So CMU is being investigated for knowingly allowing Michigan sign-stealing scout - wearing CMU gear - to stand on their sideline vs. Mich. State? How did I miss this?
It slipped through the cracks at some point during the investigation last week as an internet sleuther found him on the CMU sidelines wearing their gear. McIlwain had to answer questions from the media about it - from what I understand they had no idea who he was or how he got there but they're cooperating fully with the NCAA. Whether you choose to believe they did or didn't know is up to you, but I find it hard to believe a guy could make his way onto an NCAA sideline (with a pass!) and nobody knew about it.
I've had passes to OU's sidelines several times through the Frank years several times and I'm 100% positive no one on the coaching staff could recognize me in a police lineup.

@CFBCampustour will be in the house. Are there any obstructed view seats in Peden?

it depends what you're trying to see.

It's hard to see the burrito buggy from anywhere but the south side of the west stands.

Gonna be tough to see the Buggy from there if the rumored petting zoo is finished/installed over before next season.

I believe it's possible to slip onto the sideline for a MAC game. Never forget, this happened at the ACC tournament a few years ago in basketball:

And standing in the team box next to coaches. This doesn't happen without someone providing the access. And being a MAC school and coaching ties to Big10 schools in your back yard, easy to see how this was arranged by someone on that staff.

Wasn't wearing team shoes though. Someone missed that detail.

CMU payoff could be in recruiting. Example: CMU wants someone and UM is ho hum about the kid. One coach from each school goes to visit the kid together and the UM coach tells him if you go to CMU and really produce we promise you'll then be high on our portal list and perhaps then you can finish your degree at prestigious University of Michigan and get NFL looks!

Kurtis only needs 233 yards to pass Nate for #2 all-time in career passing yards at OU.

To steal from the Basketball blog…we are 5-27 all time against these guys. It should be obvious to everyone we will win this one. We are just “due” to win since we have lost 5 in a row. So, please just give us the win!

Casper, I think we have more 3-star athletes than we did during most of this dreadful series. That alone should assure victory! ;-)

Broke a few longer runs last game and it sure would be nice to see that become a trend.

Ditto, Casper 71! And, now we have the never-been-defeated-while-wearing uniform combination. How can we not win by 30 points? Lots of money to be made in Vegas on this one by any one who knows how read the signs!

Ran it up the middle on 1st and 10, but not 3rd and 2. Settle for a FG. AWESOME.

That third down play is a first or second down play.

Run the ball or run a pass where you have an option to check off. Not a quick wing and a prayet!

Defense and kick coversge looks awesome

Can anyone tell me if Dustin Fox played for Ohio State?

This play calling is horrific for the 8th week in a row. I suspect we're not going to see this offense improve at all this season.

Thank the lord for this defense.

Drink any time Dustin Fox mentions Ohio State. Use beer, not shots or you'd already be dead.
