I thought some more on this. I think the real difference comes down to, in basketball the smaller/undersized team is pretty much allowed to cross half court uncontested and so they will always get a shot off. It might be a long 3, but if it goes in, they keep it close and can win. In...

They happen all the time IN BASKETBALL. They happen almost never in football when the dominant team has time off to prepare.

Yeah, but the point me and @Ope3 are trying to make is that it was more fun when those teams were already eliminated because by mid November you always, always knew who the best 3-4 were. So then those "15-20" like you mention were just jockeying for a better bowl. Some of us loved that...

It depends on perspective. I don't like the fact that those two teams are even allowed to compete for the national championship. Alabama has THREE loses for crying out loud. I would much rather watch a random bowl game than a 3 loss Alabama team compete for another championship. Watching...

1. The Texas/tOSU game at the start of the season had significantly less meaning than it would have had 10-15 years ago. The loser of that game would have needed to run the table and get some luck in order to compete for the national championship. Now it's more like a mulligan for the loser...

Man. when it's all said and done, seems like all they will have gotten is their 15 minutes of fame and a retired #2 jersey.

Plus our WRs are actually running real routes instead of the grade school playground routes we saw under Kill.

I might be wrong, but isn't that what we're doing right now? Bring in more than we can keep, then get rid of some?

Geez, I know you chair force people don't go to college, and typically need a dictionary just to spell the word, but can you at least try and be clever with your insults? I'd like to think you at least enrolled in a high school, but I'm not completely sure. Doesn't take much between the ears...

I think it was brought up elsewhere that we are bringing in like 31 players and other teams are bringing in half that, so we are having to have more portal out.

Watch MeTV's Toon In With Me every morning and you might find out.

Glen Mason would hire new defensive coordinators to do exactly this all the time. I don't ever recall us having a better defense because of it. If you simplify the assignments, you make it easier on the offense to pick you apart. Yeah, you give up less explosive plays in exchange for watching...

Sure, if your books are along the lines of what a $150,000 accountant normally does, then both can do them equally well. If you're books are more along the lines of what the million dollar person deals with regularly then I'd disagree. I work in software development, not accounting, but there...

Yeah, I was just making a cheap joke, have some family in Georgia. Still not sure if I could do Christmas without snow though. All these decades of having it....

Thousands of people in neighboring states would like to chime in....

Why in the world would he want to go there over here, if he's leaving the NFL?

Tim Tebow is probably the best example. Dude had bad mechanics/long wind up before the throw, but that sophomore season with 55 TDs was amazing. Totally different experience for Florida from '06 to '09 if you don't let him run haha.

I hate to reply to the same post twice lol, but there is something you are missing here. When the play breaks down, the only thing the "pocket passer" can do is throw it out of bounds. Having a running QB lets you pick up a few yards.

LOL - you're the one who originally floated the idea in the "How To Fix College Football" thread and then you reference it here in this thread. Reminds me of Ralph Kramden floating the rumor he was gonna get the promotion at the bus station.

In good natured debate (as opposed to typical Gopherhole arguing) I would counter that Athan would have missed that pass anyway, even from the pocket. ;) I get what you're saying, and we're probably just talking over each other lol, but the threat of designed runs (ala Lamar Jackson, or...
