  1. It must have been a hell of a yard.
  2. You'd at least want a VIP Connections newsletter every week...
  3. Having two locations, with the furthest east being Fort Worth is certainly a choice. Basically any team that is a top six seed in that projection except for UCLA and USC (who is listed as a five seed) is going to want to be in Fort Worth.
  4. I'm pretty sure the AAU changed the way they calculate R&D expenditures by removing most agricultural research because it is not competitively funded. This change led Nebraska to be kicked out, and Iowa State (and possibly Syracuse) to leave voluntarily before risking being kicked out.
  5. James Franklin has played 30 games against top 10 teams, and 25 of them have come as the head coach at Penn State. The original numbers BO&W did not include his 0-5 record while at Vanderbilt.
  6. Franklin is 4-26 against top 10 teams in his career.
  7. Boise State, Florida State, and South Carolina are moving to the Big 12.
  8. Good point. If we do not start to focus, we are in danger of losing the bye week.
  9. I mean, Pavia is only playing now because the NCAA lost (at least temporarily) an eligibility case involving the exact same question (i.e., whether the NCAA can prohibit players who played four years of football total in NCAA + junior college).
  10. It's an interesting choice. At this point, I think you have to consider what happens to the Virginia Tech job if/when FSU, Clemson, UNC, and UVA leave. Maybe there is enough time to build VaTech up high enough where they could be considered for the SEC/Big Ten, but if the ACC starts to fall apart in the next few years, that seems unlikely.

    A&M at ND

    Reminds me of this game: Notre Dame falls to 0-2.
  12. They let them punt instead of kick-off after a TD? What a weird thing to get wrong.
  13. They were opposed to schools having differing numbers of protected rivalries based on whether they have rivals in the Big 12, so they decided to give teams different numbers of protected rivalries based on whether they have another in-state team in the Big 12.
  14. On my morning flight from DC, the flight attendant announced: “Welcome all UT Longhorn fans and the one guy wearing an Ohio State jersey to our American Airlines flight to Columbus.” And then that guy started an O-H-I-O chant. The Columbus airport is selling Texas shirts and hats, so they’re expecting a decent contingent.
  15. Do schools not normally pay for student athlete's means "for the duration of their respective athletic seasons"? I remember when I was at UT back in the day there would sometimes be a line of athletes at chipotle and they would all order and then someone would pay the whole bill. Is this a benefit for the athletes or the schools?
  16. The same thing is true of Colorado, or do we think the Mountain States Conference is still going strong?
  17. This season we play OU, A&M, and UGA twice.
  18. It's hilarious, but it also matches how Bama itself claims titles, right? So I get it.
  19. Lol It feels like the Cubs learned a lesson from that contract and are committed to never overpaying again (and thus not really signing anyone of note).
  20. "valued at an astounding $25 million" Before realizing it was fake, I was wondering what on earth "valued at $25 million" could mean. Valued to whom? Texas is obviously not paying Cat Osterman $25 million to be an ambassador and I cannot imagine she has enough money to donate that kind of cash to the University.
  21. It will be the first DIRECTV Fan Zone activation of the season, whatever that means. https://www.directv.com/insider/college-sports-program/
  22. I think you mean 6th most or 2nd least overrated of the 7 True Blues.
  23. Interesting notes from the VaTech BOV meeting. I recommend reading the whole thread.
