    What if the Big Ten isn't all that and a bag of chips this year?

    Someone like Cignetti.

    Indiana beat Oregon last year. They should have taken them as seriously as we took Oklahoma.

    New Bloods VS Blue Bloods

    Being 12-0, ranked #1, dominating #9 Clemson, going up 31-0 on #3 Georgia in the blackout game, and shutting out Auburn will do that. Florida would go on to win the National Championship after an early season close loss to Ole Miss. Georgia feels like that Florida team this year.

    What if the Big Ten isn't all that and a bag of chips this year?

    You left out Mississippi State's ranking of 49 and are dividing the sum of 15 values by 16. The SEC's mean ranking is 23.38 including MSU. However, the arithmetic mean of an ordinal ranking is a bad measurement. Median is a better measurement, in which SEC is 20, and B1G is 37.5 Either way...

    Bama vs. Indy in the Rose Bowl - Jan. 1

    Has Alabama ever played a game like this before? I'm struggling to remember ever going against a historically atrocious team with a #1 ranking and perfect season on the line in the postseason.

    Bama vs. Indy in the Rose Bowl - Jan. 1

    One of the first things Cignetti said after winning the Big Ten was ruminating on how he would bring his team back down to Earth for the playoff run. There is more Saban in him than I want to see on the other sideline.

    What if "Deep State" really doesn't exist? (link)

    The Church Thread: Chapter I Verse I

    The idea that we could be tortured forever for behaving in the way that could have been expected by someone that knew what we was doing when he created us never quite made sense to me. God taking responsibility through his son does make sense, but if I'm going to be tortured forever for...

    Saigon falls, 50 years ago today 4/30/75

    58000 seems inconsequential for something like existential crisis like a European nation in ww2 but for a war for sphere of influence, I guess it makes more sense to be bothered by. If I had not already known the number, I would have expected casualties in the millions by the cultural impact in...

    Question: Windows 11 upgrade, yes or no

    I have multiple machines running Windows 10 and was highly apprehensive about "upgrading" functioning systems for no benefit. I had been delaying the inevitable for months. Then I got a new Windows 11 system and it seemed 'ok' so I upgraded one of my infrequently used systems that I could...
