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

Tougher schedule next year

Oklahoma
Indiana
Iowa
Penn State
Oregon
Ohio State

I know they love to chrip about "durrrr young team" but did any of these "young guys" really stand out? Besides maybe Marsh and even then he feasted on mostly bad competition

Defense might downgrade even further if they can't lure a good portal haul as well.

If Underwood doesn't take a significant step forward they could be right back at 8-4 level next year
Marsh should transfer out. He probably won't, because he was dumb enough to commit there in the first place. But he should.

2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

Or even simpler: Wait until the end of the season then for every win, you get 1 point for every win your opponent had. For every loss, you lose 1 point for every loss your opponent had.
Here's some unscientific results from the teams "on the bubble". I did take off wins from games against FCS schools, because fuck that noise, schedule real teams. This gave a couple schools some additional good math.

Game Thread THE GAME: #1 tOSU at tCun, Sat. Nov. 29th, 12 pm ET, FOX

Post the rest of the game lol
Now I see what that was all about. It's on youtube under "El Pres and Big EV..."
I watched the part where the scUM guy headbutted the ref and EV got in some zingers. "What is he stupid? What is he doing? Total Michigan scumbag. There's a lot of them. That's a Sherrone Moore team."

Yes! All of them, actually. They need to clean up that program, starting with the coaching staff. I explained it to Jake Butt on twitter. He was 100% congratulatory, fwiw.

Edit: Also watched 3 minutes at 2:44:00 and Big EV really lets him have it there, too.

If the cheaters hadn't scheduled Oklahoma, and played Ann Arbor High School, instead (let's assume they beat the high school kids), they'd have 2 losses.
Would they get a playoff spot?
I'm certainly not saying that Texas and the cheaters belong in the playoff. More that there needs to be some adjustments to the process to motivate teams to play cool OOC opponents. I don't have a solution.
yeah. I'm not putting in a 10-2 Michigan or Texas (assuming they avoid us for SW Texas State College) based on not looking good in most of their other games.
Probably need to bring in some kind of unbiased computer model that gives points for games based on your opponents and their opponents, etc. BCS style, but only use it to compare "like teams". BYU is in regardless of what they do in this model, I'm sure.

that's pretty generous. I have 8-4 as their ceiling next year with that schedule unless they make significant changes/improvement.

Ohio State @ Pittsburgh, Friday, Nov. 28, 7 PM, ESPN2

Some of you guys seem to be under the very mistaken impression that there is top-tier NIL money behind OSU basketball. In comparison to the landscape of college hoops, there is no chance OSU is spending money in the same ballpark as the blue bloods. Cooper Flagg made $28 million in NIL at Duke last season - OSU basketball is never going to compete with that. We literally have guys leaving the team and/or choosing other schools for NIL every year - and these aren't just guys who would help the team, these are players that actually started at OSU or obviously would start at OSU. That hurts your team's ceiling bigtime when NIL is keeping you from fielding an appropriate starting 5 every year. When there isn't enough money behind OSU basketball to field a top-tier starting 5, you have to start coming to grips with reality and understand there's no move you can make with the coaching staff to correct the underlying problem. The NIL money is mostly behind the football program, plain and simple.

I don't think most of us are expecting a constant high ceiling but is it too much to ask to make the tournament somewhat consistently? Or at least not to constantly stumble away games against bad teams like Pitt?

I just don't think Diebler as a basketball coach purely is good enough, he's not really doing much to show us that he's not just a continuation of his former boss

If you can't win the major NIL battles you need a coach who can get the best out of that next wave of players. I do not think Diebler is that coach.
