Today we learned what $1 Million to the MAGA Inc. PAC gets you: A public apology from @US_FDA for opening an investigation into your company. Incredible.
Trump says Democrats forgot to rig the election in 2016, successfully rigged it while *he* was president in 2020, then forgot how to rig it again in 2024. So the only election Democrats supposedly stole was the one he himself controlled.
You have to be a special kind of stupid to believe this bullshit.
Scoop: On June 11, Ken Paxton threatened to sue the Big 12 if it sanctioned Texas Tech for fielding QB Brendan Sorsby.
The day before, Texas Tech Regents Chair Cody Campbell, a Sorsby defender, donated $274,300 in support of Paxton's #TXSEN bid: https://t.co/PFXypvzrz1
Last year ESPN FPI didn’t have eventual national champ Indiana in initial Top 25 rankings & its No. 1 team Texas didn’t even make playoffs. Also didn’t rank Texas Tech. Good times
Vanderbilt plays an FCS team, Conference USA team, middle of the pack ACC team, six SEC teams who had a record .500 or worse in conference last year, and three good SEC teams.
Strength of Schedule according to ESPN: 18
BYU plays an FCS team, Pac 12 team, Notre Dame, only THREE teams who had a record below .500 in Big 12 play, and four good Big 12 teams.
Strength of Schedule according to ESPN: 55
Baylor plays an FCS team, Conference USA team, middle of the pack SEC team, but gets only three Big 12 teams who had a record .500 or worse, and six teams with winning records, including four who finished ranked.
Strength of schedule according to ESPN: 42
Make it make sense!?
Since everyone wants to jump on ESPN FPI rankings, let’s check out how well ESPN’s FPI did last year!
No 1 Texas missed the Playoffs
No. 5 Penn State went 7-6
No. 11 Clemson finished unranked
No. 12 LSU finished 7-6
No. 14 Auburn missed a bowl game
No. 15 South Carolina finished 4-8
No. 18 Florida finished 4-8
No. 21 KSU missed bowl
No. 22 Arkansas went 2-10
No. 25 Nebraska went 7-6
No Texas Tech, BYU, Utah, Houston, or TCU who all finished ranked.
No Indiana who beat everyone and won the Natty
No G6 teams (4 finished ranked)
They had 13 SEC schools ranked, and somehow missed Vanderbilt
I don’t think you could create a worse poll if you tried.
