Log Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Someone should pull a prank where they just keep posting preseason top-25s from the last decade or so and calling it this year's just to see if anyone notices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLowe Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 My Longhorns coming in at 27, which is about right. Had a couple of big season-ending injuries from our first scrimmage (WR Isaiah Neyor, who was a transfer from Wyoming and our #2 WR, and Junior Angilau, starting guard but was working to being starting Center this year). Plus senior RB and heart of the team Roschon Johnson will be out for about a month, so likely missing the Alabama game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 LSU QB Myles Brennan is retiring. (the wording is "walking away from football") The usual idiots are now in EXTREME PEARL CLUTCHING mode since Brennan signed a few NIL deals and now doesn't have to give the money back because there's no performance clause in the deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) ND at #5? LOLOLOLOLOL Ok... EDIT: To put this into context, the AP knew ahead of making this that ND practically has no WR corps. So putting them at 5 when you're hoping for the best from the WR that are left is just a little weird. Edited August 15, 2022 by Craig H 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Fun fact: this is the seventh time in the Nick Saban era they've been #1 in the pre-season AP poll. They've won six national championships under Saban. Somehow, only once have those two events occurred in the same season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 FIU LB Luke Knox died suddenly yesterday. He was 22. He had recently transferred from Ole Miss, and his brother Dawson plays for the Buffalo Bills. No cause was announced. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 #3 player in the country coming out of HS. Potential for incredible talent on the field, but thus far has been a colossal fuck-up off the field. Would be really big for him and Michigan if he has it together and can pick up the pas rush slack post-Hutchinson/Ojabo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Meanwhile Scott Frost is trying to kill his players so they can win 6 games this year I understand that Nebraska in the summer is probably hot as fuck and I understand they will trigger some "these snowflakes" online but after about 10 don't you think maybe increase the fluid supply and/or rest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 In an upcoming interview with HBO, Kevin Warren confirms that the B1G is looking to expand to 20 teams. No timetable on when they hope to get there or who they’re targeting, but you can do the math on that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond the obvious health implications, and the fact that this is just bad coaching, he's basically just handed a lawsuit victory to any future litigants if a problem arises. Do you think Tricky Nicky has 20 guys throwing up at his practices? Somehow I doubt it. Edited August 20, 2022 by Tabe 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted August 19, 2022 Author Share Posted August 19, 2022 On paper, this looks like the year Nebraska should finally break the 6-win barrier under Frost, but then stories like this remind you that some guys are just never going to get it. Pretty wild that this dude has one winning season as a head coach, but it was 13-0. Gene Chizik on steroids. Coach O holding his beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
