My goodness!! 385 yards and 8 TDs in a game. Patterson is putting on a show against Kent St.

Patterson vs Tuggle in a heavyweight fight next week. Sounds like a real boxing match.

In all honesty, I'm stacking the box against Buffalo and making Van Trease beat me in the air. He is 11/21 with less than a 170. So he only passes when he needs to. There has to be a minimum of eight men in the box next week. And we can't forget about Buffs backup running back K. Marks Jr.

They literally run stretch left and stretch right. Nothing extraordinary. LBs have to be in the right hole every play next week.

Can't wait!

Buffalo if they can win next week at Ohio will lock up the East division. Final game is against Akron which is not only easy it doesn't even matter when they have victories over Miami, Kent and Ohio.

Ohio if they win against Buffalo secures a winning record, which means one of those contracted MAC bowl opportunities. Still would have to get past Kent St the week after that for the East title.

Bobcats to a degree caught a break with Akron and BG early in the schedule for a built in tune up.

If Ohio loses next week, any chance Ohio and Miami agree to make up their game on 12/19?

Buffalo can COVID its way to MAC East title. Call in sick vs. Ohio and pound Akron. Yes?

Seems possible--no independent conference observers on campuses to cross-test players who have been put on the positive list.

I'm just saying that Buffalo has huge incentive to do this. Win the MAC East, no travel costs, etc. If Ohio doesn't play, they can't win MAC East. Hopefully, everyone stays healthy and we see a game next Saturday.

Hmmm. . . maybe Harbaugh can do something similar. Perhaps the Wolverines decide not travel to Columbus in a couple of weeks, keeping o$u from playing the big 10 minimum of 6 games. What a way for Harbaugh to go out.

It would certainly assure them an appearance in Detroit, that's for sure.

You have ZERO concept of the policy. This is not just put people on a report because you want to or not. That is not how that works.

Been trying to find documents that outline the procedure but have come up empty on MAC rules. Can you shed light on how the tests are reported to the league without ANY possibility of fixing?

Pete and Shoeless Joe are in the Hall

Gaylord never doctored the ball, cork and bats have never mixed, McGuire and Sosa top the Babe and the Astros were pure

No balls had more or less air than required

And DJ never tested positive for being "Great with Child"

So their actual plan was to give Ohio covid so Ohio would have to call off the game. Ingenious and devious.
