I'm really interested to see what happens to these lower level schools if/when a super conference happens. They'll get left behind because not even all of the current P4 will get selected - maybe a NFL number of 32ish out of the 60+ current teams. That means the leftover P4 scraps will scramble...

Two bye weeks only happen during certain calendar years. This upcoming 2026 season teams only have 1 bye and the season still starts on Labor Day and ends Thanksgiving weekend. The conference championship games delay the start of the playoffs in all of these instances

Really good points. And just to be clear, I would love them to finish 5-7 with an embarrassing loss in the last game because the players have quit and would rather not qualify for a bowl game.

I think that their schedule is easier than it's made out to be Oregon and Ohio State will be tough, but both at home. Washington has a good team and QB, but Fisch hasn't gotten them consistent enough to win big games yet, also at home. Penn State is in State College but their team got...

Personal favorite is Jimmy Lake, who fits this mold as well... As we saw from Chris Ash, any failures as a head coach does not change underlying position coach/coordinator abilities. Jimmy Lake's run as DB coach at Washington was legendary. Really the only coach comparable to Mickens and he did...

I went to the Fiesta Bowl and sat in the Ole Miss section. I had a great dude sitting next to me - totally into the game, respected football, nervous as hell. Everything I would do if it were my teams. I really wish the Rebs had pulled it off that night!

Excellent post, brother. The only way to explain it is that we're proud Notre Dame fans of the Judeo-Christian heritage in the Abrahamic religions tradition - it's in our Catholic nature to suffer, but the rewards will be there - eventually!

100%. CMF feels exactly the same way we as fans do and probably worse with how it all played out and how we got screwed. But he's great at internalizing it and moving past the emotions. We want to tell everyone to "F off," but everything happened 6 weeks ago - ND's screw job and declined bowl...

They still have 5 days to jump into the portal lol. Would be hilarious

That was the settlement offer for FSU and Clemson to drop their lawsuits to leave the ACC. Both teams end up sucking and get nothing. The rest of the conference gets screwed too for agreeing to do it.

I don't know any this picture peaks my curiosity. It just doesn't look right - and not just because of the block "G" with the Oregon uniform. Maybe it's the dark visor on the white background, combined with the awkward kneeling position with the even more awkward "O" hand sign. Just gives me...

Just saying that there are some qualities that are present across all sports while pointing out the emotional lability of wrestlers. I saw a coach who's athlete pinned a higher ranked wrestler in an upset and he didn't even celebrate with the kid - he just trash talked the other coach for some...

Brother, I'm also around wrestling coaches a lot. Most of them are basically overgrown children who have never learned any sort of emotional regulation. Many (not all) will basically act on every impulse during a match, from yelling at refs (typical of many sports), trash talking wrestlers, and...

Fravel is a random poster who steals stuff from premium sites The response to that post is a troll

I keep telling myself every day that someone visits on campus and there's no news: The rules are the player has to leave campus before signing so there is no appearance of coercion. So, maybe the kid left campus and will sign tomorrow - that's when the good news comes... Tomorrow! I keep...

I'm not usually someone to worry but this has been worrisome. It's like a few years ago with Bowden not scheduling official visits on the last weekend of June and ND lost a ton of recruits. It's a miscalculation and the only way to learn from it is the hard way, but I worry that it will be a...

LOVE that this is happening to USC. For those who don't know, he was considered a "shoo-in" the be the USC defensive coordinator. I didn't think he would join Lincoln Riley and the terrible egos there (Riley, Bowden). Don't love that ND plays his defense but very happy he's not at SC...

100% on the family but the original tweet from chuzz is a fake account run by an ASU fan.

No doubt... But if he's got any professional aspirations as mentioned above, that doesn't seem like the best way to reach it. Look at the numbers for NFL QBs - 15-20% of team cap is 50 - 60 million per year. That's generational money over 4-5 years. That should be his goal - get to that as best...
