Running CFB playoff thread

You occasionally see plowing disparities almost that stark in Minnesota if you go to the border of either Minneapolis or St. Paul, and one of their adjacent suburbs. The main cities won't declare a snow emergency for less than three inches, and even when they do plow it takes forever because people don't get around to moving cars off the roads in time (to be fair the snow emergency parking rules are arcane and confusing and often it's hard to find somewhere else to park).
 
I'm in the Northeast and we use a magnesium liquid chloride solution that goes on before the snow, to help in melting. It works in lower temps and is somewhat safer for the environment.

They do this in my town but I can never tell if it actually works. But there have been times where I see it on the streets and think, I guess it's supposed to snow.
 
It works but I've seen them waste the stuff before a really severe cold snap when it is completely ineffective. I've seen them use beet juice too.
 
59 for Notre Dame meets to punch the offensive coordinator in the mouth at halftime
 
Twenty years ago, Dave Wannstedt was asked at halftime what Pitt needed to adjust in the second half against West Virginia.

"We need to run faster."

Marcus Freeman could have a similar response except his would be, "we need to get stronger."
