And FIU can't get it done in OT. Having watched them play for the first time, Liberty is even more of a fraud than I thought; I can't picture them going undefeated in CUSA even, and they would lose by 70 in a playoff game.

Re: Tampa, Hurricane Milton and Yulman

Local news this morning tweeted that it already has the second-lowest recorded barometric pressure (897 mb), only behind Rita (859 mb) in 2005. The next three are Allen, Camille, and Katrina (899, 900, 902 respectively). Dumbfounding that USF is gonna try to play this game in Tampa this weekend. No...

Re: Weekly college football humor shorts

Mitchell's was definitely below his high standards, but having to do the last one way late last week and having a serious medical scare with his wife and infant pretty easily explain it. SEC Shorts (and, again, captions on for it) was one of the best ones they've ever done.

Re: 106.1 FM NEW HOME for WAVE

Nice! 106.1 The Zephyr. Might get some younger Alt Rock listeners to become Tulane fans. I wonder if TU Athletics will do any giveaways with ZephyrFest. Are you under the impression "younger Alt Rock listeners" tune in to FM radio? Well, "younger" by the standards of this board....

Re: Weekly college football humor shorts

Make sure you have the captions on for SEC shorts this week; it's funny and just as Vandy-oriented as it should be. And features the most Texas line ever.

Re: Wave chances for Playoff

I still don't trust that undefeated Liberty, no matter how bad the SOS, wouldn't get in over two-loss anyone (no matter how "good" the losses). The general public delight in loving a Cinderella. But that usually only really works if they haven't been to the ball recently, and Liberty got ...

Now knowing that, I think it is only fair to give this group and Coach Hunter two or three seasons to gel together.

Re: Pac 12 Realignment

The New PAC would have to dramatically improve their bluntly insulting initial offer. Our brand is worth more than Colorado State. Should the numbers change, it could be worthwhile, but I really think if that offer were going to happen it would have already. The whole thing sounds like the New PAC w...

Re: Pac 12 Realignment

At this stage, I would want to see a *lot* of zeros to jump in that clown car. The AAC has problems, and it's still possible it ends up a viable upgrade, but I would expect at a minimum full payment of lost revenue and fees from AAC exit and a bump besides. Loss of trust and a clown first offer come...

UNLV starting QB Matthew Sluka has decided to redshirt the rest of the season. He says its due to broken promises on the part of the school. The school says he's been tampered with and offered more money. That's a big blow for UNLV's playoff hopes which helps us if we can win out. It also helps Boi...

Re: Pac 12 Realignment

The PAC could have been a better option with a different deal on the table, but clearly turned out not to be. Paying buyouts for the MWC defectors but not us and Memphis is insulting and a non-starter. The orphaning of the olympic sports is also a problem. The PAC leadership seems chaotic, at best, ...
