I like the ND coach. Wonder if they can keep him there?

If they do manage to win the national championship, I hope the coach acknowledges the Northern Illinois coach who called him up after UNI beat them to point out what they saw in the film and took advantage of.

Thanks to NBC, they have more money than anyone else.

Brutal collapse for Texas in the fourth. I assume OSU will be favored to win.

That was some play calling by an offensive genius.

Somewhat poetic to be stripped of the ball by your former roommate and then to watch him run 80+ yards back for a TD.

Ohio state is around $20 million in NIL, Texas and Notre Dame are supposedly up there too. Does Alabama have rich enough alumni to compete? It will be interesting if the big schools with rich alumni bases start replacing the Alabama, LSU, FSUs

Heh. Look how well SMU did paying the players when it was against the rules. I wonder how they’re going to do over time now that it’s allowed.

There are more in Boston. And NYC. And Philly.

And DC. I've wanted to clothesline someone at work for weeks because he will not STFU about NDFT. I mean, I'm senior to him so he needs to listen to me about the Caps.

Turned into a heck of a game but that bomb was the dagger. Congrats OSU.

I flipped it on in the 3rd quarter 28-7 and said, "not worth watching. Too bad.

I guess we can safely rule out a repeat for OSU...

How does someone so bad at their job keep getting hired?

Natsinpwc · « **Reply #220 on:** February 12, 2025, 09:32:45 pm »

He’s gonna rehab his reputation like Chip Kelly.

I guess if I live long enough, most of the sports comentators I have loathed for decades will be off the airwaves...yet likely to be replaced by others...

Anyway...#littlevictories...Lee Corso has finally left College Gameday at 90...

W&M taking its talents to the Patriot League - https://patriotleague.org/news/2025/4/25/patriot-league-announces-william-mary-to-join-league-as-associate-member-for-football.aspx

That means that their annual game against Richmond, ongoing since 1898, can continue as a conference matchup.
