You got that right. Surprised that some horse DE or LB didn't nail him with some rough shit after that.
Deion I'm on Freon better warn his kid to knock it off.

The rowtheboaters gagged away a 21 point fourth quarter lead against Northwestern and get walked off in OT.

Marcus Freeman: it was a tough decision. BCS elimination or give them 1/2 yard closer to the goal line.
Lol.
The gofer-NU box score. Lol too, gofs.

Nice attempt at a walk back. Lol.

Buffs down 21 zip to the Trojans 5 seconds into the 2nd qtr.
And a nice response to make it 21-7.

Northwestern gives by Pedo State a game.

Buffs finally got going in the 2nd half but that hole was too deep to get out of. They need much better O line play and better D. They will be lucky to have a winning record in PAC 13 games, conference teams are improved.
But "Deion I'm on Freon" will keep yapping.
2 winnable games up next, next week vs ASU and Stanford after that. Rest of schedule will be very tough .

So are you a Williams believer? #1 pick? If you were the Bears GM, that who you’d take?

I have no clue if there is some guy at New Mexico State or somewhere who has a bazooka and skills. And I never would have picked Stroud, that's for sure....
My superficial analysis based on the 1st half:
Looks like he has a nice arm. Tonight he has thrown some balls up for his receivers to go up to pull down, which is concerning. Thought he may have held the ball a little too long on a couple of plays early. He looked like he panicked in the face of the rush, which is also concerning since it is against a team who does not have equal talent to USC. He settled down. Will see how he looks in the 2d half.
-
Also looks like he moves well in the pocket. But this is not a good performance for him tonight given the numbers.
-
Some questionable decision making, but he had one play where he was on the run and flicked his wrist and zoomed a pass. That was impressive.
-
I don’t quite get the Williams hype

Heard a woman on the radio saying Drake Maye is the best quarterback in the class, but what the fuck could

Colorado has multiple problems. Offensive line is not good, QB Sanders is having to scramble big time to avoid sacks. Defensive backs are weak, not good tacklers, like the head coach when he played. Deion had problems just making a tackle on the tackling dummy at practice in his day.
Stanford isn't a good team but definitely took advantage of CU weaknesses after halftime last night.
-
I'm just glad i went to bed at halftime. There's not enough depth and having to rely on some freshmen. Shedeur and Hunter are the real deal though.

Do Illini finally cover a spread today? 0-6

Stanford, with 88 plays, had no turnovers.
We'll never run 88 again but we sure do need 0 turnovers today, and the rest of the year.
The Buffs with 17 penalties ? Yikes.

The thought of Justin Fields throwing passes to Marvin Harrison Jr and Brock Bowers next year is very exciting. But Poles will cut Fields lose to cover his own ass and extend his leash.

Why is this stupid take in this thread? Fields refuses to pass the ball. Ergo 63 sacks in the 17 games being bandied about by the Cultists.

Not surprised that Colorado is failing. Their offensive line is weak.QB is constantly trying to get away from pass rush. No run game. Coach loud mouth has a ton of work to do to produce consistent winning. You lose after a 29-0 halftime lead, really screwed up coaching.

Yep. Game-day coaching has been horrific. Clock management, abysmal. Maybe Prime should do the Ron Zook thing where he wear's a headset but it's not connected to anything. Bring in the players an get out of your coaches way. On the plus side, if there's a 5 win team to go bowling, guess who?

Franklin is no genius on the sidelines but hopefully he comes up with enough today to outdo whomever Michigan has calling the shots.
And the judge hearing Michigan's appeal of the suspension says 'not today, I'm busy til next Friday.'

What a moron move in Utah-Washington game. DB for WA intercepts a pass which would have gone for a TD but hot dogged it and dropped the ball down at the 2. An o-lineman for Utah jumped on the ball at the 1 with other WA players running right by the ball. WA did get a safety on the next play. But instead of being up by 12, only up 7. Young man should be happy I'm not his coach.

It's my understanding that Fisher wasn't coaching up a lot of talent in College Station. Bert appears to be able to coach up lesser talent.
Until we can recruit against the likes of Bama, Ga, the Seminoles or tOSU I'll go with Familly and coaching up.
Fisher will probably be available again in several years. Maybe he'll be a fit then. Lol.

WI fan that I went to the WI game with came over in the 3rd quarter. At the end of the 3rd before leaving, he mentioned that Illinois was in the same spot it was against WI before blowing that lead. History repeated itself, somewhat

The back 7 is a far cry from last year's but maybe Henry isn't the answer
-
I felt like it was hard to know what’s Henry and what’s the personnel, but in the last three games we’ve seen the most ineffective late game defense I can ever remember seeing. Considerably worse than anything we’d seen earlier in the games from the D. Against teams with normally anemic offenses. Pretty tough for Henry to hide from that.
-
The alleged problem, according to people who claim to be in the know, is that Henry is a good recruiter.

Side note- Isaiah Williams is only a Junior and might come back. Could be an impressive season next year. Need to finish this season out strong and get those extra practices to build on.

I don't remember his name from HS. 247 lists him as a 5'10" 190lb 3 star.
Juice's possible successor some day ?

Some LB for WS returned 2 fumbles for scores? I checked score on TV, 1 minute left in half and 42-7. Just laughed. Coach Slime Time looked like he was having fun. He better start recruiting CA high school talent.
And Wazzu had lost 6 straight!

"A Michigan booster at least partially funded the alleged sign-stealing scheme spearheaded by ex-Wolverines staffer Connor Stalions that has rocked
;D ;D ;D the football program, according to Yahoo Sports. Michigan linebackers coach Chris Partridge, who was fired Friday morning, is also alleged to have participated in destroying computer evidence after the scandal came to light, according to the report."
lol, after the NCAA alleged that Harbaugh wasn't exactly forthcoming with them resulting in his previous suspension they now allege evidence was destroyed in the sign stealing scheme. Fortunately, Harbaugh knows nothing about the scheme.

Their last 5 games are wins..
at UTEP
at LaTech
Middle Tn
at W Ky
and the best, at Auburn.
All of those schools have had some decent teams over the years.

I took my son to the La Tech game in 2012. It was a Saturday night, beautiful weather. La Tech blasted us 52-24.
One of those Tim Beckman head scratchers.
-
That La Tech was good. I think they had one of the best offenses in the nation that year. Averaging over 50 points per game or something. I also remember them getting fucked out of a bowl game. But they won me a boat load of $$$ against Virginia that year.
-
From the Wiki, some good stuff on LaTech. Including Illinois losing to Skip Holtz in the 2014 Heart of Dallas Bowl.
And on a couple of former LaTech QBs ...
"Lambright also coached quarterback Terry Bradshaw. Initially, Bradshaw was second on the depth chart at quarterback behind Phil Robertson, who would later become famous as the inventor of the Duck Commander duck call and television personality on the A&E program Duck Dynasty.[14][15] Bradshaw caused a media frenzy on account of his reputation of being a football sensation from nearby Shreveport.[16][17] Robertson was a year ahead of Bradshaw and was the starter for two seasons in 1966 and 1967, and chose not to play in 1968.[18] As Robertson put it: "I'm going for the ducks, you [Terry] can go for the bucks."[19]"
The duck hunting worked out ok for Phil.

Yeah, lol I didn't know that at the time. I had access to free tickets, so I figured I would take my son to see a game the Illini should win. I mean hell, it's La Tech.
Yeah, that didn't age well. My son got his first taste of the shitty atmosphere in that place when things go south.

And today's fishwrap suggests that the gofs, with the highest APR, will be the only 5-7 team to go bowling.
It's been rumored, not here tho 🤣, that some academics tout the graduation rates of the football program when evaluating the 'successes' of the head football coach.
In a heartwarming move, the NCAA will apparently allow newly transitioning but heretofore ineligible for Div 1 bowl games James Madison and Jacksonville State to be chosen to play in bowl games, thereby reducing the available APR slots from 3 to 1.

Tim Brewster resigns as Colorado’s TE coach. Didn’t even know he was there. Maybe Bielema should give him a call.

If Brewster's got any eligibility left suit him up. He was always open in Mike White's offense.

I understand the perfect season argument but I'm still going with the 4 I think will happen.
What would you prefer, Michigan vs Bama or Michigan vs FSU ?
There are 4 teams in the cfp. There are 5 major conferences and, heaven forbid, in years where ND gets a spot then 2 of the Power 5 teams get left out.
And I'm not in the we'll just expand the field to fix the issue camp.

Speaking of bowls, what are the powers that be going to do about the bowl picture for next year and beyond ?
The Big10 has 9 ? bowl tie ins. With the addition of the 4 Pac12 teams, the little sisters of the poor in the conference are getting moved down 2-3 pegs in the bowl pecking order. Will 6-6 teams get left out or will 1 get picked as an at large team for the Famous Toastery Bowl or the LA Bowl hosted by Gronk ?
Or will those go to 7-5 teams ?
Lofl

That CFP is some bullshit. No way you leave a power-5 school like FSU out when they’re undefeated. Even with their QB down, they won. That defense is championship caliber. I’m not even a Florida State fan, but that’s straight up bullshit. If I was Florida state I’d sue their ass.

It’s pretty fucking corrupt. Obvious that the mothership and the SEC are in bed fucking each other.

“Brutal?” From what I can tell FSU beat two ranked teams. No one above 13th. Unfortunate though, it does suck to go undefeated and not make it. I think the 12 team playoff will be great.

And I get what you're saying. There are 5 Power 5 teams and sometimes ND to consider. It's hard for somebody else to get in.
There are 4 spots. Getting screwed is built into the system.
I would guess that Bama is the better team and if the committee wanted the best 4, it's Bama.
If the committee wants to prioritize undefeated over conference with a loss, it's FSU.
I would prefer the 4 best. If they chose FSU, you can't argue with 13-0.
-
That CFP is some bullshit. No way you leave a power-5 school like FSU out when they’re undefeated. Even with their QB down, they won. That defense is championship caliber. I’m not even a Florida State fan, but that’s straight up bullshit. If I was Florida state I’d sue their ass.
Looks like I was AOTC again

Minnesota gets a bowl game...way to go Illini. Higher standards and Minnesota still has a higher graduation rate apparently.
Not sure which you’d have bitched about more. Getting in at 5-7 or getting left out at 5-7.

Both. But if you are going to have higher standards, it should get you something instead of what we have. But hey, we are lucky to have Bielema, so I have been told here.
I'll note that maybe Jasn would appreciate talk of Illini blowing 4th quarter leads in his quest for more Illini sports talk. Plenty of fodder there

The whiny bitch QB at USC is not playing ìn their bowl game. I hate them with a passion, having lived in So Cal for 44 years. Would be kinda funny if they won their bowl game without Whiny Williams after the losing streak with him.

If I was going to put FSU in I would take out Tx.
They did beat Bama early, but Tx also lost to Ok and Louisville is a better team than Ok St when looking at the conference championship games
-
It would be a major screw job to take Texas out when they beat Alabama by 10 in Tuscaloosa.
-
Losing by 4 to 12th ranked Oklahoma in a huge rivalry game shouldn’t be a disqualifying point.

I agree, but somebody was going to get screwed. If the committee wanted the 4 best, I think they have the best 4 teams playing

Someone was going to get screwed. The right team got screwed. Unfortunately for them.

No more crying about 5th ranked teams that didn’t get in, and the 8-12th ranked programs will just be happy to be there.

Yeah 2 of the 3 games last year were absolute dong whippings. Now throw 8 more teams in, most of which are a considerable step down from the top 3-4 teams, and, well…
-
With the 12 team format the top 4 teams get a bye. #5 will be bitching that they deserved the bye.
The committee will still be ranking the 6 highest rated conference champs for seeds #1-#4.
The 12 team format applied to this year would have Liberty vs FSU and if FSU was to win, they would face Bama. FSU would be bitching.
And a #5 will eventually lose to a #12.
I still think the 4 best teams are playing. Michigan vs a 2nd string FSU QB is not the same as Michigan-Bama.

For sure. I’m sure Bielema told him he wasn’t gonna be the lead back next year as well. Going there is understandable with the coaches too, it just feels dirty. I don’t mean in a cheating way, it’s in a “how can you claim to love Illinois” and “do that and go THERE” sense.

Is this a thing someone’s said about Caleb Williams?
I think most of the people you’ve argued against have said they don’t care what kind of car he drives, not that I think that matters to you at all.
I particularly love the car thing because of how much you made fun of the opposite thing being a deal with Trubisky. I don’t care if my QB even owns a car. I care whether he can be consistently good on the field.
-
I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with having a fancy car. But I would investigate to see if money changed him (if I was thinking about taking him 1st).
-
I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with having a fancy car. But I would investigate to see if money changed him (if I was thinking about taking him 1st).
Sure, that's what they did with Trubisky.
He drove a Camry after all - obviously a humble, hard-nosed guy who only cared about winning and leading, can't go wrong with a guy like that.
Is it possible that it just doesn't matter what car he drives or what he spends the money he earned on? If it was the old days pre-NIL and he bought a nice car with his first NFL paycheck, would we even know about it?
At the core of it is this: you think Justin Fields should be kept, so you're looking for something to criticize about the guy a lot of people want to get to replace him. That's it. There is no reason whatsoever to care about the car he's driving or what he does with his money to any rational person anywhere, just like there wasn't when they did it with Trubisky - but you want to undercut him to keep Justin Fields, so you talk about his car and him crying and painting FUCK on his nails and all the shit OTHER THAN his play.
It's pretty transparent, obviously.
-
As long as he’s not spending his money on “massages” like Watson or prostitutes, or drugs, I don’t give a fuck.
-
I would be diving in on whether or not his work habits, attitude, or decision making has been impacted by money. Could easily be a nothingburger. But rest assured I’d be asking those questions.
-
And that's why you're not a sports executive. You're more worried about this sort of thing than how well a guy actually plays.
Like literally, how can you even type this with a straight face given how many times you've staunchly defended mediocre play from the actual guy playing QB for the Bears right now? You don't care if a guy performs on game day but you're concerned about his car?
-

1. Do you have a valid driver's license?
2. Do you have a child car seat in your car?
3. What is your favorite Justin Fields game?
4. What is your favorite Justin Fields commercial?
5. So you eat at Dunkin' like Justin Fields?
6. Will you wear a visor like Justin Fields?
7. Do you like Bulls games as much as Justin Fields does?

😂 I laughed…
And I played WR in HS and would not have made that catch. Falling backwards away from the ball would’ve been a very difficult catch. The surprise factor of where it would be falling would be hard to concentrate and judge. Very good hand/eye coordination for Mooney to still almost make a grab. His momentum was going away from the ball and still reached out and almost snagged it.

The Projectile Vomiting Debate Method was more clever and factual.

Spark, anyone thinking about taking Caleb Williams #1 is going over not just his play, but his personality and general makeup with a fine tooth comb. Unbelievably naive to think otherwise.
-
They make these kids parade in front of scouts in their underwear for Christ’s sake. You think they’re not diving into every possible detail? Naive.

To be called naive by a guy who is very concerned about one dudes car but doesn’t care about the other dude’s performance on the field.
Couldn’t write it.
I don’t doubt that bad GMs are worried about shit like this, it’s how you end up justifying the Trubisky pick because he drove a Camry. Good GMs are more concerned with how a dude plays, which it’s become extremely clear isn’t even a factor to you
If they keep Fields because of Caleb Williams’ car they deserve the mediocrity they’ll continue to get at the most important position. Would hope if they pass on the QBs it’s for reasons at least tangentially related to football.

You are so fucking full of shit, shit you do exactly the same shit you accuse me of doing I never said I was VERY COnCErNED. There you go making me defend shit I didn’t say again. all I said it was that I would take a closer look at his priorities and if getting paid, has changed any of that, as would any NFL scout. Trust me good Scouts, don’t just look at the tape they’re evaluating every aspect of the player and his make up
-
Arguably the best player in the draft fell all the way to number 10 last year because of concerns about his reliability and maturity
-
Do you think a 21-year-old with newfound money and a Ferrari isn’t a candidate to maybe lose focus or do something dumb then you are beyond naïve
-
And again before you go twisting my words oh my God can’t draft him he has a Ferrari that’s not at all what I am fucking saying

I don’t think it’s controversial to say anyone evaluating this decision who continually brings up one guy’s car and never mentions the other guy’s play isn’t a very good scout.
You are far, far more likely to bring up the car thing than to discuss Justin Fields’ play without making excuses. Far more likely. The standards you have for the two guys are just miles apart and everyone can obviously see it.

I don’t think he’s any more a candidate for that than a 24 year old getting his first big NFL contract no, but the difference is if the second guy buys a nice car none of us ever even hear about it. I have no clue what kind of car Daniel Jones bought with his new money and it doesn’t factor into my evaluation of him in any way. Same with Mahomes or Drake Maye or CJ Stroud. It’s not even tangentially related to his ability to perform as a football player.
I am not naive enough to think this is really about Caleb Williams at all. If the Bears didn’t have the first pick I just have no doubt you would have far fewer stretchy “concerns” about Caleb Williams that are unrelated to his ability to be a good NFL QB.
Just like the ranting about Mooney not catching the Hail Mary, this is about Justin Fields.
-
I am not actually a scout
Yeah and Justin Fields didn’t play at even a Hall of Fame level this weekend
-
I am not a scout. I’m not scouting him. All I’m saying is if I were a scout, I’d be dotting my Is and crossing my Ts on his off field habits. And I’m sure he’s always observing the speed limit in his Ferrari.

Spark, that’s great that you’re apparently a very trusting person, but I promise you scouts and GMs aren’t just hand waving $250k purchases on cars with 700 horsepower. It be a would dereliction of duty not to inquire about how money has affected him.
-
All I’ve ever tried to say is that I would check to make sure he’s the same guy he was before the money. I don’t think that’s controversial or hot takey. And I never once said his car would be the determining factor in whether or not I drafted him.

QB Bryson Barnes is in the transfer portal, but I think he played anyway.

Hilarious that Tempo thinks he pwned Williams. He probably saw this take on The Twitter by Parkins or Bernstein.

And some of the throws he made were atrocious. His stat line looks a lot better than his throws.
Merry Christmas to him, and the other Wildcats, tho.

So that’s a team Caleb Williams has had mixed results against. A team that lost to NU.
Might need to watch a bit more college fb. Caleb's going first pick no matter who's picking. Bears would be crazy to pass it up.

Two weeks ago you were “roll it back with Fields.” Seems you’re all over the place here.

Bowl season has not been good, other than Mizzou and Ole Miss playing well.
Too many opt outs.

Maybe they can start a new tier of bowl games. Any teams with 3-5 opt outs on both sides of the ball can play in the games prior to Christmas.
FSU vs UTSA in the Frisco Bowl. Strike that, UTSA won. Make it FSU vs Marshall in the Frisco Bowl.

Uhhhhh, yep.
That team/university bitches and threatens lawsuits, then loses by 60! Happy New Year to FSU.

Again, can’t understand why anyone would want to watch non-playoff football. If a team is any good, the best 3-5 players are probably sitting out.

Kirby Smart is right. The bowl system/college football is broken. Transfers, transfer portal, and opt outs, have become insane and is ruining it.

I would agree. College football is currently sacrificing long-term demand in favor of meeting short-term demands, and has been for some time. NIL is a really great thing on the whole but you need to encourage long-term deals on both the scholarship and NIL side. It's ridiculous to try and run a sports league with one-year free agency and that's what college football is essentially doing right now.
College football only works when fans are willing to invest in season tickets and then traveling to see an 8-4 team in the Gator Bowl. I'm not sure the current game will maintain that aside from the 15 or so programs that benefit from having a national pro league.

If you think the Mizzou/OSU game is superior entertainment to the NFL you’re nuts.

The Big 10 embarrassing itself. Trash football league.
Oregon/Washington much needed

Well this just means michigan is probably going to win now that Dom gave Bama the kiss of death 😂

😂 fumble Michigan ball now

Watching Milroe reminds me of how Zook used Juice. I can’t believe Alabama can’t find a better QB than this RB playing QB

Michigan d looks gassed right now

Michigan going to lose. Bummer.

It won’t matter but I hope AP voters vote Georgia #1

Good news and bad news in this game. Good news, one team loses. Bad news, one team wins. Hate both with a passion. Michigan with those stupid ass helmet emblem and Alabama with Nick Satan as coach.
-
Well this should be interesting
-
Special Ed teams lol jesus
-
Lol Michigan is so dumb and terrible. Nice muff

Bahaha Dom with the kiss of death as usual 😂😂😂😂

Michigan still sucks as does the Big 10.
Although if UW beats Texas it will be an all Big 10 title game
Georgia is my #1

Good news, Nick Satan loses.
Bleep you, Harbaugh.

Washington is insanely good would not surprise me to see them win it all. I watch a lot of p12 football out west here and they do it on both sides of the ball. Georgia is still probably the best team but they couldn't get it done against bama.
-
Yeah, I ain’t rooting for Bama against anyone except Notre Dame or Brian Kelly. And maybe not even Notre Dam e anymore now that Kelly is gone.

Hope Harbaugh comes to the Bears. Imagine what he could do with Fields since he made Kaepernick a serviceable QB

It would defy all odds. He doesn’t fit the McCaskey “profile” (difficult personality), the McCaskeys have never shelled out big money for a HC so that would be a complete anomaly.
He and Kevin Warren reportedly do not like each other. Poles isn’t ceding the kind of control Harbaugh would demand. Harbaugh to the Bears would defy all odds, but yeah, he played here once so there’s that.
-
Harbaugh would be a perfect fit for the Raiders. Marc Davis would give him everything he wants. Just a matter of can he afford him.

All big ten final!

How can a team like Iowa struggle to score 10 points a game and these teams make offense look so easy?
The spread is impossible to defend if your QB just doesn’t completely suck and can scramble

UW should have taken a knee instead of running a play. RB gets hurt and TX still has 45 secs left. Should have had at most 8 seconds
-
How does a big school with a solid football tradition like Washington have such cheap looking uniforms for the CFP? I loved their unis years ago, especially in the 90s when it seemed like every player had the big shoulder pads and neck rolls.

This is bedlam
-
what a series of retarded decisions by the UW coach jesus
-
Washington had this game won. That’s too close to overturn.
Texas gonna have 3 shots from the 12 to win

If UW kneeled and punted, TX would have gotten the ball back with less than 10 seconds left!

Next year is a 12 team playoff but Michigan’s schedule is crazy hard:
Texas
USC
At Washington
Oregon
At Ohio State
I’d say win or lose Harbaugh is done. He’s not gonna stay with the easy street Michigan has been on for years ending
-
Firmly in the "Anyone but Alabama" camp. Should be a fun final.
-
We'll see what Pe and his OL do vs the defensive front from that team up north.
Bama did not look like the Bama we've been seeing but the sign stealers can do that to a team.
Washington should be in their white unis if that helps.

Alabama needs to buy themselves a new O-line and consider sending Tommy Rees back to the minors.

Thought I heard Texas had a great DLine.

This is a pretty tight nit to pick - if they get a first down the game is over, not running a play to avoid an injury time stoppage is a bit of a stretch. I guess the real reason not to run a play is in case you fumble.
The real mistake came on the previous drive where they got their last FG. On 3rd and goal from the ten, they called a pass play, and Penix threw the ball away when there was no open man. That was 30+ seconds there - they either need to run the ball or tell Penix that he needs to have an open man or go down in bounds.

I disagree that taking the knee, instead of having the guy with the bad foot run the ball, is a nitpick there.

If you fall for the “gotta have a quarterback on a rookie contract” narrative, which is lazy in this case. Lazy analysis. The Bears are not a slave to the rookie deal. They have money. That was the whole point of the tank. But people who fall for basic tropes dont get it.

Show me which team “won the Super Bowl because of the rookie contract.”
In pretty much every case, the team was already built. Besides maybe the Mannings, I don’t see any teams that weren’t built after the fact.” Like say the current Jaguars.

So 6 in 30 years, if you count Wentz. And Mahomes, Beady, and Roethlisberger landed on a ready to win teams.
-
Fields’ contract the next two years is not prohibitive. Might not even be 3-4 years if he stayed that long. You could franchise him for two years
-
Unless the rookie QB is an immediate upgrade (huge if, no matter what you guys say) they’d actually be eating into a year or two window in which the team can win.

Nick Saban retiring.

Bret Bielema looking at Tuscaloosa real estate?!
-
Okay for real I imagine they'll throw money at Dabo and then Sarkisian or Lanning. If they hire Kiffin, they get what's coming to them. Outsiders like the UW coach need to ignore the call if it's made bc that opportunity is more radioactive than taking the Notre Dame job.
-
Yeah I’d avoid that job because the expectations are gonna be unrealistic following Saban. I’m sure some egomaniac will want it but you’re just asking for failure. Even winning 10+ games a year isn’t safe there without championships.
-
Kiffin would be great. It would keep them very hate-able. Sark's a decent guy and he'd be wise to avoid. Mike Vrabel anyone?

Dumbass move. He's leaving a lifetime contract gig in a gorgeous place for a job in a relative shithole where they will fire you for going 9-3 regularly.
-
He’ll still get a really good job again even if he fails at Alabama. And by fails, I mean gets fired after going 9-3. He’s gonna make a boatload of cash and be a king. No reason not to take that job.

I have no idea what should be done now that the cat is out of the bag. Maybe a little foresight would have helped tho it appeared to be poorly thought out from the beginning.
Maybe the school that gets the player should provide some compensation to the school that the player left.
How about a 2nd string QB and cash to the player's previous school. Lol

Sure, why not.
Stop spending money on recruiting HS kids and if they attend the school give them money, based on performance incentives, after the season
-
There are viable solutions to the transfer portal stuff. The most obvious one - that for certain reasons seems to be a non-starter - is that you let schools pay players under multi-year contracts and give both sides legal recourse.
You could also view scholarships more like a salary cap and assess penalties against cap space for transfers in or out. Or just make every scholarship a minimum of 2 years regardless of whether the kid is still there - that would at least encourage schools to invest in kids beyond a season.
-
Put me in the camp of not really giving a shit about the landscape and giving more of a shit about our administration and coaching staffs to navigate and win in whatever landscape we find ourselves in.

Any open investigations into Michigan football can now be closed. The powers that be found their man. Herm Edward's 26-20 record and national championship are toast.
"As Arizona State prepares to shift from the Pac-12 Conference to the Big 12, it will do so with significant baggage.
On Friday, the NCAA Infractions Committee announced the athletic department faces four years of probation, scholarship reductions and recruiting restrictions for violations that occurred during Herm Edwards’ tenure as football coach.
The Level I violations also include fines, a 2023 season self-imposed football postseason ban, a vacation of records for contests that ineligible student-athletes competed in and the dissociation with an involved booster for five years."

The locals certainly are not. Some stats from his first season:
% increase in September sales at CU's on-line store 2,544%
68,000 applications for admission to the University (a record).
Prime's value to CU during the first month of the season $280 million (USA Today).
First ESPN Gameday in Boulder in 27 years.
Granted, the on-field product has been over-hyped but it's still a marked improvement from where he began. The hotels, restaurants, and bars are packed. His players go to class. They don't get into off-field trouble (everyone's looking), and the parents seem to love him. I'm guessing that 90% of FBS schools would welcome this kind of impact. Even if he leaves, Boulder will be in a better place.

That’s all fair. But the on field product has been way over-hyped.

Another ass showing from Jalon Daniels. Was Xavier Scott in the UNLV secondary?

Would have much preferred a good KU showing there.

Yeah we don't really need them to be a 3-9 crap team we barely beat at home. Their OC should probably be fired now.

Jalon Daniels sucks…
And yes, their OC needs fired immediately…

Seems like Kansas might be remembering that they suck at football.

Yeah, that's kinda scummy. Pro guys aren't even quite that egregious about it. Maybe someone holds out in training camp or something, but I don't recall a pro athlete talking about his fantasy points in season and determining that he needs more money now or he's out.
That's pretty fucked up actually. That kid fucked himself.

I mean, nobody has heard of this kid. Lol, he has bad representation.

Eh. Doesn't matter at this point. Kid's basically untouchable. Nobody wants to deal with that shit. There is no way he's worth the trouble.

So, I’m seeing that UNLV verbally promised this dipshit 100 grand. He was like Durrr OK and went, then was getting like 3 grand per month instead.
PA, this kid have any recourse? Sounds like no written contract in play…

Sure. He can try and prove the existence of an oral contract or maybe even an implied contract given there appears to have been communications about the payment schedule. He will also need to somehow attempt to mitigate his damages (offset his losses).
-
Seems challenging if there’s nothing in writing tho, right?
-
How do you prove the existence of an oral contract?
-
There sounds like there were communications between his agent and someone at the school because the payments were not being made on schedule. If those are in writing, that could be proof of the existence of the contract and its terms. Other than that, it is his word versus the school's "word."
-
If there’s not, it’s a very bad look for the kid in that instance…
-
What I read, is they can't make a formal agreement until the athlete enroll.
UNLV lied to the kid.
-

Maybe he also has a fraudulent inducement or a regular fraud claim then.

Feel the excitement- Nebraska Purdue scoreless at half after Purdue missed a FG and Nebraska missed one and had 2 blocked
-
PISCATAWAY, N.J. — At first, there was confusion.
Washington’s sideline erupted. Sophomore Lance Holtzclaw, who blocked Rutgers’ 38-yard field-goal attempt, signaled no good as he bounded toward the sideline. Junior Maurice Heims, who came up with the recovery, flipped the ball to teammate Jacob Bandes while the Rutgers fans groaned in frustration.
But as the referees huddled to discuss the late penalty, Washington’s confusion became disbelief while the 54,079 Rutgers fans gathered for their “Blackout” game began to roar.
Illegal substitution. Redshirt freshman Vincent Holmes had briefly entered the field of play to celebrate with his teammates before Heims recovered the ball. He was right in front of the referee, who immediately threw his flag. First down for the Scarlet Knights. On the very next play, Rutgers scored a touchdown.
“I grabbed (Holmes), and said, ‘You’re a freshman, and you just had a freshman moment,’” coach Jedd Fisch said. “These are things … that just can’t happen.”

When Lee Corso was coaching Indiana, they took a 7-6 lead on Ohio State in the first quarter. Corso called a time out and the team posed for a photo with the scoreboard in the background. It was the first time in 25 years that Indiana led OSU.

GT should have gone for two in the first OT

GT should have gone for two in the first OT
That was my immediate thought. The adage is to play to win on the road and play for the tie at home.
But after our 9 OT game the rules were changed to require going for 2 after the 1st OT, so I talked myself into just tie it up and take your chances going for the required 2 in the next OT.
Ga Tech had lost old mo and ended up squandering a 400 yard 5 td, every Ga Tech td, performance by the qb.
I think the HC called for an Uber driver to get back to Atlanta instead of getting on the bus.

ho hum ho hum
another mediocre team gets bailed out by the refs

If Tech wins we probably end up playing Georgia and REALLY getting slaughtered

Meh. They still make the playoff and don’t have to prep up for Oregon
They lose their chance at a bye but probably get a home game in which they are easily favored.
South Carolina beats Clemson. If that knocks out Clemson from the playoffs, does the SEC get another team? If so is it Alabama or South Carolina that just beat Clemson?
How do you put in 2 loss OSU over 1 loss Indiana? Feels like Indiana is in. How do you rank OSU/PSU/Indiana if PSU loses to Oregon and also has 2 losses?
The playoff committee is really gonna have to rely on “look, if you were the first team out you would have had no shot a couple years ago” - because this is gonna be gross
-
You put 2 loss OSU in because they caved Indiana’s face in, and they played a much tougher schedule.
-
You put 2 loss OSU in because they caved Indiana’s face in, and they played a much tougher schedule.
For example they played Michigan. At home. And lost. Indians beat them
The real point is - Indiana has to be in but some 2 loss teams will bitch
-
These 18 team conferences are a joke. Indiana probably gets smoked by PSU and Oregon but instead gets all sub 500 teams. SMU goes undefeated not playing the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th best teams in conference and squeaks by the 5th and 6th
The big 12 will have a 4 team tie for first and tiebreakers will come down to who wins between a couple of also rans to determine strength of schedule

Alabama is a 3 loss team. And didn’t have to play the #1 team in the country on the road. Which was a 1 point loss for OSU.

I only have one rule in life: 3 loss teams don’t get to complain about being left out of the playoffs. Actually, I lied; I have two rules. The other is don’t bet money that you don’t have on a dog race with an ex-girlfriend who happens to be a stripper (100 HQ2 bonus points for anyone who gets the reference).
And you also don’t get to complain about losing a spot to a team you lost to. Especially by 3+ TDs.

My original point was Ohio State has to be in - and if they are in, Indiana is also in. Indiana has one loss to what was until today the #2 team
They have a better resume than SMU or Miami in my view. The ACC should get one team
Now watch Indiana lose tonight

4 conference champs get 1st round byes, and one gets seeded #12.
A Big10 and SEC team will get 2 of the byes.
2 of the winners of SMU vs Clemson, Boise vs UNLV and Az St vs ISU will get byes. The other gets seeded #12.
With the current rankings, those 6 teams are ranked 8, 10, 16, 17, 18, 20.
There's a good chance that #10 and #15 in the current rankings will get byes.

Oregon, Ga, Tx, PSU are seeded 1-4. The 4 teams that have been top ranked teams get byes.
Conference champions who aren't in the top 4 get 1st round home games as their "reward".
Boise, Az St, Clemson and ND with the #8 seed are 5-8 and get 1st round home games vs SMU, Ind, Tn and tOSU.
PSU and Tx losing to Oregon and Ga > Boise and Az St beating a couple of teams that didn't have a top 20 win.

It was time for Brown to go. NC was probably down the pecking order in the college carousel. Have to admire them taking a swing at something different. I don’t see how Belichick can translate to college ball, but he commands respect and can probably put together a really good staff.

We lose our best O player and they lose their best D player. Think we need more opt-outs from them though.

Agreed.
Some may say that we want to play against their best players/team. Hogwash.
Let's get 10 wins.

Outside of KU (a game we won anyway) I’m not seeing a super major difference in non-conference schedules. I’m guessing you don’t get to choose which conference opponents you play.
-
We need to schedule like Indiana
We kinda did this year. We went 3-0 non-con.
We have no control over the Big10 schedule but getting the win over Michigan scheduled for the 100 year celebration was a great idea.
-
KU would be tougher than any of Indiana’s non-con opponents, but as you pointed out we beat them anyway; and they proved to be overrated.
-
Indiana would probably beat us by 10-12 points on a neutral field this year.
-
Probably. That has nothing to do with my point tho. So fuck off dipshit.
-
Ok.
-
Would be nice to see Notre Dame go down tonight, but doesn’t look like that will happen.
-
I never liked going to 12 teams.
Make the cfp 8 teams next year so we don't have games like the Hosers at ND. Do something, but fix this mess.
I didn't like Az State and Boise getting byes.
Notre Dame vs Bama would have been a better game

Lol you’re not going to eliminate blowouts no matter what you do. The last 6 national title games were blowouts. Including a 65-7 thriller just two years ago. You want to go back to voting for the champion? There’s nothing wrong with 12 teams. It gives more teams a chance to get in and that’s ultimately better for the sport. And better for teams like Illinois because PT and NIL can actually help level the playing field a bit.

Never said that.

I know you didn’t, but for Alabama to be deserving you’d have needed to expand the playoffs to 16 teams. Can’t put a 3 loss team in over a 1 loss team IMO.

Last night's game was a lousy game and the 1st 2 games today have a good chance of being the same.
None of it changes that I would have preferred a Hoosier win and won't be rooting for SMU or Clemson.

Again, a lot of the playoff games have been lousy for years. Often even in the marquee matchups. Accept the gift that programs like Illinois has been given. They actually have a chance to be semi-relevant.

I thought IU could win. They kinda got hosed having to go to South Bend. Their only loss was at tOSU. The domers lost at home to a bad NIU team.
-
I figured if they could lose to NIU they could lose to a decent team. Sounds like they are playing better than they did earlier in the year. I wouldn’t know, I don’t like watching Notre Dame. I tuned in when I heard NIU was giving them a game because I was hoping for the upset. I root for everyone over Notre Dame. I hate Alabama and I rooted for them big time in the title game years back.
-

I assume you're not the one who said IU might win. 😁

NIU did make it to the taters are yummy bowl!

I thought they had a chance. If NIU can win there, why not Indiana?

Games early in the season aren't necessarily an indicator of late season play.
ND may have been a little full of themselves after winning their opener at TAM. They got a little humility after NIU and didn't have much trouble after that.
The Hosers got whupped by a good tOSU defense. There was no reason not to expect the same vs a good ND defense.
-
Cold with up to 20 mph winds at Happy Valley.
The lions should be ok. Warm up the horses.

Normally every year, bowl games are an after thought, this year the after thought is....when do the ILLINI play again. Good for the team and Coach B.

Franklin gets lucky after being stooopid.

Too many blowouts. Let’s scrap the playoff system and vote for the champion. But…have the national championship team play itself! 1st string offense plays 2nd string defense and 1st string defense plays 2nd string offense. Everyone gets participation trophies at the end since they are all champions!
Most importantly, no blowouts!
-
I will admit, it’s tough to invite teams like IU and SMU when Alabama is sitting at home. But there has to be some reward (and punishment) for the regular season.
-
But my viewpoint is, if you aren’t solidly in the top 12, quit yer bitchin’ and take care of your business. You had your chance.

Basically showing there's limited reason to ever have a 12-team playoff IMO.
-
Disagree. They seeded poorly. Blowouts are part of the very fabric of college football. 19 of the 30 4 team playoff games were two score + games. This format will even the playing field over time and give programs like Illinois, Indiana, Colorado something to play for. It needs tweaking, but 12 teams is perfect IMO.
-
Boise and ASU should not have byes. Boise/Indiana, SMU/Tennessee, ND/Clemson, would have been much better matchups. Next year they need to seed according to ranking, not conference championships. Oregon’s reward for being the 1 seed? Ohio State! Should not have happened this way.

Mostly agree with this except conference titles certainly make regular season games more interesting. It was the most entertaining regular season that I recall.

Good thinkin
Something like this ?
Quote from: No one in Mn on December 09, 2024, 08:12:56 AM
What it should be ........
Oregon, Ga, Tx, PSU are seeded 1-4. The 4 teams that have been top ranked teams get byes.
Conference champions who aren't in the top 4 get 1st round home games as their "reward".
Boise, Az St, Clemson and ND with the #8 seed are 5-8 and get 1st round home games vs SMU, Ind, Tn and tOSU.
-
AP #1 Ga and #2 Ga get AP #6 tOSU and #3 ND.
AP #4 Tx gets #10 ASU and AP #5 PSU gets #8 Boise.
Good job. 👏👏

Toledo vs Pitt in the 4th OT.
Pitt down 2 and the QB gets sacked. Toledo players rush the field with the win.
Not sooooo fast. Defensive holding.
One more try for Pitf. Oh, he comes up just short. Toledo players rush the field with the win.
Not sooooo fast. Lol. The ball crossed the goal line.
OT #5 and Pitt converts.
Toledo, thinking they had won the game twice, needs 2.
Sure, why not. Going to OT #6.

I switched to the Pitt-Toledo game from the MIC Bowl.
Back to the MIC Bowl.
Ok, down 7, scores with 6 seconds to go. What a dilemna. Go for 2 and the win or kick the PAT to go to OT.
Navy sends the Navy after the QB when Ok goes for 2 and Navy gets the sack.
Good job, Navy !!

Let it be known that in Week 8, Illinois has a better record than Alabama.
And now we can let it be known that Illinois has finished their season with a better record than Alabama.

wtf is up with the narrow camera angles in the open field? They’re so zoomed in on ball carriers you can’t even see if there are any defensive players in position to get to them.

Yeah soon as I said that they started turning it around 😂

All tied up. Fuck Texas and the SEC!

I had to remind myself that Tx is in the SEC.

Texas moves on. What a game.
-
Yep. You never know if a team will come to play after a month off. ASU came to play.
-
And then we go to the opposite side of the spectrum with this game. #1 team down 34-0 and we're not even at half yet.
-
22 more points and tOSU beats the over.
-
I just knew that what looked like a run of the mill OSU team would beat Oregon in a rematch. I HATE that this game is taking place any time outside of the semis or final. Sucks. Committee needs to completely reevaluate the way they do the seeding, byes, and selection. Oregon also should have showed up.
Also lends some credence to my theory that OSU sandbagged the Michigan game.
-
Yeah, the seeing in the CFP is trash…
-
The 3 teams with byes all lost. Hmmm..
Let's see what the Dawgs do.
-
Next year they need to seed according to rank.
-
They can't do that because of contracts.
Seeds 1-4 with a poll consensus of 1-4 rankings.
Seeds 5-8 can be done any way they want, I don't care. But it will be conference champs who don't get a bye, like Boise, ASU and Clemson this year for starters.
9-12 is whatever is left and whoever they want.
-
Conference champs should get an automatic bid, not an automatic bye.
-
This game went south real quick.

Still time but ND salting it away

Not a good week when your conference is outcoached by B1G and ND coaches....

That was used as a slogan for football.
I didn't make it to the 82 Liberty Bowl vs Bama. I did go to our Rose Bowl game in 84.

-
The early 80s did belong to the Illini.
Yeah, but we won the 1964 Rose Bowl with Dick Butkus and Jim Grabowski.
Basketball team were 1962/63 Big Ten Champs. The 1964/65 team upset UCLA 110-83 (I was there). The 1966/67 team was loaded with talent, hadn't quite put it together.

True. But Citrus Bowl is not some "participation trophy" type bowl. It's still very highly regarded.

It’s kind of a participation trophy bowl. It’s better than a lot of others, but it’s a glorified exhibition game.

Katina's revenge:
Tulane denied Hurricane Katrina uniform homage
Tulane sported helmets without decals in its season opener yesterday to honor the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. The team wanted to wear white uniforms like they had in their first game after the hurricane in 2005, but they were reportedly denied by their opponent, Northwestern. The Green Wave proceeded to stomp the Wildcats in a 23-3 win, and head coach Jon Sumrall had much to say after the fact. “Don’t disrespect New Orleans ever,” Sumrall said.

The Hoosiers kick a program tying long 58 yarder to go up 13-10 @ Oregon with 6 seconds left in the 1st half.
Hold everything. The Ducks called a time out to ice the kicker.
Ha. He nails it again.

Blatant missed PI on Oregon earlier where Cingetti went off on the ref. Hopefully he’s not at Indiana long, wanna get him out of the conference. He’s a great coach and the real deal…

Yep and yep. I don't know how they could have missed the call.

Oregon had given up 1 sack in 5 games and it wasn't by tPSU. The Hoosiers have 5 today, so Mendoza throws his 2nd pick of the year for a pick 6 to even up the score.

Indiana is legit good.

Keep winning and maybe we'll play 1 of them, or better. We're probably not getting enough credit for beating USC, and there's 1 way to fix that.
Beat Washington.
-
Pretty much everything we wanted from this season is still in front of us. We really need this bye week to get healthy and get our shit straight. I suspect we’ll lose that Washington, but I think we can run the table otherwise. That still puts us exactly where we were last year which was a historically great season.

I wanted playoffs. Would have to run the table to even entertain it.

The gofers let the Cornhuskers know that they're not top 25. 213 yards of offense and 36 rushing yards.
At 6 min or so left in the 4th Neb had 33 yards in the 2nd half.
Raiola got sacked 9 times. We have 15 after 7 games.
Dook, at home, is favored over #12 Ga Tech.

The Hoosiers moved quick.
2 years ago the guy was at James Madison making less than $1 million a year.
-
I’ve been messing with my IU fan buddies about him leaving in the next year or two, I’m sure if somebody wants him bad enough he can get out of this though.
-
The Sporting News lists him with the 3rd highest salary, only a million behind Ryan Day and $1.5 million behind Kirby Smart.
Not too shabby for 2 years in the big leagues so I wouldn't be surprised if he stays. But I wouldn't be surprised if he goes.
-
I’d think at his age, he’s probably content where he’s at; but who knows?
-
And the Huskies will head back to Seattle with their tails between their legs to get ready for us.
Sven's team with the win 24-7.
-
We're back in the AP at #23 with our 2 losses to #1 and #2.
The 5-2 teams ahead of us are ND, Tennessee, LSU and Texas.

He notes that he just signed the best recruiting class of his entire career, including when he led Wisconsin to three league titles. He even flipped a running back away from Alabama on signing day. "I've never been able to do that," he said.

Things I learned in today's fishwrap.
Because Nebraska is a football school, this goes here.
The basketball team has the nation's longest major college winning streak at 20.
They finished last season in something called the College Basketball Crown post season tourney and the top 10 team is undefeated this year.
🤷
Because Indiana is a basketball school and the football team is a 7+ point favorite over the playing at home Hurricanes this goes here also.
The football program had a nation leading 713 losses in 130+ years of cfb going into the 2024 season.
They don't have a 5 star on their roster.
They've lost twice since the start of last season.
