And it made one-eighth the difference.
Coach O is truly an inspiration to college coaches everywhere.

I saw RichRod and Hoke games in person, and Lions fans have known far worse pain. SE Michigan will be fine (sports-wise. Still a nightmare in regards to transportation, the economy, political strife, climate, etc.)

god, i remember my first game as a michigan student was seeing tate forcier throw all over notre dame, and seeing ESPN tout him as a potential heisman winner on sportcenter that night lol
never in a million years did i think michigan would win a national championship again

How did LSU ever let their very own natty winning cajun cookie monster get away? And does he want a job? Because I think Texas still needs a DL coach and I want to hear him say Lamborghini.

Because once he won it he was less interested in coaching than in trying to gently caress everything that moved and the team fell apart. No hard feelings but he was pretty clearly checked out.

I think he still has a "show up 2 days a year" gig with LSU too for a lot of money. So yeah why the gently caress would he go back to coaching?

Luckily our defensive coordinators are not trying to be defensive coordinator for life because no one will hire them away because of his "taking his charity too seriously."

UNC were the ACC stalwarts from previous reporting if I remember right. Like, they were the ones who weren't making any noise and wanted everything to stay the same weren't they?

e: from the article I guess they did explore getting out of that grant of rights.

How many NFL teams even are there that don't have an Alabama guy on their roster?

That stat is also kind of annoying because touchdown passes don't count (I understand why, but you know what I mean). Bart Starr and Ken Stabler certainly must have done that much.

Throwing it so that your WR can catch it in stride and keep running is something good QBs do.

UNC is the lynchpin of the ACC; if they leave the conference either dies or becomes a shell of itself. Same with Texas/B12, same with USC/UCLA/Pac-12. It'd be the same with Bama/SEC and Michigan/Ohio State/B1G.

Realistically, it's a matter of when, not if. UNC has value, FSU does too. I posted my value chart in one of these threads a while back, but nothing's changed.

The RB doesn’t have to do much when their line opens a huge hole all the way up to the safeties but we still give them for those yards.
