    Sam Houston ST accepts invitation to join Conference USA

    Good 1-AA program. They'll do okay. Liberty was destined to be invited to one of the leagues. Good stadium, good attendance, good coach and a pretty good team. CUSA probably allowed New Mexico St to remain Div 1. Jax St gets some good talent, with speed, they should be competitive.

    Welcome to the Club, Cincinnati.

    I think I woul go along with that. OU has become a much better team with that new QB instead of Rattler back there. But I also blieve that UC is in a better position right now than any G5 team in the playoff era, at this stage of the season. There are\ teams above them that will lose...

    AP Top 25

    I'm a bit off topic because I'm not worried or responding to the AP Top 25, but rather the 4 final picks for the playoffs. The rest of this stuff is meaningless. Bama and Georgia are certainly the best two in America right now. They will have to face each other in the CCG. Thus the argument...

    Targeting

    In the Ole Miss game, a Louisville Blocker on their kickoff return team was ejected for targeting. (Offensive player). There is an old football adage that goes back to 1869..."You play the game with your head up and your ass down. You don't lead with the crown of your helmet. And I gotta...

    Montana 13 , #20University of Washington 7

    Of course it does. A Top 20 opponent in week #1 means nothing. Just because some writers vote for them doesn't establish them as a Top 20 team. BTW, I never wrote that it was a common occurrence.

    Targeting

    In the Ole Miss game two of the 4 trageting calls were called from the booth. One was on an offensive block. They began the rule to protect players from cheap shot artists. You cannot protect the players by designing better helmets because that just makes the helmet more of a weapon. The...

    Montana 13 , #20University of Washington 7

    Nobody said they should be able to beat a top 20 FBS team...but many people have always said..."There'sa reason why we play the game.." Upsets are a part of the game of football. The reasons for the upsets are numerous. The FBS school isn't focused. They're fat-headed. The FCS opponent is...

    Montana 13 , #20University of Washington 7

    I understand the point you are trying to make, but it is an incorrect point. Montana is always a Top 20 FCS team. Their starting players, many of them, could compete at the FBS level. They just don't have the depth to compete week in and week out. In my opinion E Tenn St whipping Vandy or...

    Montana 13 , #20University of Washington 7

    Montana is usually a good FCS team. Beating Washington is big but 5 other FCS teams won this weekend and some were pretty low life. Holy Cross just outmuscled UCONN 38-28. UC Davis hung on the beat Tulsa 19-17 E Tenn St beat the crap out of Vandy 23-3 E Wash took out UNLV in 2 OT 35-33...

    JIMBO Gets an extension and a raise.

    You got that right. After he coerced the 2nd of 3 raises out of FSU before ever coaching a game there I was on board that this guy wasn't our answer. He even fucked up our seating at Doak. Some of his low life cronies decided to make the South end zone with a bar and lounge at the top, and...

    JIMBO Gets an extension and a raise.

    He's a hustler. He agreed to a contract to become FSU's OC, and then spent an entire off-season whining and flirting with other schools to coerce 3 raises from FSU before he ever coached a down. Then he repeated his "show" every off=season after that. He was never "beloved" at FSU, and that...

    This has got to be the all-time most boring Week Zero lineup of games in history.

    UCLA vs Hawaii was an OK game. Hawaii couldn't score but they moved the ball. Southern utah put up a fight at San Jose. They couldn't cash in on some San Jose mistakes. N Mex St vs UTEP is a big rivalry game for those two schools. UTEP is just better. UCONN at Fresno was going to be a rout...

    So.....

    It would appear that they are a schoolbent on making money, and very little else. They're probably looking to attract students who will pay a large tuition to go there, BUT, they have to have credentials behind them. (Educational credentials) Montverde Academy is around 9 miles from my house...

    There's still hope for the Big 12

    It depends on what they envision for the league, financially. If it's a regional set-up, it greatly reduces finances. Then SMU, Houston and Tulsa would bring value to the league. Theolympic sports do not drain the bank accounts. But you are going to find it difficult to get expensive Bowl...

    There's still hope for the Big 12

    I think SMU would be their first choice. I wouldn't have a problem with Houston joining the league also, but that could reshape it into a regional league. I wouldn't overlook the possibility of Tulsa joining the league either. They also would want to take both UCF and USF. That would give...

    Preseason top 10

    I wouldn't put much stock in anything at this moment. The leagues aren't going to be cancelling and moving gmes this year. Teams will have to use their walk-on's or forfeit games, with the team they forfeit to getting a win. It won't take many of those to turn standings upside down. Then we...

    Mormons take advantage of NIL

    It's walking a fine line, but it should be okay. It only covers tuition. The Walk-on's still have to pay for room and board and books. A scholarship covers all of that expense and teams are limited to no more than 85 "scholarship" players. Plus the money is paid directly to the players and...

    Which fairly successful coaches have the most to lose in 2021?

    That's an excellent choice. Not many had hope for him...then they ran the table in 2019. Last year they tanked. This year people will know if he is a great coach or the HC of a one-year wonder. This will be an important year for him

    Which fairly successful coaches have the most to lose in 2021?

    I think I'll disagree. He needs physical, tall receivers. These 5-10 folks don't give him what he needs. His offense is geared to run the football. I think we were 4th or something in the league last year with a slightly improved OL at 199 yards per game. Taller, physical receivers on the...

    Could college football eventually look like this?

    I think we are headed toward something like that. I believe it will be done by existing leagues expanding, rather than creating new "Divisions." What will the size of the leagues, eventually be is a guess. It could be 16 teams per league, up to a Maximum of 20 teams per league. Each League...

    Blowing up the Big 12

    How 'Bout...Super Conferences for football only. And then Basketball and the non-revenue sports play in regional type leagues, that remain in the NCAA. Just a thought.
