so anyway, yesterday I was in the car driving home from the in-laws while the iron bowl was on. got home, saw the final score, though, “wow” and then fired up the DVR to watch.
I literally knew the outcome and was flipping the fuck out, if I had watched that game live I definitely 100% would have had a stroke.
There were definitely moments during that Michigan game where I had some stomach pains from the stress level
That appears to be the New Mexico St Aggies and not the Texas A&M Aggies
Hahahaha whoops
Yeah was about to say Godfrey (and the split zone duo crew which I can’t recommend enough for national cfb coverage - their Patreon is solid) had said this was all but confirmed a few days ago
Where would you rather live?
Feel free to list the head coaches at Arkansas that did this.
USC, but it’s actually pretty close. Neither sounds appealing at all.
This would be a great season for an 8-team playoff.
(4) Oklahoma State vs (5) Ohio State
(3) Cincinnati vs (6) Alabama
(2) Michigan vs (7) Notre Dame
(1) Georiga vs (8) Nebraska
I’d guess most would prefer LA over Baton Rouge.
The bigger reason is fan expectations combined with the probability of Oklahoma ending up in the SEC West.
Some hints from people I like about Brian Kelly to LSU, which would mean Fickell to ND
Never going to understand people who want to see top programs start the season off with a two-loss cushion.
Might as well start a NCAA Super League.
Completely agree.
Bring back the BCS formula. Keep 4 teams. No official rankings until week 4-5.
I assume Lincoln Riley is an improvement over Helton and Sark, but he’s ultimately avoiding the challenge of the SECw to take on what should be the easiest place in the country to win at.
Maybe it’s just wishful thinking as an Oregon fan, but that has to say something about the guy.
The only pac 10 schools that were anywhere near their potential during the USC dominance era were Cal and Oregon State. Washington, Arizona and Stanford absolutely sucked. Oregon played like it really was true that all the recruits went there because of uniforms. WSU fell off the map after 2003. UCLA and ASU were their typical bad-to-average selves but with worse coaches.
Point being, USC should certainly be winning a lot more than four games, but the Pete Carroll era isn’t coming back any more than the John McKay pre-scholarship limit era is.
Zero chance they hire Kelly. I could see them taking a huge risk on Kendall Briles before that.
Kendall Briles is Art’s son? This is one where I’d go sins of the father.
I guess we will see.
His players found out via social media so that’s pretty telling. It’s out in the ether that he didn’t approve of the move to the SEC so maybe that’s his justification.
I’ve seen a couple of headlines about it being Oregon’s worst nightmare but I’m not buying it.
