UK running the ball a lot and snapping the ball under 5 on the play clock every play definitely helps. When we complete about 50% of our passes and snap the ball ASAP it turns into a marathon quick. 
 

CFB needs to get rid of the clock stopping on first downs in a bad way. 

Watching our game, I'm gonna piggyback and give each coach a challenge and thats it besides targeting review and touchdowns. A dozen reviews for every catch or drop at the 47 yard line is another 20 minutes a game.

Also, this ref is giving us some narration after every single play. That won’t speed things up.

I know Bennett won a title with Georiga last year. But man, dude is a major liability. Dude has elite talent every year and he just isn't good

I didn't think they would win one last year because of him. I blame my sister's boyfriend who is from Georgia for getting me hooked on them and the Braves.

Wonder what his buyout was. 

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 8,152]

It would be hilarious if Wisconsin hired Deion. He is literally the exact opposite of anything Wisconsin sports.

Chryst getting 16.8M. 

[Hovadipo 52,785]

Colorado fired Dorrell today too. He’s getting about $9mil. 
 

I’m telling you guys, not enough kids strive to be a fired revenue sport college coach.

Doesn't seem like a cold weather guy. Can he Zoom games and practices after October 1st?

At this point you could probably get his attention with water you can see through.

I would LOVE to be in the position of sucking at my job and having someone give me 10,15, 20 million to go away. It’s really crazy.

interesting. Not sure what in the world would cause me to agree to not be paid $5million that is owed to me.

Chryst won the B1G west three times and was coach of the year twice. 6-1 in bowl games. The difference in expectations between a solid B1G program and IU are astounding.

Going by this tweet, Chryst's getting the $11 mn now instead of over a number of years. Its speculated and its also my hunch that taking the lower amount means he doesn't have to seek a new job in order to get paid.

It looks like our OL is gonna get some guys paid. Unfortunately, not our guys.

It's kinda wild. But I guess there are Wisconsin fans who feel the program is in a decline. I hope they end up being like Nebraska after they fired Pelini.

Maybe. One plays Ohio State Penn State and Michigan State every year. 

The other plays northwestern Illinois Nebraska Purdue and mighty Iowa..
