The vast majority of the field in the basketball and baseball tournaments also have zero chance at winning it all and we still love it. Call it a 16 team playoff with a play-in round if it makes you feel better. In my setup the CCGs go away and the 9-24 seeds play the first week of December. You then have a field of 16. The play in losers can then still play in the Snoop Dogg and Boise Bowls. I’d have no auto bids, just straight seeding 1-24. G5 teams only make the 16 team field it if they finish in the top 24 and win their play-in game. Would be equally and possibly more profitable than CCGs. And schools get more money from these games being at home venues instead of feeding NFL owners with more money from parking and concessions. The more I think about it the more it makes sense. If Petitis 24 team proposal still has auto bids and allocations by conference he can fuck off. Straight rankings and seeding 1-24 after the end of the regular seasons. Conferences award trophies by regular season records and if desired tiebreakers.
It’s not that he’d “rather lose,” like Stephen said, they’ll do a self evaluation of their performance, and decide that they did a great job and that there was some other factor that caused the season to go wrong. They’re still the best option to turn this thing around. If they fired themselves as GM they’d obviously lose way more games. That’s a how narcissists think.
MetLife has a transit option which Arlington does not. It’s absurd and another reason to despise Jerry Jones. It’s also why I’m still pissed the Rangers built out there instead of downtown Dallas. With 80+ home games the stadium should be far more accessible.
You’re saying the same thing. He wants to win but it has to be in a way in which he gets all the credit. And it’s a huge middle finger to the fans because we don’t give a single shit about his ego and who would get credit. He would get to hold the trophy either way and he can claim credit anyway so his brain on this is seriously fucked..
Yeah I think it’s weird Utah forced him out for a HCIW if he still wanted to coach. I figured he just wanted to end on a high note so coached this season year to recover from last season which wasn’t good. He did that so I figured it was retirement. Just a weird situation. He’ll help Michigan get passed this stuff.
And there it is, the reason for 80 million americans to say "meh" and "witchhunt" and find a trans girl swimming somewhere. Anyone who thinks this changes a single thing is delusional.
Yeah I thought all the schools voted on the format. I’m pretty sure ESPN made clear that there’s more money giving ND a path. They draw ratings maybe even more so now from haters Dallas Cowboys style.
Their independence came off of several years in the MWC and the norm for G5 was 2 for 1 deals. Those games were probably scheduled while BYU was still in the MWC. Either way that’s likely why it was 2 for 1. Odd that the first two were in South Bend instead of 1-1-1, just asking for shenanigans.
Haha I haven’t been paying attention. I knew Indy signed Old Man Rivers but didn’t know he played last week and will start tonight. That’s fucking nuts lol. I genuinely hope he doesn’t get hurt.
Who are you speaking at with this take? Cowboys fans don't give a single shit about regular season stats and as far as I can recall only Emmitt ever won league MVP. Jerry wins revenue and valuation every year which is another thing we don't give a shit about. We all fucking hate Jerry Jones. We all know he's not a serious owner or GM. I would trade him for Hunt or literally any other owner in the league.
Then say that instead of "we won't play because the committee might "punish" us if we lose." BYU was literally just told that one loss is too many and yet agreed to play ND. It's just a really pathetic statement. Or just say nothing at all. "We could not make it work and will reconsider in the future." Anything but "we're afraid to lose."
