really?

Cardale Jones said this, apparently it was kind of a joke or something - it's funny because I believe he came back to school for an extra year and ended up graduating and was proud of it.

Until he kills your kid, ala Durkin.

i am curious to see the video of the practice that day - if durkin is on the field, for example. he'll be fired and the sooner the do it the better.

To be fair, the kid did end up graduating

OK, I remember him saying that. But all those guys usually graduate and are dumb as freak.

Like Brady throwing away his phone because he needed a new one.

I lost my phone in the Pacific Ocean a couple weeks ago. And I didn’t even throw it.

it helps when you have smart students and assistants whose job is to keep you eligible. Throw in a sympathetic faculty and you'd have to be truly stupid to not make it out with a degree, assuming you wanted one

Terps up on 23rd ranked Texas 24-7 in the 2nd quarter.

the last 6 minutes of the half were disastrous

it's a warmup for the Redskins season opener so consider it a dress rehearsal

Austin Peay hanging with UGA so far (albeit there's 10 min left in the 1st quarter).

A friend of mine who went to Austin Peay predicted the upset of the century today. He usually predicts AP to lose by several touchdowns.

that's a fumble

My bro lives in Austin (he's also a Terp), I suggested he needs to put the Terp flags on the Maserati and do burnouts all over town.

I got home around 4:30 and the indication was there was a delay with MD ahead. What happened?

tomterp · « **Reply #168:** September 01, 2018, 05:27:21 PM »

I've had this feeling the whole game that Texas is superior by a wide margins (especially in the lines), but the Terps have resorted to trickery and a few timely breaks to cling to the lead.

mitlen · « **Reply #169:** September 01, 2018, 05:32:08 PM »

I didn't get to see but the last 2 minutes. Considering the stuff (mostly self inflicked) the program has been through recently, this is a huge win.

thunder delayed the game for about an hour

Auburn came out looking dominant but Washington has survived and is now well in this game.

Neighbor and I were in WV (someplace way out) and it rained like hell. Comin' east on 66 it looked sunny to the east. I was surprised to see the delay notification. I thought they had an outage or some such thing.

Appreciate the info.

I probably asked this before but don't recall if anyone answered. I don't recall seeing football games delayed for weather back in the days (late 70's and through the 80's). Is it just me or is this a new phenomenon?

I remember the College All Star game being delayed/canceled for lightning against the Steelers in the mid-70s.
