  1. Kind of like Maryland and Purdue Big 10 games on NBC? I think they can't wait until the Big 10 expands to 18. https://www.sportsmediawatch.com/college-football-tv-ratings/ Prime time Syracuse-Purdue drew 1.25 million on NBC, 12th for the day, behind Michigan's buy a win on BTN, Minnesota-UNC on ESPN, LSU-MSU on ESPN and 8 other games, including some buy a wins. Previous week Charlotte-Maryland on NBC prime time drew 665k, #17 for the week, behind Okie St.-Arizona St. on FS1, Illinois-Kansas and Ole-Miss Tulane on ESPN2 as well as 13 other games, most less than stellar matchups.
  2. Let's see. Last 20 years Pac 12 champs: USC 7 Oregon 6 Stanford 3 Washington 2 Utah 2 Other 7 zero They got Utah. They weren't getting any of the rest. Last 20 years SWC champs: aggy 6 Texas 5 Houston 4 Arkansas 2 Baylor, SMU, Texas Tech 1 each Rice, TCU 0 And BYU has an MNC. Cincinnati made the CFP.
  3. Well in fairness, 3 of the unranked unbeatens are in the SEC.
  4. Well in the coaches' poll, KSU still has more votes than Missouri. In the AP poll Tennessee is rated ahead of Florida who stomped them last night. In the Coaches' poll Tennessee is still rated while Florida is down around #29. They aren't even looking at all the scores before voting.
  5. Pete Thamel tweet: There’s optimism on both sides as they dive further into the details to figure out a potential arrangement. The Army-Navy game would be a non-conference game if Army joins the AAC and still be played after the season. 5:31 PM · Sep 14, 2023 · 21.9K Views
  6. You specifically say what the meeting is before attending. A meeting to sort things out and negotiate. You must be a lawyer. Lawyers just make things complicated and expensive. Suing before talking is just giving a big middle finger to everyone. And how smart is it that everything is frozen now? They can't get anything done on their home for next year. Nobody is going to cooperate. Many recruits in all their sports are going to go somewhere else. Its just more bad decisions as Sgt. Schultz has been making all along. Now its possible there were efforts to try to resolve things, but the fact that the conference was trying to get the meeting to figure out what they could do to keep all their staff from quitting indicates that none of the Pac 12 presidents are talking. They are as dysfunctional as ever in their dying days. It will be interesting to see if the 10 get involved in this at all or if they do their own lawsuits once this trial starts. If they do nothing, then it indicates WSU/OSU delayed everything for no reason.
  7. And then you sue on any particular thing you don't like while attending the meeting under the understanding that you don't think its an official meeting. Getting the lawyers involved STOPS negotiations. But then WSU/OSU have not shown themselves to be smart.
  8. UVA was hot, but nothing like that UCLA game in 1997. Besides the kick, I remember it being odd that we booed Virginia as they came out on the field. Virginia?!
  9. Good choices. 1. Rose Bowl 2. 1969 Big Shootout. Guess you are too young to remember that 3. 1996 Big 12 CCG 4. 1990 Houston 5. 1998 Ricky breaking the record vs. aggy Lots of other good memories mentioned. That Tony Jones late TD vs. Arkansas early 80s, Stoney Clark's stop of OU, this year's Alabama game, Bevo going after UGA at the Sugar Bowl, 1977 OU, 1976 OU where Russell Erxleban carried the team with long punts and long FGs (6-6 tie), and don't forget 1995 Brackens hit on Tech punter after fake kick-ranks up with 90 UH and 98 A&M for loudest game.
  10. Which is why they should have all had a meeting. But WSU/OSU stopped that.
  11. All of you remember who Canzano the clown's sources were? Washington St. and Oregon St. So take anything that comes out of there with a grain of salt. Besides, lawyers are paid to lie. So you have professional liars representing proven liars/delusional idiots.
  12. The hitting is good. The cheap shots they let them get away with (and Bama has become one of the worst) is not good for the players. Nick Chubb had a really nasty knee injury in Knoxville about 10 years ago when a Tennessee player hit him about 5 yards out of bounds. Not a flag at all. That is the worst part of SEC officiating.
  13. I've got to admit. There were a lot of us in the Texas-exes center really enjoying that 77-0 beating OU gave aggy back about 15 years ago. Probably wouldn't have cared who lost if it was a close game, but we were rooting for 100!
  14. They don't think of Mizzou, Pig or aggy as brothers, no matter how much aggy yells SEC-SEC-SEC. OU and us will also be outsiders for a long time.
  15. Yeah. The UT players seemed amused at the loser. Great response. The biggest busing riots ever were in Boston, Massachusetts. Idiots everywhere. Don't think we should be bigoted ourselves about people who aren't like us.
  16. That just means you consider them rivals. Its only the losers like aggy that get consolation when their SEC "rivals" beat someone else.
  17. The By-laws are not clear at all. They are very vague and poorly written. Its pretty clear that one section confuses actually leaving with giving notice of leaving. Its not clear at all who does and doesn't have voting rights now. I sure wouldn't put money on any possible outcome if it went to court.
  18. Lots of my son's Auburn friends went to Tuscaloosa. And he said there were LOTS of fights after the game. Generally, Bama fan vs. Bama fan.
  19. It sounded to me like it was one jerk. At worst it was one guy with minor chiming in from some guy near or next to him. Every fan base has some jerks.
  20. He seems like a bit of an asshole to me. I've never seen anything that makes me think he is a terrific human being. Now he is the greatest living college football coach and maybe the best ever.
  21. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/future-of-pac-12-network-a-sticking-point-as-oregon-state-washington-state-seek-to-salvage-conference/ For those Beaver & new Window Cougar fans and MWC fans who think somehow a new conference with the same name will somehow take the Pac 12's place because of NCAA grace period rules, Sankey has spoken: "...Even if they do retain the conference name, such a shift in program prominence will most likely lead to a reduction in the number of autonomy conference and automatic qualifiers (six) into the expanded 12-team bracket. "It hasn't dissolved yet; we have to see what happens. … Respectfully, the Pac-12 still exists. There has to be clarity," SEC commissioner Greg Sankey said Saturday. NCAA bylaws state a conference must be composed of at least eight teams. However, there is a two-year grace period for a league to maintain that number. On paper, are the Cougars and Beavers a viable two-team conference? "The CFP is not the NCAA," Sankey said. "I think we all understand that.""
  22. That's what's so weird about OU doing it. They actually have accomplishments. As for aggy, well they won it all in 1939.
  23. So did everyone else who beat them, which that year I think was everyone but SMU.
