Better hope you don't have Karst topography down there as well ...

Well, well, well.

What in the fuck do we have going on in college football right now?

Looks like somebody is going to be needing the services of a football genius

You better check your skinny privilege before it costs you a decided schematic advantage.

Along the same lines...
Auburn fan is whining because the Big Ten teams haven't played or beaten enough ranked teams.
Here's where we need that diagram showing that SEC teams' rankings are inflated because they play SEC teams that have inflated rankings.

Same poster, but not the first post in the thread:

Our entire playoff was a joke last year because we let Indiana, SMU, etc in because for some reason the CFB world wants to pretend that playing Wake Forest and Boston College is no different than playing Tennessee and LSU.

Someone else says:

These rankings dont matter, it will all get sorted out in the playoffs.

To which, the original guy responds:

Like last season?

So, okay, let's look at what Auburn did in the non-conference. You know... the part of the schedule that a team can choose.
Alabama A&M
California (lost)
New Mexico
UL Monroe
All home games.

1. Get the voters to stop inflating the SEC rankings and then you'll see more ranked Big Ten teams playing more ranked Big Ten teams.
2. Stop paying attention to the AP rankings to determine strength of schedule.

here's my take on the Brian Kelly era.

you can be a complete asshole if you dig a program up from the dead and raise them to National Prominence.
Nick Saban is the pasteboard for that. People hated Nick (the person) because of how driven he was and it was obvious his way worked.

you can also be a complete idiot as long as you can at least maintain that level of relevance. Les was a literal cartoon character. But he was fun guy to hang around with and he kept the program at a high enough level long enough to stick around for over a decade.

you can be an illiterate ogre as long as your winning. O is borderline mentally handicapped (and that's not really joking). When we were winning, that was fine. Not real funny when the winning stopped.

but what you cannot be is a condescending dickhead if you aren't bringing home titles. plain and simple.
Les and O were given more rope than Kelly because their personalities were a lot easier to tolerate.
Kelly treated everyone like they were beneath him. And if you're going to act like that, you better bring home Nick Saban level results.

When you lose to Vandy (first time since 1990 we've lost to them). When you lose at home to A&M (first time that's happened since '94), you need to have SOME sort of redeeming quality. Kelly has none of those.
and just like the last guy to lose a game to Vandy, or the last guy to lose at home to A&M, Kelly will not be coaching LSU the following season.

LSU football rumors: Brian Kelly's buyout reduced by more than $30 million for 'morals code'

Report says LSU cut Brian Kelly’s buyout to about $20M using a contract “morals code,” clearing room for a high-profile coaching search.

That's only two rounds a week, every week for 4 straight years.

Figure 3-4 hours per round so yeah, he gave one work day a week to golf.

Leaves lots of time for recruiting, on field coaching and film work

T-Bob was sober long enough to have a conversation with someone?

Regarding the belief that Urban was set to replace JoePerv.

I recall reading an article back when Meyers was between his coaching stint at Florida and Columbus. It basically said that it was always expected that Urban would one day coach the Buckeyes.

According to the article I read, his office at Florida was filled with pictures of his prior days at Ohio State. It claimed he had virtually no photos of his then current job with the Gators.

Apparently, he was also seen several times wearing Ohio State clothing during his time with Florida.

So yeah, the idea that Urban would take a step anywhere near creepy valley other than to lead the Buckeyes into battle there is patently ridiculous.

LSU’s football team breakup with Brian Kelly has spawned a wave of unflattering aftershocks. In the aftermath of the 49-25 home loss to Texas A&M and Kelly’s dismissal, a local radio personality alleged that Kelly spent significant time on the golf course during his tenure, fueling frustration about focus and culture.

“Just heard BK carded over 400 rounds at a local country club in his 4 years, average score of 95,” T-Bob Hebert of Barstool Sports posted, a claim that ricocheted through Baton Rouge chatter as the program hit reset.

Login to view embedded media True statement. They created this monster and now they can't control it. Everything was fine when they were winning, concerts were in the locker room, rappers on the sideline, sunglass deals, etc. Now that they've crashed back to reality, no more ESPN mentions, podcast mentions or celebrity shout outs. They can try and fire him, and there will be a mass exodus, and they'll probably be worse off then when he arrived.

and he will throw down the race card faster than a WSOP final table player with quad Aces.

Almost everybody has Oregon written into the playoff bracket in magic marker.

But they still play AT Iowa (who lost to Indiana in the last couple of minutes) and AT Washingon.

If they drop both of those, they’ll most likely be out of the playoffs,

They have been the team I most question the bona fides of all year.

Still riding 2024's rep. Have done exactly nothing in 2025 and made IU look a lot better than they are.

Maybe it will fall back to noon after this weekend's time change;-)
