\nWhat criteria do you use to determine if a team and its players are good?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I guess it’s just a feeling, really. Kind of a mental “on a scale of 1-10” for each of the major aspects of the game and go from there. If they’ve got a 9 or a 10 of an offense (BG), but a 3 or 4 of a defense (uh, BG), they can be “good”, but not “great”. Which is why I’m hoping beyond hope that BG can at least make me feel comfortable giving that defense a 5 or a 6, enough to get by until Omar can throw the ball again. Teams like Ohio State are a little different. They’ve got some 9’s and 10’s in spots, but have enough question marks on either side of the ball to be considered “great” right now. And actually, until they kick ’em off, all teams fall in that sort of purgatory until the question marks can be proven or disproven.<\/p>\n

If you could choose one coach to build an offensive system for your school, who would it be? Conversly, who would you choose to devise the defense? Why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I like what BG has right now. Gregg Brandon had a hand in creating and implementing the offense we see today, and even as head coach, it still feels like its his<\/em> offense. I don’t know much about coaches that are out there, but I think there hundreds of them that could bring an improvement to BG’s defense. Hopefully John Lovett is one of them. (I think that he is, and while he hasn’t had much time to get his system in place, he’s shown that he’ll shake things up a bit, starting some freshmen because they’ve earned it, and I like that. We’ll see if I still like it Saturday around 3pm.)<\/p>\n

Describe your typical college fotoball Saturday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don’t know that I have “typical college football Saturdays”. (I’m trying my damnest not to make a “fotoball” reference aimed at the typo in the original question, btw.) I work Saturdays, but don’t go in until 2:30pm. So I can usually catch a good portion of the various noon starts (11 am here until the time change in late October) before I head to work, usually just flipping back and forth between the ESPN networks and seeing what catches my eye, unless Michigan is involved. After that, I head to work and pretty much pore over the AP wire stories on the games, flip between whatever games are available (I work at the one part of a TV station that has NO control over what I watch outside of the networks, minus FOX.) and skim the net for other commentary. If available, I’ll tune into the BG student station’s webcast to follow that game, or at least follow along on CSTV’s GameTracker.<\/p>\n
