I really believe that's possible. Smith is clearly one of the top DE in the country and will be drafted next year. Bush has produced at a high level over multiple P4 seasons. I think Menz is a future All B1G player. Howard improved and is a great athlete. They're likely to work Karmo into...

I don't care how many teams make it, but I'd love to see them work towards: Start the season earlier (people are desperate for FB by July -- why not start in mid-Aug?). Finish earlier (CFB championship should def be a week earlier, if not New Year's). Eliminate the long breaks between games...

Seems like one of the least offensive championship matchups in recent memory to me. Indiana is a great story and seems to play hard and the right way. Miami hasn’t won jack in decades, is coached by a prodigal son, and doesn’t carry themselves like the cocky Miami teams of the past.

This is always the case for good teams, but Miami and IU have absolutely dominated the trenches on both sides throughout the CFP. They’re good at every position group, but they’re especially good rushing the passer, running the ball, and giving their QBs time to throw. I’m super excited about...

Only thing I know is what Burns reported. I think there were either some PFF or EPA stats/grades in the article, and the dude drastically improved the ST units at the past 3 places he’s worked. I think NM went from like 100+ in the nation to top 20 in one year. Who knows how much of that is...

TY Hilton’s kid. I was always surprised he ended up at Wisconsin. Although they live in the Indianapolis area (Colts connection OFC), dad is from Miami and Eugene had tons of offers from southern schools and took some visits down there.

That’s a bummer if true. He showed a few glimpses down the stretch this season, and I figured it was due to some hard work behind the scenes that would continue into the offseason. As others have said, the cupboard isn’t “bare” at WR even without him, but they’ll certainly be counting on at...

I really like that “NIT” idea. You could even use some of the existing bowls to host those — which would make them even more interesting IMO.

Funny part about that is I guarantee at least 2 of those SEC teams will be ranked at some point — and then go on to finish sub .500 in conference. Every year, man.

Michigan needs a “fixer”, you say? I happen to know of one…

This isn’t talked about enough IMO. When KC left, PJ clearly made a decision to transition the offense to a more pro-style attack that relies on less RPO, more adjustments at the line, more “West coast” type passing concepts, etc. Has it been awesome? No, unequivocally it has not. But they’ve...

Pretty much, yes. PE gives you a bunch of money now in return for the promise of more money later (collected over time, of course). You don't produce enough money on the schedule they want? Well, that's when the fun stats! They start tinkering with your operation to make it more profitable.

I’m warming up on the game after reading more about all these teams declining bids. PJ cares about bowl games and will have the team ready. UNM is a pretty good squad who will probably treat the game like a big deal and be motivated. No clue where either team will be in terms of portal...

PE dictating college athletics decisions? Oh good lord. Get ready to welcome your favorite low-cost airline carrier policies to a stadium near you lol. Also, we laughed about it in another thread, but it’s only a matter of time before the Saudis buy a team — or conference.
