Similar to Coach Tom Allen, I believe Coach Deboer to be excellent at his particular coaching niche (Offensive Coordinator) and perhaps less adept at the Head Coach position.  This is why I believe he and Allen together were successful at IU; Allen had the D covered and Deboer was fantastic at play calling; together they were very successful (by IU standards).  Penix was the difference for Deboer at Wash.

DeBoer’s record as a head coach is 113-17.  That’s pretty adept.  He’s killed it at every level.  I think Alabama is going to need a short adjustment period because I’d imagine DeBoer’s culture and way of doing things is a little different than they’ve been used to for the past couple decades.  If Alabama decides they don’t want to be patient, he’ll have a long, long, long list of suitors.

He'll be back in the playoff within 5 years of Bama pulling the plug and they'll still be sitting there with their thumbs firmly planted asking themselves what happened.

Poop man, he still might be in the CFP this year. It's just one game and the sky is falling in Tuscaloosa.

He has some horrendous vibes to battle through, but you're right. I'll never count him out.

Haliburton on the Fox pre-game show and NOT in a boot. Leinart needs to stay the hell away from him. He steps on that foot and I will knock  him out. Ok, maybe not, but I’ll rebuke him very sternly.

Christ's sakes, I think Minnesota thinks they can make the CFP if they beat the worst FCS team by 100+

Weird to see a manning be able to run more than the bare minimum.

Dangit, you made me think a one point safety happened.

Iowa has an incredible knack for making every game they play boring as hell.

That was a quarterback completely confused with a coaching staff that seemed to be yelling “your a qb figure it out”
