  1. Anyone not already in the Big Ten or SEC that has a stadium with less than 50k seats is highly unlikely to make it into a super league.
  2. They only go as west as Colorado, but if they were in the Northwest it would be a perfect fit for Oregon State.
  3. Sonny Dykes does not like the way this conversation is going…
  4. I think most people agree/concede that the SEC is virtually guaranteed 4 spots and the Big Ten 3, plus the 3 auto bids for the Big12/ACC/G5 and you’re at 10 with 2 spots left for: Notre Dame #2 Big 12 team #2 ACC team #4 Big Ten team #5 SEC team I have a hard time seeing a committee made out of people geographically dispersed across the county giving the SEC a 5th spot when they already have a third of the field.
  5. Pass. I think you’ll end up with 3 conferences ranging from 20 teams (like the SEC) to 24 teams like the Big12.
  6. If that’s the case, explain all the other aggy games… (Don’t really just seems odd)
  7. aggy at Florida is a 9.4 but Florida at Texas is a 8.5? This seems guy seems to really like him some aggy. If I remember I’d like to go back after the season and see how right/wrong his predictions are…
  8. S Tier: Playing 2 Power 4 teams, one of which is a blueblood or near blueblood status, and a solid G5 school (Florida this year*) A Tier: Playing a blueblood/near blueblood school along with another P4 team (WVU) B Tier: Playing a blueblood P4 team (Texas this year) or 2 non blueblood P4 teams (TCU) C Tier: Playing a non blueblood P4 team and a solid G5 team (Okie State) D Tier: Playing a non blueblood P4 team and a weak G5 team (Kansas) F Tier: No power 4 teams Note: if you play an FCS team with an 8 game conference schedule you drop down a tier.
  9. It’s better than WE ARE COMING! TO YOUR CITAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY (insert generic college reference here x40)
  10. We got hacked again…or a cert expired not sure which…
  11. Waymo has plenty of issues too (a 2 second google search would tell you that). I follow the self driving cars very closely and there are numerous issues each month amount all companies. Tesla has the most miles on the road so they obviously have the most visibility. It’s risky for everyone at this moment, but innovation requires some element of risk.
  12. Was it scheduled back in the 1960s?
  13. Huge IF true
  14. “The Quality is Totally Acceptable”
  15. West Virginia behind Colorado is certainly an opinion from someone who has never been to either.
  16. This photo shop is just amazing. Clearly, you spent a ton of time on this. 😂
  17. Those spheres can grow and shift over time. Look at cities like Waco and Laredo, eventually they will be their own economic spheres rather than simply sphere adjacent. The cities and suburbs will continue to grow, but if you want to help small towns Texas really should be pushing for more Federal interstate dollars. While we have the most miles of interstate in the US, the majority of those are taken up by just a handful of routes. As far as number of interstate highways Texas only has 16 while California has 26 connecting early every major city to each other. Interstate 14 is going to be very beneficial for many of those communities West of I35, and I69 will help connect South Texas>Corpus>Houston>Deep East Texas>Texarkana but there are clearly other areas of opportunities in this state that could benefit from this type of expanded infrastructure. Austin>Houston, DFW>WF>Amarillo(w/ a Spur to Lubbock), Deep East Texas>Central Texas (mirror of IH14). Just look at a map and see all the small town that this could benefit. Clearly this is a double edge sword as they could just turn into glorified suburbs down the road, but if we are worried about these towns truly dying, this is a great way to increase population.
  18. Give them time.They will. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEC_Football_Legends Just claiming people from teams who leave you seems weird. Both just feel odd.
  19. Yeah, my first reaction was to cringe, but it would be worse if the Big 12 posted it I suppose.
  20. Doubly so if that 9-4 champ is Iowa State.
  21. Yeah that’s not how the smash burger looks.
  22. Yep, they want to see how these new 16-18 team conferences and 12 team CFP shake out before investing anymore. If ratings go up, like they hope, we may see another round of realignment in 2030 or so.
  23. Just had one. It was good for a fast food burger but I’d still rather eat a Whataburger patty melt.
