The sec has no business talking down on anyone’s strength of schedule until they start playing 9 conference games. Uga and Tenn both play 2-8 ooc games this week where they’re favored by 40+, A&M played NM st last week, 2-8 favored by 40+. Bama played fucking Mercer on Saturday. Oregon and Penn state would much rather be playing Mercer or Umass in November instead of Wisconsin & Minnesota. 2 loss sec teams practically getting a week off in November instead of playing Vandy, Arky, Kentucky, or LSU.

Those guys are morons. They’re talking about who you’d kick out to let army in if they win out beating notre dame and they conclude that you can’t kick out any of those teams for army. You’d kick out fucking notre dame because they’d have two losses to army and northern Illinois.

So by their measure the only thing that matters is your best win and bad losses mean nothing. Even number of losses means nothing. Ole Miss and Tenn just getting shuffled right into the 7 & 10 spot without any discussion of their warts. Ole Miss has the win over uga, but they have 2 bad losses. And they have to be punished for that ooc schedule. Tenn has the win over bama, but got blasted by uga, lost to arky, got taken to OT by UF, was in a 1 score game late in the 4th with UK. Of all the bubble teams, the worst losses are ole miss to uk, bama to vandy, and tenn to ark. Plus they all have a second loss. But those guys don’t have any of them on the bubble, say that IU and psu both need to worry more than any of those teams with only 1 loss, that’s a “better” loss than any of those teams with 2 losses. UT is out despite not having a bad loss. Just because those 3 teams beat uga, who has looked really flawed at times. I just can’t see how Texas drops from 3 to 13 with a second loss, behind all of those other 2 loss teams, unless it’s a really ugly loss.

Is that sos to this point or total? Bama played Mercer this week and uga plays umass next week.

Is the sense that ole miss and bama would both get in over Texas with a loss to A&M based solely on their wins over uga? Because I just don’t see Texas’s resume being the worst of those 3. Ole Miss has two bad losses and the LSU loss looks worse every week. And they should absolutely be punished for that non conference schedule. And Texas has wins over Kentucky and Vandy who provided 2 of the bama & ole miss losses.

The sec sets the schedule up specifically to maximize ranked teams at the end of the season. Playing 8 conference games instead of 9 makes the whole league look marginally better in comparison to a conference that has 8 more losses. And they replace those conference games with absolute dog shit in November. Sec games in November: Maine UMass NM St Louisiana-Monroe Murray St Mercer UMass again UTEP Wofford Loisiana Tech That some of you have bought into the idea that the sec cannibalises itself with its brutal conference schedule is laughable bullshit. Ole Miss lost to LSU and Kentucky, and they played a ooc schedule of Furman, middle Tennessee, wake, and Georgia southern. Ole Miss, A&M, SC, LSU, Missouri, could all have easily dropped an extra conference game and made the league as a whole look worse. Hell the winner (and loser) of this uga-tenn game get a pillow soft game next week. Tenn gets utep and uga plays umass. Instead of getting another conference game to follow up this game. There’s no clear cut top tier in the sec this year so for some of you the takeaway is “oh that must mean that everyone is awesome”. s-e-c s-e-c s-e-c

I’m not sure how anyone thought they were going to see a great fight out of a 60 year old. Jake should feel embarrassed that he boxed an old man.

The only reason 95% of the people watching this is because it’s Mike Tyson.

So there’s a real chance Mike dies in the ring tonight, right? Trotting a 60 year old man out into a boxing ring seems beyond ridiculous.

Damn, I had the last 6 rounds of that fight without interruption. Back to nothing

Is everyone involved in this a complete fucking clown from the tech guys to the camera operators?

The biggest Trump maga guy I know just said to me that there’s no reason to not do the background checks. If there’s a process, the process should be followed. But I got him before he’s had Fox News spin put on it and why it’s actually super important that they don’t have background checks. I’m sure his opinion will be changed by next week.

Punished for scheduling Furman, wake forest, middle Tennessee, ga southern I guess.

Without seeing any of the game yet, and knowing the history of these two teams, this had such a high probability of sarcasm. I’ll give you the Oregon unis. These are definitely the best of all the absurd shit they’ve put out. And I’ll give you half a point for Maryland. If they had just gone with red instead of the tritone metallic nonsense they’d be there.

Just came here to say that Miami is going to back door this on some bullshit, and I see that everyone else agrees.

There are two houses in my area that drew my attention. One was in a massive sign war with his Trumper neighbor in 2020. Nothing this year. The other was a guy that had a couple Biden signs in his yard next door to a Trump house until Biden dropped out. Never replaced them for Harris. My precinct moved 2% towards Harris from 2020, but clearly enough of this state felt the same way as these two people that almost every county shifted a couple points to the right and flipped the state. And it looks like those reasons are several and play out differently in different parts of the state. Inflation, immigration, racism, misogyny, disinformation. Im sure the shift in central Philly, suburban Pittsburgh, Latino Allentown, and rural central PA all saw it a little differently, but they all shifted right a little bit.

That’s the beauty of creating false tragedies on the horizon. When they don’t happen, it’s because you stopped it.

Their demographic collapse will have something to say about that. But it also forces their hand to make drastic moves sooner rather than later.

Dana lay off the fucking coke man.

We’re seriously going to bring up Dechambeau? What the fuck?

And the Dems will rip their candidates apart with purity tests then whoever’s candidate doesn’t get the nomination will sit out the general.

Very little of my concern about his presidency is about him personally. It’s about him not giving fuck about what the ghouls he’s told to put in power around him do while he goes golfing.

That’s the whole crux of the maga movement: fuck you, I got mine. It’s not about creating a nation for everyone. It’s about grabbing as much as you can before it falls apart.

I didn’t think it was a setup initially, but in the week after he interviewed Trump I came to that conclusion too

Jesus Christ. And you guys think your state is going to turn blue? Rural PA is pretty racist and I have no doubt you’d get shouted down, if not punched in the face, if you were yelling the n word at a Penn state game. In hundreds of games there I’ve never heard it once. But god dammit if this election result doesn’t make it seem more likely. The constant normalization of hate is part of the feedback loop that got us here.
