  1. "Cougars and Beavers for your late night viewing pleasure" - this man knew what he was doing
  2. The super huge spiky numbers, helmet with lots of garnet and black stickers, and garnet and gold collar and accessories all kind of muddy it up in practice. Not a natural look for FSU.
  3. UVA looks great tonight, especially against FSU's over-designed stormtrooper alternates.
  4. Fuck that was distracted texting not trying to come up with a fun new nickname ( @SydneyCarton you of all people should understand)
  5. I'm alive! Time to rest, relax, and enjoy the most momentous weekend of the season since Week One. I did not have much time to watch the games last weekend so this week's edition will be especially vibes-based. Thursday Army @ East Carolina (-2.5) (7:30/6:30 ESPN): A do or die game for contention in the ferocious AAC. Army lost a shootout in Denton. ECU hung tough but fell to two P5s and needs a positive charge to start the conference slate. Should be a good one! Friday #8 Florida State (-7) @ Virginia (7/6 ESPN): A top ten team on the road on a Friday! The Noles should stomp the Wahoos, but at least the home fans get to hang out in Charlottesville. #24 TCU @ Arizona State (-2.5) (9/8 Fox): Another ranked team on the road as two major contenders in the Conference of Parity face off in the desert. Dykes vs. Dillingham is a fun coaching battle. Houston (-9) @ Oregon State (10:30/9:30 ESPN): Just go to sleep guys. Sad what's happened to the Beavs and West Coast Cougs. Saturday Early #21 USC @ #23 Illinois (12/11 Fox): Oooooh boy does this feel like a trap for USC, who had to do the clopen shifts - ending Week Four with a late night win over Sparty and waking up bright and early Pacific time for this one. #22 Notre Dame (-5) @ Arkansas (12/11 ABC): What a fucking cripple fight. How is ND ranked? Louisville (-3) @ Pitt (12/11 ESPN2): I don't know. It's a thin early slate. Mid-Afternoon #4 LSU (-1) @ #13 Ole Miss (3:30/2:30 ABC): Garrett Nussmeier vs. .....Trinidad Chambliss? The Ferris State transfer took over from Austin Simmons after his injury and has maintained his starting role even with Simmons back. A huge test in Oxford for the Bayou Bengals. #1 Ohio State (-10) @ Washington (3:30/2:30 CBS): UDub comes in on a wave of confidence after eviscerating the Little Sisters of the Poor, but talk about a stern test for them and for Julian Sayin in one of college football's most stunning settings. Auburn @ #9 Texas A&M (-4.5) (3:30/2:30 ESPN): Come on Hugh Freeze, do something really funny here. #11 Indiana (-4) @ Iowa (3:30/2:30 Peacock): Another game with T-R-A-P written all over it. Too bad it's on fucking Peacock. Primetime #17 Alabama @ #5 Georgia (-3) (7:30/6:30 ABC): It's Bama at Georgia, what more do you want? #6 Oregon @ #3 Penn State (-3) (7:30/6:30 NBC): White Out conditions in Happy Valley. The Ducks against the Pedos. James Franklin against an equally talented team. The only option is to pull for Oregon. Kentucky @ South Carolina (-7) (7:45/6:45 SECN): Remember top ten South Carolina? The pollsters don't! Now they're battling Kentucky for bottomfeeder relevance. Woof. RIP Pac-12 After Dark #25 BYU (-6) @ Colorado (10:15/9:15 ESPN): The c0.0%gs (workshopping it) are making a sneaky run at the Big 12 title, and are coming off a very professional away win in Greenville. Deion's close loss to GaTech looks better and better, but getting rocked by UH doesn't Happy bye week, y'all!
  6. It was shocking at the time, which is what matters in this context
  7. You see that logo and color scheme has fun and character. Therefore it is out of brand guidelines for the NFL.
  8. That's kind of worked for Miami with Cristobal. But they have legit NIL.
  9. I'm so happy we're moving to a closed super league system, who wants all these fun upsets anyway? (Also, look out BYU)
  10. ...do you not like college football? A fun ranked vs ranked game on each slot plus interesting secondary games all over.
  11. Man, even the band's off script this year
  12. ECU football games are a blast (I have never seen a drunker student body, and I've been to a lot of college football games), and their admin is really hyping this one up as a big nationally televised showcase, so they want to turn Dowdy-Ficklen into a cauldron. The red No Quarter flags coming out in the fourth quarter is an awesome tradition. Two teams I like and have lots of connections to, so I'm happy either way!
  13. Don't know what team this looks like, but it ain't Michigan (to be fair, I've always thought Michigan's actual uniforms are kind of mid, and carried in the popular imagination by their cool helmets)
  14. I'm happy to inform you that Oktoberfest in Munich is almost entirely a September event: https://www.oktoberfest.de/en It's held the 16 days before the first Sunday in October.
  15. The the scenic banks of the James River in Virginia... FIGHT!!!
  16. Buffalo deciding on a late blackout meant the Troy graphics guy had to make a quick update on the pants
