I’ve been watching the Neb/Iowa game,,,,
Martinez started, two drives, nothing
LMcCaffrey comes in for two drives and gets two field goals
Martinez comes back in and get two TD drives.....
Nothing since. McCaffrey still riding pine.....

Luke looked lost last week after such a great start the previous week...
His two drives today, he looked confident, missed a throw or two, but looked good.

Get the kid back in there...,,,

Thanks for the heads up!

Iowa also wins - now 4-2.

Can anyone confirm Sam Howell's full background - on his fathers side?

Pop looks white, talks normal....All good here....
I’ll root for the kid.....

Ben Skowronek 13 yard TD Run on the end -around / jet sweep!
Every week Freshman TE Michael Mayer gets called "Baby Gronk"

What's the word with his Dad? Agreed w Rocky on Sam Howell

Erratic rotation going on with QB's Martinez & Luke McCaffrey(42 yards rushing 5 carries) ....looks like the Cornhuskers started 6 white players on Defense (including all 4 LBers)
Iowa LB Jack Campbell stood out ...Nick Neimann led the Hawkeyes in tackles 11
D-lineman Zach VanValkenburg had game winning Fumble recovery

8 games postponed or cancelled so far this week.

It's too bad Oklahoma vs WVU was postponed. WVU seems to have been playing better defensively the past few weeks.

Ian Book with a nifty play there to convert for the first down. I hope he has a strong pre draft process. Although the Notre Dame QB he does not get nearly the appreciation or attention he deserves. Fun QB to watch.

Iowa State TE Charlie Kolar Showing why he's an NFL Prospect! 6 receptions for 131 yards & TD! Brock Purdy 312 yards passing
Texas QB Sam Ehlinger 298 yards passing & TD + 65 yards rushing & TD Run of 17.....

Yes indeed Leonardfan...nice play by Ian Book! Under rated for sure!

Kolar is a monster. Glad to see Purdy put quality starts in back to back weeks. Both of them could go to the NFL this year but I'd love to see them back in the Big 12 for a normal 2021 season.

Iowa St has two other monster TEs - Dylan Soehner and Chase Allen

Ehlinger far from the problem with the Longhorns. He's going to get torn apart during the pre draft process unfortunately. He's a great qb and athlete - one of the best the Longhorns have ever had. The defense is the Achilles heel and has been for about a decade now.

Dominating drive by Notre Dame there. They are without two of there starters - Tommy Kraemer and Jarrett Patterson. With two white OL down, two new ones have stepped up in Zeke Correll and Joshua Lugg. 4/5 OL are white. Both starting LT Liam Eichenberg and RT Robery Hainsey should be considered top 3 round NFL draft prospects. Tommy Kraemer also has NFL pedigree.

Chad Magyar sighting in the blow out - 2 carries 9 yards

I saw the box score and noticed he must’ve dropped to 3rd/4th string....Disappointing

Brett Brenton for Wyoming got 3 carries for 41 yards in trash time....

Thanks...had let my guard down after watching a few UNLV games w Magyar nowhere to be found ...wonder if a pre season injury bumped him down the depth chart?

Interesting, found this article after a quick search on duck.

The writer wrongly calls Miller not being offered a Scholarship an anomaly. They were dumbfounded why he wasn't after a successful HS career.
Yes indeed Bucky! THANKS for posting that! Always look forward to your feedback!
LOL!! I posted this in the hidden So.Florida team thread last month...had wondered if i should have added in the WR thread instead??

Thanks for the heads up....Sorry i missed that....just like Magyar ...garbage time stuff...3 - 41 is a nice average!

Didn't get to see much of the Eastern Michigan looking at stats Samson Evans had a rough game.. ; but former Walk-on WR Tanner Knue did have 6 rec for 91 yards

Wanted to see Mike Epstein vs. the Buckeyes tomorrow ; but the game is OFF now

Looks like Jake Funk / Maryland should be back in action finally! Don't want to jinx anything!

Eastern Michigan WR Hassan Beydoun and his parents in the picture. Beydoun and Tanner Knue have been an incredible duo for Eastern the first 4 games. Beydoun (25-276) and Knue (20-282-1) are by far their top statistical receivers this season. Obviously, Beydoun is from some sort of Arabic descent but he’s also pretty white. I’m rooting for the guy, I’d like to hear what you guys think!

I shot him a message on twitter letting him know that Miller is not an anomaly but the norm when it comes to white athletes.

I didn't watch the game but can't believe that Oregon lost. Looks like that all afflete with poly infusion defense is doing wonders. Oregon State's team composition is just as bad.

I'm guessing Ethan Bonner didn't get any playing time yesterday. Don't see his name in the stat sheet. DE Thomas Schaffer is a monster 6'7" 301 lbs had two sacks.

Not the greatest day of games. I wouldn't mind seeing the Cade McNamara led Wolverines send Franklin to 0-6.

Hoping for Jake Funk to have a big day running the ball against.

ECU - SMU should have white WRs making plays for both teams.


Also Jason Whitlock seems to be getting grief for criticizing Vanderbilt bringing a female kicker onto the roster for the game today. I agree with his take that Vanderbilt is doing this for publicity and Mason is trying to save his job after another terrible season at the helm.

No Funk.....
A covid sit out?

Now it’s Tua2 vs Indiana. Ugghhh

I watched the EMU game.
Evans hardly carried the ball....They had him stuffed the whole game....
Big fumble on a pitch at the end of the game (he should’ve caught it)

Is he not on the sidelines? Maybe they just kept him out for the 1st drive? I can't find him on an injury report.

@TwentyTwo no wonder the article looked familiar, I had already read it once when you posted it! My bad, but definitely worth another share.

The announcers said, “No signs oof Jake Funk”

I’ve got the game DVR’ed .....

He “seems to be missing”. The announcers said again.....

I’ll check into it every now and then.....
