Not nearly the loss now Seattle Seahawk Kenneth Walker III was a few years ago. They recovered that.

Miami's arena has all the energy of a mausoleum. It's a tough place to win when they are good. This is the kind of outcome that makes potential MAC Tournament rematches interesting.and fun for fans.

Divide that by two one more time. If we need four , why can't we just pair up the champion of each P4 conference? BTW, was anyone able to watch all three hours of GameDay yesterday? I turned it on with an hour and a half to go and the dumbbells on the show were trying to guess the weight of dumbbells. I turned it off knowing the last 90 minutes were only going to get worse.

They need to get off to a fast start. Mark my words, the Wake Forest game is winnable.

ESPN tells us the CFP is the greatest thing ever. I have a question. If it's so great, how come there are so many empty seats at the Orange Bowl?

Good programs make consistently good hires.

I'd settle for a 7 win season and a trip to a bowl.

What if we didn't have any designations at all?

The coach at OU was in the wrong. It's not ok to have sex with a student. But then again, what if the student is 42 years old going part time?

Indeed. I don't put much stock in bowl games but I will say the MAC isn't as bad as some think. There isn't much difference between a mid level ACC school and a top level MAC program. If not for the financial need of suicidal schedules, most records would be much better.

Good. They pay down a third of their debt, students get renovated dorm rooms, University gets a reduction in maintenance costs and improved dorms contribute to a better student experience.

He'll be fine.

Exactly. The entertainment value of these games is horrible. Because coaches and players leave, and the players falling out of shape because of the gap between the end of the season and the first games, the football is just bad.Please raise your hand if you saw a well played college game. If anyone watched these games and felt quality football was being played, I have ocean front property in Arizona I'd like to sell you. It was terrible. NFL games between even average teams provides much better entertainment. The only people who say good things about it are the bobbleheads on ESPN. The NFL should look at the ineptitude of the powers that be in college athletics and run this nonsensical invitational tournament out of business by hogging up TV time on Saturdays in December. The NFL could easily run it out of business or at least drive the games to less desirable weekdays. Give it a catchy name like MACtion and watch it collapse.

Did anyone listen to the river of nonsense GameDay shoveled through the TV this morning in regards to the playoff and bowls? Naturally, the leading idea was to expand it to 16 teams even though an 8 team tournament is more than acceptable. If the NFL only has a 25 team playoff, 8 is enough for college. College football isn't competitive enough to expand it. I know that's shocking coming from a company that would benefit from the expansion. Dumbest idea that seems to be gaining traction is playing the bowl games before the season starts. I go to Florida a lot throughout the year for work. It is a completely undesirable climate in August. I listen to these buffoons talk on GameDay amd it's starting to make me hate college football. It's all so gross.

It's better than Gunsmoke reruns.

It's Friday morning. I took the day off and will be doing nothing but watching bowl games all afternoon because I don't want to do anything. If not for the bowls I wouldn't be able to watch football NOW. F-U to anyone who thinks the bowls should be eliminated.

I can't find my post, but I told you guys when this came out he was banging a nursing student. https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/news/local/2025/12/18/ohio-university-coach-brian-smith-fired-relationship-student-college-football/87829300007/?gnt-cfr=1&gca-cat=p&gca-uir=true&gca-epti=z116735d00----v116735d--75--b--75--&gca-ft=104&gca-ds=sophi&fbclid=IwdGRjcAOxa2tleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAwzNTA2ODU1MzE3MjgAAR4bMRXyqVRV-Y5pAKOeI9k2pryR-KHmbV8vpMNXfXwDWl8MpxVwXN5ppOlAHw_aem_HAWlIrRh7tTzB5PQ1N4C0w&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook

Is everyone excited about watching at least three, probably four, blowouts this weekend?

They finished in the middle of the pack in the MAC. Maybe it's crappy compared to the body of FBS, but it's an OK year for a MAC school. We aren't in the crappy category anymore.

I don't think locker rooms and other facilities are at the top of our problems list.

It's a good start. I'll take it seriously when it is structured like a pro sports league with 30-35 teams organized to win the championship like the NFL. It will never happen for a lot of reasons, but that's my line. I don't even take the basketball tournament seriously because it's more likely to crown a hot team and not the best team. Multi game tournaments like the NHL and NBA do that. I actually think the NCAA tournament should have fewer teams and require more than one loss to be eliminated.

I'm not bored by college football. I just don't take it as seriously as the people who run it want me to. For example, Friday Im going to see a band call Parks Brothers play. The playoff will be on. Every once in a while I'll look at the screen to see what's going on. The point I'm making is this. As much as they want us to believe it's a playoff, it simply isn't. It's an invitational tournament and the winner is called the National Champion after. To me, they are at the same level of champion as they were when they used to vote for the national championship. They just go about it a different way.

Looks like these potheads made some rare good decisions.

What else is on TV?

Oh well....
