After decades of seeing fans of other teams say "I don't feel good, but at least we won" after playing us, I get it now.

A win is a win is a win. Good teams win their clunkers. But my god is it stressful.

Braun means what he says that he respects Fitz a ton for being the reason he has the position he has at NU. The issue is that he doesn’t understand Fitz basically plays the chip on the shoulder card nonstop and that this was his Super Bowl. So while Braun and them were likely game planning like they would any other lower tier Big Ten opponent, Fitz was obsessively getting his team ready to go and turn this game into rock fight.

Braun needs to learn to coach out of spite is basically what I’m saying because a coach like Fitz is more than happy to do that
