Navy wearing helmets with hand-painted ships on them for each specific position group this week for the Army/Navy game. They look fucking awesome.

They would have far and away the best resume of the 1 loss teams, and should not be penalized for actually having made their conference championship game unlike some teams.

If we start rewarding teams for when they lose instead of who they beat we might as well blow up the whole thing because it is a sham.
The acc is terrible. What the fuck are you even talking about?

He's been trolling OSU threads for a while. I'm all for dissenting opinions on OSU football but comments alluding to firing Urban Meyer after 4 losses in 4 years and a National Title is downright stupid/trollish.

I got a year ban for the "LJ expert meme"; not sure how that's worse.

And also I'm seeing sports writers on twitter saying it's a bad decision or unfortunate. They haven't won the SEC since 2005 and haven't even represented the East over the last 3 years when it has sucked. They've been snake bitten with Gurleys and Chubbs' injuries the last few years, but that happens in college football....
Today the AAC was chirping about Tom Herman being expected to sign an extension and get handsome raise very shortly with Houston. I thought I heard it was to be signed before the conf champ game so this week some time.

Sounds like at least another year. Have to wait and see who gets fired next year.

No coach has ever put more than 60 players in the NFL...without winning a national title.

Mark Richt has 79 players in the NFL and hasn't even played for a national championship.

Well it's not like Maryland is doing anything without richt. Might as well offer him the job.

I disagree. If UNC wins, they're not playing in the playoffs.

Yes. That is being displayed on the pants.



And "Damn the Torpedoes" is on the pants and the jersey, too.

North Carolina winning on Saturday would create some crazy controversy. You could easily argue for and against Clemson, Ohio State and North Carolina.

Won their league? North Carolina
Best wins? Clemson
Best loss? Clemson/Ohio State
Worst loss? North Carolina
Biggest name/intangibles? Ohio State

Clemson is done if they lose this week. North Carolina only enters the discussion if they beat Clemson by some insane score (like the Bucks did in Big Ten championship last year).

That's too bad. I wanted them to get Strong and Texas to go after Saban.
