Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?
On the ND /ACC thing… I get ND’s perspective. If it truly came down to head-to-head record, why wasn’t Miami ever ranked higher than ND in the CFP rankings? Ultimately, in my opinion it came down to $$$ and CFP saying they cannot leave a “P4” conference out. Simple as that. Miami is CFP doing ACC a ...

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?
Maybe FBS should embrace the FCS playoff model if bowls are going to continue to diminish. Go to 24 teams with each P4 getting their top two schools in, and each G6 getting their top team. The remaining slots go to the highest ranked teams not already in. This year it would result in 7 SEC, 4 B1G, ...

Re: Birmingham Bowl
I have to think the SBC also pushed us to accept. Not having an opponent for GS would have been a bad look. I hope we don't lose a ton of money on this. I mean isn’t there automatically a payout for playing in a bowl? Probably at least a million. If we get $1M then this was a no brainer! I know bow...

Re: FB at No. 24 JMU, 3:30 p.m., ESPN+
People need to calm down with firing the coaching staff after one season. It's reactionary and emotional. This season has been one to forget for sure, but how many times did we have to listen to tirades and defenses of this hiring (or about getting rid of Coach Clark) because of how bad the roster ...

Re: FB at No. 24 JMU, 3:30 p.m., ESPN+
I haven’t read all 30 pages of this thread and apologies if already been mentioned, but this ish really hit the fan when Cummings got hurt. Until then the O seemed to be serviceable, if not good despite VERY untimely turnovers. Only bringing up as to me I have always thought of TE as a critical weap...

Re: Roster/Staff Updates
Here’s the Devil’s advocate response to that. NIL and the Transfer Portal exist in Conway and Statesboro. Both of those teams treated the respective games as a rivalry, played chippy and one tried to plant a flag at midfield. The GaSo fans are not happy with Clay Helton, yet he can get his team off...

Re: Dowell Loggains SI Article
One aspect of the “pay the poor abused players” argument that kills me is that blanket assumption that schools have made “billions” off of these indentured servants. Zero of them has ever been forced to play a sport and I seriously doubt that outside of maybe 40 schools the rest have either operate...

Re: Sun Belt presidents to vote Monday on Louisiana Tech
Their Athletic budget is ~$2.5M more than ULM. I don’t get it. $560K in football ticket sales last fall.

Re: Staff Reductions Coming To ADs
When you talk about Irene I am curious how old is she? She might fund a sport now but when she dies will her children still do it? If you are depending on one person and the sport does not generate revenue through tickets, merchandise, TV revenue, etc then at some point that sport will be a drain u...

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
If bunting is not emphasized by the coaching staff then I can't get mad at the players for not executing. It's a fundamental/art that could and should be taught still. The coaching staff seems to be following the same trends as many others (analytics and power hitting - which seems to work for the ...

Re: ACC
If you moved sports to Hickory than the Boone campus would slowly die. As far as the streaming goes, I wish we would step that up as a program. It wouldn't be all that expensive all things considered to invest in some hi def 4k etc cameras in lots of places around the field and allowing the online ...
