Being in the Whack rear end Big 12 and it not even saving Arizona from hurtling towards the Jr leagues is a double blow but what're you gonna do.

Arizona to hire AD Desireé Reed-Francois amid budget woes.

Welp. She seemed good at Mizzou (not great) and but it's hard to argue with helping get football and NIL rolling. It's hard to feel good about someone leaving your SEC job for a school with a $175mm shortfall or whatever.

This is a very nice perk to keep the Big 12, ACC, and American together.

Also lol at Steve spurrier publicly being like “I don’t know what the gently caress up with the gators”

Yeah that was kinda :stare: but hell it’s likely going to be really tough along with that schedule next year for the Gatas. Like Napier lost a bet with the league office.

I had three burgers while I was in Switzerland:

The Beau-Rivage Palace in Lausanne. This one feels like cheating because literally everything I ate there was practically the best version of it possible.

Funky Claude's Bar in the Hotel Fairmont Le Montreux Palace. They were very simple mini burgers, but I could have eaten a thousand of them. I'll admit that I only half remember this because it was during the jazz festival and I was already drunk.

Holy Cow in Zürich. It is my understanding that there are a number of these. It was more in line with a fast causal restaurant and when put in that context, it was definitely better than what you'd get in the same kind of place in the US. The only place that seems to actually know what barbecue sauce is in the whole of Europe. It was during Züri Fäscht, so getting anything to eat in the first place felt like an achievement.

I went to write some of these places down on a someday-maybe list and I realized I have Beau-Rivage hotel already on my Switzerland list, because you posted about it some time ago. Do not let me down Sash!

I didn't realize it was as big a deal as it is, wiki says there's 78 div 1 teams. I assumed it was like mens gymnastics (12 div 1 teams) or rugby which I assume is about the same.

I didn’t think there were a lot of wrestlers on a D I team. So ends up not being a lot of student athletes.

Iowa State plays 9 conference games and we still play Iowa every year. I'd have to lose the Iowa game, even if it means we essentially never play any other P5 teams, but I don't really care, I'd rather keep the Iowa game. It's our last rivalry game still around since Mizzou left for the SEC. Frankly, I don't see why Kentucky couldn't keep it up. They really want to replace it with like a MAC or Sun Belt team?

I don't miss games in Ames in late November, but I do miss throwing this thing out on the field to be won:

SEC Throwback Logos.

Auburn, LSU and Mizzou apparently hired the same person to make their logos at some point.



Perhaps Texas, too.

This Vols logo is amazing. How throwback is it? It feels like a late '60s early '70s one to me but probably way older.
