We are 3-10 bc shitty Rattler was 1-7

In this particular case that's probably for the best

The worst thing this team could have done this year is go 8-9 again. While I agree with everybody else they aren't going to deliberately tank to get the 1-2 spot, we still don't need to be back at 18-20 with the other 10 .500 teams.

2 XP would have been a tie

Nice job Raheem

Is there not an independent NFL physician responsible?

That was the whole Daboll incident, was it not? The "independent neurologist" pulled Dart from the game for testing and Daboll lost his shite and ran into the tent

Either the guy yesterday was cold and not paying attention, or he decided Tee didn't need an exam. Either way that's probably his last time on the sidelines in an NFL game

There are tens of thousands of people playing HS and D3 football with no prospect of ever making a dime for their efforts. They play anyway.

Because HS and D3 has not been transformed into a mini version of the NFL with paid players driving the decision process

The Pro Bowl went away because highly paid professionals decided it was no longer in their best interest to go play a "meaningless" exhibition game

D1 CFB players are slowly coming to the same conclusion

and there may be another win coming before the season ends.

The bottom of the league is atrocious this year.

The only way to guarantee a top 3 pick would be to forfeit the rest of the games.
What time of day does the mail come for all the tippers in this thread? My mail is in my box when I get home from work, I have no idea who he/she is that actually does the delivery

However you can’t kick them out and expect conferences to keep title games.

If they would have won they would have the AQ and absolutely moved up in the final rankings

If a team can reap the benefits of winning a conf champ game, they should have to accept the consequences of losing one. Otherwise opt out and stay at 10-2

This is where the Frank Wilson not being a on the field coach gets interesting. How would that work?

It probably wouldn’t. I’m sure Frank wouldn’t be as effective if he can’t go in home and walk the halls of the Catholic League schools.
A playoffs rematch of a 35 point regular season beat down

Sounds awesome
The only time we got skipped was Pot 4, correct? If we got Croatia in Pot 2, we still get Paraguay in Pot 3 and I believe we would have gotten Curacao in 4?
I don’t understand creating a show aimed at the casual or uniformed viewer when the only people watching a draw at noon Friday are the people who know how it works
That might be an issue with CR, supposedly Durkin almost exclusively runs zone and CR definitely wants to have his guys in man way more than not

Charles Huff would be an awesome hire for Tulane

If his QB didn't get hurt late season, he could have turned a 1 win USM team to the Sun Belt championship game in 1 year with 8-9 wins.

asked that LSU keep it quiet so that he could have his moment.

Somebody should have told Jimmy Ott, he announced that to the world on talk radio this afternoon
quote:

Also noted that the Brown family and Karr community were pretty shook about the uncertainty of Frank

I'm curious if any other D1 schools have essentially a HS coaching mafia that holds kids from one of the top talent cities hostage unless the school has a coach or staff member that they deem worthy

Does this happen to the Florida schools? Does the Miami area all require the big 3 to have a handler on staff?
quote:

He’s preferred the transfer portal instead of HS recruiting since he’s been there.

Problem with that is in his last postgame, he bemoaned the fact that CU can't keep pace with the money being spent, and warned that he wouldn't be able to keep up in the portal this year

Add that to the fact he refuses to go out and do in home visits, and often isn't on campus with HS recruits come to Boulder, it seems like this experiment will be coming to an end shortly

Until the SEC knows how many are going to the playoffs, they won't be able to start assigning teams to bowls
2 questions

1) Why exactly is the RB Coach with the NOLA connections crucial to the OL/DL from Erwinville committing?
2) Assuming #1 is correct, how has LSU allowed one if it's assistant coaches to basically become a "handler" for multiple recruits and control the outcome?
