Has anyone seen a good list of who has a (joking) claim to the national championship based on "we beat the team that beat the team that beat Clemson" chains yet? It should be huge this year, since Pitt lost to a lot of mediocre teams that lost a lot of games. Maybe we even have a Div2 claimant.

Best I saw was Kansas.

This is all well and good right up until the point where Alabama wins next seasons national title.

I don't hate Bama, even if FSU opens the season with them.

I don't hate them as much as I'm just bored of them.

The whole point of college football is to hate everyone that doesn't play or coach for your team and also probably your teams offensive coordinator.

Who, the Browns?

Please, the Browns couldn't even win the Big Ten that year where Todd Boeckmann quarterbacked Ohio State to a national championship berth and Illinois played in the Rose Bowl.

House Hunters International is the best. "Kayylyyn is a 19 year old unpaid intern at a garment shop in Paris. Her budget is $200 per month and she wants a one bedroom apartment with a view of the Seine, Notre Dame, and the Arc De Triomphe"

Faygo is popular because it's what your cheap grandparents had at their house when you were a kid. I bought a redpop a few years ago and thought I was going to die from the sweetness.

Birmingham Brother Rice produces bigots and racists please do not send your kids to that garbage school.

Done!

Other disqualifying factors: it's an all boys school and I can't ever see myself being in a position to afford 11K per year in tuition. Also apparently their slogan is "Act Manfully in Christ Jesus" which is just kind of weird and creepy.

I hope Michigan gets to play them, and puts up a triple-digit shutout.

God if Michigan played liberty who would I root for.

Liberty I guess. I'm sure their horrible fan and alumni base won't be any happier than they already were after the election. Plus the mgoblog guy would probably get so angry he'd take his blog down for a week again or sucker punch another high school student.

Ohio State didn't deserve that slot, but I don't know who did. USC had three losses, I understand snubbing Penn State since they deserve terrible karmic retribution until the sun explodes. Michigan would have been stupid. They probably should have put Pitt in.

This is me. I love Mizzou, but I will not be donating probably ever, unless I become a millionaire.

I didn't attend a school that extorts donations for football season tickets so I can't see donating money ever unless I had so much money that I could get the business school renamed after me. Even then I'd probably rather buy a gulfstream or something.

Weddings are highly variable - wife's work friend wedding - probably going to be terrible. Your first friend from college to get married - probably going to be real fun unless anybody involved is religious.

That kind of guy, some idiot on the fringe who stumbles into two minutes of fame, is what I wanna see fiction or a TV show or something about college football centered on, not like a team or actual boosters and recruits and bagmen. A delusional guy who, through the inherent weirdness of this sport, accidentally turns out to be at the center of a scandal is a loving softball made for Danny McBride.

I nominate this guy

Well meaning idiot posted:

In 2012, Cicero was suspended for one year for violating the client-confidentiality trust by tipping off the then-football coach at Ohio State University, Jim Tressel, to a scandal involving his players in an email. The Columbus tattoo shop owner, Edward Rife, approached Cicero for legal advice regarding a federal investigation against Rife for drug trafficking. Cicero used the knowledge he obtained from Rife to turn around and tell Tressel that his players were selling and trading memorabilia to the shop owner in exchange for tattoos.

Dude ended up getting a bunch of death threats when he was trying to protect the program. He's now facing disbarment. He also was suspended for bragging about a sexual relationship with a judge that appointed him to represent a criminal client in a case that went before her.

Well they've only won the Big Ten once in five years! Hell Bert did it three times and once when he finished third in his division. So the answer is yes and now if you'll excuse me I have to go tweet insults at some recruits that dropped Ohio State from 2nd to 5th in their current top 5.

I'm disappointed everyone shits all over Russell athletic. Their T-shirts last for decades. My last two pairs of Nike shoes lasted one year at best and I have a typical slovenly American lifestyle.
