    JMU 68, MSU 68 14 seconds to go. Sparty ball.

    Radford 29, UNC 26. Analyst: "Radford's doing a good job of hanging around." Um, I'd say so. A big "duh" moment for me -- I had no clue Walter Davis, who passed last week, was Hubert's uncle.

    Samford sends out a 5-8 kid to jump center against Edey. Hilarious.

    Wow -- what an incredible play by Penix. Great scramble. Great throw. (And the receiver did make a great catch!)

    Game Thread: IUFB vs Wisconsin Noon BTN

    Maybe run the ball??? That's been a good way to kill clock over the years.

    DeBoer was on the Dan Patrick Show today. TBH, didn't say a whole lot -- but here it is if interested. Dan didn't seem to realize that DeBoer and Penix were together at IU. Shoulda done his homework. LOL.

    Coach Curt Cignetti to INDIANA

    I think this whole talk of finding our next coach is incredibly premature. We have our next coach: Tom Allen! We're gonna win these final four games, then upset Miami-Ohio in the Quick Lane Bowl to finish 7-6. When Jim Harbaugh and Lincoln Riley leave for the NFL, our AD will panic -- thinking our coach will be poached. He'll restructure CTA's contract -- adding three years and upping his buyout to $30 million! #LEO

    Thing is -- the court already is named for Branch McCracken.

    Knew this was coming -- just didn't know when. RIP to an Indiana legend. I actually covered the team for a season at the Daily Student a long, long time ago. He yelled at me the first time I asked a question. I think that was just his way of "intimidating" me and keeping me on my toes. Later, during the NCAA tournament -- there was a room full of dozens of reporters for media sessions. You had to raise your hand and wait for a person with a mike to come to you. I was sitting up front in the middle after one of the games, so it wasn't easy to get to me. I kept raising my hand, but to no avail. Finally, Bob saw me, recognized me as someone who'd been with the team all season, and said -- "Hey, let's get to this guy down here. He's had his hand up for quite a while." Thanks, Coach -- for that and creating so many IU basketball memories over the years.

    This is interesting. Iowa fans have been bitching for quite a while about Li'l Ferentz running the offense. Notice that the news was delivered by the interim AD. Wonder if Dad couldn't bring himself to make the move -- or tell the lad he was fired?

    Label me a cynic if you wish -- but I'm calling BS on this ... I have a hard time believing Bill Self gives a rat's a$$ about players -- past or present -- getting degrees.
  17. Had Gunn been shooting a 10-footer, he'd have been on the money. Unfortunately, he was 12 feet away.
  18. Someone had to resurrect this. Might as well be me!
  19. Why call timeout? For one, it won't make any difference. For two, this is not the time to act as if you're trying to win. That was on the drive after the INT.
  20. Pull a Pat Haden-Lane Kiffin and fire CTA as soon as the plane lands. That offensive series before the fumble was absolute cowardice.
  21. Too bad PSU didn't actually gain possession for a second or two -- otherwise, it'd be a touchback.
  22. If Sorsby is hurt and can't throw, put TJ in. He can hand off just as well as Sorsby -- and if needed, actually can pass.
