  1. "becomes the 1st 16-team Power 2 conference to..." There had to be a better way to tell this joke.
  2. Except UGA. They still haven't made it to College Station and 2024 was supposed to be when it happened.
  3. They decided to not decide on 3-6-6 or 1-7-7. This is a one year bridge schedule with 8 games. It sounds like they will have at least 2 rivalries protected.
  4. Many people aren't aware of the insulating properties of loose tortillas. It will save you dozens. Don't ask yourself if you can afford to have it, rather can your family afford not to have it?
  5. I didn't think BYU had a Med School
  6. Sucks, but after letting CBS short change the league for a decade, I'm more than willing to wait a year or two for ESPN to come up with the cash, as long as it's a bridge schedule that doesn't kill any of the secondary rivalries the way a 1-7-7 will.
  7. San Diego County Credit Union Holiday Bowl — NC State vs. UCLA Gift suite, fleece hoodie sweatshirt, short sleeve T-shirt, long-sleeve T-shirt
  8. Like what are we thinking here? Big 12 branded Timeshares?
  9. Maybe Kirk is adding the second half as speculation since that isn't part of the quote?
  10. Clearly, Florida and Georgia Tech have a Gentleman's Agreement.
  11. OP's dates are wrong. There are two lawsuits, for the 2021 and 2021 Holiday Bowls 2021 - UCLA pulls out at the last second, costing the bowl millions 2022 - Holiday Bowl goes as planned but they decide not to pay out the Pac-12 to cover most of previous year's cancellation, and calls it a wash despite still losing money. Pac-12 is suing for the 2022 payment, so Holiday Bowl is now suing for the 2021 debt.
  12. That would make sense. They have more slots to fill just this year.
  13. I think we are better off waiting. If we come up with a temporary 8 game schedule, it's because they don't have the vote to go to 9. But once UT and OU show up, that's two more 9-game votes. The crap would be the 8-gamers gaining enough strength now while UT and OU are not allowed to vote to lock in 1-7 for 4 or 8 seasons.
  14. I've also seen it brought up several times this week about teams having to buyout their extra OOC games. Some may be happy to kick it down the road a year or two just so they can clear some inventory without having to spend the money and gives them more time to make other changes. Of course this is also something of their own doing. If a schedule had been figured out a year ago, then they would have had a year to work on rearranging the future schedules.
  15. IIRC, there is a preseason draft where CBS only gets a certain number of protected picks, and then there's a back and forth with ESPN. It looks at the entire season. Historically, CBS always grabs Florida-Georgia as their first pick. It could just be that ESPN grabbed Texas-Bama before CBS could with their pick.
  16. OK... I think we're on the same page. There is no "non conference home games aren’t eligible" rule for CBS. That's where my confusion was.
  17. So it's a preference thing, not a contract eligibility requirement, because they have definitely had SEC OOC games as the SEC Game of the Week multiple times in recent seasons.
  18. OK... I mean, I know we've had SEC OOC games on CBS before, including the first three weeks, so I'm not clear on the distinction.
  19. I'm trying to parse this comment Are you saying there's something contractual that prevents OTA non-conference home games? Or are you saying just the first 3 weeks?
  20. You mean other than airing on CBS, right?
  21. 2:30 CT kickoff
  22. UCLA asking for their swag bags to be shipped to them weeks after they left town is icing on the cake.
  23. At this point, that article is almost a month old. I'm not sure it has anything of relevance.
