If you squint a little watching this one, you can pretend we're pounding the crap out of Creighton.

Only if you're arguing with yourself.

Would not have guessed that a person with the given name "Nisine Poplar" would need a nickname. That written, "Wooga" just adds to the general awesomeness.

Move to Chicago.

WARNING: Quarantine time on my hands alert. This is my favorite CFB fantasy, with seven 11-team conferences based mostly on region and tradition. Call it the Super League. WEEK ZERO games scheduled last Saturday in August against lower-division teams at Super League home stadiums. Revenue generator for lower-division teams, so Nebraska would host a round of teams from year to year like South Dakota, Wyoming, NDSU, Northern Iowa, etc. Also guarantees seven home games for revenue and a 13th game for everybody instead of meaningless bowl games at end of season. 2-game non-conference schedule among the Super League (1 home/1 away) to help with seeding later for possible wild card. Scheduled by Super League to create suspense, such as last year's conference champions playing or last-place teams from previous year facing off. 10-game conference season determines conference champions. Relegation to lower division if a team finishes 0-12. Replaced by champion and other top teams of the Secondary League, which consists of the MAC, the Sun Belt, the Big Sky, Mo Valley, Mountain West remnants, and all those ArkLaTex and Carolina schools trying to compete currently in Division I. Seven champs plus five wild cards make the 12-team playoffs. 5 vs. 12, 6 vs. 11, 7 vs. 10, 8 vs. 9 in first-round games played first Saturday of December at home field of lowest-seeded team. First round of playoffs in lieu of conference title games. Winners play top four seeds third Saturday in December at four of the New Year's Six sites. Semifinals played as they are now, at the other two New Year's Six venues on New Year's Day Finals played second Monday of January at rotating neutral venues Wouldn't be a bad double-round-robin for basketball either.

Give it time. I'm hearing from Lawrence that Self is almost finished with the first draft outlining how he'll penalize himself. The stickling point is whether he'll be able to coach while wearing his toupee.

Dam write. I no my schitt.

And keep in mind, it's not just to protect us from them, it's to prot ... OK, let's be honest. It's to protect us from them.

Otherwise known as the MEAC/SWAC/Hawkeye Challenge.

All the games in Vegas?

I like it. I'm advocating that the U of Iowa do that AND delay the start of spring semester until at least late February and subsidize a Hawaii condo for all faculty over 57 years of age during the break to allow for a complete focus on spring curricula. On edit: Oh, and to keep safe from the 'Rona, too.

Good product. Perfect Father's Day gift — if he eats meat, of course.

10 minutes in the basement. We're good. Was northeast of here. Thanks for thinking of me. How you?

U of Iowa just sent us an email about campus activities ramping up. Here'e the relevant part: Iowa’s Department of Intercollegiate Athletics will begin returning select coaches and staff on June 1, 2020. Football student athletes who choose to participate in voluntary workouts will return beginning June 8, 2020, and Men’s and Women’s Basketball student athletes beginning on June 15, 2020. Student athletes will participate in a formal clearance process for the return to voluntary practice. The process will follow NCAA, B1G, and campus best-practices and supervised by UI Health Care medical staff.

The 1971 Little Chiefs banquet in downtown Lincoln featured guest speaker Russ Snyder. We were all like, "Who?" And our dads flicked our heads, and said "Russ Damn Snyder, that's who!" On edit: 1971 banquet. Maybe '72. Long damn time ago.

You kids and your crazy slang languages. SPEAK UP!

Not for volleyball, though.

It's the horizontal stripes and the Merlot.

Stupid White Sox AND their fans.

More like the "Dammit Games" the last decade or so.

The refs might take that into consideration. It seems to help Kansas and Michigan State to have more stars.

I know nothing of the fan base. I'm just a fan of Pulisic. Now you've made me think. Damn it.

I can't even with some of these people. You have a perfectly wonderful back deck, but you sit in your garage to drink beer? Loose, unseasoned hamburger meat? Council Bluffs? C'mon!!
