VT at night against ND should be a great environment. At least until the offense kicks itself in it's own dick and makes it painful to watch for VT fans. At least the defense is kinda fun again. I think given the ND offense's lack of explosion this year, it could be a tight fun game. I dunno Fu has gotten me conditioned to expect the worst from the team generally.

Too bad its on the ACCN and approximately half the people that want to see it will.

Go Vols Bitch. Great to see fun football around Rocky Top.

Ok that detail about the ACCN pissed me off. Been a bad Monday between work being extra lovely and likely getting shittier and baby girl probably having covid. Was looking forward to that game but WELP GUESS NOT.

gently caress the ACCN. Can't get carriage agreements on anything. What are they the loving Pac-12? Embarassing.

I don’t think Ed is getting fired this year. They are a year and a half removed from one of the greatest seasons ever and last year was weird for everyone. They’re breaking in new coordinators on both sides of the ball and the presumptive starting QB went down at the beginning of the year. His seat will be warm next year though.

His seat's pretty drat warm now. LSU remembers the fall of Les after 2011's nearly undefeated season and how it just stretched out and was on the downslope until he finally was fired. I doubt they want to do that again. Hell, even Les had pretty constant 9-10 win seasons after 2011 but it just never was the same. To go from 15-0 to 5-5 (even with COVID), if they end with a losing season, he's gone.

Unless they lose every game by 20 and lose to ULM, I think they will let O finish the season out. While it sucks that he's a dead man walking, I think they still let him finish the season simply because of him being a local guy and 2019. The AD isn't the one who hired O so no loyalty there and 8-7 since the championship game is unacceptable for LSU.

I think the team will hobble their way to 6 or 7 wins and avoid a losing season. They can beat anyone on their schedule other than Bama and also lose to any of them but I think they’ll win at least 3 of the remaining games. They still haven’t had a loss as bad as the absolutely dumpstering by MSU last year and they still managed to get to 5-5 without any cupcakes.

They also owe Orgeron more than 20 million if they fire him this year and I don’t think that money will just magically appear from booster pockets and make that no big deal.

This was very good and it is indeed sad to see it have gone away at the altar of more cash please

Sling TV is not that great, gave it a try, and the apps regularly struggle to load the feed or display a black screen. The DVR function works, but really only works well for something thats fully recorded it does a fairly poo poo job of starting from the beginning of an on going feed. It also regularly restarts a recording you've paused to come back to later which irks me. When it's working its just fine, good quality etc, just annoying how regularly (despite it getting updates every few weeks it seems like) it just doesn't.

Fubo.tv looked interesting, but its the same price as Youtube TV and sling being half the cost there abouts for only what I actually wanted seemed like a good way to go. Guess I know why now.

I predicted this would be Frost's last season and I still think that option is easily on the table. There aren't three games on the schedule that I'd give Nebraska a better than 50% chance of winning. If he can make it to five wins again, it might save his job depending on how it looks. He really needed to win that Illinois game.

Part of me wants him to get another year because I'm sick of coach changes.

They should have fired him after the Illinois game and now he might be able to squeak another year out which is only gonna end in disappointment no matter what. There’s no proof that he’s ever gonna be the guy there.

UK would be a quite good football team if they had a quarterback, i think

but for whatever reason any man that travels south of the Ohio or north of the Cumberland suddenly becomes unable to throw the ball

louisville is on the river, which is why why UofL were able to have bridgewater and lamar jackson - they were not deep enough in the anti-ball-throwing energy field yet

I've often wondered what Tim Couch could have done with this year's or the 2018 defense. Or Jared Lorenzen, or Andre Woodson. Hell, even Mike Hartline. Levis had such a great first game, it's been a little disappointing that they haven't been able to replicate that yet.

iowa and michigan are obvious losses

the thing is, they could’ve (should’ve) won the msu game, they would roll over illinois if they played them now, and that oklahoma game was closer than it had any right being, and if they weren’t so snakebitten we’re talking about a 5 win team right now

I have absolutely no clue but I just noticed their backup QB is named Logan Smothers and Nebraska's future is going to be amazing in some fashion because of that.

Their backup backup is Matt Masker which has quite a bit of promise too. His own fan base is gonna hate him for being pro-mask.

It's still satisfying, because that entire segment is dedicated to laughing at people who lost money betting on those games. I have never bet on sports games, but that's one of my favorite segments SVP does.
