I think it would only be worth it if they took some of their FCS rivals with them. NDST, SDST, Montana, and Montana St all moving up would turn the MWC into a mini North Western Sunbelt.
The conditions were horrible. I doubt it would of made a difference.

As a die-hard Steelers fan I can say with great certainty that this was the worst possible hire.


It's not the worst coach to hire ,but Mike McCarthy doesn't really satisfy anybody.

If you tired of Mike Tomlin, why the frick would you hire a similar coach that's late in their career. You might as well just keep Mike Tomlin at that point.

2 teams might be generous. The Acc and Big 12 have surpassed the Sec


The ACC will always be crap at football. The only thing that might change is the SEC might get 4 spots instead of 5 spots.

Oregon is overdue for a national championship. I think they win the rematch against Indiana.

The Bills now fall to the 7 Seed, right?


The NFL Playoff Machine has the Bills as the 6th seed if the Broncos beat the Chargers next week.

If The Chargers win, the Bills are the 7th seed and the Patriots are the 1st seed.

Chill out with the MVP performance talk on Maye today. He played a team whose defense hasn't intercepted a pass all year. He should have this kind of game against the Jets every time he plays them this year.


The MVP is either Drake Maye or Matthew Stafford. Stafford will probably win it, but Drake Maye has less to work with.

Is it time to upgrade my Video Card? I got screwed the last time I wanted to upgrade by Bitcoin miner and the AI buying craze seems worst.

I'm worried anything that uses DRAM is about the skyrocket in price.
Does that mean JMU is going to the Playoffs ?

If the games continues at this pace, it’s Vandy or Texas now. The SEC will lose their minds if 5 teams don’t get in. It’s a 5 team SEC minimum.


If Bama continues to get cub stomped, Miami might have a small chance to sneak in.

Most like scenarios

1) Bama moves down a single spot. 95%
2) Bama moves down 2 spots and Miami sneaks in. 5%

Why didn't they go for it? They are already down 20 points anyway.
I know the Raider are Trash ,but they are making the Cleveland Defense look like All-Pros. This should be a Cripple Fight ,but apparently These 2 win teams aren't built the same.

FCS football isn't the same with so many FCS powerhouses moving up to FBS.

RIP Southern FCS football

Make this thread in like 4 more weeks

The only conference who has fared batter than the SEC so far is the ACC.

Overall, only 25% of the original 64 teams are left. The SEC has 30% of their teams left. The ACC has been the winner so far with 5 teams.

Here is break down by conference of who is left.

ACC: 5
SEC: 4
Big 12: 2
Big 10: 1
Sun Belt: 1
Pac 12: 1
Ohio Valley: 1
AAC: 1

As well as the ACC has fared, one of their national seeds and their regular season champion were both eliminated.


I think the SEC underachieved relative to their overall baseball resources.



Its the same regarding budget as well.



Note: The budgets are from 2022 and are out of date. Certain SEC teams like Tennessee and Texas are spending much more now.

Tennessee-13,419,669 Texas-11,534,440 LSU-9,989,478 Arkansas-9,159,809 Ole Miss-9,124,735 Florida-6,831,221 Alabama-6,689,112 Mississippi State-6,564,901

Extra Point Article with some updated numbers

I think SEC fans as a whole should expect 6 teams in the super regional every year. If you had blame someone, it would be Texas and Vandy. They both had very winnable regional compared to landmines Ole Miss and Georgia regional.

Seriously, I feel like Clemson is trying to lose this game. They have 5 errors in this game.

Mizzou....

Texas and Oklahoma might have more baseball tournament wins in 1 season. :yack:

How do you see that with them only being 16-14 in the SEC?

I fully believe that FSU Clemson and Oregon get top 8 seeds


The SEC got 7 out of the top 8 seats in softball ,so it entirely possible the SEC gets the same in baseball.

Holy Crap the SEC gets 7 of the top 8 seeds!


Absolutely disgusting, but the SEC deserved it.

SEC Softball has more than half colleges taking the sport seriously.

I think this is going to be the norm going forward. :bow:

Gratz on the wins.

Sec Softball is untouchable at this point. I wouldn't be surprised if all the super regionals this year are on SEC turf.
