The WR makes a great catch, they mention his family watching him play, including a brother from Alaska.
Do we have a camera on them?  Nah, stupid idea.

All the cameras are on a certain box seat.

I don't know why, but I thought they might have a rough season. I just did not think it would manifest itself against Miami of Ohio. Good defense, but it appears they have found a way to test whether they will exceed Brian Ferentz's 2022 and 2023 offenses.

However, this means I will be watching tonight's game on MUTE. No doubt the announcers will be FAWNING over Travis Kelce every chance they get. No doubt the cameras will hone in for lengthy shots on Travis Kelce MORE than any player or coach. And when they can't focus on Travis Kelce, they will force comparisons between Dylan Raiola and Patrick Mahomes.

🤣 was I wrong? 🤣

UAB is twelving against Alabama State.  Ouch.

First twelving game of 2025.

not impressed with Rhule's start to season #3

I don't think the Bearcats or the Huskers are very good
Of course the first game can be deceiving

I guess you just take the one score win and hope for improvement

Jeez. Not only was that a terrible decision by the UC QB, it was just a bad throw too.

Sometimes you try to live too mas. I respect his spirit and gumption, although if I was a not very good passing quarterback, I would not have done that.

Random thoughts from Wisconsin game
-Another fucking quarterback injury
-New offense looks to my liking technically, but two offensive lineman were causing issues with translating that into success
-only field goal kicked looked very nice
-Back up quarterback, looked better than last year’s in a number of ways, but also somehow worse in a few ways, which I do not appreciate
-defense absolutely smooshed them, and I thought they still could’ve played a little more crisp. Definitely had a solid handful of missed 1-on-1 tackles in the backfield with the chance to sack a mobile quarterback.

I don’t enjoy coming out of an opener, pointing in a couple of big spots that need to be shored up, but if the starting QB can come back, I am at least interested in some of these things can develop.

Jeebis seeing all of this and thought they took a dump and a very bad one,rough crowd. Hey take a W and move on expectations be damned. At least wait until they get thru the meat of the order - Tide,Walvies,Hawks,Bucks & Ducks,they might surprise someone
