Dread Pirate Robert Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) It will be interesting to see how Burrow fares in the NFL. Especially when it comes to quarterbacks, Heisman winners often turn out to be flops in the NFL.

laughedatbytime Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 It will be interesting to see how Burrow fares in the NFL. Especially when it comes to quarterbacks, Heisman winners often turn out to be flops in the NFL. An article about some of them since 2000: https://www.radio.co...re-busts-in-nflthis is true, but a lot of these quarterbacks were never projected to have games that would translate to the NFL. Weinke (who was about 29 as a college senior), Crouch, Troy Smith, and Tebow were commonly thought not to be high picks. Injuries got White, Bradford, and RG III. Manuel was a clusterfuck. The only one scouts missed out on, for the most part, was Leinart. So, provided he can stay healthy, given that Burrow is held in high regard, he should be good. Of course, he has to play behind a suspect O Line, so health is not a given, especially because he doesn't seem to have valued self preservation that highly in college. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Pirate Robert Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) I must confess that I have now watched the NCG about 10 times. I don't know if I will ever get tired of watching it. It is a pleasure to see Clemson take that early lead 17-7 only for LSU to outscore them 35-8 the rest of the way, every time.

goose Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) Notre Dame barely hanging on to a 7-pt lead over UNC at 24-17. This after a 17-17 tie at the half. First and goal for ND, though. Will last-minute score make this look like a better win than it was...? ETA: Yes. Good defensive showing for ND.

Principled Man Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 (edited) University of Buffalo running back Jaret Patterson rushed for 409 yards and an NCAA record-tying 8 touchdowns. He was pulled late in the game, 18 yards short of Samaje Perine's record of 427 yards (2014). Edited November 29, 2020 by Principled Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You own the league's commissioner and apparently the school presidents, they're willing to change the rules they made during the season to protect your divine right to a spot in the championship game and maybe the CFP. While you are one of the four best teams in the country, I hope the CFP committee doesn't reward the big 10's brazen flouting of their own rules and "overlooks" them for their spot. Or, even better, Northwestern wins the championship game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
