A note on the schedule after going down a rabbit hole trying to guess our game times, lol. According to Sports Media Watch, CBS has two Saturdays blocked for an 11:00 am CST Big Ten game - Saturday 10/28 and Saturday 11/4. We have a bye week on the 28th, but we play at Minnesota on the 4th. Here are the games on November 4th in the Big Ten:

Purdue at Michigan (already announced for 6:30 pm on NBC)
Ohio State at Rutgers
Nebraska at Michigan State
Penn State at Maryland
Iowa vs. Northwestern (Wrigley Field)
Wisconsin at Indiana
Illinois at Minnesota

I have to figure CBS will pick either Ohio State at Wisconsin or Purdue at Nebraska for the previous week, so maybe that removes a couple games from competition? Iowa/Northwestern isn't nearly as "exciting" as it could have been pre-scandal, even with the gimmick of playing at Wrigley (and this will be the third iteration).

So, I think if we are in a competitive spot in the West, Illinois/Minnesota has a decent shot at being that 11:00 am CBS game on Saturday 11/4.

I have no idea what "dripped out" means but those togs are dandy. I'd like to procure some.

Reminds me of the Carsenio Hall Show parody on SNL via Dana Carvey and (RIP) Phil Hartman. A mashup of Johnny Carson and Arsenio Hall, c. 1991.

Further late-20th century cultural education for the youngsters. Weird, wild stuff. 'You are correct, sir!"
