Bama akso beat Georgia this year, nd has no win near that. And yepper, they need to be in a conference and quit scheduling so many cupcakes.
App State at 5-7 agreed to play Ga. Southern. These teams are big time rivals, and they're doing a rematch from just a few weeks ago. So the Birmingham bowl is a battle of two conference rivals.
At least it is now in the new downtown stadium with some nice bars and restaurants around, instead of that old crappy stadium in the ghetto.
Is Birmingham that bad? I mean . . . it's not Shreveport. Only been there once, but thought it was a decent town. Pretty good BBQ.
That’d be the ultimate. I think I’m going to start a business promising steaks and then canceling the orders. When customers want their money back, I’m going to suggest they forgo the refund because I saved them so much money.
50 guys that will never see the field next year. Do you think any of the portal players are going to be sitting on the bench? It's just pointless unless you are breaking in a new scheme or a new QB. This isn't 25 years ago when it made sense to get that extra game in. Now, you take this year's team and you put it in the blender with new ingredients and it's a new team.
A quote from the article in post 30 "This decision was not taken lightly, but with our coaching staff transition and several uncertainties regarding player availability, I felt it was not in our best interest to try to field a team that was not representative of Kansas State University," Taylor said Meaning they expect players to enter the portal because of the coaching change and they don't want to get embarrassed by those that stay. Also at 6-6 it would have been a crappy bowl with poor attendance that would be a net loss for the program.
Until Notre Dame joins a conference, they should never get the benefit of the doubt. They think they are special, but this ain't the 60's or 70's anymore. Beef up your schedule and start playing teams year after year and see how you stack up. Otherwise, shut up!
