What a treat to watch for basketball fans. Epic games, great players, and incredible EFFORT, particularly on defense. Give me that basketball all day long

Congrats Gators, must be nice ... sigh

Suck it Auburn,

So much of the show is an 11/10. I really like it. Season 1 as a whole is really compelling.

The story development in Season 2 hits a wall and trips and falls but eventually gets back up to season 1 level. They have a fine line to thread between holding back and giving reveals. I felt annoyed at times, just going in circles. The writers seem pretty scared to screw it up. So I get them playing it very slow, but it does make it exhausting to watch at times

The Show works best because of the chemistry and strength between the 4 workers working together. When they split them up it gets much weaker as a whole.

Binged it today, home sick

It started strong then just sucked big time ...

Getting away from the good guy bad guy chase was a dumb 'move, didn't care about all the other characters except the established ones. the forced trans thing was so fricking dumb it distracted from the flow of the show, it's like someone nonstop toxic farting your face while trying to eat an amazing meal at nice steakhouse.

Disappointed, still will watch to see how it ends, but the show went waaaaay down for me.
Whiplash is mesmerizing ... one of the best small scale character films of the last 20 years. Performances are fire, direction / editing is just fantastic
Louisianan here ... yes it's not great. It could be sooooooo much better, but the leadership is always egoistic and moronic

Looking to leave in the next 3-5 years myself

Remember seeing this in high school with a bunch of friends, and all of us laughing so freaking hard at Ryan Reynolds opening in the fat suit lip syncing "I Swear", whole movie is great.

Geeze to think that was 20 years ago, time does fly.

Well They only signed 9 of the Top 50 players in the state. For school with deep pockets, that's pretty bad.

If I were Texas I would NEVER leave the state to recruit unless the was massive mutual interest

I think 9/15 is pretty good for Louisiana

Although I am suspect of our evals in recent years, but we have a better coaching staff right now.

Texas only signed 6 of the Top 15

And only 1 of the Top 7

With all their money. Recruiting is more cutthroat and insane than ever. Be thankful for what you get, then figure it out.

Predictability in this sport has gone out the window

Color me jaded but hot-take incoming,

I thought the leads were SO OVERRATED. I think maybe it was the politics / actress themselves bleeding through, they both felt disingenuous. Even though the voices are absolutely top notch, I was still searching to connect to them, there was something hollow / flat about it. When the Broadway gals cameo the energy instantly went to another level and the magnetism was immediate. Makes you see why the stage show took off.

But Absolutely Phenomenal "Set Design, Costumes, Cinematography". Quite an achievement for a "fantasy" movie musical. CGI enhanced it, didn't make it feel plastic. Felt very alive. Could have trimmed the fat, and made it 25-30 minutes shorter.

Love the new CFB Overtime ... except

We need stop numbering OT after the 2nd one Just call it Final/2OT(6).

Its not really overtime. More like penalty kick shootout in soccer.

I also wouldn't mind 3RD old rules overtime before the sudden death
Ole Miss and State have large

In short

We're fricked long term unless rules get put in place
