It was nice to watch something other than wildfire coverage which is on 24/7. Got my mind off of the horror around me at least temporarily.

Someone said it last week I think but it sure seems like Allar puts too much air under almost every single pass he makes.

My HS homeroom teacher (ND football alum) claimed the B10 wouldn't let ND in during the 1920s due to Ohio State being run by Irish catholic hating kkk members at the time but of course now they won't join due to sharing money.

Aller didn’t complete a single pass to a WR the entire game. That’s insane. I have never understood the hype with him. Insanely average.

Actually it goes back to comments made by Michigan coach Crisler(sp) back in the day

Whatd he say? My teacher was a pretty sarcastic guy who tried to rile people to so I took his words with a grain of salt.

Sorry it's after midnight where I am and my computer and laptops have been off for awhile(posting this on my phone) and I'mheaded for bed, If you're that interested I suggest Google.

Goes back way further than that, at least to 1909, when the Irish defeated the Wolverines and Michigan's Fielding Yost cancelled the following season's rematch on the grounds that ND had ineligible players.

Yost and ND's Knute Rockne did not get along. ND wanted to join the "Western Conference" and Yost led the opposition. Crisler continued the policy that kept ND off Michigan's schedule until the late '70s.

Maisel: History of hate

Fans aren't alone in their hatred. Coaches have it for one another -- and it has altered the sport.

Google AI said they lost to em in the 1940s and then didn't schedule em for decades. Not sure if that's why they were black balled from the entire conference but maybe.

Elsa Pataky……you will not be disappointed with a Google image search of her. She is also married to Thor, Chris Hemsworth.

Trivia: Elsa was the actual woman who did the finale kiss w/Thor in The Dark World as Natalie Portman was out & unavailable that filming day.

A perpetual football season with super-abundant network hype has left me with a "Frankly my dear..." attitude about the whole thing. Never thought it could happen to me, but...there it is.

More fiber….

Please update us daily on your safety until that hellscape is done.

overall quality of play has gotten so bad recently. These young unproved players are making too much $$$ and coaching is getting worse. These two QBs are part of the final four teams? Smh.

Would've never thought that last year watching Duke.

Same can be said about Will Howard, although he did show flashes.

Having really good defenses with good OLs and good RBs allows a team to still be great without elite quarterback play

Interesting morning so far. There have been 9 people in the "Waiting Approval" queue...5 from Moscow and 2 from the Ukraine. I guess bowl games are a hot topic during breaks from the war?

In Russia, war breaks on you.
