[quote]Shake the hand of an Alabama fan. Congratulate them for supporting a team that is and always has been better than your team.[/quote]
I will congratulate fans after their team beats my team as a sign of respect for their team.
But nobody deserves congratulations for simply supporting a t...

If you are counting on that you will be very disappointed. We aren’t destroying our recruiting pipelines like NU did with their move to the Big 10.
All of that talent in the DFW area is still just an hour...

Next time this happens the coaches will blatantly lie about the severity of the injury. I would do it even if it were obvious just to make a point.
Given now that we are expanding to 12 it won’t be as critical....

[quote] Frankly, it's the same type of attitude that prevented Alabama from claiming its rightful 3-Peat in '66.[/quote]
Was that before or after you won a title, lost the bowl game, and the wire service changed their procedure to make sure it doesn’t happen again?
And was it before or after y...
re: This is why there will ultimately be a 32 team playoff.
Posted by ChapelHillSooner on 12/3/23 at 12:50 pm
Also, for those who say 32 teams, that is five games. That is extending the season by almost 50%. That is not doable for many reasons. Risk of injury is the biggest.
It works for FCS because only a few of those guys are looking at an NFL career and presumably the lower competitions means less ...

Posted by ChapelHillSooner on 12/3/23 at 12:44 pm
I think they are already going to have a problem with veteran players who are looking at an NFL career choosing to play four additional games. We are going to see more and more top line players sit out and it would only get worse the larger the field is.
I do not like the idea of 12 teams. I mu...

[quote]UGA will be full of excuses when they lose
#1 excuse - refs[/quote]
No, this is the SEC. Their #1 excuse is they didn't want to be there.
At least that is what Bama, Auburn, and Florida told us.
That said I don't see any way FSU wins against Georgia....
re: FSU got the 2004 Auburn treatment
Posted by ChapelHillSooner on 12/3/23 at 12:13 pm
USC would have boat raced that Auburn team.
Also, FSU has a bigger argument. There were 3 undefeated P5 teams in 2004 and two available spots. There are 3 undefeated P5 teams and four available spots this year....

[quote]Ole Miss has two top 10 losses. Where is KU ranked?[/quote]
That KU game was an anomaly. It was a 38 degree driving rain and Lebby completely went into a shell. We also had bad turnovers some caused directly by the conditions.
I am not excusing that loss. We lost because we deserved ...
