Agree to agree.

I do think CCGs should have potential to drop a team in boundary cases. So I think PSU should have dropped below some 1 loss teams after losing to Oregon, but if Oregon lost, they would’ve clearly deserved the 5 seed. But after 12 games, SMU at 11-1 absolutely deserved to be above 3 loss...

Yeah, Bishop, I’ve always wanted exactly the opposite. I want the teams that have played the best season, not who “have the best team” but didn’t win consistently. I get that in college football, schedules aren’t equal (so as much as I’d like to, I won’t argue for Army to get in the playoffs...

No, because conference teams have to win their CCG or their round 1 game to reach the round of 8. That is not parity with going into conference championship weekend ranked #4 and going straight into an elimination game.

Pretty sure I remember ND getting 199 yards that don’t count in those stats. Those pick sixes didn’t help our TOP either.

So I guess now we can agree that Love and Price both getting carries can be part of the game plan.

Yeah, I read that article expecting to find that Iowa has a history of particularly nasty conduct. Turns out they’ve won lots of close games against Nebraska and celebrated. Somehow that justifies Nebraska being unsportsmanlike before the game.

Doesn’t Freeman get credit for identifying, recruiting, and hiring his stellar coaching staff? Golden, Denbrock, and many of our position coaches could work and get paid almost anywhere. They apparently want to work for Coach Freeman at ND.

You’ve got to watch more than his one game coming back from injury/illness. Daily actually reminds me a lot of Leonard, which for Army is an unmitigated very good thing. He’s very elusive and powerful on the run and can pass well enough to pick up big plays when needed, but not always consistent...

It’s also really $9M per year because there’s a guaranteed $1M bonus every year, making it $72M over 8 years. And IU committed to boosting the budget for assistants. The Hoosiers apparently think they have a coach who can make them a big boy in CFB, and they want in. He has no reason to want to...

This is kind of the opposite of the carousel, but looks like IU has Cignetti locked in pretty securely now. 10-0 Indiana gives Cignetti new 8-year contract

Many Many NFL and college coaches have assistants with a binder full of analytics for thousands of possible scenarios. It’s standard practice to ask what the book says. It’s not like he was asking for someone else to make the decision for him. He was almost certainly asking to confirm what the...

Sand Valley is a great experience! I played both courses a couple years ago. First tip is to wear sunscreen. There’s very little shade, and the back of my legs got pretty burned, which was unexpected. Greens fees and caddies are pretty expensive, but once you’re on the grounds, food, drink, etc...

A lot of guys who cashed those checks have love and respect for Toby Keith. He did 11 USO tours to Iraq and Afghanistan, and he showed up at some remote FOBs that no other entertainers went to and spent real time with the troops there. He never put on the uniform, but his active support for...

UGA should be out because it doesn’t matter anymore what they did when Stetson Bennett was their QB. Texas needs to be ranked over Bama because they’re both 1 loss major conference champs and UT has the head to head win. I hope UL wins, because I think it will be bad to leave out an undefeated...

For some reason, I still remember “Lock up Lockbaum” signs when I lived at West Point when Army played that team. As I recall, he played both O and D.

I think we want Duke to win this one, even though they would probably jump us for now. Especially with UNC losing, that gives us a chance to eventually jump the whole ACC. Duke beating the better teams they play and eventually dropping one to a mid level opponent would be ideal.

Gerad Parker's time under David Cutcliffe at Duke is helping him at Notre Dame. Good article about Parker’s Duke connections

D for Dawgs and L for Leaders is actually a serious answer from fightingirish26 above. Deion doesn’t do C’s for Captain.
