but after winning only one game in 2012, my Colorado Buffaloes have already matched that win total in the first season of Mike MacIntyre's tenure. The true test to see if they are really making progress towards some sort of respectability comes today, when they host UCA, an FCS power at home. Will they do what an FBS team should and put the hammer down, or will they do what they have in recent years and drop this one to a lesser opponent?
My other alma mater has a bye, but I'm still basking in the Jameis afterglow.
Wanna watch the best running back in college football...
fuck them for canceling a game because they have to make room to schedule 4 ACC games and they canceled a game that hasn't even been played all that long. They went almost 40 years without playing each other until the 80's.
They couldn't keep everybody and games like USC, Michigan State, and Navy have been played a hell of a lot more than Michigan-Notre Dame. They've played 40 times, not 100 like some idiot michigan fans make it out to be.
And this year isn't the final year of it, next year in South Bend is the final one. I'm sure down the road they will play again, too. They've taken breaks from playing each other multiple times.
it common knowledge that Michigan was planning to cancel the series once the Big 10 schedule expanded to 9 games? There's quotes from the Michigan AD saying as much.
Kudos to ND for beating them to the punch and copping that extra home game!
ha ha. Did you hear what skip bayless said on ESPN about Michigan-Notre Dame?
Quote:
This is not an historical... Are you kidding me? I mean, I grew up, I couldn't wait for Michigan-Notre Dame, going back to Bubba Smith.
For the first 26 years of Skip Bayless life, ND didn't play Michigan. Oh, and Bubba Smith played for Michigan State, not Michigan. And Smith played in the 60's, when Michigan and Notre Dame didn't play
Fucking hilarious how dumb some of the ESPN guys are.
but I am not losing sleep over it. I remember KWhite told me last year that outside OSU, Notre Dame was their best rival. I just shook my head...
Mook and I are from the same area, and the one game that would absolutely be bananas for our area would be ND and Penn State. I would love to see those two form a rivalry, but its never going to happen.
has played PSU like 20 times and played twice in 2006-2007. I'd like to see that one come back on a rotating basis maybe play twice every decade or something, same with Michigan.
I really dislike both immensely, but #1 son went to the U and #1 daughter is at FSU. I still dislike UF because of Spurrier and cannot get past that.
I guess I have a small dog in the fight at Miami so I'll root there.
ND-Michigan will be a beauty. Not sure how Rees will do against a real defense, but would love to see ND roll.
Dymonte Thomas get some action and blocked a punt as a safety. Stribbling had a good game, and I think Butt can be a pretty good TE. Dont know much about the OL though.
I was just curious. I heard Taco Charlton had a great camp. Since I really started following recruiting a couple years ago. I'm always curious how guys UW missed out on do at other schools.
Clement is a beast as well. And we already have Taiwan Deal committed. The running game is going nowhere. Thomas Hammock is one of the best in the business. He's going to get an OC job before long.

Just turn on the Miami game. You'll know who it is the first time he touches the ball.

Looking forward to the Carolina - UGA game and of course the Cuse they try not to embarrass themselves in the road at northwestern.

Jon in NYC : 11:19 am
have a real defense
Grrrr..
Da'Shawn Hand (top recruit according to Rivals.com) is visiting tonight. He's choosing between Michigan, Alabama, and Florida.
Jabrill Peppers has already committed.
And my bad, this isn't the last game.
And I hate ND, it's not blind hatred, I've hated them for years.

Bring back Paul Chryst.
Hackenberg (could see him as a classic pocket passer on Sundays in a few years)
Nice to know that we might be running into a really good crop of QBs when Eli ages
