Finally this stupid loving season is over.

Put an asterisk next to everything and never bring it up again.

No one's bowl appearance streak should be counted as over. Especially when there was a reasonable chance of 4-5 or worse teams getting bowl games because "who cares, just invite whatever."

He had some recruiting problems at PSU that were beyond the sanctions, mainly related to deficiencies at certain positions. In retrospect, this is obviously because he's not great at roster management. But, he did have a battered team punching above its weight.

I would assume they're going to try to distance the players from their real life counterpart even more this time around.


I never got why they didn't do that the first time. Every program has tendencies you can rely on for the not real players, so you can get them to play like the real thing.

Ah yes. Can’t wait to see this game when I’m in my late 40s and both programs will be completely different.

I waited like 15 years for the PSU@VT game, then a global pandemic canceled it and there's no plan to reschedule.

Most over-rated school in texas is... Alabama. First of all, Alabama pretty much is always rated exactly where they need to be because they've earned the benefit of the doubt. Secondly, Alabama... isn't in texas?

For example, Stanford from 1930 to 1972 was known as the Indians.

I literally did not know that. Also, sort of an odd one for Stanford.

Penn State once changed its colors and no one even acknowledges that it happened. Traditions are more malleable than they seem.

A rookie in 2022 could have been born in 2004 (gently caress), to a player born in, say, 1984 to a guy that was in the NHL in the 1989-1994 "childhood memories" era for me.

But wouldn't you run the risk of everyone else in the Big 12 figuring you out through experience, instead of the Navy modus operandi of "well we're only going to play this team once in the next five years, so they'll never really learn how to deal with the triple option."

All I hope is that some mechanism can be found that retains the flavor of college football as it is. If it all just becomes half of the year talking about how much everyone is offering Player X, then, ugh. That's why I pretty much abandoned NFL. The ratio of "talk about the game" to "talk about contract negotiations" is awful.

On one hand, it makes sense to me that Penn State would be in the top 15 for first round picks. Plenty of perfectly good college football players have gone through.

On the other hand, you'd think there wouldn't be so many given that taking a first round Nittany Lion is a fast track to signing a bust or a guy who immediately gets hurt.
