  1. It would be nice. I wouldn’t care if Nickelodeon airs half the games. That was at least entertaining. ESPN/ABC are not neutral commentators (constantly pimping certain teams before and during and after games) nor are they neutral money givers for tv contracts. Not saying Fox is neutral nor CBS nor NBC loving NotreDame but ESPN is directly responsible for all the realignment stuff and they damn well know it. Fuck ‘em. I happened to enjoy Nick’s fun stuff 🤷🏻‍♀️ better than listening to the commentators suck off certain teams like they will be fired if they don’t. 🎅🏻 🌲 🎄

    I am just laughing at the folks interacting with his X account. I highly doubt he is the one posting.

    Lots of fuckery. Perfect place for guys like Lane. They have seen behind the curtain. They know how shit works. Plus he is an asshole and a liar. 🤥 always has been. He is a liar and an asshole sober. Not sober. It’s his default mode. He can navigate this kind of bullshit because he knows a lot of this shit is corrupt as he is. He doesn’t care. This is all a plan imo by Lane to eventually slide into the open Bama slot in a few years and DeBoer goes somewhere else. LSU is just a placeholder for Lane. And they view everyone as temporary anyway.

  5. That’s why it would have been interesting if the teams on the bubble that had coaches out there politicking had banded together and presented a proposal for the committee to consider, hey we will play each other for a chance to play into the dance, they’d have to address it. At the very least. Even if they said no. We could offer to host two games this weekend at Texas for the play in teams, we will sell tickets at like $10-20 bucks, whatever the fuck help fans with hotels and what not. They have enough cameras as they routinely have so many damn games every weekend. A network would cover it, winning. Telling the committee they are busted and wrong may make changes for next year but it doesn’t help the bubble teams this year. Forcing a proposal like that down their throats at least addresses the committee absurdity and gives the bubble teams a chance were they all in agreement to “we will play each other to have a shot to play into the playoffs.” Committee likely says no but at least you can get all the sports stations and writers to discuss the proposal as opposed to coaches fighting a losing battle to politick to get in. There was one year I thought Bama had 3 losses and the committee said no. It’s rare but it does happen.
  6. The committee looks bad but this year is a lost year for the teams on the bubble that didn’t get in. We will never get that back. Every year there are two or three teams playing some damn good football that don’t get in. Lost year. Everyone sees the absurdity. But it doesn’t help the teams who don’t get in. Fucking committee.
  7. It’s absurd and every time they trot someone out there to explain it. “Bama played a tough game at Auburn (uh what).” We get this crap as an explanation. By Sunday morning the teams that know they are on the bubble aren’t likely to get in (W/L or SOS or head to head or none of the rivalry games fell the way that was needed.) not saying those teams would do this but I’m a chick I think this way: band together. Make one statement. Say the field should be expanded to 16. The teams on the bubble have their coaches out there in one statement saying they would be willing to play a buy in. Air it that morning. We are willing to play each other for a shot at the dance. While everyone is playing CCG games. Get it out to Fox Sports and ESPN so they can talk it up. I guess it’s better than seeing what we do each year. It’s a moment without hope. Coaches going out there explaining how absurd it is but they don’t get in. Force their hand. It never helps for the current year. Vandy won’t have another Pavia. Lost year. We are playing our peak football. Lost year, Miami fucking best ND head to head and it doesn’t matter. Miami still has to root for teams to win to still get in. Offer to play a game in their home stadium. I realize what I wrote is absurd but so is explanation from the committee and there is no oversight. Force their hand and say hey fuckers do you want a badass CFP or not? We are willing to play each other to get in. listening to committee head talk about this shit is worse. And it’s oh well here’s a bowl game. Nah. Flip the script on them I guess until it’s 16 games with some rules that aren’t fucking subjective to this degree.
  8. I was speaking from the perspective of if you are explaining you are losing kind of thing. Has anyone successfully politicked to get in? In all the years of the playoffs has there been a team perceived to be on the bubble who made it in bc of the politicking?
  9. Also…it is not necessary to send HC’s out to politick for a spot in the playoffs. The committee doesn’t care. I highly doubt they even heard one sentence any of the HCs said.

    Yes they are! 👀 Life in the Fat Lane!!!! Lying on being run off the road too. Fucker cannot stop lying. ESPN is desperate to control the narrative and it’s spinning out of their control. I’m here for it. Fucking POS he is.

    The comments underneath man 😮

    Good stuff. Never stop being a lying POS Lane. Never stop. When Karma catches up with him it will be spectacular.
  13. we could have had a Texas V Notre Dame play in to get in and a Vandy v Miami play in. I’d have been cool with this. Rather than the word salad from the head of the committee. Does Booger know btw we played Vandy this year? And beat them? Does he know this??
  14. Twitter has suggestions: Or we could do this: Or this: I guess if I am Vandy I am pissed OU is getting sucked off by the committee. That’s about it. We should put the above suggestions in a computer and see what AI can come up with I guess.
  15. But bama did not have three losses.
  16. Revenge tours never work. FSU’s didn’t. And Nebraska’s catapulted them into irrelevance
  17. Especially since the tv networks get rewarded for it and the loser gets a box of shit. 💩
  18. I don’t know why he said that. maybe he got AD approval to say that? Or did he wing it? The committee was unimpressed? If he was winging it imo it is bad look. You have to back it up if you are going to say that as your big pitch for why we should get in. I guess? 🤷🏻‍♀️
  19. Something. It’s not every day you see blow U, Tech and Aggy in the expanded playoffs it’s got to piss them off. At least Aggy is forced to play an actual opponent.
  20. This is the only decent outcome of tonite. They have to play a real fucking team.
  21. This is correct. I think they go to 16 teams. It’s already built in with that bye week for the P4. It’s a shame bc the teams left out are playing the best football right now. Should have been 16 from the jump once they decided to expand it.
  22. Everyone just getting their feels out. When we got into the playoffs the past two years the same posters were openly laughing at the ones who didn’t get in and making logical arguments for why those teams didn’t deserve it. Now that we didn’t get in because of our three losses they only want to play easy randos and drop our OOC schedule. I am sure aggy is enjoying our meltdown. I am hoping it lights a fire under our administration and BMDs that Tech, OU and Aggy are all getting in. And we are going to the citrus bowl. Caldwell should starts!!!
  23. Me too! We like ourselves. We know what’s what. The thread doesn’t need anymore derailing. Thanks for the comments ✊ maybe they should have a play in? Like prove you are worthy to be in the playoffs play in. For those of us left out of the CCG but on the bubble. Maybe they should do that shit.
  24. I actually think two bubble teams getting a play in might be interesting.
