Isn't he the guy that calls the media rat poison for hyping up his team and often time treats them terribly? Now he's openly using them to beg. Sad day

They Harbaughed Harbaugh.
He seems to run traditional trick plays that no one runs any more.
Damn, I looked at Purdue's schedule for next year.
Noncon: Syracuse, VT, and Fresno.
Conference they get Michigan and tOSU.
That'll be a test.

The turnover trophies/chains/sunglasses/etc. that individual guys wear after getting a pick.
You ain't kidding! I saw him make an incredible diving catch @ Minnesota earlier in the year. He literally dove like he was Superman, caught the ball in front of him while he was prine in the air, landed with the ball and did not lose control when he hit the ground. He good!
I'm more of a true CFB fan where I'll watch anybody...but I am always going to pull for that underdog or G5 team when real playoff starts. I'll probably follow even if the favorites win as long as it's a true national broad playoff and not just something that grows into SEC/B10 cash machine.
In basketball I'm really only an ISU and NBA fan. I like the tournament pretty much exclusively for Cinderella and upsets. When it gets to S16 or E8 and there's no ISU and no cinderella I totally ignore it.
The team I go back to in college football that could've been a true Cinderella going all the way is that 2004 Utah team when they were still MWC. Nobody even came close to them all year (every game won by 2 TDs or more) and Meyer would take the same system to national championships elsewhere. Also their 08 team but especially 04.
Not sure we'll see that again though. I don't believe recent UCF teams could've done that. The 04 Utah team is the second most dominant team in CFB history by score differential.
Kind of feel bad for Brohm, he's outcoached Harbaugh, he just doesn't have the horses.
I saw the 2008 Utah team @ Michigan to open the season. They totally dominated the game, but they kept bogging down in the red zone and settled for field goals, and Michigan scored late to make the score more respectable. Ended the year with a Sugar Bowl win over Alabama to boot. Nice bookend games! Sent quite a few players to the BFL from that team too.
and? Do you remember the play in the end zone that should have been either a safety for Texas or a TD, those were the only two calls that should have been made on that play. Instead they called roughing the QB. Terrible call. Huge PI in the end zone they let Bama get away with. Should have been first down inside the 10 for Texas. Instead Texas missed a FG.
Those were interesting years where top half of MWC and BoiseSt in Wac were pretty clearly better than almost the entire Big East and ACC with Big East on last legs and ACC way down.
It makes cfb a lot more fun to have upstarts like that and it seems like all the moves lately have been to do whatever they can to end that.
Refs make bad calls. Just saying that when they had 17 penalties called against them, blaming the refs for the loss is kind of weak sauce. (Edit: SEC Refs, as IDNRC). That being said, 'Bama was definitely fortunate to win that game.
