marty something. think he came up through espn's nascar coverage.

I actually enjoy his commentary. Think you’ll find most of his detractors here frequent the CR, guess it has something to do with his origins.

Anyway here’s an article https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/1879122/2020/06/19/that-is-who-he-is-spiked-hair-the-suits-that-accent-its-all-marty-smith/

Tennessee goes into half with the closest halftime margin of the CFP.

buckee college is up 21-10 and the ESPNers claim the buckees are "dominating."

Yet Texas was up 28-10 at halftime, and Texas is holding on by its fingernails according to the coverage, "the cryin' dabos are coming back, they're coming back!" FFS

You know, it just occurred to me that Tennessee is a lot closer to Ohio than you think it is.  Between Ohio and Tennessee, you only have Kentucky.  Tennessee is closer to Ohio than is Illinois.

i just think that’s crazy.

 

and yes—I’m high.

Damn... we are at a no lose position now... either  OSU blows it and we can see the backlash against Day or Tenn loses and we have one less SEC SEC SEC dick rider to deal with during the playoffs

Personally I would like to see fOSU and end Days season this year then get him fired their very next game on 8/30.  We could possibly take out half a dozen coaches next season if we play it right.

I looked it up. It’s less than a 6 hours drive from Knoxville to Columbus Ohio.

I’m all for Texas dominating the SEC but pass on this rah rah allegiance to this conference. 

Remember when a Big XII team missed a playoff because of perception.

Look, pulling for your conference team mates to do well against other conferences in the CFP is simple self preservation. Having any positive bias in media view is a bonus. There is a shit ton of subjectivity in the CFP process. Do you remember all the fans here yelling about how we should be #5... and we were. Well, it sure as shit doesn't if we played in the Big XII. Just ask Iowa State.

Actively hoping your conference loses is self sabotage. It hurts Texas in the long run when SEC teams lose in bowls and the CFP. 4 ACC teams made it in. That's due to a goofy media bias. I'm not preaching go full SECSECSEC. Just, ya know, pull for things that are good for Texas long term.

That this reality is lost on Texas fans after being in the Big XII is flat out amazing. Particularly when it lands them pulling for OSU. Ohio fucking State University.

That is flat out regarded.
