    Brian Kelly to L$U

    getting paid $50M to sit at home because you did a poor job at work is such a boss move.
  15. those kids arent going hungry thats guaranteed
  16. It has a shot at TTU and Oregon. Its body of work and their body work says it would be the disfavored team, and that it does not deserve a shot. TTU has run roughshod over everyone, with 2 convincing ranked wins, and just 1 squeaker loss on the road. The season's results says it is closer to #1 than Texas is. So it would be a bigger travesty if , for example, TTU lands at #5 and is excluded from a 4-team playoff and a crack at the NCG than Texas landing at #13 and is excluded from its shot. I'm a Texas fan but have to be objective too. We're fighting for scraps here.
  17. This is conditional on 2 things that have not been true for half of the season, Arch playing Elite and the Defense playing elite. The defense allowed 38 by MissSt and for Arkansas to almost do what they wanted. We're also changing the original agreement: that qualification is based on the season's body of work. It's never been "what team is hottest" or "what team could win when playing at their best". Otherwise we'll have to allow Tennessee, Michigan, Utah, etc in the picture.
  18. There's a sort of re-framing fallacy that comes up often in sports discussion. None of this matters because Texas isn't winning the championship. The playoffs isn't the goal. The championship is. Arbitrarily cutting playoff qualification to #12 is required for matter of practicality. The historical and predictive chances of these late-entrants actually winning the championship is basically zero. All this scheduling and perceived strength (=ranking) handwringing is moot. It mattered in the BCS and 4-team era, where being #2 vs #5 means a tons. Being #12 vs #15 doesn't change shit. If Texas had scheduled a cupcake instead of OSU, but still lost to Florida and Georgia, while squeaking by Kentucky/MSU/Vanderbilt, it would meaningfully change the strength the team or its championship hopes. This hypothetical Texas team would lose to TTU/Ore in Round 1, and get assblasted by the T4 in the quarterfinals.

    wife and i decided we wanted to explore the landscape of flavors of rum flavors - our new favorite sips - through 2025 xmas “gifting”. basically a flimsy pretense to restock the liquor cabinet.
