That is sad
I sleep with my hand on my wife's butt or holding a boob.

I do not understand the different room concept :)
There is more to football than a chance of a NC.

It is entertaining to have these extra SEC matchups.

Rumors are Arch to Ole Miss next year


Oh please no. We are too good for Big 12 rejects.
It reminds us LSU is overrated.

Nothing but love for you Tigers :cheers:

I assume you mean NFL, since he is far from a SEC bust.

If it helps, he has already earned more money now, than you will in your entire life.

Injuries and being worn down physically put the sec at a disadvantage against teams that play soft schedules and get to rest starters in 4th quarters all year


That argument can go both ways. Soft schedules, create soft players. There is a lot to be said about a player that has been punched in the mouth a few times and gets back up.

Somehow we've played over 130 years without letting 24 teams enter the participation trophy invitational and CFB was just fine.


And most of the "crowned" national champs are complete bullshite. There is a reason every other sport on the planet has proper playoffs to crown their champ. CFB needed to catch up.

We need a 4 (maybe 6 max) team playoff, then teams like this won't get in.


SEC could get left out this year in that scenario. People put way too much emphasis on a perfect record. Baseball and Basketball prove this.

Thank you Norway for starting a new alter, to come spew the same stuff you have been doing for the past 2 years.

Once again, it is always suspect to hit the money board with a brand new account.

Why we need 24 team playoffs

Posted by DarthRebel on 10/22/26 at 2:57 pm
Because of this crap



The SEC plays a hard schedule, the rest of the conference do not. 24 teams maximizes SEC teams getting in and will probably return SEC to perpetual National Champs. Steel sharpens steel, and SEC teams will be stronger against teams playing their powder puff schedules. There is a reason ND loses every year in the playoffs.

We will not know until Iran tries to pump at 100% again.

Stock I have had for 10 months, but took a beating today off some good Q3 numbers.

Claude breakdown
TTMI down ~27% on a beat-and-raise quarter. What they do, what happened, and the upside math

What TTM actually does

TTM Technologies is one of the world's largest makers of printed circuit boards (PCBs). These are the multi-layer boards that every piece of electronics is built on. They also make RF/microwave components and assemblies and full mission systems for aerospace and defense. Their factories are in North America and Asia, and their customers are in data center/networking, aerospace and defense, medical/industrial, and automotive.

The AI angle: AI servers and networking gear need very complex, high-layer-count boards, and TTM builds them. Their Data Center & Networking segment grew 115% year over year this quarter. They also have a $2.0B aerospace and defense backlog, which is steadier business that isn't tied to AI.

The Q3 numbers (this was not a bad quarter)

-Revenue $1.20B, up 60% YoY, above their own guidance of $1.10–1.14B
-Adjusted EPS $1.46, above the top of guidance ($1.21–1.27) and ~16% above consensus
-Adjusted EBITDA margin above 20% for the first time
-Book-to-bill of 2.13, meaning orders came in at more than twice the rate of shipments
-Q4 guide: $1.42–1.44B revenue, $1.77–1.83 EPS
-Preliminary 2027 revenue outlook reportedly $6.5–6.75B, versus 2026 consensus around $4.4B

So why the crash?

Honestly, nobody has a confirmed answer yet. My best read:

-The Q4 guide was in line, not a blowout. Coming off a string of big beats, "in line" disappointed people.
-The stock had run hard. It was up ~48% YTD and around $102 going in. A lot of good news was already in the price.
-They're buying a lot of companies. Swiss Technology Group and Epiq Solutions are done. A $650M all-cash deal for Ophir Optics is pending, plus deals for ILFA and Merlin Circuit. That raises questions about how much of the 2027 growth is organic and how much is bought, and about debt and integration risk.
-Spending to add capacity. Free cash flow margin was only ~6% even with strong operating cash flow. The market sometimes punishes heavy capex.

Valuation after the drop (~$74)

2026 EPS consensus ~$4.82 ? ~15x
2027 EPS consensus ~$7.86 ? ~9.4x forward
Analysts expect ~63% EPS growth in 2027

Under 10x forward earnings for a company growing EPS 60%+ is cheap, if the 2027 numbers hold.
