  1. School pride but if they shared in some type of profits and their facilities were upgraded and they were a farm school they might? The kids may not mind. Yeah a lot think they are better than they are but if you didn’t get offers but were offered by a farm team with a direct pipeline to a school like Texas or Oregon or whatever you might see it different i guess? And the farm schools have their own league or whatever and can play for championships and are responsible for developing those diamonds in the rough like the Nibletts. And they get farmed up the school gets something in return. I am surprised states like Kansas and Oklahoma and Nebraska aren’t doing this or Wyoming or Idaho. It’s a quick way to get competitive and you just grab sophomores and juniors who are bigger and stronger from your farm team to fill the gaps and it gives the FBS school a chance to make the playoffs, yeah I know run on sentences and punctuation but I’m tired. I just hate seeing teams like Oregon State fail in the current system. Kansas State had to decline a bowl bc they don’t have enough players. I realize most of y’all don’t care about them but it’s truly sad to me. Surely there is a fix?
  2. I think most of us agree there is some parity with the top 50-65 FBS teams. Maybe it’s just 50 but regardless you take those major programs that belong to P4 and add a few of the other schools like your Boise States and whatever and that is the FBS cut off. The rest can be like feeder schools (like minor league baseball teams are for the majors) for the P4 and those teams develop the talent and get them ready and are compensated and can for whatever league and have their own playoffs and whatever, I’m talking out of my ass and I don’t care but there has to be a better system than this and some real benefit to having coaches and players move up to the next level without poaching and consistently robbing the lesser teams of anything they find that is good, if it’s set up like that I. A professional way it could save those 65 or so other teams with struggling programs. You attach one or two schools to a major program and they develop and cultivate the talent and then matriculate up. And if no one wants their asses they can portal but this is my thought. I’m not articulating it well but I think it would be good for the sport as a whole. Then you have true competition at the highest level for the FBS and a steady stream of talent. It’s like all the surly kids tha cannot get into UT academically so they go to a flagship and try to make good grades to eventually get in to UT. But I haven’t fleshed this out enough. Was hoping for some ideas from y’all though I have no fucking clue why, 😂
  3. Caleb Williams has talent but I don’t think he will ever truly be coachable and will continue to do shit that’s amazing and also frustrating. Ben Johnson is legit and I just think Ben and Caleb will come to blows at some point. Caleb is fun to watch but he annoys the crap out of me and if he goes into the tent next I will just watch Christmas movies. 🍿
  4. I just think it’s weird. Da Bears is Chicago and if they moved to like Indiana it’s like wtf. Why even say Chicago bears? Hope the Arlington heights project works but it sounds like that whole stadium deal is getting testy. Indiana?
  5. Well shit everyone in the NFL thread thinks I killed the packers QB bc I said I thought he was meh and right after he got drilled and is in the tent. I don’t have that kind of power damnit.
  6. I agree. I think it’s hard for them bc they see Tech as air raid only type of team. They point to the loss but Tech played pretty competitive iirc recently enough against Oregon that I feel they will advance and get past Oregon. Jmo but Oregon always looks impressive in some games and then suddenly they don’t.
  7. I didn’t do that. I don’t think. 🤔
  8. At least the committee looks about as stupid as can be. The fact there is a committee tells you already it will suck. They legit didn’t even know Miami and Notre Dame played each other and corrected their “mistake.” Texas, Vandy, Duke, BYU and Georgia Tech, ND any of these teams in the first round would have made the playoffs watchable and exciting and instead we get aggy who had a soft schedule all year until they played us, crystal ball and his Horridcanes, JMU, Tulane…Blow U and Mateer doing his best Wolverine impression from Red Dawn. Shit show. Shit show.
  9. I don’t know why and Love isn’t a bad QB and is in fact quite good at times but I’m just ambivalent about him.
  10. Gonna watch packers/Bears thing. That’s feisty. nice try good effort JMU. 😢
  11. There is no help or hope for the JMU defense unless they get a fumble or INT. And the offense just blew up there best chance at a score.
  12. Well that possession sucked…damn.
  13. Let’s go Dukes! 🔥 stop fucking around! 😂
  14. They must have had some idea this would be a more exciting game than the other two.
  15. Well at least it only took a quarter to reach the awesomeness that was the Miami v aggy game.
  16. Commercials suck. Just show movie trailers and ideas for presents for last minute shoppers.
  17. Keep taking shots Dukes. Fuck it. Looking at Oregon though I can see Texas Tech beating them. We will see but tech is a more balanced team now. Let’s go JMU!!
  18. These the Dukes came to play! Going uptempo with a defense that is like Oregon’s ain’t a bad idea. Nice to see them be on their heels though. OC scheming like a mofo for the Dukes.
  19. That would be hilarious if getting too cute and going for two early and not getting it impacted this game. We’d all be gobsmacked.
  20. Sigh… Oregon got cute lol. 😂
  21. Wonder how Chesney will do at UCLA
  22. The thing is i always love a David v Goliath type match up. I always root for the underdog when I don’t have any bias for a particular team or we ain’t playing them. It would be nice if JMU put up a bigger fight than Tulane or at least tried to make it competitive. For a quarter…
