I didn't expect the craziest thing I read all week to be on the weekly CFB thread here. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 (edited) 4 hours ago, RIPPA said: The Army/Navy game will remain in place and will be played as a non-conference game between the two schools despite now both being in the AAC So if they two schools somehow ended up in the AAC championship game - they would play on back to back weeks Army (like Navy) will also keeps its yearly game against Air Force Army and Navy will also be the only two AAC members who aren't Basketball members (both are in the Patriot League for basketball) Also with SMU departing the AAC. I wonder if the AAC will drop to 13 Basketball members or if they'll add another non-football school member (Wichita State is the only AAC member that isn't a football school). Clearly the most responsible thing possible is to rumor Gonzaga joining the AAC (the rumor is VCU to the AAC) Edited October 25, 2023 by Cobra Commander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 So the most recent news in the Michigan story is that this apparently started at the NCAA level on Tuesday when a third party investigative firm brought evidence from computer hard drives to the NCAA. Who hired the firm and how they obtained access to the information is currently still unknown though the wild fan speculation is that Matt Weiss, angry about being fired over whatever the hell it is he did (still being investigated by the UMPD, but a spokesperson said it's not connected to Stallion) leaked it as revenge. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Sam Houston and UTEP had a color rush game last night because UTEP packed their home jerseys instead of their road jerseys and El Paso is a long ways away from the rest of Texas. Then UTEP made a late comeback to keep Sam Houston winless for the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Driving wise, it's about the same distance from El Paso to Los Angeles as it is El Paso to the closest point on the eastern border of Texas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Take it for what it is worth but Steve Sarkisian is starting to tease that Arch Manning is gonna see playing time sooner rather than later (Maalik Murphy is still scheduled to start) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted October 26, 2023 Author Share Posted October 26, 2023 The NCAA isn't exactly buying Harbaugh's rouge staffers theory and is at Michigan investigating. Little correlated piece of info: Harbaugh from 2015 - 2020 Against the Spread: 32-38-1 Harbaugh From 2021 (when these dastardly rogue staffers who had nothing to do with him began taping) - today ATS: 22-11-2. In that same period: Clemson (14-19) tOSU (14-16-1) Oklahoma (17-14-1) Alabama (19-16) Georgia (20-17) I sure do wonder what the difference could have been...

In another sign of just how weird this whole thing is, there's a completely different "look how much it helped" argument that completely contradicts that one. Jim Harbaugh's record at Michigan when fans are allowed in stands 77-21 Record in 2020 where they couldn't "scout": 2-4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 And speaking of Matt Weiss, apparently he's now being investigated by the FBI. Still no word on what, exactly, his alleged "computer access crimes" entailed, but it's again been emphasized it has nothing to do with the sign stealing scouting scandal. It's so weird having the best time in decades to be a Michigan fan literally also be the worst time ever to be a Michigan fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Ope everyone needs to find a new joke though, "they didn't scout TCU" is dead. The Horned Frogs knew Michigan was good at stealing signals and changed them and used dummy signals to fool Michigan during the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Actual football talk There are only two Top 25 matchups this week (#8 Oregon at #13 Utah and #20 Duke at #18 Louisville) and both are in the 3:30 est window. There's a few interesting potential upset type games. Biggest one to me is if Georgia can't get their offense running without Bowers against Florida. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 looking at the TV schedule.. I might end up watching some OU vs KU unless it's a total massacre quickly. Maybe Houston vs K-State will be interesting. Gonna be a lot of "watch whatever game is the closest/most interesting" before I go off to the World Series. Got late Fresno State and Nevada games if I feel like watching Mountain West games late. Hawaii's at home but I don't put the effort into figuring out how to watch their games that aren't on an actual cable channel. The CBS Sports Network football lineup is some real Sickos-quality games: UMass at Army, Miami-Ohio at Ohio U, Air Force at Colorado State, and New Mexico at Nevada.

Dewar Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Miami of Ohio and Ohio are both 6-2, so that might be worth watching. I get ABC North Dakota, so I have access to Murray State-North Dakota State instead of BYU-Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 As a Michigan fan, I'm unhappy anytime they're accused of cheating or breaking the rules. Having said that, if somebody watching/filming your sideline with a freaking cellphone is enough to crack the code on your system, well, maybe rethink how you're doing things. I'm also 100% certain Michigan is not the only school doing something similar. And, of course, the NCAA could handle this by allowing radio helmets or allowing in-person scouting, which the majority of schools have voted in favor of already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
