Here we are again. Wisconsin is back, but Maryland and Ohio State sit.

No cooking today. We are going out to eat and hear a band (outside), and then come home to watch more football (Wisconsin football, that is).

Should be a fun day of football.

I like the early starts. It's easy to watch more football after (hopefully) a satisfying win. This 7:30 stuff - not a fan.

This makes all the sense. If you're doing what you're doing, the only person it creates issues for is coaches, and to them and the problem of schematic prep, I am not sympathetic

Just got back from a run, too.  Weather's kinda warm and muggy, I jumped in the pool to cool off.

I used to watch Gameday religiously, back when it was only an hour and the 24/7 sports news cycle wasn't as prevalent, so the content was more fresh and condensed.  But I haven't watched it in years, maybe a decade.  At the tailgate party we always had Gameday on one of the TVs, and EPL soccer on the other, until the 11 AM games kicked off.

Horns are off this weekend for a regularly-scheduled bye week, and the ags are off for COVID reasons, so I doubt we'll watch any football today.  Daughter has her 2nd-to-last soccer game of the season so we'll be doing that at midday.

I've prepped bacon wrapped little smokies for the oven

there will be plenty of bacon fat so sliced up some red onion to saute in the grease while baking

also, chopped some fresh salsa.  2 hot peppers instead of one.  Gonna require some beer!

Bloody Mary ingredients at the ready!

AC/DC radio on Pandora!

I'm about ready, just need to raise the Husker flag and sing the school song!

With Iowa's blowout of Minnesota last night the Hawkeyes maintained their streak of, so far, doing better against each of their opponents than any other team.


This will change once the PU/NU game is played later today because the winner will have done better than Iowa did but still, I think Iowa is considerably better than their .500 record suggests.

Interesting. 

So, suppose Wisconsin had still been unable to play this weekend. Thus Michigan (Wisconsin) and Ohio State (Maryland) would have had no opponents. Would they have played with their game later in the season as a rematch?

How is the ranch and bacon dip? Is it hot, crock pot?

I have a buffalo chicken dip that I like, a crab dip that I like, and a spinach and artichoke dip that I like. I'd be interested in trying the ranch and bacon dip if you don't mind sharing the recipe. 

I have a triple crock pot that I use and I'd try new alternatives.

Heh can't vouch for it because I never made it before.

M (https://www.spendwithpennies.com/crack-dip/)y wife loves the imperial crab dip at Bonefish Grill, and I figured I'd try to make it.  Then I thought, hey, already have the stuff for buffalo dip, so might as well make that.  Then I thought why not make a third dip, and that one looked easy and I just had to buy the ranch dressing mix so why not.

I would guess that they would have knocked it out early in order to make sure that they get the game in. 

Create an open date for each team when the game was initially supposed to transpire.

Yeah, just got the TV on and tuned to this pillow fight, and thinking I'm going to have to watch anything else.

Been a full morning so far. Took the dog for a walk, hit the driving range, got my shower in while my wife got caught up on Grey's Anatomy, and now ready for some football... Or the Masters, given this lopsided score...

No cooking for me today. FIL's b-day, so we'll go over there for lasagna. Of course it has to be scheduled to start right in the middle of the 2nd half of the Purdue game. I really wish all my people here in Southern California would look at Purdue's football schedule before making plans. Rude.

I know you're the "Bay Area Badger", but you moved back east somewhere, right? Originally Bay Area, but not any longer?

I personally like Gameday as background noise. But here it's from 6-9 AM, so it's more of something to turn on while I'm getting my morning caffeine into my system than an active "game prep" sort of thing. Especially since the topic of Purdue basically doesn't come up anyway, since we're not a helmet or relevant team at this point. 

If it was 9-noon rather than 6-9 AM, I'd be finding other stuff to do. 9-noon is more valuable time that I could actually accomplish something.

By this logic, Miami should be favored today, due to their 243 days of sunshine per year, over Blacksburg's 215.  Add to that western VA's reliance on coal for power and jobs, and the Canes have it. 

Perhaps it's hurricane season's expiring in October that has moved the line? 



And we all know it's always sunny in Liberty, save for 3 dark days every spring.

A team that is good at football can still fall victim to random acts of terrible luck that cause them to lose. A team can be crappy at football and get lucky breaks that cause them to win. SP+ and other advanced stats (and Vegas) are looking at that.

How to make Chinese fried rice

  • Fry the rice by lightly browning in a pan or wok.
  • Stir-fry the onions, garlic, and carrots until tender.
  • Make a large well in the center of the pan with the rice.
  • Pour in the whisked eggs and scramble until small curds form.
  • Soy sauce is optional but adds a savory flavor to the rice.


I hate eggs in my fried rice.  

But your point is lost on them.  They don't believe in their product enough to make as much sales as they'd like for non-breakfast foods.  They figure if they're going to be relegated to one meal per day, they should own it.  And they do.

I fixed a nice egg omelet for the wife this morning.  She slept later than usual.  I use one egg when I make fried rice.  The key I find is getting the rice fried, I use some hot oil to literally fry it without making it too greasy.

The egg on a pizza thing in France is odd for us, but they have a powerful egg lobby there as well.  Des ouefs.

Virginia Tech really flamed out Vs Miami after leading the whole game. Big reason the Hokies stopped moving the ball enough was their QB holding onto the ball WAY too long and not throwing downfield for whatever reason. Canes late game pass coverage flipped the game their way.

Even in 2020, God doesn't want to see OT between Rutgers and Illinois.
Of course he wants to hurry up and get over and watch M get theirs

I just had this weird premonition that Michigan beats Wisconsin, no idea why, 27-17.
Not weird - whack

 then on next play this sorry ass defense gives up a 30 yard run on a reverse.

Why do I even watch these losers? They are a pathetic sad sack of shit.
sounds like me on sundays

Yeah, it came to me out of nowhere, and left just as quietly.

I was figuring in this weird season something like this could happen I guess.

So, Wisconsin is probably pretty good, and Michigan is demonstrably not very good at all.

This team is a god damn joke. Milton threw a fricken bullet on the run that hits Eubanks right in both hands- and butterfingers lets it go right through his hands up into the air and Wisconsin whiteboy safety makes a ridiculous 1 hand diving int
Ya as you said he fires everything on a straight line 1,000 mph

The announcers were wondering about the line for Miami @ VT, and now we know why VT was favored:  the Canes barely had enough players to play the game.
I'm happy the Canes covered
unfortunately, I took Penn State -3

I hit 5 of 6.  Might get me 2nd place $$$

The disparity in rushing yards for UW/UM was astonishing.

Obviously it's a weird year, but some teams have really fallen off.  Georgia is not as good as their preseason ranking obviously, but they probably can beat the lesser teams consistently.  PSU and UM have basically collapsed and looked bad doing so.

Maryland has a pulse and Indiana looks dangerous.

The book on him preseason was that he was highly raw, but they just had to go with him, right? That would be the pitfall of that situation.

This really opens up a lot of possibilities.

I don't think that Northwestern, Indiana and Purdue necesarily got all that much better, just that everyone else got quite a bit worse.

Indiana seems better, but they seem to me to have been gradually improving for years now.

Yeah, I don't think that the Hoosiers finally got over the hump vs Michigan and Penn State because of their improvement, so much as Michigan and Penn State becoming hilariously bad overnight.

Going to guess that's the first time a player rushed for over 300 yards while their team lost.

Nm.  Can't read a box score apparently.

You would have been wrong anyway. Hell, WVU has had a player rush for over 300 yards twice against Oklahoma in the last 8 years and lost both games.  One of them was a 56-28 blowout.
