2-21 @ Michigan
2-22 @ Purdue
1-8 @ Nebraska
That’s 6-74.
They’ve won at all four of those schools this season.

Coach Yo: "You know how I got this job? I called Ole Miss and I say: What are you guys doing? I'm hot. And y'all can get me for cheap. I'm recruiting my butt off with a $20,000 recruiting budget. Give me yours and watch what I do."

Let's take stock of Micah Parsons' absurd afternoon so far:
-14 tackles
-7 solo tackles
-3 TFLs
-2 sacks
-2 forced fumbles
-2 pass break-ups

And yes, there's still 12 minutes left in the game.

Ole Miss is the only team in Power 5 college football that has 3 receivers with 500+ yards. Tre Harris and Dayton Wade both surpassed that threshold this week.
LSU and A&M are the only other SEC teams with 2.

Confused by the Kirk Ferentz comments on all fronts.
Even if you *do* think the Penn State players were going down on purpose, which makes little sense, what on earth do you have to gain by saying it?
What does he achieve by taking shots at injured college kids?

That's going under the radar and it shouldn't. Big-time from Sam Gregg and the USM OL. Play-calling deserves credit for that, too.
