    All Things 2025 Playoffs and Bowl Thread

    Weak calls in this one even if they didn’t have much of a chance anyway. Sorry JMU. I like your RB, reminds me of a stockier Jacquizz Rodgers

    I don’t think this next game will be close. I’ll be happy to eat my shoe.

    How many botched field goals are we going to see this weekend. Gameday-like.

    Haven’t played anybody evolved into Oregon probably isn't that good evolved into maybe nobody’s any good.

    Fluky game. Setting up well for Indiana.

    Buffs - Coach Prime

    If the players are considered independent contractors for their NIL payments (a joke, really considering the tenets of the financial arrangements and requirements would get any other “employer” in very hot water - but then again who’s enforcing this anymore) that saves the schools a significant...

    Alabama versus Oklahoma Friday the 19th. Oklahoma is the crowd favorite. Alabama has a two loss streak to Oklahoma (under Deboer) and a putrid SEC championship game performance. Could be interesting, will probably watch.

    Buffs - Coach Prime

    The 2025 big ten media distributions will be around $75M for everyone except sad sacks Oregon and Washington. Bastard programs like those will phase in a little slower. Sorry, not even UCLA was treated so poorly but those are the breaks. The Big 12 distributions will be around half of that...

    Buffs - Coach Prime

    Why stress? The Colorado state legislature can fix all of this by selling off 10% of its future tax revenue for a small upfront payment. Maybe a 75 year contract?

    $200: the final straw for this Gopher alum & lifelong fan

    Generates $53M per year to fund sports. Haven’t they heard of the free money available from PE?

    Michigan fires Moore

    I can’t help but hear this in a certain Secretary of Defense’s voice (more a reflection of my afflictions than anything else). What happened if someone tested the waters, mentioned…gym class

    Would you accept a Michigan-level scandal/mess...

    The human brain is an incredible engine of rationalization of ends justifying the means. I’d wager there is high correlation between the “yes” posters” here with strident right or left political leanings. It’s tempting to see cheaters getting rewarded (like Michigan, or UNC, or XYZ or in...

    Michigan fires Moore

    Yep, that’s gonna be a problem. Not really. You don’t know who’s (or what’s) taken the other side. Kalshi Inc. eg benefits when supposedly walled-off Kalshi Trading wins bets over regular users. Wild West. Caveat emptor, but sports bettors aren’t generally the cautious type. Average joes...

    Would you accept a Michigan-level scandal/mess...

    I wasn’t even thinking about the Sherrone issue. We know Michigan has a laundry list of known recruiting violations in addition to the known creepy assistants and coach (and that’s not including Jim who is a wacko mess). In other words the known recruiting and program violations are probably...

    Is 2025 when College Bowls Die?

    I heard Pettiti is the sole holdout among commissioners in pushing for a 24 team playoff (for next year) rather than a more popular 16 team playoff proposal. My proposal is, hear me out, a 136 team 12 week playoff with subsequent elimination games between conference champions (decided on...

    Drake Lindsey WILL BE BACK with the Gophers!!!!!!!

    Looking over this among other things it caught my eye that AK was statistically good in 2025 (out in Piscataway) compared to his subpar performance here. Surrounding cast, coordinator, or development. Lindsey is starting from a higher base with better intangibles and (I believe) will be a...
