BSD Mailbag 8.30.24

Hi Cari. We got this “thing”, so I won’t be using any swear words towards you, but how’s come you misspelled “12-0” on the season prediction thread?—LocalYocal

What is this “thing” of which you speak? Have I truly been gone from the BSD boards for that long? Wait…don’t answer that second question (I’m still confused about the first).

I pride myself on being logical, even with one of the most illogical things in existence - that of sports fandom. And logic, right now at least, precludes me from picking PSU to go undefeated. If we couldn’t go undefeated (let alone get 11 regular season wins) in 2017, when we led Ohio State in the ‘shoe with mere minutes to go and then inexplicably lost in East Lansing, I just can’t bring myself to have confidence that we’ll go undefeated this year.
