So, I'm pretty sure we're going with white jerseys for away....any change of putting maroon pants with those, or are we going white out two (or three) weeks in a row?
I haven't heard about it in regards to paper airplanes, but i have heard of it in regards to throwing bottles, cups, etc.

And UMD was pinned in Assateague. Virginia. At least there are turtles there...

I like both the metallic orange helmet and the one worn against Furman, and would like to see both again. As for the shoulder stripes, I like them on the away uniforms, it provides some color, but I'm over them on the home uniforms, would rather go back to a more solid maroon, like what X. Adibi wore, or what MV7 wore.
That being said, the stripes did accent the metallic helmet well against anOSU.
You know, I'm really not worried about Ohio State's depth.
I learned the last 4 years in the student section that probably 90% of the students yell it. I look around and about half of those people are Nationals fans. I even asked a couple of my friends why they yelled it if they weren't O's fans and they responded "Cause it's funny." I can't understand at all how that is remotely funny. I understand it if you're an Orioles fan, but, "being funny?" That confuses me.
Why take away a year of a player's (even NFL bound) eligibility to have them squeeze in 200 garbage time snaps?
I think you're missing the point - you don't pull a redshirt for garbage time snaps; you pull a redshirt for meaningful snaps. For example, by Urban's logic, pulling Tyrod's redshirt in 2007 was the correct move. By Strong's logic, Tyrod should have been the starter in 2007.
Edit: to clarify - there is an assumption that said player can contribute in a meaningful way. You don't put them on the field just to get experience, you put them on the field because they give you a (better) chance to win. If they are unable to contribute, then, of course, you keep the redshirt on.
GET SOME!

Sam Rogers playing a Mike? I couldn't imagine. It would be great. I wouldn't want to risk injury as helpful as he is on offense.

The o-lineman are some funny guys
I wonder if Conte will give the Hammer to VT to use in the future. Could be a cool tradition.

# | Locker Room Wrap: Dwayne Lawson, Travon McMillian Get Their Big Chances Against Furman Yes, for every comment that suggested Lefty doesn't know what he's doing there are at least 10 that suggest he outsmarts the players (or himself).
Just like my old high school coach said, "Just because you don't make the tackle each play, doesn't mean you didn't make the play." I've always like Bud Foster's style of coaching and defensive strategy. Purdue's run game doesn't stand chance if we play like we did against Furman. Hopefully, Huelskamp can step up to the plate, be a well physical and mental player and fly around.

on my head on gameday.
Please tell me this is true.
Won't Settle for anything less
Because they are the best option. If we tell recruits that if they come out and are the best player or earn their way into the 2 deep, they will play, they will respect that. We have a ton of TEs on the roster but we are playing our future Backer there as a true freshman in the short term. We are putting the best guys on the field, not necessarily the most experienced guys. It really seems to be a change in the motto for the program over the past 3 years or so.
Your argument is that we play seniority over youth. Now you say it's because we have to. Why do we have to? Because the underclassmen are better than the upperclassmen? Then that means we wouldn't be playing seniority over youth. Look at our WRs and tell me that we play seniority over youth. Donovan Riley is a senior, but he isn't a starter. Sure, on other positions, our 3 deep is all underclassmen because we have no upperclassmen there. But in positions where the underclassmen outperform the upperclassmen, they get the playing time.
