Are Chris and Kirk required to talk up Manning's good start?  They know it's just the rehearsed first 10-15 plays.  You can't take anything away from the first drive of a game to suggest how the rest of the game will play out.

They must know this.

It's weird.  Like part of the pumping up celebrities only to then tear them down thing.  Gross.

Badger night game, great crowd,  great defense so far and a competent offense.   Go Badgers!

I have no idea what to make of this Gopher team. Look like trash everywhere, let Iowa score in two plays, then somehow out Iowa Iowa. 

First time since October 1978 that the Gophers hold all three classic trophies.

His helmet was ripped off/not ripped off which caused the clock to stop/not stop. The refs just chose their own adventure on that one.
seems like the season to try out alot of new things at that position. Having fun getting creative/destructive
