  1. Sure, this year would suck. But in general it would be nice.
  2. Yep. 8 teams would be great.
  3. Really glad I don't live in Texas anymore. Because it would be insufferable shortly.
  4. Sure, I only think it makes sense if you get USC and UCLA plus perhaps two more - say UA and ASU. I guess maybe if you get UW and UO too that makes sense but even harder to make happen (USC and UCLA leaving SU and UC plus UO leaving OSU and UW leaving WSU).
  5. I'm a Baylor fan, and I think Tech fits that scenario better. That said, the PAC is struggling. Big XII teams earn more. Big XII raiding some PAC teams makes more sense than the reverse nowadays. But if the playoff ever expands to 8 the status quo may make the most sense.
  6. We're not arguing the same thing. The point I was making is independent of yours, that generally, bigger leagues with fewer conference games creates a situation where it is easier to keep more teams more highly ranked, artificially inflating the conference prestige in a positive feedback loop, because those artificially inflated rankings mean bigger boosts (for winners) and lesser drops (for losers) when those teams actually do meet. I'm not arguing the Big XII has equal average talent as the SEC. I'm saying whatever the relative talent levels, some leagues have a system that artificially pumps them up even more.
  7. The only counterargument I'd make is that the B1G and especially the SEC and ACC DO benefit from having more members because with 14 teams playing 8 conference games, you automatically lower the number of losses each team will necessarily take. Low to middle tier teams load up on cupcakes and get artificially inflated in the polls, and the intra-conference scheduling allows several top teams to skip each other at the same time. The result is its way easier for multiple teams to maintain a high ranking late into the year than in the Big XII. No, it doesn't say anything about the actual quality of the teams, but from a lazy perception standpoint, it looks like other conferences have more ranked teams and more teams ranked higher.
  8. He is just astoundingly moronic. I remember poking fun at W some and mother of god if ol' George isn't an elite mother fucking academic compared to this orange dipshit. I mean it's an order of magnitude difference in intelligence.
  9. Daaaaaayum
  10. Bravo. I immediately thought of this
  11. Well played sir
  12. 1. I'm glad she survived. 2. I hope she's getting help. 3. But holy shit IF you were going to commit suicide, offering yourself up to a gang of fucking polar bears?! Goddamn. Respect.
  13. There's a reason I post here more often than the Baylor board, and the Cal/ Berkeley board is too disinterested in football. The Colorado board is fucking awesome though.
  14. Don't apply logic, that's where their arguments break down.
  15. Where's the SEC flag?
  16. Cloak Room is the most depressing place on the internet
  17. I don't struggle with it, I embrace it.
  18. Only the best people
  19. Wants to make Daddy Trump happy.
  20. Like an obese T rex that tilts forward to counterbalance its heavy tail, so the Donald must tilt forward to counterbalance his heavy (full) diaper.
