@JoshPateCFB Bear Bachmeier will be invited from BYU to NYC as a Heisman finalist, Nebraska makes the BIG 10 championship and the PAC is back with a team from the PAC-12 winning at least one playoff game.

@ringjeff You need to find the DI closest to his house. They are about to get a truckload of gear.

If you're going to penalize a 1-loss Power Conference team for a weak strength of schedule... BYU's SOS is better than Ole Miss and Notre Dame.

If you're going to penalize a team for not having the strongest power ratings (which incorporate prior year's history and recruiting rankings)... BYU's FPI is higher than Oklahoma's.

If you're going to penalize a team for a non-competitive / bad loss... Alabama lost by 14 to a team with a losing record and Miami lost to two unranked teams.

If you're going to use strength-of-record like you indicated you would, BYU's SOR is the second highest of teams 6-12.

BYU also (1) made its conference championship game and (2) if you sum up the wins of the teams it has beaten, it is THIRD in the country. It is hard to win games and BYU has beaten a lot of teams with a lot of wins.

This. Makes. No. Sense.

The @CFBPlayoff should be ashamed of itself. It has literally contorted itself into a pretzel to avoid putting BYU where it should be ranked (somewhere between 6th - 9th).

RT to get the info out there. They need to feel pressure.

@gregwrubell I’m pretty sure the SEC is already propping up Texas to jump in the rankings to number 8.

@BobbysFoods not sure what your fizzy gummy mix is supposed to have in it, but I’m pretty sure this piece isn’t normal. Can you confirm?

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

@drakectoll You should have approached Dabo on behalf of @brettyormark for Big12 Expansion

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

@P_Norton It has been status quo for the band to begin playing at home games in the winter semester since at least 2005. The band is there to support the team and provide a collegiate atmosphere that is seen at every major program, still a lot of miscommunication from athletics and bands.

@jadynjc3 @everydayjess Where is a survey that we can fill out? Is there specific person to whom we should send a letter?

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

Easton learned about MLK day today in his British School and came home and asked me: why do we celebrate MLK day if we are white? His school left a little to be desired, but he and I had a good discussion about the importance. #uk_nuth #wordsofeaston

New thread for my second son and the musings of my two year old. Today for Christmas I was given a wallet and every present afterwards was a “big wallet” so I’m just hoping they were all filled with cash #uk_nuth

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

Dayton asks grandpa what he wants for dinner.
G: World Peace
D: I don’t think we have world peace. Mom do we have peace in the fridge?

Seriously Nebraska. What a sad loss today. Now 5-4 after losing to UCLA. Is another 5-7 season happening?

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

@drakectoll breaking news I can confirm that Kyle Wittingham’s mom drives around her Provo neighborhood in a golf cart putting Ute stickers on everyone’s mailbox. #rivalryweeks

At this point the new Pac12 just needs to take Texas State and go after a sponsorship and be the All State PAC 12 conference. #Pac12 #pacisback @drakectoll

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

While playing water volleyball in Mallorca, after Dayton served, I said “Nice Ace.” Every subsequent serve he asked what letter did I get? A D, an O, etc? #Daytonstanley

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

Dayton wanted to make sure he knew his last name was Knuth, so then I asked him what his middle name was. His response was awesome - Nebraska. Guess I’m teaching #daytonstanley right. #uk_nuth #daytonsdreams

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

Watching the opening ceremonies for #Paris2024 and listening to the French national anthem we told Leland we would hear our national anthem a lot during the medal ceremonies. He asked us if we would hear “God Save the King.” I guess I have failed #uk_nuth #musingsofan8yearold

Musings from my 4 yo today: “There are two types of P’s - the toilet P and the eating P. I don’t want the toilet P at dinner.”

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

Existential crises today for Easton on his last day of school. He asked me when I get my summer break. I said never, or not for 30 yrs. Immediately dread filled his face and he said he doesn’t want to grow up because that is too hard. #uk_nuth #wordsofeaston

[Taylor Knuth @smartay88]

Two Euros in England, 2 finals and 2 heartbreaks. The boys were especially sad after this game. Poor Easton was almost in tears and Leland acted as if he didn’t care. #uk_nuth
