While I did not labor through every play, I totally agree with Kamikaze Kid that JMU would have the upper hand on either team. It made me think that a super conference of 22 or so teams could not be all that far into the future.

HDuck, it may be 14 hours. But he lost the two hours he gained going west on the way over when he came back.

I never miss Bo Nix or Justin Herbert. So, yes,I watched every play of the Broncos beating the Chiefs. Family all headed to their homes before kickoff.

NJDuck I believe that providing a college football player an opportunity to excel in a better location than where that player is presently playing can hardly fall into a category of theft. OBD would simply be doing the young student-athlete a favor.

Thank you, Mike, for the wonderful Christmas morning gift!

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! A special thank you to Charles.

In 1984 the Joe Montana led 49ers went 15-1. The next year they were 9-6. Jack Nicklaus won 73 times, but didn’t win a major for three years from 1967-70. He missed the cut in more than 15% of his starts. Michael Jordan missed lots of slam dunks. It’s sports. OBD had a great first half vs JMU. They had some faux pas in the virtually meaningless second half. No team or player is “peaking” all the time. It can come and go in the blink of an eye. Fan expectations are often unrealistic.

And, there were several inches of rain in the three days before the game, stopping at noon on Friday.

As to the field condition yesterday, I know a member of the officiating crew who tells me that it was: “. . . Slick yes, cold, a bit wet”.

My wife names this game as Toilet Bowl II

It’s offensive for sure. Offends all human sensibilities.

How can a team that has the financial resources of Texas A&M, reach this level and be incapable of executing a field goal from nearer than an extra point? Gross negligence by the coaching staff, that’s how!

Ducks win 48-10 3 sacks 2 turnovers 241 yds pass

I would like OBD to play Alabama in the Semifinals. Been hoping to play them for years.

Even though I am a rabid fan who wants very much for OBD to become the national champions, for me, a successful season is graduating young men of character. I am happy for the program if that happens.
