sounds like stadium pulse is gonna be brutal in College Football 26

there’s gonna be enhanced Stadium Pulse effects, including a more intense camera shake, new heads-up display visuals, and clock distortion that simulates the high pressure of playing as a visitor in hostile territory

Rivalry games, the College Football Playoff, and other high-stakes matchups are now even more affected by Stadium Pulse

When you’re on the road, you’ll need Confidence & Composure to help counteract the rattling environment

there’s new situations and stadium-specific music, fight songs, and dynamic commentary

EA’s claims the new presentation reflects the importance of each game in the
context of your season

there will be more of your school’s unique
pageantry, traditions, and sounds with new PA tracks, including Metallica’s
“Enter Sandman,” 160 new school- specific chants, new mascots, and band
music

also, your ears are saved, they’re getting rid of the drums in the menus and replacing them with marching band covers and 15 fight songs

The Big 12 has decided to not sell an ownership stake to private equity, commissioner Brett Yormark told @FOS in Orlando.

Selling conference naming rights is also 'on pause,' if not completely off the table.

Great news for Mike Leach fans: College Football Hall of Fame will lower win percentage in 2027 for coaches from 60 to 59.5 percent, which will make the former Mississippi State/Texas Tech/Washington State coach eligible to join the hall

During a call earlier today, Big Ten ADs discussed the 5 AQ + 11 At-large CFP model under consideration in the SEC, sources tell @YahooSports.

Many ADs say they would not support such a model if the SEC remains at eight conference games. The Big Ten plays nine conference games.

Fearing an Indiana-OKC Finals, the NBA is considering a plan where the Lakers and Celtics would get twice as many entries in the Playoffs going forward.

And a double bye.

And twice as much of the postseason revenue.

It’s coming.

[Steve Wiltfong @SWiltfong_]

When do you think we have a 32-team College Football Playoff? Two years? The argument for the best four-loss team will be great banter.

CFP 5+11 model draws interest from SEC coaches… an alternative option to highly publicized AQs. Sankey said “.. at the coaching level, the question is, why wouldn’t that be fine? Why wouldn’t we do that?” My story with ⁦@PeteThamel⁩ here … https://t.co/s8x3fUmc5v

@Bama_Hammer Perhaps it’s because it’s through text, or maybe it’s simply you (or me) misunderstanding what the other wrote, or points not being conveyed well through X, but I wish you well man. I hope you have a great one!

[Saturday Blitz @SaturdayBlitz]

@Bama_Hammer Okay,

1. I made the point your coach was being a crybaby and included Vandy in my argument.

2. You said Vandy was 2-0 in the ACC. I said bowls don’t matter, you said they do.

3. I said fine, then Michigan proved Bama didn’t belong in CFP.

4. Now you call it “bad faith”

[Saturday Blitz @SaturdayBlitz]

@Bama_Hammer @The_LFB I never included Michigan beating Bama in any argument until you said that bowl games matter. My “moving the goal posts” was only to when you made the point about bowls.

I wouldn’t have even brought up your bowl game had you not been so convinced that Vandy beating GT mattered

[Saturday Blitz @SaturdayBlitz]

@Bama_Hammer @The_LFB Why are you trying to defend Vandy so hard still? The bowl game argument you keep coming back to only hurts *your* argument.

[Saturday Blitz @SaturdayBlitz]

@The_LFB @Bama_Hammer Ummm…. Last time I checked, Indiana beat Michigan. So no, you wouldn’t have been undefeated and no, there is no “objectively true” point in the propaganda you or DeBoer want to spew.

[Jon Wilner @wilnerhotline]

The Big 12's annual spring meetings (this week) should be the last without ACC executives in an adjoining conference room. It's getting heated at the P4 level and a united front for the two leagues ... everything short of a merger ... should be on the table. --->

[Geoff Schwartz @geoffschwartz]

The SEC hasn't won a football championship in two seasons after winning six of the first nine playoff years ... and now the system is broken and needs fixing. lmao

[Saturday Blitz @SaturdayBlitz]

@Bama_Hammer @AlabamaMachine So, how would that be disinformation? Where do you think narrative trickled down from?
