Well, this sucks… and it might get worse? Numerous positive tests, over a dozen caught in contract tracing, and a game against Wake postponed till December. This isn’t the time for “I told you so,” but it’s always felt like we’d get to this point at some point in this bizarre season. The fallout is …
NDNation USF Postmortem
I will preface this by stating that I have never liked Brian Kelly and never will. I was not in favor of Tommy Rees as OC. After 10 years, we finally saw a complete game with nothing to complain about. Is Tommy Rees, the QB that didn’t take shit from Kelly, the OC that doesn’t …
NDNation USF Preview
There's another football game this weekend? Exhausting.
