  1. But did they really profit off of the move? The payout an FCS school gets for 1 blue blood bodybag visit likely dwarfs their media money.
  2. I remember a Saturday afternoon movie based on The Green Knight with Sean Connery. I loved the poem in school, but this movie butchered the ending. Did I imagine this film? I don't feel like checking.
  3. Regardless it was the wrong thing to do. He should have punched him.
  4. At the time the brawl happened I thought Miami's real embarrassment is people not know they played a school called "Florida International" Little did I know the body bag game was about to become an annual siesta.
  5. So tragic. I'm glad to read your community is resilient.
  6. Agree with all of those except 4 should be Catholics-Convicts. It's not often a rivalry takes on the dueling characters of the entire nation. I do miss marking the year by remembering how the Sparty game went.
  7. We should just call them something like Bowls in Name Only and bar them from the playoff porn. The choice of whether Fresno State stays home or plays a football game on Dec 21st has absolutely no relevance as to how ESPN determines a national champion, regardless of how the game is branded.
  8. Seriously? Hint: Golic, and his son, went to Notre Dame. The one college where they still kinda have anti-abortion sentiment on campus.
  9. I have never met an Irish Fan that claimed a title in 1970. A few smirk that ND cleared the path for what I believe was Nebraska's first natty. The loser of the bowl games usually mentions that before the mid-1970s they were considered commercial expositions that had little to do with extracurricular athletics or the national title. Now that the bowls are ingrained into college football's unique tradition, they should be separating them from the playoff, not pretending the two customs are compatible.
  10. But since that will never be a playoff game, it's not correct to compare the Muffler Bowl to the Cotton; instead treat the small bowls as an extra regular season game Thursday night on ESPNU.
  11. I get the feeling that she's cheating on me.
  12. Maybe but on any given day you can sing the tune of SWAYR. I saw Shaft was on last night. The original won a contemporaneous Oscar?
  13. Have two play-in games done entirely under the new overtime rule 🙄
  14. Just cut to the high card.
  15. Y'all don't have the right 'meme' for Cousin Oliver College
  16. Yes it's hard to say whom this hurts. Bama and Clemson already have all the talent they need and have added Jucos. So how often do either really need a breakout from Troy State? I think most of the transfers will be the 4*s who are still third on the depth chart their sophomore year. The HC wants them to wait and develop while their agent is looking around for a team that offers a starting job. So it may just hurt all programs equally.
  17. When I see Lancer on his horse I know it's time to stop.
  18. There's no rule saying coaches cannot be fired or hired at any time i.e. during a game. I think there should be a rule saying intra-game transfers should be between quarters. Probably at halftime if the player is going to transfer to the opponent's program.
  19. Is this the thread for The West Wing?
  20. He seemed kind of a free lancer. Did Burns rebut the legend that Hemingway got to Paris ahead of the US army and 'liberated' a bar?
  21. Nonetheless Barry Alvarez was the DC for our not to recent most recent national title. The wrong call here and and it would over 50 years since we won one.
  22. I believe Alvarez would have gotten at least a 5 digit bonus if they had beaten Stanford in the Rose Bowl. IIRC the Cardinal won a decisive 6 point victory.
  23. Some vague rumors say that AD Barry Alvarez was hard to work for.
  24. Just got her line in Archer, This isn't my first grand pricks [sic] ya know!
