OR “If the football team goes 9-3, the basketball blogger will take the time to do a full-fledged game preview for the bowl game.” 1:00 pm, Thursday, January 1.

Hooray for Hoyer

Me, last night: One set of numbers we haven’t talked about are the career statistics of our senior quarterback: 57.1% completion percentage, 7.0 yards per pass attempt, 32-18 TD-Int ratio.

Nevertheless: Another monumental performance by Javon Ringer: 198 yards on 44 carries. The offensive/special teams touch counts are now up to 203 for [...]

A few basketball links: As part of their “State Project,” Storming the Floor notes that the seven Division 1 basketball programs in Michigan posted an overall losing record last year. And they’ve got the Fab Five just ahead of the Flintstones as the “most memorable team” in the state’s history. Snicker-inducing headline for MSU fans: [...]
