It's not even baseball season but we're in a weather delay, so long-time followers know what that means! Time for some tweets about a hare-brained sitcom theory I have!
Today's theory: Let's discuss how long Rachel was actually pregnant for in season 8 of Friends.
Ok. So TOW Monica and Chandler's Wedding aired May 17, 2001. Rachel already knew she was pregnant then. And TOW Rachel Has A Baby aired May 16, 2002. That's about a 378-day pregnancy, assuming conception two weeks before the test. About 98 days too long. Let's make this add up.
BUT! We know from TOW The Embryos in season 4 Phoebe took a pregnancy test the same day she was implanted as a surrogate and get the positive results.
So let's assume Friends exists in a parallel universe where the only difference is speed of pregnancy tests. Fair enough.
1. Matt Corral's 436 yards of total offense led all Power 5 players this weekend. By 72 yards. Only seven Power 5 QBs (counting Notre Dame) produced within 100 yards of what Corral did.
2. The #OleMiss defense has held back-to-back opponents below 6 yards per pass attempt dating back to the bowl game.
In what can only be described as "Wait, what?" news, the last time Ole Miss did that in back-to-back games was against Alabama and Georgia in 2016.
3. In the last three years, #OleMiss is 8-4 in games where Snoop Conner runs for a TD and 2-9 when he doesn't.
The Rebels haven't won a game in which Snoop didn't score since the Southeastern Louisiana game in 2019.
#OleMiss plays football tonight, a mega-giganto-thread of stories to read. Catch up on everything you need to know about tonight's game and the team, starting with my scouting report and prediction.
The defense is supposed to be better this year. Now's the night where we see if they can prove it. Here's some analysis on why it should be better, but also some analysis on why it might just be talk.
