October 21 - Week 8 Stream of Conciousness
« on: October 21, 2023, 06:54:08 AM »
Morning All, evidently Sam and Badge are on assignment so coffee is on and let's hear it
Was reading the Buckeye Roundtable and i agree with this take

Do they need to run the ball well in order to beat Penn State? Yes. I liked the usage of Devin Brown in the red zone and hope it continues because it was a new wrinkle that the Buckeyes haven't used before. I also hope Ryan Day and Brian Hartline continue to use Dallan Hayden because he has continued to impress time and time again. I also think Henderson and Hayden are a perfect one-two punch at running back because each of them brings different styles of attacking the defense.

should be a good game hopefully a whiteknuckler see how things are going to shake out in the BIG East

Besides the tilt in the 'Shoe we have:
No. 11 Alabama vs. No. 17 Tennessee – 3:30 p.m. ET

It’s going to be nearly impossible for these two teams to put on an encore performance after last year’s thriller in Knoxville, but when Tennessee and Alabama get together, it’s always must-watch television.


No. 4 Florida State vs. No. 16 Duke – 7:30 p.m. ET

The Seminoles continue to win with a schedule that looks manageable the rest of the way.

If the Seminoles are able to get by the Blue Devils.The status of Duke QB Riley Leonardis up in the air as head coach Mike Elko said his star QB is "day-to-day" after suffering an ankle injury against Notre Dame in Week 5.


No. 18 USC vs. No. 14 Utah – 8 p.m. ET

It’s do-or-die time for the Trojans who have no margin for error after getting smoked by Notre Dame in Week 7.Reigning Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams had his worst game of the season in primetime, throwing three interceptions as USC lost by 28 points.Despite the loss, USC has a ton to play for as they are still undefeated in conference play with a gauntlet of a schedule ahead of them.

Another addendum from the roundtable

As someone who has watched Drew Allar play football for years, the fact that Penn State hasn't used his arm talent (Allar has a cannon) is crazy to me, to be honest. Whether it's the play-calling or the lack of playmakers at receiver, Penn State's lack of deep throws certainly isn't the quarterback's fault. The Buckeyes must contain Allar Saturday afternoon, just like they have with every other opposing quarterback so far this season. Ohio State will need to dial up some pressure on Allar in order to force him into making mistakes because he's always been known to take care of the ball.

That could be problematic for Buckeye Fans.Starting out as a classic fall football day wet,gray,breezy at times at here on the North Coast

Lots to do this morning. Hit the market yesterday so at least that's done.

Chicken Francese is on the docket, with mashed potatoes and asparagus.



For lunch I'll probably pull out a Lou's pizza since 8 of them just showed up yesterday. That or depression dogs with fries.



Before all that I need to 

A) clean the grill, which is a suckass job and makes me wish I bought a tiny grill.

B) Fix a sliding glass door.

C) Rearrange the freezers so I know what's in them.

Hopefully all done by Noon.

Good morning Max.

I admittedly slept in today. Been a little off this week. I didn't check, but it could be Covid for the 37th time. Who knows.

Second TV:

Noon: Rutgers-IU
3:30:  Bama-TN/NU-UNL/MN-Iowa flipping
8:00:  Utah-USC/Dook-FSU flipping
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Home made old family meat sauce today.  Our favorite dish of all.  


Need to fatten up my girl- she was slender before she went to Israel and came back 13 LBs lighter ( 10%)😬

Myself dropped 20 just from stress and no appetite.    (Admittedly needed to- but not that fast)

Good day to eat well- watch some great football.  Just need to run to bakery for some fresh Italian bread.

I sent the kids to the grandparents yesterday so I was definitely sleeping in. We are going out to eat with my friend's tonight at some random place I'd never even heard of.

Badge I love your post, especially because chicken francese is my favorite. I put myself through college working a family owned Italian restaurant and the head chef taught me things I still use today. That’s my favorite one.

Grill cleaning was also on my schedule this weekend. It absolutely blows!!

My final volleyball tournament as coach for my kids today.  10-12 yr olds. Will 'retire' as my youngest will move on to middle school teams next yr. If we win two today, will continue tomorrow.  We have the material to win this but nothing is more volatile than. Youth sports.  Will miss most of big noon window.

Big fall/Halloween party at friend's small farm later. 

I found a guy that comes over to clean your grill.   I have him do it.   He's so busy. He doesn't take any new customers.

yeah that is advantage PSU. Both those guys being out changes the math for OSU. Burke is OSU's best CB and Henderson might not be a tough between the tackles runner but his speed is a problem and one false step or missed tackle by a defense and he can pop one for 50-60 yards. 

If Egbuka is a game time decision and can't go either then I might have to flip my pick to Penn State.
