  1. I can't feel good about the Dickerjames school getting back in the big time. Much prefer Rice to get that slot. SMU is the one who deserved to get permanently relegated. The only good thing they ever did after Doak Walker and Jerry LeVias, was letting Dickerson keep the Gold Trans Am aggy gave him.
  2. A clear hold when he was beat and needed to slow his man. Would have been a clear TD. How is that weak? Fuck Philly and their douchebag coach Uh, the guy was wide open if Mahomes had hit him.
  3. I would have tried on 3rd down. Agree on going down on 2nd.
  4. Chiefs deserve a blocked kick run back for a TD.
  5. Doesn't get called 95% of time. Pretty minor. Fix is in. Game deciding penalty vs. Bengals. Penalty takes any remaining time away from Eagles.
  6. Well if you don't consider what fans want, then its ok. Disrespectfully, you are a mathematical idiot if you think any scheduling is fair when you are in one division and miss 6 out of the other 15 schools.
  7. First 10 were all SWC members at some point.
  8. If you have 15 other teams and only play 9 others and don't play divisions and talk about competitive balance, you are a liberal arts major. You have no concept of math. The Big 10 was pretty random when they had 1 or 2 every year rivals and played 8 out of the other 10 after PSU joined. Some mediocre team would get lucky on the schedule and win or compete for the title. When you miss 6 out of 15, there is no competitive balance. So you schedule 2 rivals with 8 games and 3 with 9. With one rival, you end Alabama-Tennessee, which was both schools biggest game for decades. Auburn-Alabama has only overtaken it in recent decades. And you end Auburn-Georgia, the most played rivalry in the SEC and 2nd most in FBS. Georgia leads 63-56-8 after winning the last 6. It just makes no sense.
  9. My son goes to Auburn. aggy was playing at Auburn the day after a parent's night. We decided about 3 weeks before to go to parent's night. The closest hotel we could find was in the Atlanta suburbs! if you are going to an Auburn game, plan well ahead.
  10. You don't understand what makes the SEC special. Georgia hates Auburn, Georgia Tech and Florida the way we hate OU. South Carolina and Tennessee are pretty fierce too. When they play Clemson, its somewhere between the top 3 and S. Carolina and Tennessee. Back in the SWC days we had OU at the top and UH, aggy and pig at a lower level. Now its just OU with Baylor/Tech/TCU all well below how Georgia views Tennessee.
  11. Sounds like projection to me. That's a mirror you are looking into, not a window.
  12. Sounds like the $20 million to Fox ($10 apiece) is all we are paying to get out early.
  13. Its either not true or it has something to do with Fox.
  14. I miss the Big 12 1.0, when CU and NU were good, BU was Kansas bad, KSU had Bill Snyder 1.0 and we had an offensive line, Ricky, Major, VY and Colt.
  15. Daniel Figurelli got a grad degree there. Close thread?
  16. I guess it depends on ESPN paying for the extra conference game. But 1+7 isn't going to happen. It might be 2+6 or 3+5. Georgia isn't going to have to choose between Auburn and Florida. Alabama isn't going to have to choose between Auburn and Tennessee.
  17. For some reason I'm not getting this and don't feel like messing with it. Is it red and blue window Cougars?
  18. No we won't. We did chant S-E-C, S-E-C as everyone was beating the pigs out the door. We may sing sha-na-na-na hey-hey good-bye.
  19. https://big12sports.com/news/2023/2/9/conference-big-12-announces-agreement-for-withdrawal-of-oklahoma-and-texas.aspx An official version! Finally done!
  20. Doesn't fit. The Cherokee in Oklahoma had slaves!
  21. Yeah. UH is better than most of the SEC where we are headed.
  22. So you are too stupid to understand that history matters. You are lightyears from having a coherent mind. if you think UH is in a war zone, you should go to USC's campus. I don't hear that being used as an argument against them. And you forgot, Guy didn't win with Elvin Hayes either, another of the top 50. So 3 of the top 50 got recruited to UH. And Houston IS #2 right now in basketball, having spent some time at #1, not even being in a P5. And not being in a P5, they did win a NY6 bowl and finish in the top 10. When I was in school, UH was a bigger rival than aggy, because aggy was...aggy. Not as big as the pigs or land thieves, but bigger than the farmers.
  23. https://www.dallasnews.com/sports/smu-mustangs/2023/02/08/smu-rumored-pac-12-expansion-candidate-keeps-commissioners-visit-under-the-radar/ Pac commissioner pictured at SMU basketball game tonight.
  24. Actually, I think Houston was the one essential addition for the Big 12. Even more than SDSU for the Pac, they were needed for visibility in Houston. For the press they get in Houston, Texas Tech and TCU might as well be Iowa St. Baylor isn't much better, but there are a few alums.
  25. People forget. Houston has been competitive in a major conference. They won the SWC in football 3 of their first 4 years. They had Phi Slamma Jamma (for you youngsters-Hakeem Olajuwon, Clyde Drexler, Michael Young, et. al. and 3 straight trips to the final 4). Houston is the surest bet of the group. Maybe the pros limit their upside compared to UCF, but they have proven themselves and don't have a potential ceiling caused by a religious connection.
