Fair point. I would like to think we would've gone for it on 4th down but I doubt it.....

Well said and I agree with your post. Looking at what the score could have been, it would probably have been 20-16 because we would have just kicked the extra point after the last TD. That would have forced Oregon to score a TD to win the game. So many what-ifs in this game.....

I think it is a combination of Drake not being great in that game and Robert Morris maybe a little better than they were getting credit for after getting beat by Iowa.

Huck, do you have a link to The NY Times article on this?

I would think that 5 a.m. would put you in a pretty good spot. But that is certainly not an informed opinion! I thought about going but already going to the game and I really don't want to be outside for the entire day. Props to you and your son for toughing it out!

And if you throw in Purdue it is 0-22 (two teams 0-6 and two 0-5). Hard to believe that there are still four B1G teams looking for their first W in league play this late in the year.

Maryland would be a good spot for Fitz. They need some toughness and discipline. And Locksley can't seem to get any wins after September.

KF seems to REALLY enjoy this team. It's built strong from the O Line and D Line out, which is his kind of team. And, everyone buys into his team-first attitude and they don't get themselves into trouble off the field, for the most part. Good people. And he has said how much he enjoys...

From what I have read, Patterson is behind the other three. He is healthy and supposed to play this Saturday. I think Washington is #5 on the depth chart. He really did not perform all that well early in the season when he had a lot of carries. Lester did say this week that he wishes that...

This is what I was going to bring up. Most of their players are from warmer and dryer climates. And they are a young team. I agree it won't decide the game but I could see this being a factor. As a fan, I hate rainy game days.

I would love to visit sometime. Love the good, independent pizza joints.

100%. Worst pizza ever. And you couldn't pay me to go through that buffet. Since I moved back to Iowa City 10 years ago I haven't been to a Pizza Ranch once. And, I'm a boomer. :) Pagliai's and Wig & Pen are the only places I get pizza here. Totally different styles but both are top notch.

Good point. My earlier comment was not directed at the OP, just meant this gets brought up in general a lot.

If you keep saying this over and over, eventually you'd be right. But yes, this is dumb.

Agree on Oregon. And, a lot of these two loss teams are going to lose another game. The key will be to stay a two loss team.
