Week 11 Other Games Thread

I don't like going for 2 there. I didn't like it when we did it and don't when they just did it. The team that just came back has all the momentum so...

Same here. I have never been a fan of that. Keep your chances alive. I know some will say that it is just settling for a tie, but it isn't, because of OT.

So CBS believes a one loss Bama which won't even win their division should beat out a one loss Big 12 champ for the CFP. lol

I'm gonna get flamed for this, but I somewhat agree … this year.
Just look at today. BU is highly ranked, but had trouble with, and probably should have lost, to a below average playing TCU.
Oklahoma just had ISU storm back on them in Norman. (And are lucky ISU went for 2)
Texas and K State are total jekylll and hyde. Same with OSU.

I would normally argue that it means we are a more competitive league, but we have quite a few teams under performing.

Bama's loss, if they win out, is against a great LSU Squad. Georgia has a tougher claim because of who they lost to. But they also have a heavy in the ooc schedule. And if LSU wins out and get in, then Georgia is out. So that bad loss is not a factor. A one loss Big 10 team could have an argument if it were Minn or Ohio State.

OU might have a claim as a 1 loss. Not bu.

That’s what the review was for...to remind the officials about the outcome if they might have forgotten

I thought review was to find a reason to disallow the catch.

One thing I miss ab out the Mountain West is some of the destination games. They really have a good list of places now.

Felt pretty good in Boise in 2011...and Morgantown in 2012.

I guess excessive celebrations and penalties for removing helmets and dancing on the field are relics of the past

Boise wins in OT

 

[Moose Stuff]

I love this dude. No shock his team is winning for him.....

 

[Realtorfrog]

I liked the call to go for two! On the road, hostile environment. Confidence in your offense. Almost had it, but the other receiver was wide open.

Felt stupid in Norman in 2015. Didn't work for that team last night. Doesn't work more than it does.

If he slips out of the tunnel he might get trampled.

We can agree on this, I knew he was a steal when they hired him.

 

[Chongo94]

His ex-wife is smoking hot. I want to say he seems like a good dude but those Michigan people from whichever directional Michigan school he was at seem to really hate him.

He’s doing wonders for Minnesota and I’m glad. They seem to be great fans and deserve some success.

We should hire him

 

[Moose Stuff]

We should hire him

I heard he has a nice house on the river up there. Could be a tough one.

@Chongo94 Take a lap and you know why....

Yep...it's a good time to be a Gopher!

Haha. Well I couldn’t find the really good picture of her. It seems to have been scrubbed from the internet sadly. Was her in a bikini. She looks far better than his current wife who looks like he picked up at an establishment on the fringes of Vegas but different strokes for different folks. Here’s an old pic of the first one....

It's on Lake Minnetonka, which has a lot of very high-end homes. It's Minnesota's 9th largest lake and in the SW suburbs of Minneapolis.
