  1. Well deserved on both. That defense gives them a chance to play with anyone.
  2. Matsuzawa did not miss a single kick all year until the 3rd quarter of the last regular season game. He’s the best kicker in college football. That he pulled this off just six years after first deciding to play the sport makes the accomplishment even more remarkable.
  3. I saw that Matsuzawa is a finalist for the Lou Groza. That one has to be the easiest one to predict I would think. No way the Tokyo Toe doesn’t win that award.
  4. I do not. You could tell he had a foot out the door for a good while. I don’t blame him for taking more money elsewhere, but any school that wants to pay him should be wary of his inability to stay healthy. Best QB in the Big XII this year when he played, but his line was shoddy at best and he still needs to grow as a leader. All players at his position need to at 20 years old though. You’ve seen firsthand how this has gone for Arch at times in finding his footing and voice. Dillingham was courteous to him and has nothing bad to say. He’ll have to find a veteran QB now in the portal or he’s going with someone that has never started at the college level next year. Either way I trust him to have a QB prepared to be successful. He gets along with his players really well and they genuinely like playing for him.
  5. Go Navy! Such a cool game and tradition. So many young men who play in this game will go on to be leaders in the military. I hope Army gives ‘em hell and that this matchup is a classic, but all Navy all the way.
  6. Some of the bowl games are meaningful to the teams playing in them. Hawai’i is playing in the Hawai’i Bowl. That’s a game featuring two Hawaiian QB’s facing off and two former Rainbow Warrior teammates coaching against each other with Nick Rolovich in the interim role for Cal. He also coached the Rainbow Warriors as well before he went off to Wazzu. That will be a pretty fun game and people out here are excited about seeing it.
  7. We don’t have a big money donor like Tech has, but ASU should never finish worse than 2nd or 3rd each season in this conference if our QB, whoever that is each season, stays healthy. We’re the only school in the entire conference located in an area people actually want to live in. Overall the conference is just a mess though when you have one school being bankrolled to relevance with 12 or 13 schools that will never be able to compete financially. I’m glad ASU has the best coach in the conference, by far, but he’ll still need some financial backing to make it work every season.
  8. Alexi Lalas deserves to get hit by a bus load of Mexican migrants and they all deserve to whack him upside the head with a shovel. He's as worthless a human being as Pulisic. Screw American soccer and the idiots who are representing it.
  9. Ted Cruz gets the first one.
  10. I never have done it, but what I have done is this. I have always been unfailingly nice to the kitchen staff. My mom ran the high school cafeteria and snack bar in my hometown for 25 years so I will go out of my way to be polite to kitchen staff and never yell at them. What this has meant is they enjoy giving me food all the time for being the person not blaming them for things going wrong. One place I worked in NYC would give me stuff every single day. @BearSchlong visited me there once by Central Park. They’d give me pancakes the size of a plate that were an inch thick. It was usually 4-5 of them a day, but I’d take them just because I didn’t want to seem rude and say no.
  11. https://www.wfaa.com/article/sports/high-school/stephenville-isd-renames-stadium-embattled-former-baylor-coach-art-briles/287-0d218975-e152-4242-9406-29e36846d0fc Naming your stadium after that guy because he won you a bunch of games really drives home how little it means to that town what he did at Baylor. Celina ISD is being sued by at least 17 different victims of Caleb Elliott. I am sure there is more. No shame at all from either town. One celebrates a rape enabler while the other covered up stuff going on for a good long while because it’s the coach’s son.
  12. BYU did not belong in the top 20 going into this game, much less 11th. Get out scored 63-14 by Tech should be enough to realize just how down the Big XII was this season. Tech was head and shoulders above the rest of the league, especially after Leavitt shut it down for the year.
  13. I believe that he is still on leave. He should’ve been fired, but that’s almost never how it works when you’re the head high school football coach in Texas that wins a lot.
  14. You have also made Cousin Eddie's list. Get ready to have his septic system sprayed all over your yard.
  15. This right here about Celina’s head coach is so infuriating. Meanwhile your son is torturing junior high athletes. No way he didn’t know something was amiss there.
