Like honestly, imagine an Orange and White houndstooth…

lmao

idk I think some Michigan coach, I hear he used to be Tom Brady’s coach

Love these anonymous interviews, even for other conferences. Curious if you have any more insight into big red. As a Vol I’ve felt like kindred spirits the past one or two decades, and frankly the quotes there (other than commending the new OC) are the generic “oh they’re definitely building something there” lines that I have grown accustomed to throughout the jones and pruitt years.

There are some really good reasons to make changes, not trying to say that this was the case in the parent comment, but there are certainly cases where this makes sense. About halfway through my discrete math final my professor wrote a curve on the board based on exam results from the other test session. He realized that he hadn’t properly taught some concepts and he thought it would be unfair for us to suffer because of his mistakes. Should he have been forced to stick to a non curved exam because he hadn’t announced it in the rubric or to the first exam session?

fwiw, I personally think that coonskin cap UT did use Pruitt as a scapegoat. But they fired him for cause, and to quote Sam O’Nella “I’m mad butt hurt isn’t a valid reason for prosecution”

I know this won’t interest most lemmy users, but the forums for most large american colligate sports programs are alive and well.

“4th and 5. Bracket Reset on the line.”

I’ve never heard of the swiss system before, but I genuinely like the sound of this.

SEC

Greatest Conference in the World

All other Conferences are run by little girls

128 team single elimination tournament, first round losers are relegated to FCS every season. Seeding is based on the previous year’s non revenue team performances in their respective National Championships

We’re losing ST coach Mike Ekler to Nebraska, which is a damn shame. Man would literally run through a brick wall

And tbf I don’t think Boise is half bad either. But looking back on the postseason and seeing how anosu SMOKED ND, Oregon AND Texas (2,3 and 4 for those who didn’t click the link) I feel like we should be given more credit for being able to walk away from that fight at all. OR this a reflection of the season as a whole in which case I still protest osu and ND being as high as they are with losses to unranked rival Michigan (still absolutely hilarious that it happened to bama btw) and 7th in the MAC NIU respectively, both at home.

Edit: But at the end of the day I do realize it is silly to be upset over what is effectively a popularity contest poll

Look I’m not a Nega Vol, I won’t complain about a top 10essee. But behind Boise and ASU? Really? Like again they were conference champs and we got thrashed in the postseason. But still, c’mon man.

Honestly the talking heads just weren’t kidding when they said osu has far and away the most talented team in the playoff

The playoff will give us more competitive games they said

Edit: that was a BOOMING kick off tho

I think someone just got stabbed in the stadium, that was an insane yell the crowd mic picked up

It’s what happens when those new clock rules cant give us the 20 ad breaks per quarter that we NEED.

I feel like osu always manages to get a reciever open along the sidelines in that 10-20 yard range. Will always has a check down with seperation

OSU’s Sunday roster starting to seperate

I love long drives, makes it so we don’t have as many ad breaks
