Ha - I didn't even notice. Also, 3 are in one quadrant.
It would ensure that the SEC gets to the Final Four, but I think you're right. They'll spread them out. And I think they should - if the SEC (or any conference, for that matter) is really as good as they say they are, let them beat the other conferences en route to playing each other in the semifinals and finals.

Can they actually take advantage of the momentum this time? The last 2 times they had playoff walkoffs vs the Yankees (2017 and 2022) they went on to get embarrassed in the insuring games losing all of them and both series.

Bagmen.

Makes sense now. The rumor leading up to the game, the fumble, and an underwhelming game where they tended to only use him in sorter yardage or pass plays.

I doubt OSU pulls him, or he even gives OSU a look. With Sayin, and then TSC, I highly doubt Curtis gives OSU a look

Wasn’t suggesting that, just implying that he re-opened his recruiting to get a serious NIL deal from somebody.

We can all agree that the Knowles/Johnson relationship can be best compared to Joker/Harley Quinn. The questions are "Which is which?" and "Are we making an action movie or a musical?".

If Day can finally address this, OSU wins the CFP.

If Burke stops the first deep shot or two Oregon goes back to its short game, They took what they were given.

He's at it again, attacking fans who are critical of Will Howard. Now, I disagree with those fans, but Herbstreit is doing this not out of any sincerity or attempt to be a real sports journalist. Rather, it's part of his whole unhinged need to attack Ohio State in any way because he thinks it makes him come off as a non-homer.

Also, still complete radio silence regarding the biggest on-field cheating scandal in ncaa history.

I think it has a lot to do with a reluctance to stunt and the corresponding issues that can pop up with run fits and pass rush lanes.

So what I'm getting out of this is that LJ has a preference to coach h for a certain type of defensive front, and JK wants to run more odd fronts that heavily involved a 2pt weakside edge for his "base".

Yet somehow there's a conflict here? I'm not quite understanding how LJ would be able to sabotage that unless he struggles to coach foot/hand sync and pass rush technique from a 2pt start?

You didn’t like 2019?

I loved 2019, but was able to actually see that Ed is not anywhere close to the top of the list of reasons 2019 happened.
when 39 of your 40 years in the coaching profession show that you are absolutely NOT head coaching material, it's pretty obvious the 1 is the complete fluke.

but 2019 happened.

know what else happened while Ed was here?

school's first ever loss to a Sunbelt school
the most lopsided loss in series history to Mississippi State
the most lopsided loss in 30+ years to Alabama
the most lopsided loss in series history to Auburn
the only LSU coach since Stovall with multiple losses to Mississippi State
the only LSU coach to be shutout twice by Alabama since the Vietnam war ended
first home loss to Auburn in 20 years
20 year bowl streak ended.
back to back seasons without a winning record for the first time this century
average margin of defeat against Alabama nearly twice as many point as Les (who absolutely needed to go for not keeping us competitive)
complete implosion of the roster

and that's not even counting his multiple off field issues as well

the negatives outweigh the positives at a better than 10:1 clip (start counting off the field embarrassments and it's closer to 20:1)
further evidence that the 1 wasn't his doing.

Impossible scenario. No way in hell do they put all four SEC teams on one side of the bracket.
