Please stop referring to the Toledo team as "terds". I say this not out of respect for Toledo, but out of respect for the English language. They are turds, not "terds".

The colder the better, I say! Cold weather adds to the authenticity of the football-watching experience. I hope I freeze my arse off.

Using games from the past to determine the future is just so wrong. I don't see how that can be avoided. If we can't use results from past games to determine who goes to the playoffs, how else can we do it? Play another game, you say. But once the game is played, it's in the past, too. Should we th...

Flush the turds, too!

I thought I would have to teach a class tonight. But I've managed to reschedule it. So now I can go to the game!

I'm so excited, I just had to share that with all of you.

While researching kickers for my fantasy team, I came across the following: "Rick Herrin, of the Star-Telegram, reports Dallas Cowboys PK Jose Cortez's play remains a concern for head coach Bill Parcells. Cortez made two of three field-goal attempts, missing a 41-yarder on the opening drive Mon...

... looks like a monkey and smells like one too.

I'd say that Jacobs, Pope, and Sharon are the best players I've seen playing for the BG Falcons. But I came to Bowling Green (from New Zealand) only a year ago, and prior to that I hadn't seen any American football at all, let alone any Falcons games.

How much college football have you watched? :coo-coo:

And how much time have you spent in college? "Irregardless" is not a word. (Though "irrespective" and "regardless" both are.)

I don't see why the loss should hurt Omar's chances (which is not to say, of course, that it won't do so). It's not always the case that a QB on a winning team is better than one on a losing team. Right?

Clearly, BG's defense was outclassed against Wisconsin. But maybe it was exacerbated by Pope's early departure. Without him in the game, BG seemed to adopt an almost exclusively pass-oriented offense, which was exciting to watch, but didn't consume much time, and hence didn't give the struggling def...
