Tom Murphy's AP ballot...

Good for laughs.

My sources in that newsroom tell me his poll they're running in the paper has Arkansas unranked and Auburn at 17.

What's being rumored about Carroo is his girlfriend got in a fight with another woman and he got involved on his GF's side.

As of now, he's just suspended.

This is true of literally zero coaches ever and you are trying really hard to justify a hire you liked acting like an rear end in a top hat. This reads like a parody of one of those "by gawd in my day they didn't even give us water!" talk radio callers.

They didn't. We fired the old AD because he tried to fire Mike Rice when he learned about the video of him hitting players, was prevented from doing so, and was made the scapegoat afterwards. Flood had been coach for a year when they received the bid. They had nothing and next to nothing to do with membership.

Jesus Christ, Mizzou's offense is loving putrid. The defense loving rules, though, and I think the score was a little misleading since Arkansas St. had two insane touchdown grabs from the same dude that I feel like most receivers wouldn't make. Anyways, please stop dropping the few passes that Mauk manages to put on target, WRs.

the sideline should be a safe place where players can reflect on their gender identity with crayons and play-doh. cookies to eat and empowering children's shows on thee jumbotron like stephen universe and korra.

i mean can you even imagine what it must be like to be embarrassed by your coach for drawing a stupid celebration penalty in front of your teammates. it's basically rape. jim mcelwain is a rapist who raped a sensitive young man in front of his friends and a studio audience. he should be in jail and not at all praised for trying to hold his players accountable by applying psychological pressure instead of pulling an important playmaker out of the game

also the players dad should join mcelwain in prison for supporting rape culture by saying his dumb idiot son needed to be called out

BGSU looked scary on offense yesterday. If that's what we look like when our offense clicks, then drat, it's gonna be an awesome season. Our defense was better than it was last game, and we didn't really get destroyed this time. Granted Maryland is a bottom tier Big Ten team, and UT is supposedly pretty good, so we'll have time to see. There is no team in the MAC that can handle this kind of offense, so if we can have the defense continue to improve and clean up the stupid penalties (I'm not even gonna mention the Special Teams right now), I can see another MAC title on the way.

Matt Johnson is going to break the single season record for passing this year for the school easily at this rate, and might have a shot for the NCAA record, as long as he stays healthy. Had he been our QB last year, we probably would have won the MAC again. Coppet/Greene are a nice thunder/lightning punch as well.

Memphis will be a challenge next week, but hopefully after two games on the road, we can put up a good fight. Purdue after that, and they're not that great either. If we can come out of this OOC schedule as 2-2, both wins against the B10, I'll be thrilled.

Yay, the other BG fan :toot:

Yeah Matt Johnson looked out of his mind, and Lewis has been completely spectacular as a receiver. If they could get even a modicum of kick coverage I'd be really thrilled.

Memphis can Run The Dang Ball really well and they've had a very solid defense the last couple years. Still, if it comes down to it, I like us in a track meet. 2-2 out of the first 4 weeks would be great. If we somehow went 3-1 I'd be blown away.

The trick to getting ranked:

1. Beat a terrible, overrated Stanford team
2. Kick the absolute poo poo out of an FCS team that got clobbered by another FCS team that lost 44-0 to Illinois
3. Wait for every other team in the top 25 to poo poo themselves on national television
