  1. No not softer, football gave us time to recover from the reality since hope died fairly early especially for Texas fans except in the 2000's. Now hope dies late for the teams in contention. I equate not making the play-off to how everyone felt around here after the Colorado loss and the BCS bullshit of 2008.
  2. What? It use to be that the minute one lost 1 game the feeling of crap another year of not winning the MNC is very likely and this season sucks! Therefore in the past there was time to recover and enjoy the season for what it was since a second or third loss did not change the predicament. Now that feeling only happens toward the end of the season once it is clear it is over and it lingers for the entire off-season. Now tell me did you enjoy that Colorado loss?
  3. Did you sleep with her "Yes", Did you assualt her "Yes". For those that are unfamiliar with the yes joke.
  4. So what you are describing definitely happens but in this case I do not perceive her as being in Lou Ann's position. Then again only she knows why it happened and all of us can speculate and that speculation will fall between she wanted to get ahead to she is a 100% victim of Moore's position of power. The truth rarely lies on one end or the other.
  5. To be fair every insider today did the same. Crain, Barstool, etc, etc. Like somebody said earlier this was an open secret at Michigan. Kind of like the Baylor scandal on shaggy until it finally came out and made the news.
  6. Some insiders said they heard it from reliable sources after the Oklahoma loss.
  7. He is an aggy and they never STFU even when they get their shit kicked in.
  8. Round two never, round one already sucks.
  9. All we need now is Bama being left out.
  10. Mergott is not going to hold on to that ball tight.
  11. Duke your reward is you are out
  12. So false start and going lOOB by Duke to stop the clock twice is on the refs?
  13. Duke is working hard at giving this one away.
  14. Parity is what the portal has brought.
  15. Did not know about the HS system so it is very close to the play in games system I proposed. So I took the time using my system based on conference standings and play-in selections to setup the match ups. SEC Top 4 plus play-in AQ Bama, UGA, Miss, Aggy, (Texas 0.5 bid) BIG Top 4 plus play-in AQ tOSU, Indy, UO, SC, (Michigan 0.5 bid) Big12 Top 2 plus play-in AQ Tech, BYU, (UTAH 0.5 bid) ACC Top 2 plus play-in AQ Virginia, Duke, (Miami 0.5) - ACC is allowed to have their stupid standings Play-in at large OU, ND, Vanderbilt, G6 My Ranking: OU, ND, Miami (host), Texas (host), Vanderbilt, Utah (host), Michigan (host) and G6 Play-in Games: G6 at Miami Vanderbilt at Texas OU at Michigan ND at Utah
  16. The playoff system is for a field of 16 teams, with four slots decided by play-in games. Notre Dame and the Group of 6 would have to play their way in, even if they're ranked number one in the AP poll. Why? Because fuck ND they need to join a conference, and I want the Group of 6 to maintain their sacrificial lamb status without being in the 16-team field. Only four teams would be selected by the committee, and the rules could require them to choose from the eight highest-ranked teams that didn't earn an automatic bid through a BCS-type formula. They'd have to explain in writing, with a press release, why each selected team is ranked ahead of the teams they bypassed. Structure: The playoff system includes 12 automatic qualifiers and 8 play-in teams, with 4 pay-in teams being automatic qualifiers and 4 being at-large play-in teams. Each Power 4 conference ends up with a predetermined number of automatic qualifiers (SEC: 4, BIG10: 4, BIG12: 2, ACC: 2). Each Power 4 conference ends up with one play-in automatic qualifier, and each of those teams gets to host a play-in game, with the hosting conference keeping the revenue. 4 at-large play-in teams are selected by a committee, with one being for the Group of 6. Committee seeds play-in match-ups and play-off field after play-in games Key benefits: Group of 6 team gets booted during play in weekend. If we are the team that gets to play these guys we probably can do it with our backups and reduce injury risk. We at worst end up in a play in game playing weak ass ACC, BIG12, or lower tier BIG10 team to get into 16 team field. The play-in games remove the argument of conference bias by sending the weak conference teams home with on-the-field results. The system replaces the conference championship game revenue, as those games will become irrelevant.
  17. Tell me something I did not know, maybe I should have said it as follows: Based on the bullshit from the committee ND should not take the risk of Miami jumping them and Miami should assure themselves of a spot by beating ND again. It is the only way that a 13th game would benefit anyone by taking it out of the committees hands. P.S. Even us if there is a major injury to the winning team😉
  18. Only two that should play this mythical 13th game are Miami and Notre Dame. There is no guarantee for Notre Dame that a side by side Miami would not get put ahead of them and Miami has nothing to lose.
  19. Someone else said it best but it is worth repeating when we were revealed to be #13
  20. Miami is a huge Texas Tech and Alabama fan this weekend.
  21. One question how many here want Texas to make the play-offs because they think Texas has a great chance of winning it all or do you want they to make the play-offs just to piss off aggy and the rest of the country or do you want them to make the play offs because the players earned it. Full disclosure I want them to make because players beat three top 15 teams and earned it since Sark screwed them with his game plan at Florida. Second aggy tears would be great for Christmas. Winning it all would only happen if somehow this team became disciplined and consistent which they have not done all year.
