re: Golden or Oates to UNC or KU?
Posted by Lizardgrad89 on 3/24/26 at 9:25 pm to SingleMalt1973
Not sure who would want to go to a school with a fan base that thinks titles are the norm and hasn't come to the realization that everybody is paying kids now so they don't have all those "advantages" like they used to. Yes, you get paid lots of money, but lots of jobs pay lots of money, so anybody already at a top school would be foolish to make that move. A lower-tier coach would be happy to make 5-10 times as much though.
Not even going to get into how they will want you to surpass Duke, like, yesterday. Nevermind, I just did.

Kentucky. Third game in 3 days, and not much of a bench. No legs in the 2nd half.

I have a similar problem. I've failed my birthday exam the past two years and had to retake the same age.

I expect a Texas win over Florida tonight, with complaints about the refs. Standard practice in the SEC, the conference works to get in as many teams as possible, so a team that has basically clinched going on the road to a bubble team is almost guaranteed a loss (except Kentucky of course). This is not a Texas thing or a Florida thing, but it is an SEC thing, and has been going on since the 80's.

That's nice. UF won 2 Men's Basketball titles and 2 Football titles from 2006-2008.
re: 16 Team Playoff Inc
Posted by Lizardgrad89 on 1/2/26 at 8:43 pm to AggieDub14
16 teams means the first round is 8 games. Tough to do when the NFL owns the weekends. Also tough to do 4 games in a day, unless you have games on against each other. But if you don't do 4 games a day, then you can't do the whole thing in 2 days. If you have a 3-3-2 schedule over 3 days, then you have either play games during the day while most people are at work, or you have games play at the same time. You might think you can do it during Christmas and New Years, but sometimes they happen on the weekends, what then? The NFL isn't going to drop off the weekends to be nice to CFB. I just don't see how it can be done with more than 4 games in a round.
But someone else said the second round should also be on home campuses, and that I fully agree with if the 12 team playoff is kept. Getting a top 4 seed should mean something, and it would certainly help with the issue of the top seeds losing all the time. But you can't do it with 16 teams, because it would mean the top 4 teams would get two home games, and what if they lost? Then somebody else has to host, and who can put together a football game in a week? It's a massive logistical undertaking. Just selling tickets alone is going to be insane. Or, the school that lost would have to host a game in which their own team wasn't participating. What a disaster that would be. So only the first round games can be home games in a 16 team playoff.

It's amazing that after years of mediocrity on the basketball court we caught lightning in a bottle and clawed our way to a title through sheer grit and determination.
But it's even more amazing the number of fans who now seem to think titles are our birthright and anything less than 30 wins a year means you are a garbage team...

re: How many more teams have to opt out before we get a bowl bid?
Posted by Lizardgrad89 on 12/8/25 at 9:39 pm to Lt. Columbo
Why in the world would you want a bowl game? Three weeks of pointless practice with a coach who would only be here because of the bowl game, players who don't care? Last time we did that the interim only practiced them about twice a week and we got shellacked by Central Florida. You want to be 4-9 that badly?
re: HBC: “FSU got some issues”
Posted by Lizardgrad89 on 12/7/25 at 8:54 pm to theCAW
He's not wrong.
But I do feel like FSU mailed it in against us. I mean, if they won they are 6-6 and would get three more weeks of practice plus likely the Fenway Bowl, who wants to play a bowl game in Mass? This way they get to go home for Christmas break. Yes, it's the rivalry game, but it's not like they could have even pissed in our cornflakes, our cornflakes were already quite yellow and soggy. I could see getting an effort if they could have at least kept us out of the playoffs, but keeping us from getting to 4-8?

On the bright side, at least now we won't have the debacle of yet another pointless bowl game with an interim coaching staff, where the coaches and players don't care and we end up being embarrassed by some other crappy team that actually showed up.

How about Golesh at USF? Younger guy, has had decent results, supposed to be a good recruiter. I think with the speed at which the game is changing, having someone who is still young enough to adapt would be a good thing.

Actually, if you don't count interims, it's basically 5 years. Unlike Georgia, which is...basically 5 years.

Kiffin hates us, has since his UT days. Really don't want to hire any more coaches that hate us. Will Muschamp and Dan Mullen were enough, no need to shoot for the trifecta.

You know, we could easily be 1-6 right now. We had three of our games won before Billy decided to Napier his way to a loss. We won two of them anyway despite him. Defense bailed him out twice, only fell down against USF. He let Texas back into the game, he let MSU back into the game. He let USF back into the game.
I held out hope for far too long. Far far far too long. But when I saw him take the timeout against Texas to save the 10 second runoff when we were trying to run out the clock, that was the final straw.

The playbook is what it is. Can't change it now. But maybe some unpredictability? That would be nice.
