Now the game can't be tied for the end of the game FG.

calling for snow in Buffalo?

Sunday night temperature of 1 degree.  That said, the AFC will be the afternoon game.  So, it won't be that bad.

Always wear the same clothes. Never apply deodorant. And sit in the same chair every game. It works maybe 1/3 the time.

Well, I know why we lost.  I watched today's game completely naked, lathered my entire body in lavender scent lotion, and watched the game on my laptop while sitting on my front lawn.

Next Sunday's weather forecast tells me I should root for KC.  

I gotta feeling the coaching staff will let the team know today's performance was unacceptable.

Me?  I missed you.  

Not a fan of head coaches doing this.

After yesterday all I can think about is another Bengals-49ers Super Bowl. A blast from the past! 

They played two great ones.

You were born in 1928?

We lost twice to Purdue in 1928.  Officiating must have been bad back then as well.  

This is going to be one hell of a game.  

Is he practicing?   I saw footage on 'The Journey; last week on BTN that showed him practicing.  I assumed it was fairly recent footage, but maybe it was from earlier in the year.

So, it sounds like it was a good decision to watch football and record the game 😁

Yes.  But, I have to question why you wouldn't flip over a check on the Hoosiers when the football game was 27-3.

Give them 35 minutes a game and i am sure they could do better

As a coach, I'm sure you have an understanding and appreciation for Player Efficiency Rating (PER).  For those that may not be familiar, it measures a player's impact while they are on the floor, regardless of how much they play.  Higher number, the better.  Now, this does not include today's game yet, but I've highlighted our PGs.

Bad shots, bad passes, hero ball

6 assists

6 rebounds

3 steals

2 turnovers

What part of that stat line screams 'hero ball'?  X obviously kicked your dog or something, because you are not objective about him at all.

As disappointed as I am in this loss at least the Titans, Packers and Bucs lost this weekend to make me a little happier lol. 😁 

I didn't think the NFL could get any crazier than yesterday's finishes, but the Rams/Bucs game did just that.  Rams blow a 27-3 lead and have no time outs with 40 seconds left.  Unbelievably, the Bucs decide not to cover Cooper Kupp on a deep ball.

I was coaching my own team thursday on the road

Fair enough.  So, as a coach, what did you see today that makes you think Xavier Johnson is not one of our 5 best players.

Serious question. Did we ever lose more than a couple home games with Sampson? I remember UConn and Jim Calhoun came into assembly hall when we were the #6 team in the nation and beat us…Of course the game where Brian “Polar Bear” Butch banked in a 3 against us….but at the top of my head I can’t think of anymore. 

Well, we all know why Kelvin Sampson is not here any longer.  And, his tenure is the reason why we have been struggling to get back to where we want to be.  

That was absolutely crazy,

, I'll live with the Hoosiers laying an egg.  .

Just a word of warning if you do watch.  It's not an egg.  It's a turd.

Would give that unit a shooter

Who would never be able to get open.

I know it won't happen but I would like Galloway start and put Kopp on the bench.  Also we need to be able to get Stewart and Kopp more shots since they were 4-7 from 3

Having Kopp coming off the bench bogs down the second unit.  Now, if you want to move Leal ahead of him in the rotation, I'll listen.  But a 2nd unit of Phin, Kopp, Geronimo, Durr, and Bates does not have enough ball movement on offense.

Best 5

Rob, galloway, race, tjd, geronimo

Xavier Johnson's line today 

• 14 pts
• 6 boards
• 6 assists
• 3 steals

He didn't play half-bad on Thursday night either.

BTW.  We missed you Thursday.  I hate it that you always seem to be busy when IU plays well.

Let's be real.  Michigan's record does not reflect the quality of the Wolverine team.  Losing by 18 is reflective by how we played.  But, losing the game is not a surprise at all.  

The basketball Gods preordained that loss.  Caught Michigan on absolutely the wrong day.

Man... Why do I keep wishing to see a horseshow on the side of his helmet??  🙄

Well, if his main goal is an easy path to the playoffs, the AFC South has just the right mix of teams for that to happen.
