The B1G isn't much different than the SEC, less defense. They have Alabama and the next tier, A&M and Georgia. Ole Miss would beat Michigan imo.

---

Michigan is really poor this year.

I think some years the league is really deep when teams like Michigan State, Iowa, Northwestern Wisconsin, etc. are defensively dominant and tough to beat.

This year, even the higher-level programs in the conference (Michigan and Penn State) are massively disappointing. I say this as a huge Michigan fan: Michigan this year is much worse than their record. It's been a total disappointment of a season, so far.

Illinois is also not as good as expected, which doesn't help. And Maryland has fallen off after a hot start.

first blindside of the season.

---

Is it a blindside if it was obvious before the episode and even more obvious as soon as the tribes were split up, given the editing of the past two episodes?

I am definitely not as into the vote-out as Twitter and Reddit. I actually found Shannon to be a fun villain and was sort of rooting for her. Sage is a poor player and just a bizarre person.

And Kristina and Jawan...seriously? Honestly, Jeff too with the dramatics after the challenge. Maybe it's because I'm from south Louisiana, but I just can't believe it's THAT hot outside.

I would like to see some of these people who nonstop complain how hot it is handle summer sports practice in the Louisiana heat.

Predictable result again.. surprising again that Jason didn't play his shot in the dark.

---

Jason and MC took completely different approaches to getting into the as an alternate.

MC is playing hard and trying to make things happen. Whereas Jason just seemed like he was dazed, confused, just "happy to be there" while doing nothing outside of puzzles in the challenge and going out with a whimper.

Jason seems like a nice guy, but wow, outside of the puzzle challenges he was a weak, weak player.

This season, as a whole, has been disappointing. The editing is way too obvious that the players we need to care about are Kele Sophi, Savannah, and Rizo. Meanwhile, some players like Hina Sophie and Kristina might as well not be in the show.

Of course, most of the cast is not very interesting to watch/flat-out annoying. Jawan seems like a nice guy, but man, he's just annoying. Savannah is boring, yellow tribe as a whole is boring, Alex's sob story is that he usually orders door dash, too many "I was bullied!" storylines...what has happened to this show?

The problem is, if they win... one of their red teammates (probably Sage but who knows)

---

I think the edit is foreshadowing Sage turning the rest of the tribe against Shannon and blindsiding her in this next episode.

With that said, Sage is just way, way too weird for me. That whole blackhead stuff is disgusting.

How did Pavia look against LSU last year?

Pavia was injured for that game against LSU. From Kentucky onwards he was hurt last year.

I would have taken Zae getting a battle-back into the finale and beating Vince over a Vince win.

Cheating aside, the guy is an annoying loser. I didn't want to see him rewarded with getting to sit on his hands for the next 10 years because of a first-place finish.

At the end of the day, Big Brother is a social game and Vince's social game wasn't good enough.

I like fine dining, I don't like pretentious dining, if that makes sense?

I like, occasionally, going to a very nice restaurant and having extraordinary food that I don't usually eat.

What I don't like, however, is when a place is fancy just to be fancy, if that makes sense. Where it's pretentious, not to improve the quality of the food or the atmosphere, but to just seem more stuffy/pretentious.

It's one of those differences where, when you see it, you know.

I lived in a ground-floor apartment in Florida so, naturally, had a lot of roaches during my time there.

Bengal Gold Roach Spray (you can find it on Amazon) is the only thing that worked. If you spray it around your house/apartment, it will not only kill roaches when spraying them, but will also stop them from hatching. It did wonders for me because I think I had both the American and German cockroaches in that apartment.

They are greedy enough to try to get the 'haves' to break away from the 'have nots' if they didn't get want they want.

So ridiculous that this is what college football has come to. This isn't what college football is about. And I say that as a fan/alum of a school that will be just fine given it's a "big brand."

College football is about App State beating Michigan, Purdue beating Ohio State, Vanderbilt beating Alabama, Northwestern somehow making the Big 10 title game, etc.

I genuinely think more people remember Vanderbilt's upset over Alabama last year than who won the national championship.

They will be but shouldn’t be. It’s very possible their best win going into that game a is a below .500 South Carolina team

Some years, I could see where you're coming from. But there's really no dominant team this year and nobody really has that many "impressive wins."

Vanderbilt has had a more impressive start to the season than most teams and if they're 5-0, are you really saying there's 15(!!!) more deserving teams to put in front of them?
