  1. I’m in the minority I’m sure but I just want us to get through the rest of the reg season relatively unscathed and guys get healthy for post season. Losing to TN, not great, but I’m more interested how we can work through these last few weeks and get hit for a trip to Omaha!
  2. OU, TAMU, MSU, and Michigan. I can’t believe you’re watching the f-ing UF game lol.
  3. This dude!! Such an incredible career and story!!
  4. Over, parlayed with Sorsby under 3.5 million in legal fees.
  5. Uggghhh I wish. That’s on my bucket list for sure!
  6. Haha I’d take Petey all day in that one
  7. Tennessee is the most surprising to me, we thought our lost decade was bad they’re going on a lost quarter century!!
  8. Incredible interview. I teared up when he was talking about his son asking him about when he was going to heaven!!!
  9. I’m against this as much as I’m in favor or football playoff expansion.
  10. Is this the geriatric senior bowl, sponsored by depends and AARP??? 🤣🤣🤣
  11. Nope not a chance, can’t be trusted. I wouldn’t let him back in the game. Hell even Pete Rose knew you don’t bet on your team…as a player at least.
  12. Yes I did reference playoffs at all other level because it is better and more interesting. The hemming and hawing is always there no matter what because we always want to consider what could’ve been. When we settle it on the field at least it’s between two teams and not a decision about 2 or 4 teams using a computer algorithm and committee. As a fan I’d rather the committee and computers decide the 24 best not the 2, 4, or even 12. I don’t disagree that the powers will protect their interests. Head to head isn’t the end all, but when comparing two teams with the same record they’ve played head to head the team that won head to head comes out on top. The negative assumptions I’m discussing is that expansion will reduce the number of quality games in the regular season. I fundamentally disagree with that as stated before. You also assume that there will be a watering down of regular season match ups, but if you’re playing in a tough conference and against quality opponents out of conference every week matters because every team is good. My assumption is that not only will the games matter more but the parity will grow because you’ll have more teams with opportunities to make money and players to play on the big stage. It’s fine if we don’t agree. I’ve been an advocate for expansion since the BCS started before I was even in college. I’m not saying that we need to expand beyond 24 but I think 16-24 is the sweet spot for college football. That is unless you have consolidation into tiers where we have the top 32-40 D1 teams then everyone else plays in tiers below that. If you have 32 or 40 teams then it makes complete sense to decrease the number of spots relative to the site of the pool.
  13. Complain all they want, but get better and that’ll sort itself out.
