Good for Reggie, dude was one of the best to ever do it in college, travesty to have taken it in the first place. Why should the Heisman group care about the fuckin ncaa?

If Mega Conferences is the future, I wish the Pac 12 would reform, only FL State + Clemson leave ACC for SEC or B1G, the American would get raided by the PAC and ACC, Tulane/Memphis/USF go to the ACC, and UTSA/Tulsa to NUPAC. Then what's left of the American, merges with Sun Belt and CUSA to form a Mega Conference. After this happens, the playoff should then have auto bids for champs of Big 12, B1G, SEC, ACC, NUPAC, and Sun American USA (name in progress.) The rest of the 6-8 bids would be wild cards.

I feel like anything beyond 12 is the beginnings of a mega conference. The closer a conference gets to 20 teams, the closer they are to being a mega conference. I hate conferences getting bigger, the slow death of regionalism, and tradition in the sport. Really, I just don't want to see my favorite team left out (yet).

Breakaway super league, OTOH, trims the fat, so to speak, and you wind up with ~40 teams. e: So this was a week ago already, but Tech coach Joey McGuire had some thoughts about the helmet communication rules. He is not a fan of the nfl-esque version they adopted. - Because they limited it to 1 player on the field at a time, it makes management harder. Teams have to swap helmets when swapping player packages as well as gives more for the refs to pay attention to. - Means that signals from the sideline, all the stupid images and grids and whatever else, are still going to be a thing. Which also means that sign stealing will still be a thing. He was in favor of either the rule they played the bowl game with (3 players with communication, shut off during the play) or expanding that even further, putting a speaker into every helmet. Personally, I still think they missed the best solution: the HUD that AT&T developed for the school for the deaf. Gets rid of signs and sign stealing while not being responsive enough to take away from the game. You can put that on literally every helmet, every player can get the call, but it's not responsive enough to use for in-play communication. Forget accessibility, it's the best general-purpose solution. kayakyakr fucked around with this message at 21:22 on Apr 24, 2024 |

The closer a conference gets to 20 teams, the closer they are to being a mega conference. Ah yeah sorry, I was mistakenly conflating what you were talking about with the wildly implausible 80-team super league model that was being posed a few weeks backs. I'm not sure what to make of the AAC going forward. I get that there weren't really any good moves on the table with Houston and UCF departing, but it seems that inviting half of C-USA diluted their product in a way that was maybe unnecessary. But I guess if the none of the top of the Sun Belt were going to break ranks then there wasn't much else they could do. In any event, seems like the MWC plus Wazzu and Oregon State (whatever shape and name that conference ends up taking) probably gets the benefit of the doubt as the best G5 going forward; and I don't think the Sun Belt is far behind the AAC in reality.

The entire Sun Belt media payout is about what an individual AAC school gets paid on their deal. None of this is really about quality of on the field product, it’s about money. Sure Tulane will lose their coach if they have a good season or two but at least it would be to a program on a P5 budget. Two of the last 4 sun belt coaches of the year left to other G5s. I think the American will likely collapse if the ACC or NuPac poach a few schools before their next tv deal. I’d assume most schools in the American would leave for either of those options. It is hard to predict what happens to anyone outside of the P2 right now. Essentially all schools not in the SEC or B1G would burn every bridge with their current conference if it got them an invite.

How many of the schools represented in those throwback pics still make regular use of the “throwback” logo? OU still uses that schooner logo pretty often even if the block OU is the ubiquitous, standard logo. Same deal with OSU and Pistol Pete

Judgy Fucker posted:How many of the schools represented in those throwback pics still make regular use of the “throwback” logo? It's not on any of the uniforms but the old UGA logo is all over fan gear. I think the fanbase's feel for the circa 2013 Nike rebrand of everything is "it's fine," but you can't beat the classics.

That's Baylor's "already dated on rollout" early 2000's logo; while that's technically a throwback it seems like Sailor Bear is the one you're looking for (though I know it's one of a million 60s vintage cartoon sailor mascots) :format(webp):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/19769794/Baylor.0.png)
