Dang…right before his first Masters.
Tony…think Tiger has a shot? I assumed him dead in the water but he’s looked pretty good. Stars would have to align though.

Personally, I’d give up a chance to play Indiana in order to come out firing on all cylinders NEXT year.
GREAT question by the way.

Gay. That dude has one hell of a leg. Did anyone else notice the trajectory and movement on that 56-yard field goal he kicked Saturday night? I sit in the NEZ so I have a straight on view of what the ball is doing when in flight and that thing changed direction about 8 times but went dead through. That was the weirdest thing I’ve seen in…[Read more]

Anyone heard about the pending arrivals of Derrick Vickers or Tareke Lewis? Checked out their Twitter accounts but don’t see anything about them coming….

Huh, weird. It’s not me. I haven’t posted anything for some time.

REALLY weird though. I used to have a dog just like that.

This is fake content put in by admin.

Backer, is there an issue? This is the 2nd empty post I’ve seen from you. Not sure how you are even managing to do that, so I’m wondering if something is messed up.

UteBacker replied to the topic Can somebody please explain to me why Ohio State is in the playoffs? in the forum Football 1 year, 6 months ago

The goal of the playoff committee is to select the 4 best teams. Conference championships are only there to put on resumes. I agree with you, Yoda, that winning your own division is probably a pretty huge part of the equation.

I tried to think of it like this…. who would I take in a head-to-head battle if I had $100 to bet straight…[Read more]

Awesome review! You have me totally excited to see this team. I had no idea what to expect from this almost entirely new group. We played an inferior team but at least we did exactly what we supposed to do.

UteBacker replied to the topic Sports Radio in the forum Misc 1 year, 7 months ago

You’re dead-on Cincy. I listen to podcasts most of the time. I like that I can listen to only the topics I like. I have a Utes podcast, a Pac12 podcast, and a national college football podcast that I enjoy. I also like the limited commercials on a podcast. ESPN national shows are so commercial heavy that they have become unbearable.
