[Weis referring to Pete Carroll] "Was I living with a grad student in Malibu, or was I living with my wife in my house? You could bet that if I were living with a grad student here in South Bend, it would be national news. He's doing it in Malibu and it's not national news. What's the difference? I don't understand. Why is it OK for one guy to do things like that, but for me, I'm scrutinized when I swear. I'm sorry for swearing; absolve my sins."
OH SNAP!

Bowl Game Travel: When do you buy the plane tickets?
by millzners on Dec 2, 2009 12:21 PM EST
9 comments
We're looking at 80% Cap One, 10% Fiesta, and 5% each for Orange and Outback right?
What's your strategy for buying plane tickets during these times of uncertainty? Today, you can book a non-refundable round trip flight from BWI to Orlando for the Cap One bowl for under $190 a person but it's likely that by the time we know for sure it's going to be another $100. Refundable tickets are expensive, so getting those now is mostly a wash...

Special Teams Personel to be Shuffled. No this is not a repeat.
With 2 games in the regular season we're in the bottom 5% in kickoff returns and coverage. So *now* we're going to make some personel changes. Joe says it's not scheme, and it's not coaching.
Ok, usually I'm a blatant optimist, but something tells me this might have a little to do with scheme and coaching. Last I checked we have 1st string guys out there on coverage and returns, and we're still horrific.

Getting a Pulse: How confident are you?
by millzners on Nov 5, 2009 3:22 PM EST

Heading into last year's game I was outrageously confident we'd win. There wasn't a doubt in my mind. I think I predicted we'd win like 49-17 or something. Needless to say come 3rd quarter I was sweating bullets.

Does Sanchez's performance in the NFL make the Rose Bowl a little easier to bear?
by millzners on Sep 21, 2009 12:35 PM EDT

Ok after two games the rookie QB Sanchez has now outplayed and beat Tom Brady and the Patriots and led his team to a 2-0 start. He's completed 60% of his passes and looks like he's headed for a monster rookie season... Stats
In hindsight I'm not sure we can hang our heads about the Rose Bowl. We faced an NFL-caliber passing attack lead by a guy who's now playing at an extremely high level in the NFL. Sanchez wasn't just some average NCAAF QB, and our inability to stop him now seems less damning.

Get your tin foil hat out, I've got a good one
We're keeping Royster's carries down to keep him from running off to the NFL. By using him as a receiver, punt returner, and by using Green more (8 carries to Royster's 12) we're keeping Royster from being a featured TB. By doing so we're keeping him healthy and making sure he isn't going anywhere. I know it's not true, but it's good for discussion on this glorious Sunday afternoon.

Tailgate food: What's your favorite?
by millzners on Sep 10, 2009 10:55 AM EDT

I was wondering thru the grocery store last Friday thinking: "man, I always get the same food for tailgating, I need to expand my horizons" but to no avail.
I found myself yet again grilling brats burgers and sausages, and yet again found the stable of reliable mainstays to be satisfying yet boring. I've seen people cook everything from beer-can chicken to bar-b-q ribs over coals, I've seen chili, kabobs, fish, dips everything.
So this time around I need some suggestions: How do you roll? What are your all time favorite recipes and foods at a tailgate?

Rivalry Esq Looks at PSU
Just a continuation of BamaHawkeye's campaign to discredit PSU. He's now on the record: PSU will lose to Iowa (shocking!) Illinois, Michigan, and MSU.
Good stuff.
