Was it tipped? Or did dude just flat out shank it?
This is just a fricking terrible team
Not a catch but bama will get the call
Hey 44 you realize you are down 10 with 5.5 minutes left? Sit down and stop celebrating a sack like that you clown
What? A bama holding no call after they get bailed out on a dropped 3rd down ball.

Ronald Dupree came back to get his EE degree so he could get into coaching after the NBA. He was on my senior design project at lsu and was a very nice down to earth guy.

One of the closest I ever had was at Kiva Dunes.

Was on my spring break in college with a bunch of friends. Someone decided to book Kiva Dunes and was only able to get the first tee time in the morning. We were staying near Floribama so the drive was about 40 minutes. We were up after a long night before the sun even came up to go play a round of golf.

It was hands down the worst round I have ever played. Was tired and hung over as ever. Probably on track for a mid to upper 90s. I get to number 17, don't remember the number, probably a mid iron. I hit the most beautiful baby fade that was tracking right at the pin. By far the best shot of the day, pure clubface. It was tracking so well that it hit the pin right above the cup and ricocheted left into the water. It just epitomized the entire round of golf for me. I wanted to throw my clubs in the water.

Is the end zone curved behind the goalpost?

Got my son a set of Flynn’s at 6. They can customize grips and shaft color and you can upgrade shafts as he gets taller.

He loves them.

Temple 5-7 K-State 6-6 actually bowl eligible but who cares. Baylor 5-7 Rutgers 5-7 Kansas 5-7 UCF 5-7 Auburn 5-7 Could use the practice FL St 5-7 Could use the practice


Practice or not.

I thought you had to NOT have a losing record to get a bowl game. Is there really that many games now?

#5 & #9 will both be retired


“Retire” the jersey but keep the number.

Both of their jerseys should be on the wall next to Cannon, Casinova, Stovall, and Alexander.

But at this rate my grandkids will be watching a number 50+ playing a skill position.
If it is below 50 I would rather walk.

Haven't played below freezing, but that is mostly because I have other things going on those months and don't get to play much.

First game I have watched this season.

Should I turn it back off?

But you said only teams that win their conference can win the natty. 9 of those teams wouldnt have won their conference


Yea you have to win your championship game to continue onto the natty.

18 teams would have that opportunity at the end of the regular season.

That doesn't make sense. 7-5 Duke is playing for the ACC title. If they pull off the upset and win the ACC title, why do they automatically deserve a home playoff game instead of a 12-1 G5 champ?



Good for them. LSU won the SEC in 2001 with 3 SEC losses.

Would make for a heck of a game if Duke upsets Virginia.

If conferences want more that 2 teams in the playoffs then make your conference championship a tournament to get into it.
quote:

9 conference winners equal 18 teams


9 conferences. 2 teams per conference in their championship game.
The size of the tournament will be fought about until there are 64 teams in it and the regular season is shortened and doesn't even matter. Make winning your conference a requirement for winning a national championship. That makes the entire regular season something to play for.

All 9 Conferences get 1 team (Pac 12 and Independent don't get in-go find a real conference to play in). That means the "tournament" starts with 18 teams.

Take the two smallest G5 conference champions and make them play against each other to make it to the "elite 8".

From there P4 champions vs G5 champions play at the P4 schools.

For the final 4 you can play at the bowl locations (Rose Bowl, Cotton, Sugar, etc.) or high seed home field.

This also allows teams to play better opponents outside of the conference throughout the season for better games.
