Tom Osborne has been tough to replace at Nebraska. Jimmy Johnson's success at Dallas couldn't be replicated by Barry Switzer, whose departure Oklahoma is just starting to recover from. God help the next coach at Penn State. Some things would be too bizarre to make up. Ohio State University's Director of Athletics Communications resigned after botching an attempt a humor in the schools basketball media guides.
Problem is the clock automatically stops on change of possession.
Granted, the first half is the only time it is a benefit, as opposed to the end of each of the first three quarters in the NBA, but this basic strategy is ignored time and time again in the college game. Our efforts to notch a sixth consecutive winning week in basketball came up short as we had a modest losing week on the hardwood. Oddly, we were involved in three games that were decided by half a point on Saturday and three games that saw a favorite losing by double digits at the half come back to get the cover. So many games land so close to the line in basketball. On Wednesday night 14 of the 49 games on the board landed within a point and a half of the number.
