  1. Lando qualifies first. Oscar second. Max 3rd. Max goes for broke and dive-bombs into T1, wiping out lando. Oscar takes the trophy.
  2. Let's say Oscar is close in 2nd and fighting for a win. What's the team's legitimate argument for asking him drop places? From their perspective they already secured WCC, which is the "real" objective of the sport and directly determines the rewards payout. If you're Google or OKX (the title sponsor), having one of your driver winning WDC is great... but having your driver win the race is good too.
  3. every time i see those fucking gigantic HK towers i just think what a horror show it is. fuck being stuck on the 185th floor amongst 6000 residents
  4. I'd say Texas is superior to Vandy, ND, Miami, and whatever high school team gets in by way of conference championship (Virginia, Tulane), and at the same time none of this group is worthy of being in anyway.
  5. Me, ESPN, NCAA and their official record keeper Stats Perform/LLC/INC, versus: guy on internet.
  6. That's not the rule. Nobody is making that game or making that ex-post claim. Is Ole Miss the de facto 2015 champion because they beat what would later, at the end of the season, turn out to be the #1 team in Alabama? The rankings are as-best-determined at at time of record. They are not retroactively updated at the end - almost nothing in life works this way.
  7. NCAA, ESPN, and the Texas Longhorns record the rankings contemporaneously. IMO this makes sense, because teams trend and the rankings tries -- imperfectly as it does -- to best reflect them. You could argue that the earlier rankings are less reliable and try to unweight them, but the way its done is the way its done and is just as valid.
  8. If that's the rule, we can also drop the pitch that Texas has "3 wins against the top 10"
  9. OU beat 5 ranked teams: 3 of them came in the last 4 games; 2 of those were on the road; 1 of them was Alabama. Their 1 squeaker was against LSU. ** TX beat 4 ranked teams: 2 in the recent half of the season; 1 was on the road. 2 squeaker wins against opponents worse than LSU. ** I think we're a better team than OU and would be on the favored side of a coin-flip, but you can see how their body of work can be vouched for. If hypothetical H-2-H performances is the determinant of playoff contender, we shouldn't even entertain Tulane, UNT, UVA in the group but so far nobody's strongly opposed to their inclusion?
  10. No other leagues are permitted. At the end of the regular season, the SEC starts a 16-team tournament to determine the national champion. Other teams and other leagues play in lesser bowls for consolation prizes.
  11. the clothing. the interviewers gigantic nogging. lane's solemn expression. doesn't look like a real interview, looks like a skit for a sketch tv show.
  12. fits pretty well wearing that 6'7" monster's old shirt
  13. The 3 threads competing for the absolute worst on this hellsite are about: Vince Young Quinn Ewers Arch Manning
