Note: I wanted a photo of Crippen but Flickr has a bug right now that won't let us access most of our images.

Things Discussed:

• Nebraska: Hero is Greg Crippen, stretch blocker extraordinaire. M is a stretch team, which emphasizes your center. Playing two backup guards but they were good too (mostly—2 errors for Guarnera, 3 for Efobi). Link…sometimes he just doesn't know what he's doing, still leagues better than last year.
• When El-Hadi comes back who plays?
• Bryce Talk: Getting him rolling out, getting him comfortable, defenses are screen-hunting.
• Lindsey: Great gameplan, was calling it well, got Michigan a lot of Ws.
• Defense: Seeing young guys step up. Trey Pierce is a star in Run D, ended the first drive himself, was a big part of M's stretch defense. Cole Sullivan is a wow player who still makes mistakes but is going to be crazy good. Jayden Sanders: maybe he's just a starting cornerback. Worthy of trust out there.
• Gotta talk to Wink: It's not just the big things; what he was doing on the Hail Mary was far too cute. There were 14 RPS-1s in the charting, which means he was trying to be the playcaller who won the game. It shouldn't be about the playcaller.
• Ohio State at Washington: UW has a shot because they have those great skill position players. Jonah Coleman is the best RB in the Big Ten, Boston is the 2nd best WR in the country, and teams struggle going out west to that slippery field. But OSU tends to win these games, and they're a more complete team, even if they're not the same offense they've been, because UW has worse lines.
• Oregon-Penn State: Franklin will find a way to lose, PSU's season has holes that the scores don't tell.
