re: Onside kick alternative

You hardly see any onside kicks be successful nowadays. 

Obviously, it isnt supposed to be easy to get the ball back after scoring.

I think there are cheaper options out there.

The 8 iron already in your bag can probably hit all the same shots as a separate chipper club.
Part of the conversation needs to center on avoiding blue states/cities at all costs. I'm not sure where these kids are originally from or what their political leanings are, but if you are white and find yourself in any kind of legal entanglement, you're almost always going to have a better chance in a red state.
Notice you didnt actually have any defense of the behavior being described in the original story, you're just offended he had the nerve to call it out.

you let the season play out

You should probably do the same, instead of coming here and embarrassing our fanbase.

They’ve been a powerhouse team for a long time before Saban

Sure and there's a difference between knowing a program won a bunch of games before you were born, and seeing it happen in real time with your own eyes like recruits saw Nick Saban do.

Its crazy there's even so much push back on the topic. The idea that Alabama had to rebuild after Nick Saban left is just flat out retarded. He left behind a perfectly fine program.
quote:

It's literally been like this for 100 years now at Alabama.

Alabama won 6 national titles in a 12 year span for the last 100 years?
quote:

 DeBoer had to completely rebuild the roster after 40+ players transferred out in his first season when Saban retired.

Ohio State had over 30 players transfer out after last season. The majority of players leaving places like Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, etc are players who ended up being over rated coming out of high school and needed to transfer to smaller programs. There was still plenty of talent left after Saban left. Number of transfers out doesnt tell the entire story.

And then you need to consider the massive advantage Nick Saban left when it comes to the reputation of Alabama's football program. Recruits for the next ten years will know Alabama is a program you can go to win national championships. Nick Saban didnt have that when he first got to Alabama. He had to build up recruiting from the ground up.

rebuilding

Yeah its tough when nick saban leaves you a cupboard full of top 3 recruiting classes.
quote:

I will forever say the reason Ryan Day got his NC is because of Chip Kelly.

Absolutely. The Ohio State offense has been slow and uncreative ever since he left. Which is insane because Urban originally brought Day in to modernize the offense but now Day is also completely lost on that side of the ball as well.
I remember when you guys used to brag about winning national championships. Just today there's been threads here where you're trying to brag about academics, tv ratings and now attendance. I really dont care about all the conference vs conference stuff, I'm a fan of a single team, but some of you guys just seem really insecure.
Ohio State's, Georgia's, Alabama's, etc backups could make a 24 team playoff. Regular season games are going to be completely irrelevant.

f I was drunk is the basis for DWI

A woman having sex while drunk or high is the only situation where being under the influence is a valid excuse to get off the hook. You do literally anything else while drunk and you're still legally responsible for your actions.

offer anything close to the economic future that America offers?

Thats a good point, greed and lust for money is exactly what went wrong with our country in the first place and got us where we are now.
Its always fun when one of the classic powerhouse teams makes a resurgence after a down period. It was even interesting when nick saban first got alabama back up and running. If nebraska ever got going again I think most neutral fans would pull for them also.
Ranking at the time the game was played is completely meaningless as more games are played.

A team could finish 6-6, but if they start 6-0 and crack the top 5, the first team that beats them gets credit for a top 5 win, while the last couple teams that beat them get an unranked win. So if we're comparing teams at the end, why would you give one team a top 5 win and another an unranked win when they both beat the same exact team?
If/when the league goes into a lockout after the world series, these rosters are all going to look completely different next time we see any of these teams play.

For those that downvoted a personal experience with these balls, please explain your argument.

A few of the guys who post here believe there is absolutely no difference in golf balls whatsoever and no one who isnt a touring pro could possibly tell the difference between a range ball and a pro v1 so any discussion on balls immediately sends them off the deep end.

Its not just sec fans. Ohio State has a pretty tough remaining schedule and only 1 more mulligan to play with. They arent close to a playoff lock yet.
