  1. Down to 11 now. They're not favored in an individual game on KenPom until December 14th vs Western Kentucky, though in sum numbers say they win 1 of the next 4. Cal is in a similar position at 0-5 with their next favored game on Dec 7 against Eastern Washington
  2. The announcers in the Illinois-Purdue game wouldn't shut up about what a huge rivalry game it was. I do not recall ever giving a single horsefeathers about Purdue football.
  3. Isn't it 39 guys on the 40 man? With the Tampa trade?
  4. Colorado lost to Grambling St and UMass and beat Tennessee and A&M
  5. I’ve entertained the Kupp idea as well, similar situation, guy is in the last playoff spot at the moment, but I was burned on this move with Mike Trout in 2021, a little gunshy
  6. Can that mean the Falcons will finally horsefeathering use Kyle Pitts to prove his worth?
  7. I think consolidation trades are really hard to pull off, maybe if somebody really needs a RB and values Olave for the keeper value but I don’t think that returns anything more valuable than Deebo. Stick with your depth.
  8. Matchup in my league just swung on the -2 points for the Devonta Smith fumble
  9. If Peacock is taking the place of BTN+ that’d be great
  10. We beat everybody but Purdue, but we’ll lose to you by 25 next week and somebody will probably finish with 3 losses. Iowa and Minnesota play next week so one of them will have 4 losses. Iowa has tiebreaker over Purdue, Purdue over Minnesota. Assuming the Michigan loss, if it gets to 4 losses, Illinois has the tiebreaker with every team but Purdue, and would win any multi team tiebreaker except 3 way with Purdue/Minnesota So this scenario seems relatively reasonable and makes a 5 way tie. Assuming Illinois would win that tie due to being 3-1 against the others? Illinois: L @ Mich, W @ NU Purdue: W vs NU, L @ IU Iowa: L @ Minn, W vs Neb Minn: W vs Iowa, L @ Wisc Wisc: W @ Neb, W vs Minn H2H: Ill 3-1 Wisc 2-2 Minn 2-2 Iowa 2-2 Pur 2-2 Yes, all Illinois needs to worry about is getting Purdue out of a tiebreaker, so just tying with them on a group H2H moves it to the next tiebreak of W-L within division which IllInois would have over any other 4 loss West team (assuming a Michigan loss/NW Win) No team controls their own destiny, Illinois winning out still misses if Purdue wins out and Iowa loses a game. Purdue winning out still misses if Iowa wins out. Iowa winning out still misses if Illinois wins out. Minnesota winning out still misses if at least one of Purdue or Illinois win out.

  12. I have Herbert and Dak, and have an offer for Dak(+Kenyan Drake) from Josh Allen's owner with Tyler Boyd coming back to me. Boyd is pretty similar in output to my 3 WRs I've been rolling with (McLaurin, Olave, Davis), but will allow me to play matchups, and have 2 functional WRs for week 14. I generally say horsefeathers backup QBs, just want somebody to reinforce my thoughts.
  13. So do I give Pitts one more start before turning to Dulcich?
  14. I think being confident in any team beating Ohio State or Georgia (including each other) is silly.
  15. Deon over Brian Robinson right? (I’m already starting McLaurin if that matters.)
  16. I think Rachad White is going to wind up the lead back, I don’t love Cordarrelle in his first game back but I’d pick Him
  17. Hockenson won’t get a bye either, but he missed a week for injury already
  18. Obviously he'll get his bye in week 14, but with all this trade activity I was wondering... Has a guy ever started more than 16 games (pre 2021) or is anyone slated to start 18 games this year because they didn't catch either end of the bye and got traded? Robert Quinn would have been one but he missed the Bears game vs. Minnesota. Eagles already had their bye and he played for them last Sunday. Quinn played 50 snaps against Minnesota, he just didn't register anything in the box score. He could be the first 18 gamer since they standardized the schedule.
  19. I think Oregon gets punished more for that embarrassing loss to Georgia.
  20. Nagy ran the offense for however many years it was and I don’t recall a play call as baffling as the TE shovel pass with 11 seconds left from the 20.
  21. I don't think they are going to trade Montgomery, but yeah, he isn't coming back. How about they dump him on whoever doesn’t want to meet Cleveland’s demands for Hunt
  22. Notre Dame has won its last 25 regular season games against ACC opponents.
  23. I also like Kentucky
