Well I thought it was also used to discuss the match up leading up to the actual game

Before the season started I was planning on going to this one …… any fellow huskies there?

At Allegiant Stadium, UNLV plays on a permanent or roll-in artificial turf laid over the stadium floor, which features two distinct playing surfaces.
The NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders use a massive, retractable natural grass field that rests on a 19-million-pound motorized tray moved outside for sunlight and water. The grass field is rolled out whenever UNLV has a home game.

This team is very scary. It deserves to be late night on Halloween in Vegas.

This is yet another problem with the move to the MW. Geographically, we're just WAY out of place, compared to all the other teams, and we're gonna have to endure these incredibly late start times for practically every away game.

They will clear up this miscommunication on defense. Harley is too good of a coach. Doug Pederson told me so

We aren’t just losing…….we are getting absolutely embarrassed. ELEVEN SECONDS.

EDIT 1. Very nice bounce back drive…..good to see.

Saturday is THE day for college football. The MAC only had one game today as the conference is transitioning to midweek games next week. Trying to catch a game at 5pm on a Tuesday is ridiculous. NIU is bad this year but Saturday football beats midweek games all day every day.
