5 in a row! Seider wins it.

Off to OT

Yeah because from what I’ve seen, at even strength the Wings are their equal or better tonight.

And.now three 3 and outs.

Michigan has already had two 3 and outs. Need to at least re-balance the field position.

Upshaw breathes big sigh of relief.

Are you kidding me? What a dumb penalty to take.

Iowa’s offense played a bit better than advertised that quarter. Although they have been weak all year in red zone and it showed here.

Nice arm on Donovan Edwards!

The one thing that scares me about Iowa is their 22 INTs. But if the running game can work like on the last drive …

This game might take 4 hours to play with all these commercials.

How close was he to stepping out at around the 25.

Need to convert this 3rd and 3.

I was distracted by Iowa’s first drive but caught Givani Smith giving the Wings the lead back, 3-2.

Wings lead 2-1, but failing to score on a 5 on 3 like the Wings did always seems to come back and haunt a team.

The Crimsonettea are looking like a #1 today too.

If Houston beats Cincinnati, I don't see how the CFP isn't Georgia, Alabama, Michigan and Notre Dame in some order, unless Michigan gets blown out by Iowa. update: Cincy now appears to be on its way, 28-13. Michigan needs to win to get in.

Yeah, Cincy seems pretty rough with their up the middle playcalling. Bryce Young won the Heisman in the 1st half.

Houston had 22 minutes time of possession in the 1st half to 8 for Cincinnati. 14-13 Cincy at the half.

Alabama will be #1 if they beat Georgia.

How many years has the band conductor been longing to call in The Victors for such a triumphant moment as at the 30 second mark here:

Another rookie-of-the-month award for the Red Wings. This time to Raymond. https://www.nhl.com/redwings/news/lucas-raymond-november-nhl-rookie-of-the-month/c-328514716?utm_source=20211118_DRW_Newsletter_ RaymondRookieoftheMonth&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20211202_DRW_Newsletter_RaymondRookieMonth DETROIT -- The sample size is large enough now. The future of the Detroit Red Wings is right in front of our eyes. Red Wings standout rookie winger Lucas Raymond was named the NHL's "Rookie of the Month" for November on Wednesday, repeating the same honor his teammate, Moritz Seider, earned in October's opening month of the season. Raymond and Seider became the first duo to capture back-to-back NHL Rookie of the Month plaudits since Toronto's Auston Matthews and Mitchell Marner in December 2016 and January 2017. Raymond edged Detroit goalie Alex Nedeljkovic for November's honor one month after Seider narrowly earned the award over Raymond in October. Raymond tallied five goals, seven assists and 12 points in 14 games played in November. He tallied points in nine games, including three separate three-game point streaks, and earned an average of 17:34 in ice time throughout the month.

The Wings have played more games than most, so simply looking at points alone is misleading. But even on points per game basis, the Wings are hanging in there. The Habs and Isles being so far back changes the dynamic of the playoff conversation a bit. If 9 teams made it, I think the Wins would have a decent shot. But assuming Boston and Pittsburgh will grab at least a wildcard spot over 82 games, who could the Wings possibly knock out? The Rangers?
