WHAT IF:

I ran some simulations on my rankings sheet, leaving everything else alone, and simulating a hypothetical future game between OSU and Michigan:

My current ranks
1668451506820.png
Ohio State beats Michigan 31-28
1668451310088.png
Michigan beats Ohio State 31-28
1668451405316.png

In both cases, they drop below us by a significant amount.

I still don't see why anybody would willingly walk into that dumpster fire. Their expectations are unrealistic and their patience is even shorter than most. He could just hang out at Ole Miss and go 9-3 or 10-2 every year with an occasional run at the playoffs with much less drama. Whatever though. If Kiffin wants to jump into that bucket of crazy then more power to him.

Parents of VN, y'all got any advice for going from one kid to two? My wife is due any day now. Our son just turned 2 about a month ago.

You’re 4 months ahead of me but I’ll be reading the advice as well so thanks for asking. Got a 16 month old and wife is expecting in March. Two kids under 2 😬

Yeah, and this is also what worries me about Milton. Yes, Joe can throw a 70 yard bomb with the flick of a wrist. But, part of what makes Hendon so successful in this scheme is his ability to analyze the defense and react with (usually) lightning speed in the play call and execution. Consistently.

We have not seen Joe Milton have to do that with a fired up defense coming at him.

I’m not saying he CAN’T, just saying that he hasn’t really been forced to in his backup outings so far.

get them on as similar of sleep schedules as possible. we have a 3 month old and a 2 year old and the fact that they go to bed and wake up around the same time is a blessing for our sleep and sanity. We're huge on structure and schedule with both kids and getting a very strict sleep/eat schedule is how we have both kids sleeping 11-12 hours a night. both kids took about 2 months after being born for them to be sleeping 8+ hours a night uninterrupted. "moms on call" book was a big help with guidance on how to establish the schedule.

1. Sleep schedule. (It’s worth it.)
2. Be extra understanding with your first as it will rock his/her world for a bit.
3. Soak it in and take lots of videos. Longest days, but the shortest years.

Congrats!

I agree. If it's 4th down, and the first down opportunity is there, you take it. As important, don't take a sack on 4th down. Throw it up for grabs at the very least and see if your teammate can make a play or get a flag. Don't just take the automatic turnover.

HH isn't a mistake-free QB. It still doesn't mean he starts slow.

Like I have said...I don't like criticizing him, but if we play another elite defense that can squeeze opportunities...he has to make the right decisions on these kind of plays, or we are going to get shut down again.

I'm not trying to tear him down...just stating a fact.

Mine are 8, 6, and 4 now...it's tough when you're lacking sleep and you have no time to yourself but soak it in. I miss the days of having one sleeping on my chest while watching the Vols play...kept me a little more under control.

Don't have any preconceived notions about how the second will react/behave based on how the first one did. They will most likely be entirely different. Not better or worse. Just very different.

Ours are 17 months apart and it’s made life hard on an easy day but they are besties and it’s worth every ounce of energy. 724943C8-1D10-4301-AC6D-5DA376CE8BCB.jpeg

All of y'all going from one to two, you'll be fine. You'll still do some divide and conquer, just in a different way. As the years go by, the older one becomes a good helper.

Having said all that, we volunteered to babysit for a family with 4 kids Saturday evening, ages 2, 4, 5 and 7. Let me tell you, it kicked my a$$ like nothing ever has. The parents came and got them and all I could do was hope that they didn't see the "what the f#$% is wrong with you?!?!" written all over my face.
