Recruiting Football Talk VIII

The winning coach should get to dump mayonnaise on the losing coach. Or just the losing coach gets "greased" by the Duke's reps. The winning coach shouldn't have to take that mess.

Dumbest award ever.
It’s an abomination. I don’t even want us playing in this. I hate mayo that much.
 
Band Of Brothers is one of those series that is timeless. It's just as good today as it was 20 years ago. One of my all time favorites.
I saw this weekend that there is a ~2 week tour that follows “Easy Company’s” journey through Europe, led by historians.

Bet that is a hell of a trip
 
This really struck my interest seeing this stat, so I fact checked it and did some of my own digging. Nothing really substantial except that I think the 150 yards mark is a better indicator. In 75% of our losses under CJH, our rushing total was less than 150 yards. We have won a single game in which our rushing total didn’t exceed 150 and that was Pitt ‘22(that game felt pretty weird anyway).

Basically, if our rushing total exceeds 200, it’s very likely that we win. If our rushing total fails to hit 150, it’s pretty much a guaranteed loss.
If I had more time on my hands, I’d analyze how many often a low first half rushing yard total results in a loss vs a win.

Strange to have Purdue on this list. We won that game.

That would be awesome. It would be cool to rewatch, write down all the cities and towns and just have their trek through Europe. That would be cool. Actually going and I'm some ways reliving that trek through historians on the ground would be epic.

Preaching to the choir, buddy. You’ll never convince me that those refs didn’t have money riding on that game. Too bad they avoided punishment for their derelict of duty but the sad thing is the record books were never updated properly either. Screw the music city bowl and Purdue.
