This is where I think Pederson was incredibly arrogant in hiring someone that
would put NU through a massive change.  Lots of risk & lots of hope.

Where's the evidence for this?  Wake's misdirection tore the D apart.  
USC just
tore it apart period.  Missouri, I think, will give NU fits.

Looking at statistics when the score is so lopsided really fits lies, 
damn lies
and statistics.  How much offense came in the 4th quarter when the game was
decided?
