All Activity

It was already announced most officiating crews were in place...

Probably affect tv crews and officials the most. And visiting team fans I guess. Glad we didn't have any accidents.

It looks like the grounding has been lifted, but how long will it take for all flights operational.

Boy... that might really hurt Purdue's chances against Iowa 😆😄

This is not evidence…

The committee will probably drop Utah 4 spots for missing their flight while all SEC teams that missed theirs will move up 2 spots apiece. Ole Miss, Tennessee and Texas are already conditioning this as a “good loss” to the CFP committee. Arizona State, which now plans to fly Saturday morning to UCF for a 3:30 kickoff, was pushing back from its gate upon the stoppage alert. Washington’s plane had a flat tire causing a delay that prevented it from taking off for Michigan State. Otherwise would have been in the air before the ground stoppage. USC has arrived in Indiana for the Saturday game. All officiating crews for the Big Ten’s eight games are on-site and will be able to work tomorrow, per a league spokesman. ACC: All visiting teams have reached their destinations. I guess it just means more in the ACC... Purdue's off this list now, taking four buses to Iowa, 331 miles, with an 11 PM ETA tonight. Auburn and Alabama on buses too. Big 12 Conference officials are in dialogue with media partners about adjusting kickoff times of impacted games, potentially swapping time slots with other games.

I wonder who didn't put their cell phone in airplane mode to cause this.

No, I'd be pooping (PG version) on it.

At Whit's End? Is Kyle Whittingham one-and-done at Michigan? Why Wolveri...Kyle Whittingham was a stop-gap hire that has gone awry.

FWIW - SP+ - Oregon by 9.3 FPI - Oregon by 15.4

I have to hand it to Sco Ducks Xs & Os, they have been doing an excellent job in reviewing the key factors in Duck games. I also like Landon Tengwall's Youtube channel which is focused on B1G mostly including a lot of Duck stuff. Highly recommended if you haven't already connected.

Game on!

Okay... I'm done with the reverse psychology predictions. Oregon 31-14 2 2 252

I couldn't imagine they would travel 3 times zone just one night before the game. Thanks for confirming this with the correct information. But at this rate, and for all we know, after we kick their butts tomorrow, we might be hosting those boys for a little while. And I bet there are a lot of disappointed Michigan fans out there hanging around airports.

I really like the Purina Puppy Chow stadium.

ROAD TRIP!!!

Ducks win 34-7 1 TO 2 Sacks 275 yards passing

They should have renamed it “The Mistake by the Lake.”

Update - Michigan flight has landed in Eugene. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/11/13/oregon-football-michigan-arrives-in-eugene-before-faa-grounding/92767517007/ Only the second ground stop since 9/11.

Michigan football planning to leave day early for Oregon gameWhittingham has opted to have his team travel out Thursday night, after practice, in order to help players and staff adjust their body clocks. “It’s the first time in my career that we’ve traveled three time zones,” Whittingham said. “We’ve traveled two a few times, but never experienced a three time-zone trip.” https://www.mlive.com/wolverines/football/2026/11/michigan-football-planning-to-leave-day-early-for-oregon-game.html

Correct, Michigan left Thursday Michigan football planning to leave day early for Oregon gameWhittingham has opted to have his team travel out Thursday night, after practice, in order to help players and staff adjust their body clocks. “It’s the first time in my career that we’ve traveled three time zones,” Whittingham said. “We’ve traveled two a few times, but never experienced a three time-zone trip.” https://www.mlive.com/wolverines/football/2026/11/michigan-football-planning-to-leave-day-early-for-oregon-game.html

It appears Michigan went wheels up about 54 minutes before the ground stop. If teams were scheduled to travel late....like Oregon did last Friday....there will be a lot of host teams sweating whether and how a game might be rescheduled. You are correct, about TV crews. The TV crew that is scheduled for the game in Eugene on Saturday is doing the Illinois at UCLA game tonight. They are probably already in L.A. But, might the ground stop continue long enough to affect their post-game departure to Eugene?

there could be problems with tv crews too
