You know, we give Michigan a lot of hell via internet print, and rightly so. However, there are days in which things happen that allow us to sit back and laugh at Michigan without really having to do anything. Today is one of those days. Oh, and we get to take a shot at Urban Meyer and Texas too! So this happened last night on Jeopardy!: http://youtu.be/mZDHh2z_My4 Let's break down this 1:20 of glory that was the "College Football Coaches" category. Let's take the category for $200, ...
Seriously, this time you should be excited for an otherwise boring matchup.
Look, I know we here at HLS always give Purdue a solid, swift kick to nuts every time they play them. We're all familiar with the bit by now. Purdue sucks, they are boring zzzzzzzzzzz and all that. This week though, you should be excited. I'm serious here, stay with me on this. Look, I know Purdue is a horrible football team.

In practice, the principle of chivalry implies a respect for the rules. Given the events that unfolded in Los Angeles over the weekend, we need to be cognizant that things in Troy are not necessarily what they seem. In short, the only thing we know right now is that we're playing the University of Southern California Trojans on Saturday ...
So I can't let Rick Reilly's article go. Maybe that was part of his cunning plan: so infuriate the Irish that they go on an undefeated run which causes him enormous pleasure because that entire bit about him turning in his fan card was actually a literary deceit. But in all likelihood, he was being sincere and he was actually offended that NBC didn't tear up its contract with Notre Dame.
