drunk leprechaun posted:Yeah they are going back to the pre-1999 teams names of Cadets, which mirrors the Midshipmen team names at Navy. I don't really care for the team name that much since the Army brand was always way stronger, and will be more interested in the uniforms. It's this. "Black Knights" was basically an unofficial nickname for like 70 years, I think some journalist dubbed them "The Black Knights of West Point" or somesuch and it just stuck. They made the change to it official in '99. As to what happens to the uniforms, I just hope they keep away from that goofy digicam they've tried a time or two. It looks awful.

I... I wore maroon in the student section at some A&M games out of love for a woman and for college football. I must live with this decision every day of my life. I drew the line at singing the song.

I was once seeing this girl who was going to Akron. It didn't work out and now she enjoys the use of heroin. Just Say No to Akron.

My wife had no rooting interest for any school when I met her and her family was Michigan fans. She's now a diehard Ohio State fan with me and her family seriously can't understand why.

"Bob Bowlsby" posted:“I think there's some belief that ACC would play three divisions, have two highest ranked play in postseason,” said Bob Bowlsby, chairman of the new NCAA Football Oversight Committee. “Really, nobody cares how you determine your champion. It should be a conference-level decision. Well Bob I'd say there's some pretty strong evidence that the playoff committee cares how you determine a champion.

MourningView posted:"Black Knights" could in theory be adopted to any school that happened to wear black while "Cadets" is a distinctly Army thing and has a long history with the program so this seems fine to me and also Army Football is complete butts so who really cares. My first year in college was when Illinois and Kurt Kittner won the MicronPC.com bowl game and I fervently thought that each season would get better! I guess I'll just resort to telling everyone there that Illinois produces superior NFL RBs than Bama does.

The coolest girl I had a thing with was one who went to Carnegie Mellon who introduced herself as going to "CMU" which I took to mean Central Michigan and we didn't figure out why we were both so confused when we were talking about CMU until weeks later.

Detroit_Dogg posted:Did you whip your saber out when the other team had the audacity to celebrate? No I mostly just yelled really loud when Johnny Manziel would do his best Johnny Manziel impression, felt bummed that I wouldn't get to root for Texas among those same people on Thanksgiving, and wished that I could breathe. Because it was like 1000 degrees and A&M blatantly pads their seating capacity by allotting 10 inches of bleacher per person (at least in the student section). You're not just in contact with your neighbor, you're powerfully squeezed against them.

So Josh Rosen got his first full 11v11 time with the first team offense in yesterday's practice and the hype train is officially leaving the station. Looked good, threw some nice deep balls, was comfortable in the pocket, is the future messiah, etc etc. Why is football season still so far away
