I thought Miami already broke out these black unis for one of their earlier games?

I guess that means you can count on the Hokies likely going all white. Honestly I have no idea, they've done something different all but 2 weeks this season. I would personally prefer maroon/white/maroon for this one but that would be my preferred away kit anyway.

It was supposed to be the GT game when it was a Thursday night game, but it got moved to Saturday afternoon thanks to Irma.

I think it'll be close for 3 quarters. Then UGA is gonna get off their rear end and score 21 in the 4th alone.

You know, I looked at the games this weekend, and I'm going to put Syracuse on upset alert.

After their tough loss to Miami, followed by a bye week and then looking ahead to a big game with Wake Forest, I feel that the FSU game could be a trap. Every team that's walked into Doak this year has walked out a winner, and I feel that Syracuse could be a bit over confident. Jimbo's looking for his first win at home this year, and maybe the team comes out motivated.

$4m to make Mac leave is a hell of a lot lower than the $8.1 it'd take Tennessee to dump Butch right now.

No, just reading between the lines. An "undisclosed medical issue" along with a press release offering "all of our support and best wishes throughout this time" from the school pretty much tells the story.

Its really less than that because Mac owes $1.5m to both UF and CSU as part of a deferred buyout clause that Florida would have paid for in full at the end of his contract but because he is leaving he has to pay it.

I'd say at least the Big 10 has more than one good team, but I imagine if Ohio State, Penn State, and Wisconsin formed one Voltron team they'd just about equal Alabama, so it's pretty even

I'm happy for the guy. He would have been squandered by Nuss and he might have been decent enough to save Mac's job so probably for the best he's Funslingin in West Virginia.

To be fair, FSU was at full strength to start that game and injuries have just piled up since. Bama got the best version of them, whatever thats worth.

Yeah, though the Big Ten portion this year was out of our control (as it is for all the teams in conference, to be fair).

So of course we scheduled cupcakes well in advance.

At least we don't play Rutgers this year, then it would be REALLY soft.

Where can I find info like this? I looked around to see if we paid any sort of buyout for Butch that he may owe but all I can find is that he resigned, nothing about a buyout. So it sounds like he either paid it or he didnt owe one.

It's mostly through public records requests, then digging through the coach's contract and translating the legalese.

They can definitely afford it. Tennessee athletics makes a shitton of money and our biggest booster (Haslam) is worth billions. My guess is they're waiting to have the new guy ready before they announce Butch's firing. Or their looking for a way to reduce the buyout. Affording it isn't the issue.

There's not any 16-17 numbers yet but UT reported surplus earnings of over 13 million in '14-'15 and 12 million in '15-'17 - that's the athletics department as a whole.

In 2015 Forbes rated Tennessee #3 behind Notre Dame and Texas as most valuable football team.
