Proverbs 3: 5-6

[Brandel Chamblee @chambleebrandel]

Having once been a professional golfer should not come with a death sentence as it relates to one’s ability to compete at the highest level as an amateur.

Professional status itself doesn’t create an enduring competitive advantage.

There is no magical reservoir of talent that descends upon somebody just because they decide to turn professional, it’s just that most players that turn professional were amongst the best amateurs; why else would they think they could make a living playing the sport.

Of course there should be some stipulation or formula for the amount of time/and or success one was or had followed by a reasonable period in purgatory—but purgatory, by definition shouldn’t last for ever.

Are we really going to do that thing where Missouri stays ranked all season despite not beating anyone? Wake goes to Louisville and beats No. 16 and they can’t crack the poll?

Why these events matter.

Major championships have become SO big, it's hard to really get a feel for a venue now.

The US Amateur at Merion is different.

Don't believe me, listen to @JustinRose99....

ESPN has pre-determined that THIS is the toughest schedule in the country.

[Jerry Lorient @Jerrylorient]

A brother now has to bury his twin because someone brought a knife to a school event. A mother lost her child. A father has to look at his son every day and be reminded there used to be two of them. An entire family is shattered forever.

This isn’t about race. This isn’t about politics. It’s about basic human decency.

A young life was taken, and the punishment doesn’t feel equal to the pain left behind. The victim’s family received a life sentence of grief while everyone else moves on.

Auburn's resume:

- Almost lost to Bethune-Cookman
- Lost to Purdue by 28
- Lost to Arizona by 29
- Lost to Michigan by 30
- 7-11 in SEC
- Lost 8 out of last 10 games

1 road win at Florida does not make up for all that.

Keep this team away from the NCAA Tournament. 💩

[CFB Kings @CFBKings]

The ACC just had an excellent season, with its premier program Clemson not contributing, but apparently they’re “secret garbage.”

• National Championship appearance

• Miami by themselves won as many CFP games as the entire 5-bid SEC.

• Winning record vs. the SEC (for the second time in the last three years. Five consecutive wins over the SEC to end last season).

• Virginia just won 11 games.

• SMU is 20-7 in two years at the Power 4 level.

• Georgia Tech had their best season since 2016.

• Duke won 9 games for the third time in the last four years.

• Louisville won 9+ games for a third consecutive season.

• 9-4 Wake Forest just had their best season since 2021 in their first year under Jake Dickert.

• FSU, in the midst of a 2-6 year in ACC play, smoked Alabama.

Dabo Swinney and Clemson had a bad year for the first time since 2010 and weren’t in the mix at all, and the ACC was still extremely competitive.

And the narrative is somehow that they are an “afterthought of a conference.”

Clemson dominates the finale and takes the series over South Carolina 🔥🔥

[Noah Chast @NoahChastTV]

"We don't celebrate out of control like we just won the World Series after one win."

Clemson head coach Erik Bakich, possibly taking shots at the #Gamecocks, after the Tigers 4-1 win over South Carolina. Says the series finale tomorrow at DKS is a big one.

[Walt Deptula @deptulahasrage]

There is no way the SEC should be given more than 3 teams ever again in a 12 team field, or 4 in a 16. Not even sure about those numbers. The league has literally done nothing the last 3 seasons in the playoffs, other than get embarrassed.

[BoxScore @BoxScore_FB]

The SEC had TEN(!!!) preseason ranked teams. This is the whole reason their teams are overrated today, because they beat overrated teams all season and inflated their resume.

We cannot let that happen again next season.

BREAKING: Clemson DE Will Heldt will return for his senior season, per his agency and @PeteThamel.

Massive news for the Tigers and Tom Allen’s defense.

Mark Ingram says Alabama should not be in the Playoff

Keeping it real

[CFB Kings @CFBKings]

I remember the committee chair referencing Miami’s “trajectory” earlier in the year and punishing them in the rankings for how they looked.

Here’s Alabama’s last month of football:

• Struggled with 4-8 South Carolina (trailed in the 4th quarter).

• Scored 20 points on 7-5 LSU (2nd fewest of the season, only team they scored less on was 5-7 Florida State).

• Lost at home to the only ranked team they’ve played in the last 6 weeks.

• Struggled with 5-7 Auburn (tied in the 4th quarter).

Is Alabama one of the Top 10 teams in College Football right now?

[CFB Kings @CFBKings]

Clemson beats South Carolina 28-14 🐅

The Tigers beat the Gamecocks for the 9th time in the last 11 years and win for a 6th consecutive time in Columbia.

After starting 1-3, Clemson wins 6 of their last 8 to finish the regular season 7-5.

[CFB Kings @CFBKings]

Clemson’s offensive coordinator is trying to lose this game 😭

Kirby Smart yells that he was clapping, but was clearly calling a timeout

lol this is absolutely absurd tonight with SEC officials.

Absolutely worth three minutes of your time.
