  1. Agree 100%. And I’ll add the venue is/was unlike any other in sports, perhaps the Masters is an apt analogy. The Rose Bowl is a character in the story. Pasadena , the fact that VY had a record performance one year prior. All that you mentioned is spot on plus add the Rose Bowl, the grand-daddy of them all. If it was the fiesta or cotton , it would not have contributed to the build up like the Rose Bowl, for that given game, given all that USC was about for a decade in that town. Remember LA was floundering sports city while the Trojans were running herd on the cfb landscape.
  2. He hates the Buckeyes more than we do.
  3. oh yeah, true, duh, forgot about that.
  4. im crying , that was funny as shit.
  5. 7 teams still with players possibly entering , so we will see. Can only hope.
  6. Me too. Only thing more aggravating is the 15 yard return married to a "holding by the return team, half the distance to goal" start, when we could have just sat on it and had the ball at the 25.
  7. Got family in Sandpoint...always enjoy my visits there. They also have land in Clark, MT (about an hour away), on the Clark Fork River , right before the Dam at the lake. Cool area, we had a bear in the camp a couple years ago , but no problems as they spooked and ran. I didnt see him, but my dad did.
  8. CSB...my cousin went to Humboldt State, forestry school. Grew up in Long Beach and headed north after a couple of years at Long Beach CIty College (locals call it City).
  9. Up there with Giles, Dronett, Jeter and Patton
  10. I like how he covered the ball with 2 hands at initial contact
  11. Believe that was the game Mack’s stepson touched a live ball in the field of play negating a chance at a fumble recovery. Game was out hand at that point. ASU was talking a lot of shit leading up to that game. I seem to recall they were a fringe top 10 team that year.
  12. I dont know about that...everyone was predicting a deep recession too as rates continued to go up, inflation was stubborn, wars raging, domestic political climate uncertainty and a major housing shortage. The consumer is resilient. Paper wealth in retirement accounts are at all time highs, home equity wealth makes people feel 'better' about their standing. If you want a job you can find one, at better pay too as its a worker's market. Lots of cash earning 5% will have to go somewhere in 2025. Now rates are ebbing, inflation number was pointing positively and if you believe Goolsby, we are headed to 2%. I dont think '25 will match 23-24, but 10% in the S&P is doable. If Trump lets you write off car interest, watch for that industry to blow up. More line workers in the rust belt, manufacturing states.
  13. yes sir. That one will be worth watching.
  14. I shared the story with a colleague and he liked it as much as me. Great story.
  15. shoot spoke too soon....edit function also down.
  16. that worked. thanks.
  17. Using firefox browser, I see notifications lit up, but when i select the globe, i get nothing. Suggestions?
  18. Agreed, Michigan almost took it for a pick 6 as have a couple other teams this year... and seems like teams are on to that motion. All the pre-snap movement also appears to not really be generating the defensive re- alignment its designed to elicit. One thing i could see us doing is more 'orbit', where we throw to the WR motioning (ala D Smith at Bama and X last year) as a result of the defense not trailing/respecting that player as much. I believe Sark with 2 weeks will come up with more wrinkles.
  19. He had a 12-0 season a couple years ago. They would likey have been a playoff team, seems like a good fit for him.
  20. yeah i posted that on another thread yesterday and a poster debunked the tweet. May not be legit.
  21. he is ready per a tweet I saw today. Said he feels comfortable. We should be good there. Bond is another question. Don't think he plays much from what I have seen. We'll go heavy to Golden, Moore, Wingo and Helm. We havent run the reverse to Wingo in a long time. I look for Sark to have some things up his sleeve if we can get it to two scores. Dabo will run some trick plays and maybe even an on-side if they have momentum. He'll try and steal a possession and play keep away with QB runs on most 3rd and shorts, like others have said , Sam Ellinger ball.
  22. Well hell I fell for it. Thanks for the heads up. Thankfully we are not playing him, I dont like seeing former Horns do well against us.
  23. Not sure if already posted, but we'll be playing against none other than Malik Murphy at Kentucky next season.
  24. We do have his favorite QB on campus (or will be shortly) for what that is worth. Lot of players jumping off SS Doboer right now, so we'll see. QB situation at Bama is looking bleak until the D'ville kid gets up and running. I imagine Bama will land a transfer QB, but they may be looking at a steep drop off.
