Drew Brees and his teammates had a MASSIVE disagreement.
Drew Brees and his teammates had a constructive conversation.
Drew Brees and his teammates understand each other's viewpoints more than ever
Isn't this exactly what we are striving for?
Education through conversation?
Each Saturday before my shows, I take my daughter Beaux to swimming lessons
This morning we had a Daddy/Daughter date
On the way out she grabs my hand and says....”Daddy, I love you”
I lose it. Tears everywhere
She responds...”What’s wrong daddy? You gotta poop?”
I love kids
Big 10:
"We are not playing football this season"
"Actually, we've changed our minds"
"You have to play 6 games to qualify for Champ game
Actually, we've changed our minds"
"We have a 21 day safety protocol for our athletes"
"Actually, we've changed our minds"
The
@SEC
played.....
The Big 12 Champion
The Big 12 Runnerup
The Big 10 Runnerup
The ACC Champion
4-0 & outscoring them 204-48.
When they go to a 12 team playoff it's just a matter of time before it's 3 or 4 SEC teams in the Final 4.
Not all CFB conferences are created equal
10% chance this Colorado fan
is crying because his favorite team blew a 29-0 lead to Stanford at home.
90% chance he’s crying because he put every single dollar in his checking account on Buffs -12.5 and his girl has NO idea.
Probably both.
Clemson gets their 2nd loss
Ohio State has a player quit in the middle of the game
Oklahoma fans calling for Spencer Rattler to be benched
Florida State is 0-4
Never change CFB, never change.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Coach Harbaugh as he battles the illness of being accused of lying to NCAA investigators.
All we can hope for is a speedy recovery.
Tonight's LSU/Florida game was even more reason why every single game matters in a season.
And even more reason why a team that plays just 6 games can't really be looked at as a serious contender.
Georgia destroying FSU was case study in culture
UGA had reason to be upset about playoff snub
Bulldogs locked in
Seminoles checked out
FSU's success was because of how well they hit the transfer portal
But transfers tend to be mercenaries who value self over team
Caleb Williams tells
@YahooSports
he’s unsure if he’ll agree to appear in EA Sports CFB & he questions the reported flat-fee compensation system.
He also has a message for NCAA leaders: Stop making “stupid rules to affect people instead of protect people”
Buddy, I used to send a memory card to strangers in the mail to download rosters back in the day.
I don't care at all if actual players are used.
Just give me game.
Who ever wants to opt in can opt in.
The College Football Players Association is organizing a boycott of the 2024 EA Sports CFB game,
@Pete_Nakos96
reports😳
The payout for athletes is expected to be $500.
"They should not opt into it. It is just a ridiculously low amount of money."
LSU's embarrassment of Oklahoma won't end the misguided idea of expanding the CFB Playoff, but it should DESTROY the idea of automatic bids for winning a conference championship.
Georgia should be livid
The fact that Michigan who was reprimanded by their own conference for "violating policies that compromised the integrity of competition" is in the playoff & not them
If CFB Playoff has injury criteria, they should have cheating guidelines as well
Just can't happen.
A&M has ever single thing going for them regarding facilities, recruiting, booster support, NIL.....all of it.
You can't go into a near half empty stadium and lose by double digits.
Just can't happen.
Not again.
If we’ve learned anything in this CFB Playoff, it’s that Group of 5 teams ABSOLUTELY deserve just as much right to lose to SEC teams as any other Power 5 teams.
Every single CFB coach right now needs to cut a PSA with this message.
"If you don't take this Virus seriously, there is NO shot in playing football this Fall. The quicker we do all of this, the quicker we can get back to normalcy"
Let's make it happen
Let’s say you thought that Ohio State & LSU both had a solid case for the
#1
seed going into today
There is no way that LSU dominating

Georgia in their home State wasn’t more impressive than Ohio State coming from behind to beat a now 3 loss team

@CFBPlayoff
Top 4
1) Alabama
2) Clemson
3) Texas A&M
4) Notre Dame
As I've said for weeks, a team that plays only 6 games should not qualify for a playoff bid.
ESPECIALLY in this season of all seasons.
Goosebumps.
@UKFootball
leaves the Left Tackle position open for the first play from scrimmage and takes a delay of game penalty in honor of OL Coach John Schlarman who passed away after his battle with cancer.
Vanderbilt declines the penalty.
Emotional day in Lexington.
You want expanded playoffs in CFB?
You got it yesterday
Penn State had a playoff game They lost.
Oregon had a playoff game They lost.
Oklahoma had a playoff game They advanced
Baylor had a playoff game They advanced
Utah had a playoff game.
They advanced
4 is the right #
2020:
Microchip the football. Study it for a year to make sure technology works
2021:
Microchipped football can be used to determine if ball crosses goal line
2022:
Eliminate guessing game of a chain gang. Microchipped football determines exact placement of ball
3 year plan
I mean, if we are willing to forgive Ohio State for a 31 point blowout loss to a 7-5 Iowa but not forgive Alabama for losing to a Top 5 team on the road, why the hell do we even have a playoff?
So quick story....
2 years ago, my life changed forever.
Our daughter Beaux was born on Halloween.
Being adopted, she was the first person I had ever met that I was related to.
I was always pulling for a Halloween baby....thought it would such a cool day for a birthday....
If you can watch that Clemson/A&M game and tell me with a straight face that CFB isn't more fun than the NFL, then I just can't help you.
I just can't.
What a game.
Food for thought:
The CFB Selection committee lists 5 pieces of criteria when determining their rankings:
Strength of Schedule
Head to Head Result
Top 25 Results
Results vs Common Opponents
Tennessee > Alabama is every single category
They’ve played in 11 of the last 12 national championships.
They won 9 of those 12, by 4 different teams.
They have 8 teams ranked in the Top 25 for the 14th time in poll history, something no other conference has ever done even once.
Close the door on the way out please.
Tennessee lost to a GA State team that went 2-10 last year
South Carolina lost to a UNC team that went 2-9 last year
Ole Miss lost to Memphis
Miss St barely beat Louisiana
Arkansas barely beat Portland State.
An abysmal and puzzling Week 1 for the SEC.
Jimbo Fisher makes $26,000 a day until 2031.
Jimbo Fisher makes roughly $1,083/hr.
Assuming a good night's sleep....Jimbo Fisher made $8,666 last night.
God bless the absurdity of college football.

Semifinal Records
@SEC
10-1
Big 10 2-6
The Big 10 lost more semifinal games yesterday than the SEC has lost in the entire 9 year history of the CFB Playoff.
Alabama game w/ LSU gets cancelled:
Saban: "We were certainly looking forward to playing a game, but I think that we kind of expect disruptions this season"
Clemson game w/ FSU gets cancelled:
Dabo: "COVID was just an excuse to cancel game. … To me, FSU forfeited the game"
I'm watching the Missouri Tigers brag about stomping on Ohio States throats. How they were bigger stronger faster. How they just dominated them. Ohio State isn't just embarrassing themselves but the entire Big 10. This isn't good.
It's crystal clear.
MLB needs to step in and vacate the 2017 Houston Astros World Series title.
The Astros had a chance to put it to bed and choked it.
It's the only way to truly end this whole debacle.
Time for Rob Manfred to lead and nip this in the bud.
Every time I've come home from a trip to Mississippi, I'm come home feeling lucky to have been there
Mississippians are some of the most warm & inviting people in the country
Don't let a small vocal minority who are stuck in their ways paint an entire state in a bad light
The
@CFBPlayoff
should be....
1) Clemson
2) Oklahoma
3) Georgia
4) Alabama
Ohio State had their shot, needed to destroy Wisconsin in order to forgive their 2 losses, especially their 31 point loss to a 7-5 Iowa.
Deion is good for college football
Dan Lanning reacting to Deion is good for college football
Lane is good for college football
Fans having monster takes about them is good for CFB
College football is ALL about passion
If I want boring & efficient football I'll watch NFL
As we kick this week, I'm reminded of what I think is the coolest photo in all of sports.
Ben Hogan and Arnold Palmer ripping heaters in the middle of a round of the 1966 Masters.
Legends
I would 100% watch a show of Belichick and Saban doing activities for the first time like normal people.
“On today’s episode of The Retired Life..,.the Boys go grocery shopping for the first time ever!”
I’m still baffled how
@KentuckyMBB
& Kansas have the same exact record (25-6) and Kansas is a 1 seed over UK despite the Wildcats absolutely embarrassing the Jayhawks at home.
It was a beatdown of epic proportions.

Last 2 years, the ACC has gone 4-13 in Bowl games
2 of those 4 wins coming against Eastern Michigan & Temple.
They were 1-9 vs Top 25 opponents.
Last 2 years, the

They were 12-3 vs Top 25 opponents.
I don’t know who my father is, but I know who my Dad is.
He’s the man the adopted me and chose to love me unconditionally before he ever met me and changed my life forever.
Here’s to all the Adoption Dads out there that changed lives with their selfless love and sacrifices.💪

@TheMasters
is the greatest spectator event in sports
Not because of the sport
Not because of the players
Not because of the course
But because everyone is present
With no cell phones allowed, everyone is living in the moment...taking in the sights & sounds
So refreshing
SEC has won 11 of the last 15
National Championships
Top Heavy? 4 different SEC teams have won a title in last 15 years
SEC bias? Most NFL draft picks by conference 15 years straight.
People fear what they don't understand and hate what they can't conquer.
Theory of man.
If you don't have a dog in the fight between the Bills & Bengals today, you HAVE to pull for Cincinnati.
You do not want to give the NFL a dry run at a neutral site championship.
If you open that door, they're bid it out and ruin the best game environment they have each year.
If a draftable player wants to opt out of a non playoff bowl game, I understand.
If a draftable player wants to play to play in a non playoff game, I love it.
Can it be this simple or am I doing this wrong?
No conference in the HISTORY of college football has ever done this. Have 8 teams ranked in the top 25.
This is the 14th time it's happened in the SEC.
It's imperative Michigan AD Warde Manuel resign from the
@CFBPlayoff
selection committee IMMEDIATELY
You can't have a sitting Athletic Director of a team reprimanded by it's own conference for unfair competition issues be a part of this process
Full stop
Must happen
In the last 48 hours:
Auburn beats Alabama
Florida Hires Dan Mullen
Miss State job opens
A&M fires Sumlin
Arkansas fires Bielema
Tenn hires then doesn’t hire Greg Schiano
Alabama basketball plays 3 on 5 and nearly beats a ranked team
Michigan went from
1) This totally didn't happen
2) Even if it happened, it's not a big deal
3) Yes, we did, but everyone does it
4) We are the real victims
5) WE WILL SUE!!
6) Okay...We accept the penalty
Hell of a roller coaster ride
Thru the 1st 65 picks,
@UKFootball
has had more players drafted than the following teams:
Ohio State
Clemson
Florida
USC
Texas
Oklahoma
@UKCoachStoops
continues to be one the best coaches in developing talent.
While understandable, we have to remember we didn’t have to have a 4 team playoff this year.
In February of 2022, the 3 members of “The Alliance” (ACC/B10/Pac12) all voted against expanding the CFB Playoff earlier than 2024.
