Is is a moral victory if the Cyclones lose but hold Iowa to under 10 thereby making the road to 25 points/game average even harder?

I'm trying to will a 3-2 El Assico into existence, just for the comedy factor, I don't even care who wins.

UVA's starting quarterback is out, so they are starting the freshman backup. UVA's starter was a Division II transfer, which is pretty indicative of the state of the program.

I’m open to the possibility that my memory of gameday 20 years ago is incorrect and I’m fine with them leaning into the spectacle, but yeah can we break down some film or something?

I know I'm remembering old ESPN in too much of a sunny light, but man I loved the old Gameday aesthetic. Cultured meatheads in suits breaking down games and trying to maintain order in front of an already drunk tailgate crowd. Now it's an over-caffeinated, self-aware, too-winky-by-half, quadruple-branded miasma.

I hate that Bear guy on Big Noon Kickoff. Apparently he whined his way into getting an on-air segment to pick teams... and he doesn't even give logical reasons for picking the teams he does. My dude, the whole point of talking about your picks on a tv show is to give a valid explanation for why you think that team will win.

He said he picked NU over CU, because a lot of people were picking CU. :psyduck: that's the dumbest reason ever to pick a team

I'm curious as to who has the best record against top 5 AP opponents now.

I don't believe in Sark, but I think there are a bunch of really good coaches who would look really bad with that stat next to their name?

The guy they replaced him with on GameDay seems much better. He does actual games, not degenerate gambler poo poo where all the games are Sun Belt vs. WAC like Bear does. Also new guy does over unders and prop bets.

That's probably James Franklin's record because he lost to Ohio State a bunch of times, especially when Penn State was quite mediocre his first two years and 2020-21.

Saban and Dabo probably have good records due to playoff wins. Coaches of top 5 teams will have decent records against other top 5 teams.

Yeah it’s like the Simpsons when it was clear the writers had been replaced by writers who grew up as fans of the show—so it’s all too clever by half. Like a copy of a copy of a copy.

GameDay has another picker using props now, and I can't tell if they want him to replace Lee Corso or if he's just really thirsty and trying to make it happen himself. So far he's put on a Colorado hat and pulled out a folding chair with the Texas logo on it.

They pulled the graphic because they hosed it up saying Corso picked Nebraska.
