  1. Dump Oregon St., Wake Forest, Rutgers, Cal (because they simply don't care about athletics anymore), and Houston because Fuck Houston.
  2. Tell me you completely missed the point without telling me you completely missed the point. We don’t need an NFL 2.0 or NFL lite. CFB has a rabid fan base because it is a unique product. Well, it was a unique product. It’s already gone down this road with the Jumbotrons and commercials and canned music, trying too hard to emulate the “entertainment” of pro stadiums. This will be the last nail in the coffin for its unique brand.
  3. But what would motivate the haves from doing that? It would, in their opinion, dilute the amount of the pie they would receive. It’s all about money now. I see the Big 2 limiting this to 32-40 teams max. It’s all about greed at this point. I love your scenario above, but the realist in me says it won’t happen. The college football I love is dead and has been replaced with NFL light.
  4. I’m going to go a different route and give her 45 days.
  5. Joel thinks everyone wants to see only the elites play, like an NFL light. They think we are all going to gravitate to the product they force on us. I think they’ve forgotten what makes CFB fandom unique. I think excluding 2/3 -3/4 of the college football fan bases out there is short-sided and risky. If they limit this to 32 or so teams, I think they will end up destroying the value of the product.
  6. Fucking this. A BS urban legend in the same category as “you automatically get all A’s for the semester if your roommate dies.” Conferences don’t have a private school in its membership to avoid FOIA. Total myth Can we once and for all dismiss this BS line of thinking? Please?
  7. Their learning curve is flat.
  8. It's not personal, Sonny. It's business.
  9. If true that it is six schools and not four, that tells me the rumors that UO and UW were not, and are not, going to be considered by BIG are accurate, and they see no other option. Also if true, this is the absolute best scenario the current Big 12 (sans UT and OU) could have possibly dreamt of, and never would have imagined a year ago happening.
  10. Is this the equivalent to the Titanic coming up with iceberg avoidance procedures after hitting the iceberg?
  11. I agree. I just think the Big XII needs to extend the invitation, but also make them turn us down and not just leave us hanging waiting for an answer.
  12. I think if the Big XII had any hair on its balls whatsoever, it would not only invite AZ, ASU, UT, and CU, but also extend a "one-time" only invite to Oregon and UDub and say, here's your one chance...take it or leave it."
  13. 1. We need more Jethro Bodine memes in the internet world. Well-done. 2. The guy making that tweet is from West Virginia. We should be happy enough that he even knows how to spell "state".
  14. You would think with all of the populations shifts to Arizona and Colorado we keep hearing about that they would be bringing more media value to the table.
  15. I’m all in with Saint Peter’s.
  16. Game over.
  17. Do these refs not know what traveling is?
  18. Such bullshit.
  19. I was at that game. Incredible atmosphere and experience.
  20. My bad. Carry on. Hope y’all beat them this year as well.
  21. Forgive my drunk post question. Y’all beat Purdue in non-conference this season, right? Or was that a different year? Yeah, yeah ask google. Whatever.
  22. So Arkansas is the only SEC team to make it to the Sweet 16? Does my drunk ass have that right? LOL. No, wait…ROTFLMAO.
  23. You can’t help but love Mark Adams. One of the true good guys in sports. So happy for him.
