Understandable ...
[quote]That's because TAMU-LSU is the nation's best rivalry. [/quote] I was happy to see that EA called it a rivalry game. ...
I agree with BCS being the line. Crowing one true champion is what lead to the death of bowls, the massive inflation of media contracts (instead of focusing on attendance or sponsorship), ...
[quote]ESPN doesn't see the value in adding FSU and Clemson for them (since they already own FSU and Clemson's games through their ACC deal).[/quote] I think its beyond "not seeing value." FSU is locked in legally, as the GOR for the ACC is based on the Big 12 GOR that all of the Texas and OU...
[quote]this is a business and no FSU doesn't add anything solid to the SEC.[/quote] I mean they obviously do, but the media companies are driving realignment not conferences. If ESPN won't pony up any extra for FSU then the SEC won't expand. If there is any truth to this report its regarding ...
[quote] The media was saying UW and Oregon wouldn’t be added by the Big 10 as well.[/quote] They weren't going to, but the PAC collapsed and Fox didn't want those programs to rot or maybe go to the ACC. UW and Oregon didn't put themselves in that position, the B1G did. FSU is different. They ...
[quote]If Fox or ESPN aren’t interested in paying the B1G or SEC more for those schools, why would they be interested in paying the Big 12 more?[/quote] First of all they aren't on the same team, Fox and ESPN keep going back and forth trying to one-up each other. From Fox's point of view why ...

[quote]It was fine until the government got involved. [/quote] They got involved because schools making billions while players got a scholarship and cost-of-living couldn't fly in court anymore. What really fricked up college football was TV money and college presidents putting the short term...
[quote]This is the wrong direction for college football. [/quote] Its college football's fault. They stuck their head in the sand in regards to paying players for years and now judges sympathetic to the players are behind the driver's wheel. ...
How do you even cheat in modern football?...
I am amazed that Freeze got another big SEC job after that....
I have no sources but I would quit college football if this shite went down...
[quote]Leaving for A&M is no different than to Arkansas. A&M is no higher prestige than Arkansas.[/quote] Maybe 20 years ago [quote]Arkansas has a winning record over you.[/quote] Was much larger 20 years ago too...
[quote]A&M wanted more TV dollars and separation from its big brother(s) and since you couldn't win the Big 12 anyway, it just made sense.[/quote] Texas and OU fan logic was that since we couldn’t win in the Big 12 we would get demolished in the SEC. We haven’t killed it but I think we did pre...
His last two seasons there his teams got 10 and 9 wins, and ended the season ranked both years. I am glad it worked out for yall, but make no mistake if Kirby would have failed the narrative would have been "UGA deserved it for pushing out a 9 win coach." ...
Even if it doesn't work out for A&M its a good feeling that we have control of our destiny. ...
