i'd say that the Big 10/SEC challenge should be a thing in football (ala the Big Ten/ACC or Big 12/SEC in basketball), but the Big 10 would never allow it because it would basically guarantee the top teams in the Big Ten would get losses before the season starts, making it harder to get them into the playoffs

There are a fair number of B1G/SEC bowl games, so that kinda counts

I dunno, last time OSU played an SEC team, they did pretty well.

EDIT: Now ACC on the other hand...

On the other hand we are going to beat Nebraska and Northwestern the next two weeks and they will rank us going into the Penn State game where we will get beaten by roughly 80 points and it will be cited as a "quality win against a ranked opponent" for Penn State.

quote:

A landlord has filed a lawsuit alleging former West Virginia University football coach Dana Holgorsen and his ex-wife owe two months of back rent and fees for cleaning and repairs.

It says the home was rented to Candice Holgorsen for $2,500 a month, that back rent is owed for July and August 2019 and nearly $20,000 is owed for cleaning and repairs.

$20,000 in cleaning in repairs will cover like 3 lightbulbs and some fresh paint according to most landlords.

Last place I rented was in Australia and there the government holds your rental deposit and the land lord has to send a bill to them for charges. They end up nickel and dimming the poo poo out of you, but it means that at least the line item prices are reasonable.

I had the displeasure of dealing with Holgorsen a lot at WVU and I could absolutely buy him being an energetic alcoholic who destroys a bunch of poo poo.

I lived in a house for like 7 years with several roommates. Upon moving out, we did a serious deep cleaning of the carpets prior to moving out and the landlord took our whole deposit to replace the carpets. Even though the damage was due to normal wear and tear.

I had a landlord itemize 'vacuuming under appliances' because I had to use roach dust because she wouldn't keep up with basic pest control. She also charged me for not cleaning under the grout seal she put over mildew before I moved in. :suicide:

Landlords are nearly uniformly terrible people.

I had a run of pretty good ones. The last four places I've rented were taken care of and I got all of my deposits back. One I even lucked out because they sold the building to a developer who wanted to demolish and rebuild. Under VA law, they had a pay me a relocation fee. That was awesome.

But those college and 20s ones ugh.

We bought a house two months ago, so the renting days are over. Our mortgage is less than the rent we were paying, but that down payment oof.

Every apartment has paid everything back. The three private places I rented had scummy landlords.

I had one keep utilities in her husband's name (I was too young to realize they were probably scamming for primary residency tax rate and thought "COOL one check per month") then forgot to pay the bill so I came home without electricity. She tried to strongarm us into paying it AGAIN with another check and I told her we'd turn her in for tax fraud. That was a fun time.

The one with the weird itemized nonsense was a stopgap duplex while I was in school and then later slamming money in the bank for a down payment. We had a rat in our attic and instead of calling an exterminator she dropped off a bag of rat poison and a trap on the porch. I told her to nut up and call a professional it wasn't my responsibility. At the end of the day I decided the 350 she charged me for 20 minutes of vacuuming and resealing her grout was worth never interacting with her again. What a oval office.

Yeah mine is in great shape, the only thing we've really done so far is paint a few rooms and stain a deck. You just spend so much to buy all the stuff you need to do basic upkeep, especially when it's your first one and you don't already have all that poo poo.

Also, handy tip for anyone: if you're stuck wandering around looking for something, just look it up on their website. It gives the aisle and bay # where it's located (just be sure you select the store you're in)
