Unless its Falconboy doing the weighting. In that case, you'll have 250, 6-1 guys listed as 220, 5-11 simply because they're playing for a "mid-major."

Who else thinkw Falconboy should just come out as a tOA&M fan?

considering his brother Michael runs a lidgit 4.25-40, i wouldnt be totally shocked if he ran a 4.28. His numbers are respectable for playing in the frickin ACC and this being his 1st year as a starter. i agree with the arrests though, no excuse for that one.
4th & 13 on PU 32yd line.. 56,000 fans up on their feet screaming, i held my breath the entire play trying to make as little noise as possible.. wouldnt u know Sharon would make the biggest touchdown catch in the history of BG Football, FALCON UP!

I'm pretty sure Dr. Bucko's sensors will pick up this fictious 40 time talk and come give us a lesson. Mostly about how timing for college teams is crap, that if he really runs a 4.28 he would be running 100m under 10s, and if you believe it you must be drinking happy juice. However in this case I would probably believe him. Vick may be incredibly fast, faster than most people, so I don't really care what his actual speed is when I watch him leave guys eating is dust.

He's looked good in the ACC? He's played against Duke and Ohio...nothing spectacular. In his one game against a good defense, NC State, he still only went 10 of 21 for 108. But it doesnt matter because he is the best runner ever, with his 2.4 yards per carry. just amazing.

I believe it was 17-0 at the half.

Ohio does have a pretty good defense, from the looks of things. I believe we would have beaten Wisconsin with a defense like that.

But when your offense is totally incompetent, there is only so much a defense can do.

The Bobcats have scored exactly 10 points on offense this season. They clearly can't move the ball.

That puts the defense in a terrible hole. I didn't see the Ohio-Virginia Tech game, but I'd guess the defense just wore out.
Will they be good in a few years? Most likely. Will Frank be around? Probably not.
Solich isn't exactly a spring chicken. I've always been sort of under the impression that he just might be thinking long-term about Ohio. It's just an impression.

I watched the game on espnU. The OU defense is good. They were just put on the field with no help too many times. If they had an offense they could have been winning at halftime. Their defense did as much as they could for as long as they could.

if it's INFLATED by 40 does that mean he really runs a .11 sec 40 time?

obviously i am kidding.

Good question. He will be back after their next win. If memory serves me correctly he did not start posting here last year until they beat Kentucky.

Oh yeah, Ohio also has a horrible kicker.
