@BearFlagFan@PickSixPreviews That was back in a time when conferences had 8-10 teams and everyone played each other. With 16-18 team conferences, they will need strength of schedule metrics to determine conference champs.
@chrisfallica Do we really think 13-24 would have been the same if those were tied to actual playoff positions? No way 3 G5 teams make the 24 team playoffs. Those were meaningless tokens from the committee.
@Chris_allen196@chrisfallica I prefer the bowl games being the last week of December rather than 1st week of December. 8 decent teams’ seasons will end the first weekend of December (likely on the road). No bowl experience, no extra weeks of practice/development.
James Talarico, a Democrat, is quoting Scripture in his victory speech, and the crowd is cheering.
Democrats don’t hate religion. We hate watching people weaponize it.
Faith isn't the problem. Using God as a weapon against your neighbors is.
The Cheesecake Factory stuff is a really good encapsulation of conservative discourse during the Obama era for folks not old enough to have experienced it. Endless whining and mind-loss over something they wouldn’t even notice if someone else said it. Eight years of that!
@Brett_McMurphy Have CFP 1st round losers still be bowl eligible. 8 decent teams’ post-season experience will be a loss (likely on the road) the first week of Dec. Why not let them turn around and play each other in a few weeks? Players would still get bowl experience + better bowl matchups.
@realBrandonGill@KenPaxtonTX Paxton was born in North Dakota, he has no Texan blood. Talarico is multi-generational Texan. At least admit Texan blood has nothing to do with your position
@MattMoscona The nerds will still be deciding the 24 - debating between 4 & 5 loss teams. Arguing the 7th best SEC team vs the 3rd best Big 12 team. Meanwhile 16 decent teams’ seasons will end by mid Dec, and we’re stuck with a TX St vs New Mexico Alamo Bowl.
@TomFornelli St Jude and BMW are essentially “play in” opportunities for the 31-70 ranked golfers to earn a spot in the Top 30. It doesn’t completely dismiss wins/points earned earlier in the year. Next week is the “winner take all” format you apparently need a “playoff” to be.
@TomFornelli It’s not a playoff like in other sports where the regular season becomes meaningless. It’s essentially an extension of the regular season with more points available and narrower fields.
@BudElliott3 How are you so sure about that? The schedule disparity between the two can’t be ignored. Had Tech moved to SEC and OU stayed in B12, they would have just swapped records and playoff positions (and both still would have been one and done in the playoffs).
@BudElliott3 So your biggest bash against the SEC is that the SEC has so many teams making the playoffs that they end up playing each other and somehow those playoff wins don’t count?
🚨 Trump has pardoned Trevor Milton, a man convicted of stealing $695 million from investors.
This pardon came after Milton donated nearly $1 million to Trump's PAC.
