Not sure on Maze but Eugene was the recruit that allegedly really soured the Les Miles/Lloyd Carr relationship. Eugene was an Army AA that committed to Michigan during the game. Right before or on signing day, Miles yoinked him from Michigan. Supposedly Miles made some unsavory comments about Carr in the process.

Yeah
Yeah
I know - was trying to be silly
BTW Maze was a UM recruit (may even have been a commit at one point).
But the Jai Eugene thingie - was where the wonderful LLoyd is sick and has to retire rumors came from.

Brian Griese is doing color commentary for the Iowa State-Oklahoma State game. I'd provide a breakdown of his performance, except that I'd have to watch a meaningless B12 game to do it.

OSU just punted from approximately the PSU 32. Would have been a 47 yard FG attempt. Punt was a touchback. That was a bad decision before the punt was a touchback, though.

Don't forget that Stanford had a buy last week and thus an extra week to prepare. I'm biased but I think Harbaugh is a heck of a coach - great game plan so far.
BUT - they need to keep scoring to beat Oregon.

I get so frustrated watching this Ohio State offense. It feels like playing a game of Madden. The person you are playing against can't do much on offense at all, their guys are constantly covered. No matter what, they just end up tucking the ball with the QB and gaining 15 yards.

I honestly think that ND fans will be more upset about this than we were about Purdue. They cannot stop Navy. I think it was Trey Wingo talking about this offense being the new "it" thing in the coming years. Maybe he was right.

Yeah

IIRC ND fans were mad pissed when their 3-9 team lost to Navy in 2007.
