K, it's an easy enough change since you both have week one available. Splff, do you want me to get back on and take care of it? Or do you just wanna take care of it when you get on?

You can do it. Just give me a heads up when you're done so I can get on and do my board.

Alright, done. Let me know if I missed anything or did anything wrong, but I went over everything and think it should be good.

If anyone wants to view your schedule, you can see them up on the OD website.

Just waiting on Ho and Urbs now.

Stop, assuming we advance, when are you able to play? Wisconsin and Kansas, what a way to kick off the 2012 season!

So I take it no advance tonight then?

Urban, we got a early matchup in week 5 this season. The Hawks will be out for revenge so you better have all the kinks worked out and be ready for a hungry Jayhawks team eager for another shot at the Big 12 Title.

Oh, we'll be ready, but we won't be as talented. Recruiting has severely hurt the Cornhuskers these last couple of years, but I won't lose more than two games either way. I just don't know if I can contend for the title.


Btw, does splff care if we advance? I'm doing mine now.

I would say to go ahead and advance. He said that we were just waiting on you and Ho, so I'm pretty sure we're all good.

Hmmmmm....I know he's probably asleep and I don't want to do it without saying something to him first. I'll probably just finish mine up here in a few minutes and let him advance before work if that's what he wants or I'll do it in the morning once I get confirmation.

Alright, that's cool. I was really wanting to practice with my team to get a feel for them before stop and I tangle tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have some time tomorrow before we play.

Stop, I think I said something earlier but in case you don't go back that far, I'm gonna be around pretty much all day tomorrow, so just let me know when you want to play. If you can play and I'm not around here, text me. (785-213-2871)

Also, splff, change me from playing the Chipewas....there's no way they go undefeated and I'll beat them 72-0 if I even pay half attention. Give me somebody great. I need the big win on my record to help out the BCS rating with the weak Big 12 opponents I have (other than KU, TAMU and the Rid River teams).

Umm....I don't play you this year, nor jhawk.

and watch me still choke this away.

First of all, you're probably right, they probably won't go undefeated. But that is the case with most of the other CPU teams we schedule as well. They finished 11-1 last season with their only loss coming to Michigan State, who they barely lost to. They were 11th I think in the final BCS polls. One spot higher and they would've made a BCS game. That's the only decent team they play against this year too. If they somehow knock off MSU, they could conceivably run the table and make the title game. Even if they have one loss, they could make the title game, and probably would make a BCS game, as with all of us playing more user games, chances of going undefeated are significantly decreased.

You have an A- schedule. You don't play either A&M or Texas this season. You will face Oklahoma, and you also have user games against Michigan, Virginia Tech, and Arkansas (besides me). We don't really know about Michigan, but Kid and Clark were both extremely good last season and could be in title contention again this season.

Essentially, somebody needs to play Central Michigan. They probably won't finish undefeated or with one loss anyway, but it's better to not run the risk. There really aren't any more "great" teams to be scheduled that aren't gonna get beat up on by other users, so really, if the Chipewas were to play great and only lose to you, or finish with two losses, they could actually help your BCS power than some other BCS teams would. Regardless, if you take care of business, it's not gonna matter. You play 3 teams and users who finished with a combined record of 31-5 last season. Like I said, if you take care of business and win your games, you're gonna make the NC, so it doesn't even matter.

Hey Urban/jhawk, either one of you can advance whenever you want to this morning. I don't have time to do it this morning because I'm running a lil late. I ask that you please post up here when you do it and send a "advanced" message over the PSN as well. Thanks guys.

EDIT: Nevermind, I did it right quick.

EDIT Again: This shit ain't advancing so jhawk/Urbs could one of you advance it when you get up?

splff u know urbs don't wake up before noon.

Michigan picks up 3 commits week 1. Jusblaze when you wanna play.

Depends on how the weather works out tonight. If it's raining then I won't be home til tomorrow. I'll keep you updated, but if we play tonight it won't be til 8 at the earliest

Stop, you good to go here sometime within the next couple of hours?

After last year's recruiting debacle it feels great to get 2 instant commits. Still got a lot of convincing to do but way more quality recruits are interested in Wisconsin this year.

Whenever you're ready

I should be ready here in a bit. I'm gonna recruit real quick and then wanna just run a couple of practice plays to try and get a feel for my team again.
