Bill Belichick watched the Aer Lingus College Football Classic and wrote 'sticky gloves' in big capital letters on his shopping list ahead of a Dublin trip. Rain significantly affected the renewal between Iowa State and Kansas State, leaving the first half tied 7-7. Both teams struggled with ball control in wet conditions, producing two fumbles within the first five minutes. Early turnovers disrupted scoring and momentum for both sides. The shopping-list note underscores the practical need for better grip and equipment preparation when playing in rain-prone environments like Dublin.
Somewhere in North Carolina, Bill Belichick sat watching this year's Aer Lingus College Football Classic and wrote 'sticky gloves' in big capital letters on his shopping list, knowing his UNC side have to make the trip to Dublin next year.
Why? The rain, of course, that played a significant role in how this renewal between Iowa State and Kansas State played out. The first half ended 7-7. Both teams let the ball slip, with two fumbles in the first five minutes.
