    So you mean you expect Miami to be our opponent in the ACCCG.
  2. Article CFP unanimously approves 5+7 model for new 12-team playoff

    Yes, this codifies what we all already know. It used to be the P5+G5, without much differentiation between the 5 P5 conferences or the 5 G5 conferences, but there was a large difference between P5 and G5. Now, with the new TV contracts there are 3 distinct levels - (1) the SEC & B1G, (2) the...

    When you click on the link on that webpage it downloads an audio file so you'll have forever if you want. The pitch that hits Brosius is at 9:25 if you want to listen to the entire at bat including Wiley's lead up. If you just want to listen to the HR call go to 10:50.
  4. Who still has cable?

    My HOA provides basic HD Xfinity with 3 TV cable boxes; I'm leasing a 4th cable box and paying extra for faster internet. In all honesty, I really prefer cable for watching college football games. I can hit the "c" button on the controller and see the scores of a handful of games and click on...
  5. 2024 ACC Football Schedule Reveal - Jan 24th, ACC Network and ESPN2

    Here is an interesting article about the current 5-year series of games in Ireland: https://www.forbes.com/sites/timcasey/2022/08/24/how-companies-city-of-dublin-tourism-agencies-helped-bring-college-football-to-ireland/?sh=ad3aa29142cd. The first two games in the series were...
  6. 2024 ACC Football Schedule Reveal - Jan 24th, ACC Network and ESPN2

    If the FSU game is week 0, does that give us an extra bye week during the season? It should also allow us to start practicing a week earlier than those teams that start their season in week 1.
  7. Conference Realignment

    Apparently, in 2015 FSU had a big push to improve it's academic standing and achieve AAU membership. B1G membership was probably a major reason for the push. According to this article, progress has stalled under the current leadership team and BOT...
  8. Adidas Contract Expiring

    Nike is opening an Innovation Center in West Midtown, less than 2 miles from Grant Field: https://www.11alive.com/article/news/local/midtown/nike-atlanta-innovation-center-buildout-west-midtown/85-5cba75a6-e5c4-404a-befb-e33993c32048
  9. CFP Discussion

    It will very likely be changed to a 5+7 format for 2024. The CFP Management Committee (10 conference commissioners and Notre Dame’s athletics director) have already passed a recommendation for the 5+7 format. The vote was unanimous, with the PAC12 abstaining. All it needs now is to be...
  10. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    My daughter was a college graduate before she was a high school graduate. She did the dual enrollment route in Florida and all her classes for the last two years of high school were at the local Community College. The college graduation for her Associates degree was a week before her High...
  11. Today is early enrollee and transfer move-in day

    So by this list 21 of the 31 newcomers are enrolling in January and thus will be eligible to participate in Spring. I guess that is another benefit of the early signing period in December.
  12. Conference Realignment

    SEC will have a minimum of 4 every year with 5 quite often. B1G will normally have 4, but could drop to 3 in some years. Every 3-4 years, a second team from the Big12/ACC or Notre Dame will get selected. A common lineup will be 1 ACC, 1 Big12, 1 G5, 5 SEC and 4 B1G. And the rich will just...
  13. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    I also hope he keeps his neck roll. He looks like a badass, throwback linebacker wearing that thing.
  14. Gasparilla Bowl Media

    Interesting video of the on-field celebration after the win. I was amazed at how many Tech fans stuck around for the MVP and Trophy presentation after the game; this was a long 5 years so this bowl win felt so good.
  15. Conference Realignment

    I wonder if that first paragraph of the ACC statement is signaling possible ACC sanctions/fines against FSU when their lawsuit fails.
