Did you audibly say “it’s such a nice night”?That’s my only potential gap I can spot
April 23, 2025 at 2:01 AM
Fair enough - thanks for the info! It seems like this rollout has been far more difficult than it needs to be haha... not that I should at all be surprised by that

Any clue on DirecTV Stream? I'm not seeing anything specific to the Twins... assuming satellite v streaming is the difference.
March 27, 2025 at 2:57 PM

We will hand out the first official ticket, as has been tradition for many years, with the champ of the Ohio Valley on Saturday night!

If the opposite happens (Gopher loss & Iowa win), it appears that the Gophers still go through in the four possible scenarios. Their records against the others in the four possible tie-break pools are not the lowest in any scenario.

God bless the fine print!
