half the ACC joins the BIG? |
| 3 days 13 hours ago | If the Hokies get an SEC invite |
at the same time UVA gets a BIG invite, that will go a long way towards easing the political troubles. The Hokies are a better fit in the SEC and UVA a better fit in the BIG. |

We better be in the same division with OSU. Switch IU and Purdue with us and Sparty. |

the picture of blood gushing from Zach Novak's head. Or can't we do that without compromising his eligibility? |

You are a true gentleman and a scholar. If, as you suggest, the term "Michigan Man" still has any meaning left in it, it is embodied in your person and in your work. You make me proud to be a Michigan Wolverine, and that's more than I can say for Mr. Carr, Mr. Brandon, or many of the characters in your book. |
| 36 weeks 6 hours ago | I'm not so sure I agree with Brian's conclusion |
so let's see, we scored all of our points and got most of our yards with Denard under center, but somehow the problem with the offense is that we need to run more shotgun? I understand the concern about trying to duplicate the deep ball success of that game with a QB who has never been consistently accurate with long passes, but it seems to me you are too quickly dismissing the success we had passing the ball with Denard under center. I am by no means a football expert, but it seems to me that in the same way the spread opens up running lanes for Denard, the I formation could open up space for the wide receivers. On one of the TDs (Gallon's I believe), you mentioned that ND's reaction to the I formation resulted in one on one coverage on the outside (shouldn't that have been a RPS+1 by the way?) I have fond memories of watching Desmond destroy one on one coverage game after game because defenses lined up to stop our I formation and Ace double TE sets. Now you may be right that if we can't run the ball with our RBs out of the I, defenders will cheat to the outside, but that's true no matter what formation we use. Bottom line, IMO, is that Denard can be successful in both formations, provided we don't ask him to throw the ball 50 times a game. We're in a very similar position to last year offensively. Last year the doubters wondered if Denard could hold up the whole year. They were right. This year doubters are wondering if the offense can be successful throwing "jump ball" passes. Let's hope the doubters are wrong, or Borges is smart enough to realize we need to give Denard some short or intermediate routes to work with.

| 38 weeks 1 day ago | That Ben Braden quote is 100% pure columbian awesome |
Lowell is a pretty good HS football program, and for their coach to say he was worried about his kids going against Braden, well, that's a good sign for us. |

Maybe his injuries are more significant that we've been led to believe. I wonder how serious to take the listing of BWC at the one tech. I wonder if that's just a way to keep both QWash and him happy about their progress. |
| 39 weeks 17 hours ago | A couple of "townie" places that have good food |
Several people have mentioned Casey's -- great pub food. It's small and can get kinda crowded at busy times, but service is usually top notch, and they have good daily specials. Knight's Inn over by Vets Park feels like an old-time moose lodge in its decor, but has great prime rib, pork chops, and just about any other classic meat and potatos type of food. They have a bar in the center of the restaurant with a number of TVs always turned to sports,so its a reasonable game day alternative. |
| 39 weeks 17 hours ago | Dominick's is open until T-giving |
The last few years (four or five), they've kept the restaurant open until the end of November, although they often shut down the outdoor seating when it get too cold. |
