Fleck fired up every time the cameras pan his way. Minnesota looks bigger at all positions compared to Nebraska - OL, WR, etc. I remember a lot of talk from Nebraska last year about the need to develop the Lines from the ground up, something Minnesota looks like they’ve already accomplished.
Indeed.  Looked this way most of the season.  They are little.

Psu v Iowa needs to deliver some entertainment.   BIG has been short on fun thus far this year.  MOV everywhere has been wide.   Not a lot of great games this season.   Socar did help us.

A couple of MAC trophy games today.

In the Battle of I-75, Bowling Green beat Toledo 20-7. (No, that's not a typo)

In the Wagon Wheel game, Kent State kept Akron winless 26-3.

Don't look now, but the Golden Flashes currently sit alone atop the MAC East standings as the only team without a Conference loss. (their other MAC win was by a 42 point margin vs Bowling Green)





Can you guess which trophy is modern, and which one is ancient? Lol.

I speculate that Mcaff is going to redshirt otherwise I would think he would be starting tonight.   My wild speculation is Frost would prefer him over Adrian.

Yeah, I see WF is in some serious jeopardy of falling from the unbeaten.

It’d be funny if the USC sideline became so enraged with Clay Helton’s ineptness that the headset he talks into was shoved down his throat. I would laugh.

Wow. That Iowa catch for the TD was phenominal.

I had Iowa in a Yahoo! Pickem contest.  I picked Iowa over Michigan too.

I must come to the realization that Iowa is offensively challenged.  I keep thinking that the Hawkeyes are better than they are.

The OU/UTA golden hat trophy thing is the worse 'trophy' I've ever seen.  It's worse than the Arky/LSU boot.

Please.  Nothing will ever be worse than prototype alpha v.1xx0.2 re-designed Cy-Hawk trophy:





Praise be to corn.

Florida tried their best...almost tied it up at 35, but a bad pass = a pick in the end zone.  



I don't think Florida's defense is as good as we though, but maybe the overall team is better.  With the UGA loss, the East is still ours for the taking.
