2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments, Arrogant Twatwaffles, Emasculated Cucks, Feckless Marmots, Dirty Cheaters "Mid"chigan

He lost the bowl game in 2022, and laid an absolute rotten egg in the bowl game in 2023. People here were actively calling him Cooper 2.0.
Lol Let me laugh you out of the building. No one blamed him for the 2022 game. If anything they blamed Knowles.

And 2023 he was playing a 3rd string QB who was clearly not ready after mccord bailed and brown got hurt. Even then he lost 14-3. Now yes it looked like you coul dhave give us infiniate qtrs and we weren't scoring 14.

But he was called cooper for TSUN and TSUN only

I don't give a shit WHO was coaching that team in 2023, they weren't winning that game once Brown got hurt.

I still can’t wrap my head around DeBoer potentially leaving for them. If he beats IU, I just cannot envision Alabama letting him walk away.

if they had a deal worked out already I also struggle with it staying this tightly under wraps.

DeBoer is not leaving, this is all extremely wishful sunshine pumping being pushed by the usual suspects in the scUM media sphere.

That guy would have to smoke more Crack than Tyrone Biggums in a Dave Chappelle Show episode to leave Tuscaloosa for the whore up north.

I mean Ryan Day wouldn't have lost the bowl game as well going by his record. Not that that would have made us feel much better

2025 Cotton Bowl: #2 tOSU vs #10 Miami-FL, Wed 12/31 7:30 ET at JerryWorld

This is partly skewed by officiating tendencies from conference to conference. With the likelihood that we'll draw an SEC crew for this game, we should expect penalties to be called more aggressively than we're used to in Big Ten games. SEC and ACC refs are not shy about throwing flags
Ehh you say that but the SEC seems to let them play physical and in general they hate targeting lol

So they'll actually call holding on Miami???

they’re one of the more undisciplined teams in terms of penalties (98th compared to 18th for OSU)

This dweeb got way too big on tCun because of some cheating. He's a dorky Scam Webb now. Calls Brohm the "best developer of QBs in the game" because of David Blough and Aiden O'Connell? Huh?

You CANT make this shit up. Big Toe Head's rolodex is really just a index of Harbaugh rejects who they are ok with casting off.


"Was told within the last 24 hours that Michigan has Baltimore Ravens OC Todd Monken on its shortlist and have every intention of speaking with him this week, if they haven't already. Not going to speculate about the legitimacy of his candidacy until we see how things develop after this week but he's certainly in the mix."

Monken is about to get ran out of Baltimore, the natives are very restless with him and his play calling. His success in his time there can basically be handed to having Lamar Jackson. This would be a TERRIBLE hire.

2025 Cotton Bowl: #2 tOSU vs #10 Miami-FL, Wed 12/31 7:30 ET at JerryWorld

Can’t wait for this game but the more I think about things. The more I think this..

They’re on par with AM and Notre Dame. Won both but could’ve easily lost. Very evenly matched games.

They’re not at our level though. They need a lot of things to go right to win on 12/31. They can win but the margins are small.

This is a team that lost to Louisville and SMU in the same season in a terrible ACC.

2025 Cotton Bowl: #2 tOSU vs #10 Miami-FL, Wed 12/31 7:30 ET at JerryWorld

Regarding Ohio State’s pass protection, the impression I got against Indiana wasn’t that the players were getting beat badly in one vs one situations (outside of possibly RG, who was probably playing injured and is getting a new starter and seemingly can’t get much worse), it was Indiana doing things in the back 7 to confuse Sayin and make him hold the ball too long, allowing the stunting rush to get home.

Sayin said during interviews yesterday that he felt he was holding the ball too long.

This was helped by Indiana having extra weeks to prepare a scheme specifically to mess with Sayin, and hurt (from Ohio State’s perspective) by the complete trash fire of a week Ohio State had combined with receivers who weren’t 100%.

I don’t think the OL situation is as bad as it feels right now, despite Miami’s DL clearly being good.

I think healthy receivers, a better scheme (more time to prepare plus more focused coaches), a more locked in Sayin (who isn’t losing time to the awards circuit), and an opponent who hasn’t been exclusively preparing for a month, are all factors that will give the offense the ability to look much, much better than their last performance despite a significant challenge for the OL in pass protection.
It was a variety of things. IUs front was very active with a lot of stunts and their back 7 was very good. They’re a very zone heavy team.

To make it worse it seemed we were calling a lot of deep shots which led to Julian holding the ball.

Miami really relies on their skill to win one on one. Not a lot of stunts from the reports I’ve heard and also while a mix coverage team they’re more so a man coverage team.

There’s clearly a style of defense that gives us issues and always has. That style is almost exclusively zone, make us work down the field, and then suffocate us into field goals (which we often miss).

This Miami team is not great with turnovers (OSU has 6 INT, Miami with 10), they’re one of the more undisciplined teams in terms of penalties (98th compared to 18th for OSU), and they play a style of defense/offense we do well against.

Miami either is going to have to be clearly the best team up front or they’re going to need OSU to melt down to win. Considering I think it’s about even up front they’re going to need OSU to implode to win.

2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

Group of Five schools belong in the College Football Playoff, but a modern Cinderella is unlikely

Why modern college football is not built for the 'little guy' anymore​

A mere mention of the term "Group of Five" makes certain sects of the college football fandom flare up. There is a seemingly eternal debate -- especially around the College Football Playoff -- surrounding whether Group of Five programs deserve the same level of access as their Power Four counterparts.

The arguments can become impassioned and are often the source of long chains of back-and-forth on social media. Make no mistake: this writer stands firmly on the side that the Group of Five needs some sort of representation in the College Football Playoff. Anything less would completely delegitimize over half the schools in the FBS.

Thanks to some ACC shenanigans, an unprecedented two Group of Five squads made the 12-team field. No. 11 Tulane suffered a 41-10 loss to No. 6 Ole Miss and No. 12 James Madison put up a good fight in a 51-34 road defeat at the hands of No. 5 Oregon. The Dukes did fall behind 34-6 late in the second quarter.

Neither Tulane nor James Madison performed terribly, even if the final scores tell a different story. The Green Wave moved the ball well offensively -- they had 421 yards of total offense to Ole Miss' 497 -- but several back-breaking mistakes prevented them from capitalizing. James Madison could have rolled over after digging itself into a deep hole early. Instead, the Dukes outscored Oregon, which kept its first team on the field for a majority of the game, 28-17 in the second half.

Moral victories don't count for much in a single-elimination format. Unfortunately for the Group of Five, moral victories are the closest it will get to College Football Playoff success. Modern college football isn't built to support Cinderellas.

Expanding the College Football Playoff field won't fix this issue. College football's postseason isn't March Madness, where a smaller team can get hot while making an inspiring run deep into the tournament.

Make no mistake then, that writer isn't making any sense.

If over half the teams in CFB are indeed legitimate, then having their own G5 playoff should attract enough attention to make it economically viable, no? FCS does it.

Why not just call it like it is? 136 teams (or whatever the current total is up to) is absurdly bloated. The non-P4 teams are just trying to fight for some of the money that the P4 teams generate. If you made the G5 teams go compete on their own, they'd quickly get shut down or shown for the different level of football they are.

The current P4 + ND field is too big as it is, most of those B12 and ACC teams don't belong but that's as far as the Cinderella thing should go.

The G5 needing/demanding/requiring a seat at the table shouldn't be taken as an axiom.
