Notre Dame (football only discussion)

So, in Notre Dame's eyes the ACC should have spent their time advocating for a team that is not in the ACC?? And NOT in favor of a team, Miami, that actually IS in the ACC? I mean, Notre Dame ITSELF has made it perfectly clear, they are independent in football. As ORD said, if ND made the playoff, none of that money was gonna end up in the ACC coffers. Fuck them. Ridiculous.
Well, you're obviously ignoring the fact that ND sells stadiums out when they come to play these poverty ACC teams. So the ACC should be thanking them for lowering themselves to the ACC level. In fact, fuck the B1G and the SEC for not getting into a bidding war to sign up for a semi-partnership with ND. And fuck the NFL, too. And why the fuck doesn't every money making company in the entire world pay a 10% fee for being lucky enough to watch ND every weekend?

Utah Utes (official thread)

Fans wouldn’t give a rats ass. It would change nothing in the field.
I think fans would definitely give a rat's ass when they tune into Prime TV to watch the Columbus Buckeyes play the Tuscaloosa Crimson Tide. I know it is basically minor league football today, but it is still called college football for now. Do the alumni groups continue to support? Do the Wal-Mart fans continue to buy up all of those t-shirts? I think a super league or disconnecting from the schools will be the death of it all.

2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

Yuck. I know it’s all coming but it sure doesn’t make me enthusiastic about the future.

The bigger the league (32-48 teams), with only big boy teams, the more likely you get revenue sharing and then parity. Buckeyes’ chances at winning titles then diminishes.

Sorry but I quite like that Ohio State is positioned in the 1% now. I have enough shitty, pro teams that never accomplish anything.

The other thing I see happening on this path to optimize profits is that the teams’ connections to their respective universities could become so attenuated that students/alumni lose their emotional attachment to the team. Not sure what effect that ultimately has on this new professional football league, but I think it’s a pretty fundamental change.
Yep, will Ohio State fans enjoy going 7-5 because the MAC, Rutgers, and Kentucky's of the world are not included? Now it is Bama, Texas, Oregon, and Michigan to finish the season.

I don't believe anyone will tune in to see the Columbus Buckeyes play the Bloomington Hoosiers. I have been wrong once before so who knows.

Ohio State vs. #13 Illinois, Tuesday Dec. 9, 730pm EST, Peacock

A front rim friendly bounce 3. Gotta be kidding.

There’s just a losing stench that won’t go away.

This game wasn't as bad as it coulda been but yea these are the types of games we need to start winning to flip the script and eliminate that stench. Gotta get em at home cause we really likely aren't on the road, the better teams in the conference.

Cincinnati Reds (2026 Season Thread)

He'll be 33 right in the middle of the WBC in March.

His career more or less is the same as Adam Dunn (a few more homers maybe), but at least Dunn sorta played some defense.

Could you imagine paying Adam Dunn $30 million at season to hit .230 and strike out 200+ times?! :lol:

Marty's head just exploded

:lol:

all joking aside, you aren't paying him 30MM a year to hit .230, you are paying him $30MM a year for having the 6th best wRC+ in baseball last year.
