One of my favorite afternoons of my adult life involved getting hammered at Avery Brewing, driving to a natural food store and loading up on fresh produce and sandwiches, and driving to the top of Flagstaff and eating lunch in 3 feet of residual snow* while looking across the Rockies. Boulder is something else. *It was 78F in town.

I would think being out of South Carolina automatically makes a school significantly more attractive than Clemson. Question for Gator fans. Do you want your team to get 9-10 wins and keep Muschamp or would you prefer ~7 and his firing? I understand not wanting to root for a poor season but does anyone honestly believe Muschamp is out coaching anybody if he gets a team to the playoffs?

Get ready for what will be a great game on Nov. 19th, and to see that goddamn Google Maps graphic with LOOK THEY'RE ONLY 26 MILES APART YOU GUYS at least 5 times.

I understand not wanting to root for a poor season but does anyone honestly believe Muschamp is out coaching anybody if he gets a team to the playoffs? I legitimately want him to succeed. It sucks that we hired a coach for OJT for a couple of years, but his defense is super loving nasty. If he takes his hands off the offense and sticks to his specialty he could be good at UF for a long time. Also, South Carolina is awesome if you're near the mountains or the beach. Everything in the middle blows though.

I suppose thats true, although how much of that is just being at UF after the last 10+ years of absurd success? I find myself thinking UF could go out and hire the best coach available in any given offseason so why bother staying hitched to Muschamp?

Relentlessboredomm posted:I would think being out of South Carolina automatically makes a school significantly more attractive than Clemson. I want an offense. Muschamp has proven that he can field and recruit a superb NCAA leading defense. If we get 7 wins but it's evident that the offense is vastly improved then so be it I can live with that. Because if we win 7 but put up 30+ points in the losses it means at least we're moving the ball most likely and scoring. Effective QB and receiver play. An improved utilization of the tight end, and a more dynamic running game are all needed on our offense. I swear to god if our red zone offense is as bad this year as it was last year I'll probably drink myself into a stupor and regain all of my 260 lbs I lost by emotional eating.

Apparently Texas just announced that $750 million will be spent over the next 6-8 years building new facilities for various sports and upgrading DKR. But a stipend would surely ruin college sports by getting all that dirty money involved.

College Station pros: alcohol is really cheap and you're halfway between Houston and Austin (although I'm one of the weirdos who loves Houston) College Station cons: everything else. Also, you're further away from the greatest city in the country (New Orleans, of course)

Crotch Bat posted:Just for the hell of it, here's the power conference schools who haven't hit 7 wins in the last 5 years. I stuck with them for a few reasons, most of which should be obvious. Seeing as Korranus is a Houston fan, I'm pretty sure he was referring to the schools outside the Power 5. DJExile posted:Probably around the same time the BG/Toledo game got called "The Battle of I-75" by ESPN, which nobody has ever loving said between either school or fanbase. That trophy is pretty, uh... yeah, I don't even know what to say about that. WKU had a cool, naturally-formed trophy rivalry but it's dead (Battle for the Red Belt).

Media's getting another look at McLane today, getting some nice shots out of it. I knew we had a field-level recruiting lounge now, but I didn't know it's right next to where the team will be coming out. I really like that setup.     Thirteen days.

The trophy used to be the "Peace Pipe", and I completely understand wanting to get away from native american imagery, but jesus guys this just horrible. The game was just always called "the BG/UT game" around here, then someone (I'm almost certain it was ESPN's deal) had to give it the silly nickname. Ah well, the game owns at least.

Idaho Eastern Michigan Kentucky Eastern Kentucky Florida will win all of these. @ Vanderbilt @ Tennessee Florida will probably win these two. Missouri Toss-up. Hard to tell right now. WLOCP LSU Florida will probably lose these two. @ Alabama South Carolina @ Florida State Florida will not win these three. And that, dear friends, will not be enough to save Muschamp's job.

D.N.

Still though I don't see them beating LSU, Missouri, Georgia, AND South Carolina. Maybe 3 at absolute best.

In an alternate universe somewhere, Jimbo got his way and hired Muschamp away to run the defense and FSU hasn't lost a game since 2011.
