Tell Me About Texas a&m
SEC scheduling has been weird for a long time, trying to preserve historic rivalries and every-year non-con games. We’ve also never been to Lexington. LSU-UGA only played twice in the regular season since 2009. Last win in BR was 1994, last game was in 1995 in CS (a win for A&M) until the 2011 Cotton Bowl.

What? A&M beat LSU five in a row in the 90s before the series went on hiatus till 2012.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
This summer the Florida system in general got a court decision allowing schools to reach beyond that fee and redirect other student-derived fees to athletics. Texas as a state is not better, this is just an indicator of where the whole thing has gone off the rails for most schools.

Plot twist: The poop video was meant to be a hype video and the people getting shat on by DJT are his voters.

Good investment for whom is the question? I’ve yet to see a direct, non-funny math explanation of college athletics helping make school more affordable or better in quality for the students of a given state. Which is ostensibly why state colleges exist.

Yep. And in Florida, student fees go to athletics. It’s insane and higher ed/college sports needs to get a hard reset.

SEC Catch-all Thread
Maybe they shouldn’t have hired the Hugh Freeze experience and gone full Righteous Gemstones. Auburn being bad and losing close, boring games is a great SEC experience.

A lot of fan bases are going to be really disappointed and some mid coaches are going to get some crazy paydays. Wait till Auburn enters the chat.

2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
A few undefeated teams are a bit higher than likely to finish but that’s the nature of mid-season. - GT is good but has played an abysmal schedule. They have a weak back half, too. They’ve been playing on the edge but it’s possible they will be undefeated when Georgia comes to town, and likely get rolled. ACC champ game will be tough for them, too. They are maybe a top 15 level team. - BYU will likely fall to at least Tech or Cincy. Big XII is a knife fight. - I think A&M is a top ten team, not a top 5 team. I do think we will get one of LSU, Mizzou, and Texas and maybe can get a favorable draw in the CFP. LSU may be the best bet as we have done much better against non-mobile QBs and Vandy showed what a mobile QB and short passing game can do. - ND is a top ten team but will they get credit with the rest of their schedule? They are playing as good as anyone aside from Ohio, Indiana, and Bama. Also, why does anyone want CFB without SC-ND every year? Get it done, Trojans! - Vandy-Mizzou will be a great game for keeping CFP hopes alive. How crazy is that!

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
European roadworthineas tests are no joke. I would estimate that over 50 percent of U.S. cars on the road would fail a German inspection. I don’t know if Musk is the dumb one or if he’s just using this as a grift. Regardless, geological time is hard. 450 million years is twice as long as the dinosaurs were around (including several mass extinction events). Humans evolved 300k years ago. It’s just not worth thinking about. We need to gameplan how to keep our planet habitable for the next 200.

A&M at Arkansas - ESPN
Disagree on the bonehead stuff, kind of. He’ll sometimes get greedy and tends to sail the ball on long passes. He doesn’t make a lot of bad dangerous throws.

Green is a real talent and it’s a shame he’s on this team. Multiple times that he got out of pressure and made a play.

Chili w/o beans
Decently crisp game day called for chili. Chili blend is puya, ancho, arbol. Meat is cubed chuck and pork 2-1 ratio. No tomatoes. And a quesadilla toasted in cast iron with a bit of tallow.

What are you talking about man, he has double digit playoff wins. He took JMU to the FCS NC game and semis twice, he has some other wins too.- Trump’s America
Hard, hard, hard disagree and the statistics back me up. Across cultures, religions, continents rising levels of income, educational attainment, employment, and economic opportunity goes right along with declining birthrates and lower/later marriages. And that even holds true within countries— higher income and options means fewer kids. It holds true despite incentives and benefits to mothers; and in fact the most generous governments see some of the lowest birthrates. A lot going on with this but one of the big reasons is introducing other options, choices, and stability for women. They can afford to be selective with mates and when they do select, there is a preference for high-investment parenting into fewer children. The data are pretty clear, for the most part early marriage and lots of kids (and for that matter lots of kids) is poverty behavior.- Uniform Pron

It does but the thing is that Bloomington is a Rockwell painting. Fantastic town and place to live. - Uniform Pron
