re: CFB Playoff expansion to 16 teams gaining steam quick
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 5/11/25 at 3:19 pm
I like this. The SEC going to 9 games and a scheduling agreement with the big ten would mean they could schedule a SEC team getting a big ten team at home "in place" of a SEC game when it has 4 SEC home games. A nice way to balance out a 9 game schedule. The big ten could do the same thing.
If you are a season ticket holder you absolutely do not want at most 2 buy a win games as part of the home schedule. I'd rather see LSU play Illinois or Michigan State instead of Nicholls or Western Illinois.

The USC/ND contract runs out in 2027 and hasn't been renewed yet, so the timing in that regard is interesting
ND has has had breaks in its rivalries with Michigan State, Purdue, and Michigan. There was about a 40 year stretch where ND played USC, MSU, and Purdue every year if not longer.
USC has the most wins against ND with 38, MSU is second with 29, Purdue has 26 and Michigan has 25.

Kinda surprising.
What MSU needs is a billionaire alum who instead of buying a sports team just buys players for MSU. Can you imagine if Gilbert or Ishbia went that route?
re: The problem is Deion not Shedur
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 4/25/25 at 10:01 am
He played in the NFL. I doubt Deion would be like the Balls' dad. Deion knows that in the NFL parents are out of the way. There is no way Deion would do that to his son.
The problem is that his son is not a first-round draft pick even in a year with a weak quarterback class.

re: I didn't realize the UFL ratings were down 33% compared to last year. When will it fold?
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 4/24/25 at 3:25 pm
I was under the impression that the UFL is like one of those bowl games that no one attends, but makes money because it is on tv like the Bahamas Bowl or Frisco Bowl. That the money from advertisers and subscriptions to ESPN and streaming services justify the league's existence.

Yeah, being only a college has hurt Boston College, Dartmouth College, and Smith College

re: Deion calls out Colorado for waiting too long to honor Bill McCartney
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 4/21/25 at 9:34 pm
The standard on having a statue of you should be really high especially in regards to sports. Do any of us really believe that Bill McCartney and Nick Saban deserve to have statues? I get people wanting statues devoted to Buddha and Jesus, but Nick Saban and Bill McCartney?
re: ESPN should start covering college baseball. Period.
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 4/11/25 at 10:30 am
In my opinion, college baseball gets the amount of coverage it deserves. They show it on ESPN2, ESPNU, the SEC Network and so on. It gets more coverage on ESPN than college hockey. With the BTN and changes in college hockey all ESPN really shows now is the NCAA men's' tournament and the frozen four.
Plus, baseball fans as a whole are different from NBA or NFL fans. We watch other MLB games when our team is not on. We don't watch AAA or college baseball whereas NBA and NFL fans are likely to watch college versions.

re: Nick Saban will be inducted into Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 4/9/25 at 9:59 pm
He doesn't have to go the induction ceremony. Unless they pay his full travel costs and an appearance fee what is his motivation in going? He's not responsible for bringing in revenue to the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame.
He should be paid an appearance fee. Why in the hell should he show up?

re: College all star team vs MLB team
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 4/7/25 at 2:53 pm
College baseball is not on par with AA. Not in the least. College baseball is par with short-season class A leagues like the old New York Penn league. An advanced A and Florida State League low class A would demolish a college all-star team.
Against a major league team it would be like 45-0.

No one really roots for Auburn basketball. Not even their fans.
re: Everyone is rooting for an all SEC Final Four!
Posted by Ralph_Wiggum on 3/29/25 at 8:19 pm
There's no way I'm rooting for the school of Bear Bryant, Nick Saban, and Wimp Sanderson.
I'm an LSU fan and I see no advantage in the other SEC schools winning the national championship. It's like a Michigan fan rooting for Ohio State in the final four.
