

Figure we should link Ramzy's Opus here every time someone discusses rescheduling games in the fall: https://www.elevenwarriors.com/college-football/2014/07/37574/fall-weddings-zero-tolerance?amp

B1G is looking good so far!
