I had a lot of respect for his performance as an athlete, notwithstanding the distractions, but Coach Prime is a self-promoting idiot.

I remember sitting with him when he opened his Jerry Lucas Beef & Shakes on Huy Rd near where the post office used to be at Northern Lights. Really a bad site decision.

Rely on them for what? Texas is already a joke this year. If they find their way into the playoffs then they can be another joke.

We're not at the point in time where I need to take some big swings to get back into this - but I would like to be trailing by 15 or less points going into the Thanksgiving/Rivalry week nonsense.

I'll take WVU on the road, in the desert for 11.5 please.

Either you weren't really looking or you are wildly incompetent.

Ever work for someone or have a boss where you ask yourself "how do you have this job?!?" NFL Front Offices can be incredibly similar, especially when it comes to talent evaluation.

I don't think they did.
I haven't looked at the polls this week, but last week, there was no G5 team in the top 25. But Memphis was put into the 12 spot.
I'm saying that that the rule should be that if you aren't in the top X teams (whatever X is), you aren't in the playoffs, no matter which other criteria you meet.
If no G5 team (*conference winner) makes it into the top 25, then no G5 team should be in the playoff.
Same goes for ACC, SEC, Big Ten, whatever. I mean, I can't really imagine a situation where a P4 conference winner isn't in the top 25, but if you aren't in the top 25, I don't care how many conferences you won, you aren't in the playoff.
That's my vote.

Tennessee getting comically propped up so they can slide Vandy in if Vandy beats beats them.

Tennessee plays New Mexico State and Florida before then so unless there's a big upset they will easily move into the top 20 by the. With 3 losses and their best win being against Mississippi State

Burrito Supreme is the only choice.

Although it has been quite some time since I last ate Taco Bell.

Georgia St

Sainristil not being a bust is the biggest surprise on that list.

Texas State

They should pick a number. 15. 20. Something. If you aren't ranked in that number, I don't care if you won your conference, you can go sit in a birthday cake because you don't belong in the playoffs.

Looks like Kent State tried to blow it and give the game to Action U, but the good guys prevailed in OT and now have the Wagon Wheel.

52 of 110 combined shots were 3 point attempts, most of which were missed. This is why I stopped watching basketball. It's turned into a chuck and pray sport.

that should read "The Governor" instead of LSU.
He's basically typing up his own political obituary right now and is too stupid to even realize it.
Hell he's somehow figured out a way to make me glad I left Louisiana.

Scoot Woodward had the buyout secured (from private donors) and in his back pocket to use pending negotiations with Kelly.

Then Huey P. Landry steps in and can't keep his mouth shut. Bashes Kelly, bashes the buyout, bashes Kelly's agent, etc. Boasts that Louisiana ain't footing a bill like that (which the state wasn't footing anyway). Runs off Woodward and puts his little puppets in place as President and AD.

Negotiations go to shit and now here comes the lawsuit. And that lawsuit is against the State. and is now sitting on the State AG's desk.
And LSU will lose that lawsuit.

Meaning we went from the state Taxpayers not paying a penny for any of this to paying for all the court and legals fees for this fiasco, PLUS whatever dollar amount Kelly wins (because good luck rounding up the money again from the donor you just cut out of the loop).

Got the detail about Michigan cheating right. Suggesting Auburn is as good as Oregon and talking up Vandys wins against bad SEC teams delegitimizes whatever you call this…

John Cooper finished #2 twice in three years. Is he elite?

Dude needs his ranking redone. Easily a 5 star prospect with his size, HS production, huge arm, etc. Not sure why he has fallen like a rock since last year, when he was a 5 star.
