It's part of a conspiracy between Mario and certain NFL general managers: Mario lowers the value of college players, especially offensive players, who can then be signed on the cheap by the GMs. Mario takes a cut of the contract savings as his compensation. It's gotta be true. What other explanation can there be?

""I think history maybe shows that this is a great place to be and not a great place to leave." Expert piece of trolling.

I appreciate the optimism, but I think that Occam’s Razor comes into play; the simplest explanation is that, sadly, Thompson is not very good. I would love to be wrong.

Currently, the PAC is made up exclusively of R1 (top level) research universities. SDSU is in the R2, second-level, category. Is that an obstacle to bringing in the Aztecs? I thought that was one of the criteria for conference membership.

As long as the Ducks don't allow the Huskies to get 71 points, I'm all for it.

Agree with all of this. The remaining games will not be easy.

Nah, now they’ll put the Domers in.

Do they have classes at Miami?

Miami hasn't scored a TD in over 6 quarters...Mario ball at it's finest. Physicality!

And, he evidently also rides a bad motorcycle. Well done!

Benson is killing it! He looks fabulous.

Schadenfreude alert: Florida St. over Miami 14-3 in the first quarter.

I don't want to jump on the guy, but I simply see, and have seen, no reason to think that Ty Thompson is going to make it as a starter. Very nervous about next year, or a Nix injury this season.

Are we going to see a backup QB? Or is it style points and Bo's Heisman campaign that rule the day?

It's Colorado ball to open the second half.

Hey! Don't forget Bucky Irving: he's 1 for 1 for 18 yards and a TD.

No DJ Johnson, no Jeffrey Bassa for this half. That's gotta be something.

Next touchdown will be Cameron Lewis on a jet sweep.

Tie-breaker for Heisman will be number of receiving touchdowns.

Opposing coaches are going to have to reckon with those crazy red-zone plays when they prep.

Oregon 56 - 17 2 turnovers 3 sacks 306 passing yards

Friends don't let friends root for the Huskies.

Now, that was some impressive research leading to a, I think, surprising and important conclusion. If the Ducks get the ball, they score, more regularly than they ever have. Another reason to appreciate this season. It's a very special one, one to be savored.

The Auburn football program is, by all accounts I've seen, a toxic environment mixed with a dumpster fire topped off with clueless boosters.

Up until this season, I had thought of Seven as the potential DAT 2022. But, it appears the juice was just not there. I don't see the team missing him, but as always, wish him the best; the Portal can be a bit like the Bermuda Triangle.
