Weather delay after the Maryland TD.

We are about to get some rain folks, wind speed 8 mph. 

Come the fuck on play football. Who called the game off? Why? Was there even lighting reported nearby???

If lightning is seen or noted on radar within 8 miles of stadium....automatic 30 minute delay from last known lightning strike.

I had two Cathy's from Iowa back in the 90's.

So you think Herman is feeding them pbj or orange slices in the locker room to stay fueled during this little break?

He lines them up and gives each player a kiss on the lips or a scowl, depending on their play.

All about money, three way Texas/Redskin/Maryland deal. 

How much money are the Skins getting with this shitty ass attendance, though? Seems the operating costs of getting this stadium functioning outweighs the true benefits of having the game. I could see if Maryland was a big time program that drew very well. But they don't care about football there.

Well, while waiting through the weather delay I noticed a tweet that the XII turns 22 this weekend: Glad to have Texas & SWC in the former Big8 combined..!

I’m trying like fuck to look at the positives of this weather delay. But seeing as our coaching staff can’t scheme for shit. Can’t olay call can’t prep can’t do anything correct I imagine they are all playing candy crush right now on their phones. Maryland comes out rested and ready to finish

Couldn’t tell you/agree, just know that’s why it was agreed upon originally

They had better win this game.

That’s all. We can worry about the Big XII, all that stuff later.

Win the game, Tom. 

That is all that matters. Hook'em!

Wtf Orlando's Defense????

Losing 4 NFL talents was never going to result in a better defense. But yea, it should be better than this, primarily the secondary.

Oregon State just intercepted Ohio Rape at the goal line, ran it back to midfield, fumbled on the tackle to a teammate that runs it deep into Buckeye territory.

Worth catching the replay on twitter.

Chose a team bullshit? Not sure what you are getting at here.

I don't know, how long does it take to taze and hogtie a man, say about the size of Tim Beck, load him up in the trunk of a 72 Buick, haul him down to the Potomac, and find enough rocks to tie to his body?  You know, if his body was about the size of Tim Beck's?  Can the weather delay be about that long?

He had Sally make some cookies specifically for this. Mensa.

That would be some Cobra Kai - Karate Kid III level shit. Herman being the Terry Silver to Mack Brown's John Kreese.

its not a tough concept. but obviously you are living in the past where no one goes for 2 until its 1 min left in the game. 

going for 2  TO TIE THE GAME was the right call, and still was the right call with the miss.    

the issue is, Mensa didnt do a fucking run/pass option for Sam - you know the QB who does a pretty good job running for 3-5 yards at a time

At the end of the game, specific score patterns dictate deviation from the odds. E.g., if you are down 2 with under a minute, you go for 2. Until late, however, you don’t know how many TDs, FGs, etc are going to be scored on each side. So you generally should follow the stats. If getting a 2-Pt conversion is more than 50% as likely as kicking for one, you try for 2. Otherwise you don’t.

Well now FS1 is switching to the Cal game......what happens to coverage when delay (at least another 30 minutes) is done...? 

The TCU game in 2013 finished on FS2 same thing will probably happen here depending how long the delay is

? Some of it could have to do with shitty offense. (Beck/Herman)Some of it could have to do with we’re soft. Honestly, the fucking crab cakes have more grit than we do.
