They were both massively overrated, but I was just looking at top 25 matchups. And A&M was favored in that game.

The most recent playoff had 2 current big ten teams beat 2 current sec teams. Both of those team were gutted by turnover since then so it’s not applicable to this year but the SEC being the best by quit a bit is pretty laughable. The SEC has had 4 real tests this season and they’re 2-2 in them. UGA over Clemson and Texas over UM today were both strong statements but probably more indictments of the current state of Clemson and UM. LSU and A&M both shit the bed in grand fashion. but more to my point, 2 weeks into the new conference and you’re already millimeters away from tiger droppings levels of conference pumping.

They got them on the way in I assume. They were banging on them when CU had the ball.

Yinz guys will be chanting SEC in no time.

looooooooool

And of course they get some extra time. ND gets more breaks in every facet that no other team gets.

They shouldn’t have a chance for the miracle play. That kick should have happened as time expired.

A&M took everything out of ND. Beat em up so bad they still haven’t recovered. /texags

Its fox. Psu - osu and psu - um have been noon regardless of location the last few years. Last time a combo of those 3 teams played outside of the noon slot was 3 years ago when ABC had Psu @ osu. Psu @ wisc, ore @ osu. All should have been night games. But Fox is happy to move the marquee game to noon for a few extra ratings points.

FOX puts their biggest game of the day at noon, have for years. Something about it being the most watched time slot. it’s fully regarded.

What a fucking dumbass. lol

Watching the nfl game last night at one point I had 2 consecutive commercial breaks that were each 3 consecutive ads that were anti bob casey and then anti Kamala.

While constantly stifling any speech he doesn’t like on twitter

I’ve seen a lot of anti bob Casey ads recently. Probably the second most common political ad I’ve seen for the last week or so. After anti Kamala ads.

The constant barrage of political advertising I see in PA says that both campaigns know this as well. Watching football is a beating. Every single commercial break has at least one political ad. The overwhelming message from the Trump campaign is that illegal immigrants are ruining everything, inflation is all Kamala’s fault, and she’s soft on crime. That’s it. That’s the extent of their message. Some form of that on repeat. Also sort of interesting to see that 1 campaign sends a mailer 2-3 times a week while the other campaign hasn’t sent me a single one. Edit to add that some portion of Trumps advertising also claims that he total has absolutely nothing to do with project 2025.

I don’t think this is all that surprising. Trump was giving up on everything other than PA and GA, while not expecting that NC was in play. in his calculus, he had to win PA and GA, thought that the rest of the blue wall was already lost, and that NV and AZ didn’t matter. Thats still the only path to victory for him. Win all 3 of NC, PA, and GA. Lose any of those and the election is lost for him. The polls show it that way too. He’s most likely already lost the rest of the blue wall and the western states don’t matter. Kamala has to try to win everything that’s in play outside of those 3 to make it so that unless Trump can win or cheat his way to all 3 of those, she wins.

They need to tune their model. There shouldn’t be any scenarios where Trump gets 532 or Harris gets 496.

My concern in PA with the switch from Biden to Kamala is that the latent racism and misogyny in a portion of the old white dems lowers turnout. There’s a house I drive by when I go get tacos for lunch that has had a Biden Harris sign for like 6-8 months. Since the house next door has blossomed into full maga regalia. Last time I drove by the Biden sign is gone with nothing replacing it. Obviously just a single observation that likely means absolutely nothing. But my fear is that PA doesn’t come through for Harris the way it did for Biden. It was clear that enthusiasm for both old men was way down across the board. I’m hopeful that there a lot of people that haven’t yet formed an opinion of Kamala. Hopefully they were watching last night. That first debate could absolutely sway the battleground states significantly. The Trump campaign knows that which is why they were trying hard to get a Fox News debate out in front. I fully expect him to host a town hall on Fox and then say “well since she didn’t come to the one on Fox, I’m not going to the abc one.” Im not sure how real any of my concerns with PA should be, vs just irrational fear.

Starting to see Harris Walz yard signs in my very purple PA suburb. there’s a handful of trump flags that are out year round, but not much in the way of new enthusiasm yet. In 2020 the two guys across the street from me had a slowly escalating Trump v Biden sign/flag battle. By November team Biden had flags hanging from the entire length of his 40’ deck. So far nothing from either side there.

Been pushing hard to lead into the trip with mid pines or pine needles (or both) plus Tobacco Road, but I’m meeting surprising resistance to playing 36 three days in a row.
