  1. I really like the Milioti casting. It’s a meaty character and she should have plenty of screen time to shine.
  2. I guess if the Big Ten can claim DC and NYC’s TV sets with Maryland and Rutgers, the Big 12 can do the same with U of H. Even when the team has been really good, there hasn’t been much local attention. Ed Oliver was the last high profile recruit they landed. I just don’t see them as a good value add.
  3. Question for the thread, why is Memphis automatically included in every conference expansion conversation? Is Jimmy Sexton their agent? It’s not a large TV market in a pretty poor city. Moderately successful football and hoops programs. I just don’t get it. I guess Nevada and SJSU just need to hang around the basket until Cal and Stanford give the PAC a firm no.
  4. I could have sworn he called an afternoon game and an evening game on opposite ends of the country before.
  5. Maybe the problem is with their feed? I believe Herbstreit broadcasts remotely all the time on ESPN.
  6. Bud Elliott laughs at your facts. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/blue-chip-ratio-2024-these-16-college-football-teams-can-actually-win-the-national-championship/amp/
  7. Having worked a fair number of them, nobody does the poor me better than LSU fan. They have the most NFL players per capita in Louisiana without any in state recruiting competition. They won 2 national championships with functionally regarded head coaches. Sure Kelly sucks, but they can always hire somebody better. Things could be much worse, trust me.
  8. I predicted before the season they’d have almost every show in Columbus. I’m sad to see that I was right. Ohio State was -40 against Marshall. This should never happen again, but it will.
  9. Weigman’s best move is to get an independent evaluation and shut it down for the year. Then portal out/get paid again. Win-win. Weigman escapes College Station without much bad tape (excluding the mentalist soul stealing video), and aggy can claim he was a great QB but hurt all the time. He just ran out of training room hours.
  10. Big Noon Kickoff EP needs a dressing down. Ohio State shouldn’t host the show when they’re playing Marshall.
  11. Should have overpaid for Trent Williams back in the day.
  12. Allegedly, Mitchell fought a teammate. If true, I’ll drive to Austin to help pack his stuff up. Really disappointing. Texas waits out a possible medical issue with the kid and this is how he might have repaid them. Is Gardner hurt? Page had 10 carries Reid Watkins of all people had 4.
  13. I’m starting to think the IEA is controlled by oil and gas traders (duh).They need markets to move, so they press a button and IEA releases some peak oil bullshit press release. Meanwhile, the plebs suffer while oil traders are doing lines off of strippers’ asses on ChiTownDoc’s yacht in Miami. This latest bullshit put a dent in my bonus.
  14. Holy War Conference Championship Game should be good start to Championship Saturday. It’s been mostly quad screen, but I’ll admit to watching more Big 12 games than I expected. That probably won’t continue as the SEC finally enters widespread league play, but the Big 12 has done what ESPN/FOX wanted. Entertaining games on slow weeks. I feel bad for Ollie Gordon. Texas broke him. Just hasn’t been the same guy since the 2023 CCG. Should have gone pro and got paid to suck.
  15. MACtion should be fairly entertaining. Any combination of Bowling Green, Toledo, and NIU should be a good game.
  16. Thankful for an easy opener. Unthankful that MS State is so bad they stuck us on the SEC Network in the afternoon.
  17. Just stopping by to remind everyone, life comes at you fast.
  18. Well at least the national media will jump from the hype train now. I bet Bill Simmons does a 5 minute drive by and doesn’t talk about the Texans again until the playoffs.
  19. I like OU’s roster and 25 class quite a bit more than aggy. I’ll cautiously buy their defense. Agreed Tennessee took their foot off the pedal, but they also didn’t run it down their throats. Venables is probably a better coach than Elko. He stole signs like crazy, but Venables won 2 championships as a DC. Elko hasn’t won shit. I fully expect some Venables shenanigans in the Cotton Bowl. I could see Texas trailing in their first quarter before blowing them out.
  20. Exactly. The Arnold is better than Arch bullshit was a completely unsolicited argument that came from the bowels of the SoonerScoop ego chamber. Their mods wrote clickbaity articles, and within a few days their entire fanbase accepted it as Gospel. The last couple weeks must have been unpleasant for them.
  21. Jefferson is worth every penny the Vikings are paying him. My goodness.
  22. Big rodeo happy hour in a couple weeks. I wish it was after Georgia, but hey, aggys would talk shit regardless.
