I’d have to imagine BCS bowls, 10 win seasons, and being consistently relevant the in the 21st century in a Power5 conference.

All 3 don’t have the marque the others in tier 1 have but have consistently very relevant since 2000.

Did not see the fine print.

Kentucky has invested patience early with their coach and it has paid off. The coaching merry go round teams have not fared too well. Folks can say what they want about stoops, but he’s been steady. Nutt was steady, not great, with us but he had a respectable team but that wasn’t good enough for some folks and they ran him off. Don’t fall into that trap.


This is wisdom. I think it took Beamer 6-7 years of wandering through the desert before he made VT nationally relevant for 2 decades.

Imagine using the opinion of a bunch of nerds that never played a down to prop up your fading football team

I could be off a little, but I think iowa might have scored a total of 9 points in the past three seasons....most boring team I've ever seen take the field.

Nutt was a good coach but he did as much to get himself run off in his dealings with Malazahn and the fab three from Springdale, the texts to the TV girl, his relationship with the vagetarian who sent shitty messages to Mitch Mustain, the FOI requests, flippant statements about the fans ..... "Hey, I called that play brother" and the list goes on.

Even after he left he kept screwing with Arkansas fans. Once you start bantering with the fans, it's over.

And Iowa....Nobody outside of Iowa wants to watch Iowa excruciatingly try to move a football 10 yards in 3 downs. And many Iowa fans have had enough.

I wonder how this would look if they used the CFP rankings instead.

And they got to play in the B10 West.

Affordability is $90,000 for Auburn.

What is the difference between 1/8 or 1/32 of a tape measure?

Money.

Ring a Bell for Cows and Goats. But UGA and Alabama will starve in their own yard, while The Plains give you food for 50 years,


Did I just have a stroke or is this entire post gibberish? Y'all let me know if I need to call 911.
