"In Space"
Tackle in space, get the ball to them in space, etc.
It should be a drinking game at this point, I've heard it at least 10 times today.

I'll drink to that!
The preceding statements are solely the opinion of GoBoilers and are, therefore, probably not based whatsoever on fact, research or more time in thought than what was required to physically type them. They're probably correct anyway, so you shouldn't argue too much, because otherwise he'll just blather on forever. On the internet Al Gore invented.

How about any time a coach at halftime says, "we just need to run the ball" or "we just need to execute"

Now, that doesn't count.
Everybody knows that a purdue fan/student/alumn will drink to anything... hey, what's the weather like, Boilermaker response, "I'll drink to that".

Just watch... see what his response to this post will be.

Heard it so much today.
That might go away after Week 1. But I agree, that was annoying too.

Re: Most overused term this year
I dunno, hearing, "If they can run the table", about TCU & Boise St is getting to be a bit redundant.

Re: Most overused term this year
I am all ready tired of the follwoing words: Alabama, Nick Saban, Mark Ingram...
I am tired of them talking about the possibility of Boise State making the NC game, how the polls give them respect, etc. Lets just play the games first. I was trying to watch North Carolina make a big come back against LSU and that's all Musberger and Herbstreit wanted to talk about. How about you talk about the game in front of you.
How about: Heisman trophy candidate.
And they try to sneak Tebow into every conversation.

All part of the plan....All part of the plan.
When you repeat something a thousand times, it becomes truth.
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.
The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.
See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.
