Tress won't coach d1 again

Hold was obvious there.
His show cause penalty and stuff is pretty rough, which is why I'm shocked. But it's what the guys are saying, the booosters want a big hire ... and can't get higher than him with our budget constraints.
(I mean we could get Belicheck as he has Rutgers ties, but let's be real).

Gundy's face will be purple by the end of this game. Cover your ears man!

Tress has said he really has no desire of coaching d1 again. He's fine working his current role at Akron.

They had freezing rain last night, you're lucky to have a game.

That loss to WVU really hurt OK St. You guys would have had a better résumé than the other OSU.

UCF is struggling mightily in the freezing weather thus far. good thing they already have the BCS berth locked up.
Also, Garrett Gilbert isn't playing which means we'll probably never see him play football again. end of an era

I don't know how to feel about Ohio State. On one hand, I hate their guts, but on the other hand, they're the Big 10's only hope... they're sort of like the anti-hero.

And awful Oklahoma defense to take advantage of it.

Yeah.... SMU had to shut down most of the stadium and it was the TV side.
Arkos
Nose how to spell and rede to
Wait what? Also tell your Knights to pick it up!
Edit: read the last page, I see. So is anybody there? Are they all on the tv side? Free football game would be cool if you could make it there tho

MSU is our last hope so OSU doesn't play for the title. I think it's best not to demonstrate exactly how weak the B1G is this year.

Great defensive stand there.

I can't believe how bad the roads got considering it was 80 degrees early in the week.

There are some fans there... not a lot, though, and they're all on the non-TV side.
SMU shut down most gameday activities like tailgating too.

You have lived in Texas long enough to know this isn't that surprising.
I think the strangest was going into a friends house to watch a football game in shorts weather, and coming out to snow.
I thought you were from Texas?
It snowed during superbowl week a couple years ago, other than that its mostly ice.
I'm used to drastic swings in temperature, but I was always under the impression that it had to be cold for a substantial period of time for any time of sleet/snow to stick to the ground.

Seems like they always have ice storms.
Meanwhile, here in Houston, it won't drop below freezing.
It does snow, it's just usually warm enough to melt a lot of snow during the day but freeze it overnight. In this storm's case, the problem is there was a ton of rain before it got cold enough to snow/freeze and then it's been freezing temperatures for two days.
Yesterday the roads were bad, but today they're worse. My snowy yard from yesterday is like a solid block of ice today.
That said, stick to the highways instead of smaller roads and stay away from overpasses and you can still get where you need to go. neighborhoods are the real problem with going anywhere; the main roads and highways have enough traffic to have tire grooves to safely drive in and are often salted or sanded while neighborhoods don't have either. Takes some people longer to get out of their driveways than it takes them to drive the next 10 miles they go. I have to drive 20 miles through town to get to work and I made it yesterday in the same amount of time it normally takes, mostly because it's almost all large road driving and while you have to go slow for the ice and snow there was almost no other traffic.

It's kinda why you have ice. It melts when it first hits the ground, then freezes again when the road temp falls below freezing.
Houston and Dallas are very different. I think it has snowed once in 30 years.
ConfusingJazz
Member
That's an exaggeration. It snows about every 4 or 5 years.
Significant snowfall, yeah, that's true. This one being my favorite: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Christmas_Eve_snowstorm
EDIT: According to Wikipedia, 35 times in Houston since 1895, or once every 3.3 years.

That was grounding.
haha I remember that b/c my folks were stuck in Victoria where they had no idea what they were seeing. I lived in Lubbock at the time where conditions were fine

It snowed as far south as Brownsville. Now they may only see snow once every 30+ years

Woke up today hung over. Saw the "Jim Tressel to Rutgers" rumors.
Am I sure I'm not sleeping?

I would recommend pinching yourself really really hard to make sure. In fact, to make double sure, punch yourself in the face. That will work.
