The Athletic Scoops Sark interested in NFL Jobs
It's the perfect time of year...somewhere far away from here. I could walk, but I'll just drive. It's colder than it looks outside.

CFB Week Twelve Preview: Dawg Walking
From the standpoint of not embarrassing the ACC, Miami might be the best bet anyway.

CFB Week Twelve Preview: Dawg Walking
AAC will get one and there's not much left past them. Mountain West doesn't really have any candidate, hard to see JMU or UConn going ahead of the ACC champ.

2025 Week 12: Texas @ Georgia
Should've won this year's game too. We had an 82% postgame win expectancy.

Maybe. I remember this same discussion on the week/game thread. True, but they also are in a way.

Not all books had us favored at close.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
The coach who is mentioned first for every vacancy hasn't even made the playoffs.

Vegas had OU, sharps had us, dunno how public went. It's at least a game we weren't the clear favorites in. Vanderbilt was actually another one that split as Vegas and sharps had us, but the public money went on Vanderbilt.

Depends on the book and when you placed your bet, I suppose.

Technically, OU this year.

We really shouldn't have given up that big catch to OSU. Offensive woes and all, we outplayed them that game.

That would be out of Georgia's element. They run to set up numbers for screen passes. Don't dropback a whole lot, I think they are last in the SEC in air-yards.

Three-legged Willie was a Texas Ranger but he was from Milledgeville, GA. Hard to say who has the advantage.

aggy has wins over better teams on the whole. I'm disagreeing with Mandel myopicly saying that UI>Oregon vs aggy>ND means Indiana has a better resume.

This. If UGA can't run, this is going to go bad for them quick.

Aggy has the better resume in pure W-L. Indiana was looking unstoppable until last week, while aggy looks pretty stoppable. I'd go IU -> tOSU -> aggy, but there's arguments for whichever way. I don't think the CFP changes what they have without a pretty compelling reason.

Gen Z also actually owns homes at a higher rate than Gen X or Millennials did at the same age. They took advantage of a deflated covid market and they are also inheriting homes at a much larger tick (presumably left by boomer grandparents).

I meet these people in real life. If it's a troll, it is extremely accurate.

Alabama has a worse loss and didn't play #1. We should be ranked right next to them if this were true.

There' still some OOC and bowl games left, but the SEC is on schedule for the best year for a conference since the Big 8 in the 80s. I think some of it has to do with NIL evening the field (in the SEC at least) but also all the P4 "minor" teams lost their covid super-seniors (except Pavia) and have holes unfilled from the covid fallout.

I assume the deal has a 20-year buyout horizon because that's the ask for the GOR.

Yeah, but this actually got an entire crew of officials fired already.

Penn State makes triple the money as Purdue on "other stuff." The distributions are a sizable chunk but shouldn't be most of your revenue.
