Why is your conference so shit?

>three /cfb/ threads going at the same time

I've never been more proud.
Prediction for my Sooners:
The team will finish the season undefeated and at #2 and lose convincingly to whomever is #3 and the media will barely even talk about how Oklahoma has failed to deliver for almost 15 years even though everyone is already well aware of it, again contributing to another season of overrated Sooners in 2017.
Either that or they will go 9-3 after a rough start against the only quality teams they played all year.

Princeton has 27 natties and they're not exactly a blooblod now are they
>>68038727
Don't be so down, you'll be based Houston's quality win they need to make the playoffs.
Copying what I said from previous thread:
>>68038665
>there are 7 teams that have a dramatically higher win-rate
Define dramatically higher, because most of those supposed teams float around .7 while Nebraska sits at .699
># of wins
Nebraska sits at #4 in all-time wins. The only teams above them are Texas, Notre Dame, and Michigan
>natties
Nebraska has 5 outright, which is 9th most.
Nebraska also has the most conference titles out of all teams, and is 3rd is most bowl game appearances. Their 3 Heisman winners places them 5th, and are also 5th in most NFL draft picks. They are also the winningest team within the last 50 years.
Claiming Nebraska is not a blue blood is factually incorrect by nearly every metric possible.

>>68038787
Princeton doesn't even play in the FBS anymore. If they still payed within the FBS they would most certainly still be included. Plus, Princeton has won a whopping 3 conference titles since 1955. There is no comparison.
>>68038789
It's not a list of achievements. It's a status. You don't have it.

Based on what? Muh feelings? Does that mean Alabama was not a blue blood in the 2000s? Oklahoma, Texas, and USC werent blue bloods in the 90s? Michigan and Notre Dame aren't ones now? Achievements lead to blue blood status, you moron.

>>68038816
This is correct.
The B1G has four teams that will be consistently good though.
>>68038815
I got this if it counts
>>68038816
>you haven't won shit lately
Agreed. SO I guess if that's what it takes to remove us from blue blood status, Notre Dame and Michigan are no longer blue bloods.

>>68038839
None of those teams ever went close to going 17 years without winning a conference championships. Nebraska's run of mediocrity is unprecedented in blooblod history (except of course by Nebraska in the 30s through 60s, when they went 23 years of mediocrity).
>>68038832

Both Notre Dame and Michigan recruited at the very highest level and both have huge draw for great coaches.
And well... you have Mike Riley and recruiting classes ranked around 35th, as they have been for over a decade.
>>68038893

>>68038911
It's an 8-4 season with a heisman.
>>68038899
>the rest of the country
The Big 12 hasn't won a natty since 2005 and the PAC since 2004. Plus the B1G has at least sent a team to the playoff both years and won 1. The B1G is currently the second best conference in cfb at the least, and closing in on the $EC for first.
>>68038903
What do you call Notre Dame then? They haven't won shit for BCS bowls, and haven't won a natty since the 80s. Notre Dame hasn't done jack shit. Why are they on the list, and not Nebraska?
Nebraska's run of mediocrity has lasted for a whopping 15 years, which is a lot, I agree, but to claim that 15 years of no conference titles removes all prior achievement is nonsensical and stupid.
When we lose our top spot in terms of most conference titles, drop out of the top 5 in terms of wins, andstart having regular 7-8 win seasons, come talk to me. But as of right now, there is zero objective reasoning which makes Nebraska not part of the club.
>>68038864
>no longer

>>68038963
>closing in

>>68038933
Callahan also recruited at the highest level.
Even when Nebraska was dominant, they never had high level recruiting classes.
On the field performance means something. When they start handing out championships for recruiting rankings, then I'll take your argument seriously.

>>68038969

You don't have the status.
Unlike ND and Michigan, you aren't recruiting at the highest level. You've been recruiting at Missouri's level for over a decade. You also have no draw for coaches.
>>68038969
tbf Notre Dame gets more slack than most because they're such an iconic part of the landscape of cfb. Always remind them about the no BCS thing tho because it's hilarious.

>inb4 michiganposters, georgiaposters and washingtonposters
hello
>>68039016
Lets try this again.
Recruiting means jack shit. Repeat: Jack shit. Nebraska has never recruited top-ten classes barring the Callahan era. On-the-field performance and history is what determines blue blood status. They are the basis as to what teams are in the conversation and which teams are not. By your logic, that means Michigan could suffer 7-5 records for 20 years...but as long as they draw in top-10 classes they're a blue blood. It's a shitty argument.
We have no draw for coaches because their has been zero chance for us to draw in a big name. Do you not realize how much timing is required to make a big-name hire? Ohio State was open when Meyer was job-searching. Nebraska wasn't. Alabama was open when Nick Saban fucked himself in the NFL. Nebraska wasn't. LSU and Michigan were open when Les Miles wanted a job. Nebraska wasn't.
>>68039051

Why?
>>68039037
>Alabama rapes every team in the SEC
>Watson memes it up and probably wins Heisman
> >
>Michigan isn't ready yet and MSU will probably regress unless >Messiah pulls it off
Ps. Glad /cfb/ is back
>>68039030
We have been the winningest program within the last 50 years. Only 2 other teams have gotten 9 or more wins since 2009, which are Alabama and Oregon. The conference Championship drought is a big concern, yes. But 17 years of mediocrity does not cancel out the 30+ years of complete control we had over the landscape. Shitty argument is shitty.
>>68039068
my dad is from NC and grew up a Duke fan, thus i like to see them do good and theres just something about ECU

>By your logic, that means Michigan could suffer 7-5 records for 20 years...but as long as they draw in top-10 classes they're a blue blood. It's a shitty argument.
Michigan won three straight in 2002-2004 iirc. They've accomplished something this century.
>>68039062
>We have no draw for coaches because their has been zero chance for us to draw in a big name.
Maybe you should've picked a better time to ditch your four loss coach then?
Is Patrick Mahomo white?
>>68039082
You were shitty for the 30 years before those 30 years too. You're a short run program who built up championships playing in a 6 team conference with Missouri, both Kansas teams, and Oklahoma before they started paying players.
>>68039069
Alabama is probable, but no fun. Watson is pretty much all Clemson has returning. Ditto for Ohio State/Barrett. They'll both be fielding very young defenses.
Anybody else miss the feeling when you wake up early on a Saturday, crack open a cold beer, fire up the grill to make breakfast, and turn on Gameday knowing that the whole day for the next 16 hours will be full of College Football?

>inb4 that other guy
You mean Bob Devany and frank Solich? They proved to experience plenty of success for Nebraska. Steve Pederson fired a coach that would have kept the Huskers on top. So no, we were not a one-coach wonder.
>Michigan won three straight in 2002-2004 iirc. They've accomplished something this century.
and how mahy of those were shared? It's easy to win a conference when you can get assblasted by your rival and still emerge as a co-champion. Not to mention the beatings they took in the Rose Bowl. Speaking of which, Nebraska had a Heisman winner and played in the national title game in the 2001 season. They also had one of the best defenses in nearly every metric in 2009. Nothing big, but notable.
>We have no draw for coaches because their has been zero chance for us to draw in a big name.
Enlighten me on who we could have hired. There wasn't shit for open coaches. Plus, Eichorst said they only interviewed one guy. They could have pushed for someone better if they were actually good at their jobs.
>>68039162

It would suck, it would just turn into everyone arguing about who's a blooblood after 10 mins
Will he win it?
>>68039143
And how does that bar us from our current blue blood status? They maintained consistent winning seasons before Devany arrived to take them to the next level. The Sooners were the exact same way, they just emerged a decade earlier than us. Why are you trying to establish arbitrary time frames in which you must meet to acquire blue blood status? The achievements are there and that's what matters.

>>68039231
A loss is a loss. Bottom line is, all Michigan has accomplished is not-so-fulfilling co-championships and rose bowl losses, aside from the 2011 Sugar Bowl.
Every team has their down years. Michigan benefitted from a landscape that got a boost from not having a CCG. That's gone now. Michigan has to get by Ohio State and Michigan State to accomplish anything substantial.
>>68039249
Scored more than Michigan State
>>68039241

>>68039249

>>68039235
Subjectively? The facts and statistics I have provided shows more objectivity than any morons I have argued with today. Nonetheless, if Nebraska is not back to conference championship territory by 2020, then I may come to agree with us falling away. Because by then, many of our top spots would have fallen out of place anyways.

>>68039246
>Implying Princeton was good a few times
Princeton was a dominant force at the beginning of the game. Dominance is required to maintain blue bloods status, or else you will fall out pretty quickly. Minnesota was good for a decade, but had several bad seasons in between. Pitt was good once every 15 years or so. Nebraska was a juggernaut for 30 years. Big difference.
>>68039300
So we are done here then.
>>68039298
No, I'm at work. Last midnight of my hell week. Then one day off, 3 day lights, 3 days off, 4 night turns, then 7 days off.
>>68039259
Fair, but we won the B1G outright in 2003. It's been a rough decade for us too.
i need a new team to shamelessly bandwagon this season lads, who do i pick? Obviously it has to be a contender

The choice is clear.
>>68039337
having a defense helps, but even a decent defense (which ill maintain OU had last year) can make a few lucky stops pull off a chip run. That being said Oklahoma can't do anything like that, it simply goes against OU's karma

k
>>68039383
Dominance is required, yes. We dominated for 30 years. We meet that criteria.
I said possibly by 2020 because those statistics I mentioned earlier may not consist of top-10 (or top5) placements by that time, but i could be wrong. I have numbers behind my reasoning. What do you have?
>>68039369
>>68039418
27 nattys?
>>68039451
For Princeton, yes. Also the number of wins they have solidifies that. Nebraska spent 28 straight years being ranked in the AP poll, and never had a season below 9 wins. The amount of conference championships they claims is also staggering, not to mention the 5 national titles and 2 heisman winners, along with many heisman finalists. And the pinnacle of it all was the 1995 team, the greatest team in history of college football.
Dominance is an understatement.

>>68039526
I'm just saying that it's inevitable. Michigan has a good coach who can recruit like a motherfucker. The Game is always bigger when both teams are ranked high and both have only 1 or no losses.
>>68039539
It should be an interesting year in the B1G. Last year's game was frankly a disappointment though. No doubt you guys had the better team and should have won, but it was a lot more one-sided than it should have been.
>>68039560
Michigan was down. They're coming back though. Harbaugh did a great job with what he had to work with. His first recruiting class was a surprise. I imagine we will see a good portion of those guys start right away and make an impact. I really believe that they'll get 9 or more wins and quite possibly hand the Buckeyes their collective ass if they so much as come out a little sluggish.

1) The math is technically sound.
2) The current Big 12 contract was negotiated with the old 12 teams, so by keeping the current line-up, they are (a) splitting up 12 teams worth of revenue amongst 10 teams, and (b) TCU and WVU took slightly less until this year.
3) Dennis Dodd is a fucking moron who doesn't know dick about football, reading his columns is like it's written in crayon. He's a trash writer and CBS Sportsline is generally an inferior site.
Other than that, you're good.

I mean, they're making a shit-ton off the LHN but that's not sustainable, I'm sure they'll change their tune when it comes time to renegotiate their ESPN deal for the conference. There's no way the deal is good with WVU in the conference vs the Denver and STL media markets, which they lost.
Give it time.

App State is a different creature. Even if they're SBC they'll always have a good team by virtue of being the one consistently good program in North Carolina. Honestly App State deserves to be in a better conference like CUSA.

Try winning the SBC a couple times first, you literally just got here.

With the exception of the FCS to FBS transitions, every team in CUSA was pulled up because of success (well, maybe not UAB, but they've improved over time).

They do, but if you're a bro and I'm a bro, and I say "STFU or I'll stick an umbrella up your ass and open it," we both recognize that, while perhaps hilarious, that's not likely to happen IRL.
In an actual internet community (read: not just /b/ros), threatening to rape someone is not cool because (1) you might not be joking, you psycho asshole, and (2) that's far more likely to have actually happened to her than to you.
Much like threatening a RL shooting (DO NOT CONDONE), it's extremely fucking uncool anywhere on the internet including here. However, this is /sp/, so please bend over for this umbrella.

Not really, there's a bit more overlap. The SEC, CUSA and Sun Belt have largely the same geographic footprint, but of course that doesn't make for good memes.

CUSA has 4 texas teams and a west virginia team, they work better with the "big" 12. Sunbelt is obviously SEC, and the modern ACC is basically just the old ACC + old AAC (Big East), so they go together.

SMU ruined it for everyone, and very specific rules were set in place. Once rules are written down, everything becomes very black-and-white, and they can be skirted. Can't pay a player? Pay his uncle. Can't give a gift? Leave it somewhere they can find it. Etc etc.
>>68051163
If you're talking identity and regionally based then the Sunbelt exclusively is SEC-lite. CUSA is much more spread out, even though it has 4 texas teams.
>>68051244
But don't they leech enough money from the state and academic fees from enrolled students, at least in the South (in states like Alabama or Texas where college football is a demi-religion)?
>>68051250
What's wrong with paying profitable players? From what I read only about ten collegiate athletic programs in the entire United States are profitable ventures and the rest leech of public and student fees, taxes and funds.
>>68051254
Old-CUSA (current AAC) had more of a Sun Belt/ACC overlap, the same continues to hold true. Even ruling out Texas State, the Belt still has schools in North Carolina and Northern Louisiana, which are less SEC, really.
>>68051188
It should be
>>68051287
>what's wrong with paying players
Morally, nothing, since they make so much money for the school and are not compensated beyond getting an education for free. The NCAA's stance, though, is they are amateurs and any compensation jeaopardizes that, that's now they can justify paying them zero-- because to start, opens up a whole new can of worms. How much do they get paid? How should they be compensated beyond cash? If they pay football players, shouldn't they also pay basketball players? Then why not tennis players, golf players? If golf players, why not theater students?
This is why people fear change; answers are hard.

>trash talk is supposed to be sensitive

>>68051381
You meant to reply to the guy I was replying to, but trash talk is always that walk between "funny shit" vs "whoa boy there too far."
You don't hear child molestation bants at games, and there's a reason for that. If all you got is rape jokes, get more creative. You fat chickenfucker.
>>68051372
>Morally, nothing, since they make so much money for the school and are not compensated beyond getting an education for free
There are only one dozen football programs that turn a profit, the rest are subsidized and outright carried out by student athletic fees and state government taxes. Personally I think the most outstanding individual athletes (your star QBs, DBs, WRs or RBs) in power conferences deserve to license and trademark their own identities (determined by just how much merchandise they can move all their own): a second-string linebacker from Iowa State, or any lesser-grade talent from a diminished school isn't owed shit.
>>68051372
There's also the issue that if the justification for paying them is "well we make money off of them", then the natural solution would be "we should pay them in proportion to how much money we've made off of them", and that's also stick too. that would mean star football players would get tons, while walk-on beach volleyball or whatever gets peanuts. then you run into the title IX mentality as well, and people would demand that female athletes should automatically be entitled to the exact same amount as male athletes get, regardless of how much they contribute to the university's athletic profile.
it also would end up drastically changing the way recruiting works, since you'd run into one of two problems. either every university is free to set their own pay rates, and all the talent flocks to the big name schools who even futher cement their long-term status as big schools and drain the talent away from the smaller schools even further. or, the ncaa has to set hard rules for every school's pay rates, which may end up very tough on tiny schools who can hardly afford that many athletic scholarships as-is, let alone having to pay their guys the same as everyone else.
so like you said, it's a sticky situation to get into, and that's why nobody has ever proposed any real solutions that are great. all we can do is complain about what we don't like about how it is, even though we can't fix it.

>>68051487
>and all the talent flocks to the big name schools who even futher cement their long-term status as big schools and drain the talent away from the smaller schools
I agree with all of your points except for this one in particular: four and five-star commitments sign with lesser-grade teams (taking here Ole Miss's recent recruitment as an example here) all the time, since players who don't want to play second-fiddle to an established starter are given the chance to shine and get more exposure than by riding the bench at tOSU or Alabama
>>68051591
>taking here Ole Miss's recent recruitment as an example here)
I'm sure it has nothing to do with wads of cash...
>>68051610
you get the point my man
>>68051591
I'm not saying it would be especially drastic in that case, since the talent that wants to win championships will all go to the same places. It's the rank and file guys that get affected instead. As things are, there are some guys that know they won't ever start for ohio state, but they might at northern illinois. If things change to where they can get paid decently for just being a backup, practice squad, or insurance policy roster filler at the ohio states of college football, then there will be some guys who make that switch, and that will have a domino effect in the lower tiers.

If you threaten to rape a dude online, that's hilarious, because no one actually believes you're going to "rape your face with a mayonnaise jar," or however creative you want to get with the banter.

I think a free market scenario would work best, as the most outstanding players could profit off of their work and dedication over a legion of good, but not great, players. If there's no demand for merchandising rights for a Joe Schmoe from Arizona State then so be it, he should have worked harder if he wanted more money on top of his scholarship

That's too capitalist for some people to swallow though, seeing as how american sports leagues are usually structured in a more socialist fashion, and college sports even moreso. You're essentially asking them to flip the entire scheme on its head and go against everything college sports stood for, or so they believe. If it's that drastic and sudden of a change, they'll fight tooth and nail to resist it.
What I'd like to see instead as a nice compromise but will never happen because of tradition, is essentially killing the concept of college football as the premier level of football underneath the pros. You'd let the NCAA do what they do, and have a proper minor league or d-league setup replace them instead with all the top prospects going there instead, and that league's champions would be the relevant ones instead of the CFP.
That sounds like blasphemy, I get it, but it would mean that the players who are obviously pro-bound would get paid right while getting used to NFL-style systems that much sooner, and the ones that are leftover in the NCAA can solidify its academic integrity again at the cost of its brand power.
It's a solution that can work, it's that nobody wants it to happen. It's a bit of an odd situation we're in, where we demand college football be a huge deal that spends and delivers at a level worth national interest, yet we also want it to still be done in a college way even though that is naturally conflicting. We're asking for two opposing influences to meet in harmony, and unsurprisingly it's not working. Even less surprisingly, any ideas to change it can't reach that harmony either, and that's because the very idea is flawed to begin with. So to me, the best way about it is a clean break, but that's too radical to catch on.

Big 12 "reconsidered" the walk-on rule change and suddenly the vote changed from 5-5 to 7-3
Oklahoma probably threatened to leave the conference if the vote didn't go their way the second time, hopefully they actually had the balls to stand up to Texas and do this.
>>68052580
>Carr
>RichRod
>Hoke
Those programs had issues WAY beyond "not being able to beat Ohio State" that led to their axing.
>>68052617
What is the context?
>>68052663
Baker Mayfield was a walk-on at Texas Tech
Tech claims they were going to offer him a scholarship, but as of the time he left he didn't have one.
he decided he didn't want to be there anymore, transferred to OU. Texas Tech refused to grant him a release so he had to sit out that season and lost a year of eligibility.
Oklahoma proposed a rule change about walk-ons transferring, it died after a 5-5 vote yesterday but was suddenly reconsidered and the vote changed to 7-3, and now Mayfield has his year of eligibility restored.
>>68052738
So the rule change says that walk ons can transfer without penalty from now on?
>>68052617
they should make more threats to get expansion going
>>68052816
That's what I see out of OU from all this, not that mayfield was that important but to test the waters to see how much influence they have over the conference right now in case they wanna start some shit. If OU got BTFO, then it would mean that any fights they might want to start wouldn't turn out well. Now they know where things stand.
>>68052867
Top kek it probably has nothing to do with that
>>68052883
Well no, I believe they still wanted to get mayfield if they could, but it serves a higher purpose too.

>>68052804

I think everybody would agree it's a good rule, schools should not be able to control the movement of walk-ons.
Official playoff predictions:
1. UGA
2. Clemson
3. Alabama
4. FSU
>>68052617
>implying baker Mayfield will use that extra year of eligibility and won't bolt for the NFL asap
>>68053727
Apparently not everybody agrees since it was a 5-5 then 7-3 vote. I know some schools make players sign an agreement that says they won't transfer to a school in the same conference but I figured that was only scholarship athletes
>>68053768
Baker has been getting trashed by scouts for his arm strength and mechanics, doubt he gets drafted in the first three rounds.

Hoke was 1-3, and RichRod was 0-3. The only decent year in that whole stretch we beat you. Harbaugh isn't a 7-5 coach and you won't be up against Michigan teams that lose to Rutgers and have losing conference records anymore.

Title IX doesn't even enter into it; if football makes more money they get paid more, so that becomes unfair to track, diving, golf, softball, regardless of gender. It becomes an issue of paying disproportionately to athletes overall (even amongst just the male athletes), and how is it fair to every other department at school that their on-campus job pays six figures a year and I'm still getting "course credit" and a free coke to work in the chemistry lab.

I wasn't saying that Title IX's legal ramifications would have to enter it, because I'm not sure those even apply (has anyone here even read the whole fucking thing?

>>68055816
I doubt it.
They just don't seem good enough, all the need is a game manager QB though.
Also i see them losing to Notre Dame and Cal, not getting a win over Oklahoma(I know they did last year but it was really flukey).
But 9-3 is possible, I think they'll be 8-4 honestly, with a loss to some other in conference team. They will be back to winning, but if they were contenders it should have showed a little bit last year.
They could pull some magic and become TEXAS again. That is very unlikely though.

>>68052816
Forget expansion, use the threats to, on their face at least, fuck over Texas. Draw another line in the sand at the Longhorn Network. Texas has all but said they're not going to give it up for the Big 12. Really push for it to get blown up and put a conference network in place.
I still think the long plan here is to push until they reach a point where they have a justification to leave. If they make the LHN the hill they die on they'll get what they want regardless because of how Texas views the network. If the conference backs Texas and votes to let them keep the network cite that and leave. If the conference tells Texas to give is up, they refuse, and the conference backs down, claim they're being held hostage by one school and leave because of that. If the conference votes to fold it into a conference network and Texas chooses to leave instead of complying, then you claim that without Texas the whole thing's not sustainable as a major conference and go.
And the grant of rights isn't a huge deal because it likely wouldn't be enforced. It's meant as a form of liquidated damages but functions more as a penalty. Courts don't like penalties and almost never enforce them even if both parties agreed to it. As the GoR effectively makes a school that leaves give up all their remaining tv revenue until it expires you argue that the amount given up is unreasonably high (which it is since you're talking >$100 million being forfeited if someone leaves this year) and therefore a penalty.
The Dawgs have the best football program in the world. We don't lose, only get refballed and cheated out of a win.
>>68057064
At least he's running into the wall and not into another orange and white fucker.
>>68057139
I was thinking about this, looking over the thread today.
If Texas has their own network, what do they even need the conference for, now? 7-10 easy wins a year and the OU rivalry? They're basically an independent already but with a required game against Kansas. When the current Big 12 contract is up, what's their reason to stay?
The alternative is, they realize they're stronger as the core of a power conference (like OSU or Florida), and realize spreading the wealth will make them stronger, pick 2 teams that grow the conference footprint and revenue, and be happy about it.
These are the only two options. Option 2 is the smart move (it's what every other P5 conference has done). Option 1 is the stupid move, and much like Charlie Strong, this is what UT is doing.
>>68056843
Yes
>>68057336
>pick 2 teams that grow the conference footprint and revenue, and be happy about it.
I think that was stated as the hard part, because potential targets wouldn't bring in quite enough revenue to yield a profit once the current money is split 12 ways instead of 10. basically you'd have to look for teams whose value is already above their current average, and that's slim pickins.
>>68057336
>Florida
>Core of the SEC
That's Bama. I'm a Florida fan and it's pretty obvious Alabama is in charge.
>>68056843
It might... Until the grant of rights expires, anyway. Unless there's like a major change in the college football landscape that no one sees coming I can't imagine Oklahoma or Texas staying past then. They're both mostly interested in what's best for them and long-term that's not going to be the Big 12, especially not when they can basically pick which conference they join.
God, I just want to know who's gonna be in the Big 12 next season so I know which expansion team to bandwagon.
>>68057634
Big 12 said they aren't expanding this season
>>68057687
fugg i wanted cincy to make it
do you have a link?
>>68057449
The current TV contract was signed with the old 12 teams, which are now being split 10 ways, yes, BUT, when that contact runs out, they'll have to renegotiate. They'll get more money with 12 teams in better markets, than the 9 shitty ones + Austin they currently have.
>>68057514
Yes, Bama is doing very well this year, and so did Colorado or Nebraska sometimes in the old Big 12, but the premiere programs are the biggest schools with the highest profiles, over time. The UT/OU rivalry makes them the core, as does the UF/UGA rivalry. I know as a Bama fan you want to make everything about you, but your current success will not last, and you still have to live in Alabama.
>>68057634
>>68057687
>>68057724
Someone posted it in the old thread, they said no expansion "at this time," so who the fuck knows.
Can't find it on ESPN.com, but here's the basic info:

>>68057897
Am I being baited
Like I said, I'm a Florida fan, and Alabama has had far more sustained success than UF.
>>68057897
The UF-UGA rivalry is like the 4th best SEC rivalry. Colorado and Nebraska also had lots of good years. Not sometimes. Long sustained success.
>>68058132

Twenty years ago, maybe, the governor at the time made the conference take Tech and Baylor. Presently, if the conference can't decide on who to add, no way will they hurry up their timetable to boot someone.
Besides, if two basketball players committing murder didn't fuck over that school, they're safe forever.

>Brandon Peters (objectively and statistically the best QB in the 2016 recruiting class, it isn't even debatable)
he has like a 1% chance of getting meaningful minutes this year. it's between speight and o'korn, and honestly the qb position is the biggest question mark for this team. peters should be great in the future though.
>Ty Isaac (best RB in the game who will be 100% healthy, unlike the entirety of last year. he will put up 1200+YDs/10+TDs/5.0YPC)
he played himself out of the RB rotation last year. due to fumbles, not an injury. Smith is likely going to get the most carries. hopefully isaac can get it together though... seems a bit soft tbqh
>Sean McKeon (literally a Jake Butt-clone)
class of 2016 3* ...not going to do anything this year.
>Kareem Walker (one of the fastest and most explosive players in football)
great prospect but true frosh that will get minimal carries. honestly if he gets a lot of touches that's probably bad news.
why didn't you mention rashan gary, the #1 recruit in the country, or Jehu Chesson, who is arguably the top WR?
playoffs are a possibility, but MSU and OSU game are both away this year. honestly OSU is probably going back to the playoffs this year. but who knows, harbaugh made huge strides pretty much every single year when he was coaching college football previously. I'm excited to see the new defense. should be exciting.
in the end if we lose to MSU and OSU again, the season is a failure. I don't care if we win every other game and a bowl game. gotta get a rivalry game this year. 0-4 start for harbaugh would be bad.
inb4 >we
Is there any reason for me to feel like the Sooners (or anyone else in the Big 12 for that matter, lets add the Pac 12 to that) can go all the way? Any of these teams actually set to improve? OU's defense can't possibly be better than last year considering the losses (not that they were great) can they? Can the offense be better when the Air Raid is in season 2? Will Ok Lite have a running game? Will Stanford be anything but mccaffrey?
>>68061925
For Oklahoma specifically, Ohio State's probably your biggest stumbling block, since Meyer's great at A. developing young talent and B. performing as the underdog. But, it's a green team in Norman, so you've got a shot at least.
It'll also be fun watching McCaffery carve up the record books again and listen to the SEC homers scream "OUR RUNNING BACK IS BETTER GIVE HIM THE HEISMAN DESPITE HIS SUBPAR STATS" again.

Henry won the award in the game against LSU. Fournette was the heisman favorite coming into the game and was exposed. Henry got up to the occasion in one of the most hyped games of the season. He scored big points in the race that night alone.
>>68062806
I'm not saying that Henry didn't have big moments. I'm saying that overall, his performance was subpar compared to what Watson or McCaffery (MC especially) offered during the season.

Peppers is a fucking meme.
So, my fellow Buckguys, are you hyped up for this season? I think the offense will continue from where they left off last season. JT was playing some good ball in the last two games, and as long as Wariner stays up in the booth to keep Beck from going full retard, I think Barret can put up Heisman-like stats this season. I'm also pretty curious how Schiano will do with a defensive roster that returns so few starters. It's good that he'll bring in some much needed run support, as last season, our rush defense was one of the weaker points, but I'm kind of worried about how the secondary will play with Conley being the only returning starter.

Charlotte has been in the conference for years, it's just football that's new. And I don't have the link in front of me, but I'm pretty sure Old Dominion used to be a member of the Wu-Tang Clan, so that's important.

this. As FBS upstarts, ODU in inferior to GS and App.
ODU had little success in FCS, including 0 (zero) championships, while GS had 6 and App had 3.
All ODU has going for it is being located in the meme tidewater region

i mean, we didn't have a team from 1941-2008...

plus Taylor Heinicke won the FCS Heisman 3 years after they started up
>>68070422
ODU is a fine program.
My point is that GS and App have significantly more success historically, so THIS guy
>>68064095
saying that CUSA doesn't take schools that are "new" is stupid.

Will he be elite?

Idk man, I sure hope so. He hits like a truck and is a living tackling clinic. I miss him already.

>>68070422
CUSA resources are better than SBC resources. They'll get better faster, and 100% of CUSA's bowl tie-ins are higher profile than SBC's.
>>68070555
Trips checked, and I didn't say CUSA didn't take "new" schools, only that they /wouldn't/, because Charlotte was already a member, ODU has a mighty fine basketball tradition, and ULL/ASU have shown sustained FBS success while App/GS have not.
But hey, if expansion/realignment isn't happening for another 1, 2 or even 3 years, all of this is meaningless anyway. 2-3 SB champions hips will go a long way.

He'll fit right in. Thanks famn.

Should I check this?
Anyway. Enjoy.
>>68070155
Well Charlotte did get kicked out of CUSA for a couple of years because the chancellor refused to add football. But the old ties are the reason they got back in when they finally added the sport.
>>68071737
That and an outstanding basketball program.
And possibly a desire to not get surpassed by East Carolina, App State and Coastal Carolina simultaneously.

How butthurt will America be?
>>68038784
Why not call it the PAC 45? You could lump in Hawaii and SDSU. Maybe throw UC-Davis and San Fran State into the mix too? Just spitballing.
>>68074918
Ignore the troll, you'll only encourage it.
Anyway, see you in the new thread, and on the field in 2016. GAMETIME.
