4. It is an even year, which means Northwestern will be an absolute wagon

It is an even year, therefore it is inevitable in the Big Ten West. While it remains to be seen if the Northwestern Wildcats are going to be getting back to Indianapolis to lose again to someone like Ohio State, Pat Fitzgerald’s team might be a wagon again, guys. They took Scott Frost’s onside kick attempt on them personally and then proceeded to run roughshod on Nebraska after that.

Hashtag blessed with a 31-28 win over the Cornhuskers in Dublin, we haven’t seen Medill get this fired up since the Wildcats made it into the NCAA Tournament for the first time ever a few years back. In The Sandlot, Bertram got really into the ’60s, and nobody ever saw him again. Here at FanSided, Carm got really into this year’s Northwestern team, and nobody ever saw him again.

Peace, love and Northwestern football Carmony. We wouldn’t have it any other way, to be honest.

3. We might as well rename the fifth month of the year after Drake Maye meow

It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for Maye, and I’m feeling good about UNC football after Week 0. We are only a few months out from having to purchase new calendars for 2023, but we have plenty of time to learn how to correctly spell the fifth month of the year meow. It is no longer May, but Maye, as in Drake Maye, the son of Mark Maye and the brother of Luke Maye.

If we can learn how to spell Dawgs correctly, we can re-program our brains to add the E at the end of the former name of the fifth month of the year. It is not extra when it is necessary. This is what happens when Mack Brown gets a starting quarterback who will eat more than chicken fingers. We are no longer subjected to the palates of petulant children. We are 100 percent sophisticated.

If you don’t think five touchdown passes and 294 yards vs. FAMU matters, you can just get out!
