Perhaps a younger, principled Criner will arrive to atone for the sins of the father. That is a potential story I would be willing to follow. If it actually happens/ed.
For an offside kick, I don't understand why the kicker doesn't just choose one guy and fire it right at him. Pick a guy that is 11 yards away and just blast it. Wouldn't that be potentially be more successful?
@RagingCloner has the right mindset. Seeing the Cyclones struggling today has not been fun, but being 5-1 in October is still a positive. I remember the 0-6 years, and hope this is a one-off.
I wrote in another thread accidentally that it's probably going to week ten until the wheat from the chaff is exposed. We'll still be at 100 contestants until this juncture.
