On the other hand with cold weather chat there's nothing cooler than being hot as hell because you're working hard out there and then coming over to the bench and taking off your helmet and just emitting steam for a few minutes.

I got to run a half marathon Saturday morning here in the Knoxville area and the starting temp is going to be like 20 degrees. Normally this time of year it would in the 40’s. Just my luck. I hate running in the cold.

You'll have to be more specific as there were many.

I used to never wear shorts, but then I moved to Virginia and discovered that I was extremely cold adapted. This Thanksgiving will be at the in-laws in Georgia and I'll likely take a dip in their pool.

I used to smoke, so when I went outside to have one I wasn’t going to put shoes on just for a seven minute trip to the patio twice an hour so yeah, I’ve stood around barefoot in the snow.

Fortunately not many times because I live in the same climate as fast cars

Marching band in sun zero temps is always fun. Have to blow through the trombone just to get the slide unfrozen. At least I could wear full gloves, woodwinds need their fingertips exposed.

lol many great memories of using vodka-infused blue juice to get our valves to move when it was 5 degrees out

the gopher-iowa game is going to have a high of 16, which I think is our coldest game since the 2013 wisconsin game where we had to cut gameday rehearsal short by 45 minutes because everyone’s valves froze and we were unable to play halftime except the final song because even with the vodka valve solution everything still was frozen solid. going to be a fun one!

So where do Texas and Sark stand right now? I feel like Aggies’ poor showing this year has (understandably) overshadowed another pretty uninspiring showing for the Horns. If they win out and win their bowl that’s a nice enough 9-4 season, but Kansas and Baylor are still readily losable games. Seems like there’s a risk of the good will from the Bama and Oklahoma games burning out before the season is over.

He's rapidly becoming Scott Frost where we've lost a shitload of games by 1 score, which probably gives him more leniency.

I think seat starts warming up if they keep collapsing in second half and he doesn't get to 10 wins in next 2 seasons.

We are probably gonna drop at least one of our last two games, and I feel like a lot of the good will Sark built up over the first half of the season is gonna evaporate if that happens. Especially if Bama and OU continue to look like rear end.

I think three of the four playoff spots are solidified by teams that are in control of their own destinies.

Georgia, the winner of Michigan and Ohio State, and TCU, if they all win out.

I think the committee is hellbent to get two SEC teams into the playoff, even though a 12-1 USC ought to get in over Tennessee whose one loss was a blowout to Georgia. We don't need to see a rematch of this.

i think saying bama looks like rear end is overstating it a bit; they lost two games against the number 5 and number 6 teams by a combined 4 points

Tennessee is also a better team than USC straight up

I think TCU could drop one and still make it, as long as it's not the Big 12 title game.

If USC wins out they'd pick up wins over Notre Dame, UCLA, and the PAC 12 North champ, which would get them in.

i think oregon is probably head and shoulders better than usc and utah's already beaten usc once so if either of them end up playing usc in the title game then it's probably a non issue

washington is more of a toss up but they need a lot of things to happen to make it to the title game
