Our head S&C coach used to coach at USCe, so that's probably the connection to your previous employee
I know buddy. 
That was my second sentence. 
His name is Rivers Bedenbaugh. He was a FB. 
He worked for me at UPS for a stint, and we enjoyed talking college football. 
SC fans are nuts about their team, so he was quite popular around the hub. 
Sad to see him go, but his potential is limitless.

I read that a Michigan WR hasn't caught a TD in over a year.

Fake news?
I heard that on the radio yesterday.  That is stunning.  The guy hosting the show was blistering Harbaugh too.  It was the College station on Sirius Ch. 84.  He wasn’t pulling any punches.  Really going after him.

It’s a hint untrue. The last WR TDS for Michigan were 9/9 last year. So we’re close. 
That’s the kind of stat that sounds dramatic, but you look closer and it just belies a simpler reality or ugly stat. Last year, UM QBs three 9 touchdowns, 10 picks. This year it’s 0-1.
With last year’s numbers, 8-5 seems like a flat-out miracle

While his overall record after 40 games is clearly one metric better than that of his predecessor, the record vs rivals is the statistic that could ultimately prove problematic; particularly now that he's conceded his ability to deflect by pointing out that Hoke was able to pad the rivalry stats by taking care of the Domers with regularity. 

Of course Hokes totals are a little misleading, as Hoke had a really strong first season and a really miserable fourth season. So unless the Wolverines go completely into the tank this year, those win percentages are likely to begin to separate rapidly into Hairball's favor.

In the vein of piling on:
Is M*ch*g*n the only team to lose OOC this week? Just like Bowl season...

The SEC went 13-1, with wins over #6 and #8.  Only loss was to a ranked team.



B10 went 11-2, but really 11-1, since one game was a conference affair.  One cancellation.  
With wins over #12 and #23.  Only loss was to a ranked team.
Close calls against Utah St, Appy St, and Kent St.

Thanks Penn State! One overtime victory and we already have of eSECpn is claiming the B1G will miss the playoffs. (And the other half have jumped on the OSU bandwagon.) :wtf:

If they had just stuck to FSU-Miami on Labor Day, we'd never know they both suck

The helmets are fine, the uniforms are trash.
