You’re assuming Troy State would get a bye? 😊

Yeah, we’ve identified this issue before. Most college playoffs are attempts to have a fair system. Whether basketball, baseball, softball or whatever, no one thinks about how can we set up the most interesting matchups. People may have minor complaints about seeding or which regional but...

Not a playoff.

What’s different? We don’t know what an expanded playoff would look like numbers wise.

Well…of course it’s bunk. A more objective preseason ranking for GT would be around 15. Clearly we suffer from the ACC phenomenon. 😊

What was the lowest rated, least lucrative playoff game in the last 9 years? 😊

Truthfully, we fans make more out of a process that is probably pretty straightforward and prosaic for coach Key. But who can blame us in the off season as we search for “excitement.” I like Knob Creek also. Very decent with no funny edges. Last bottle I had got completely consumed by some...

The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of having as many conference champions as possible in a playoff. The more the merrier! In the basketball playoffs over the years I learned about, and got to watch, teams I’d never heard of who I thought I would not be interested in…teams...

Now. That’s. Hysterical.

I remember seeing an ad for a betting service many years ago. They had an incredible winning percentage against the spread. I don’t gamble but I was intrigued by something they said that has stuck with me all these years later. “There is no such thing as an upset.” There point, I think, was...

Well, you did get honorable mention.

That sounds about right but it’s a complicated question to answer without a lot of nuance. I’m sure CPJ was always his own man and would never be “run off.” But he always said he would quit the moment it was no longer fun for him. He quit on his own terms, and quit with integrity, but a lot...

I’ve been in a silly mood of late. 😊

It’s a figure of speech. The powers that be made CPJ fight for every little thing in the program, which Johnson had to do constantly to keep the program from being starved to death. I think CPJ had too much dignity to continue putting up with a program that kept signaling to him that his...

“That’s not an argument, that’s gain saying.” 🤣

It was just a bottle that needed finishing. And this thread was the perfect excuse. I’m actually quite happy most of the time with Buffalo Trace. There are several other usual suspects but Trace suits my taste consistently for some reason.
