Nebraska: Frost’s hot seat is hotter than ever. His contract buyout drops from $15 million to $7.5 million on Oct. 1.
he's 16-31 and they're gonna give him $7.5m to go away

So much for Texas A&M challenging Bama - A State got another skull for the trophy case.
ND's loss was pretty sad too.
Got to give UK some credit after the long snapper threw the ball into the endzone for a safety, they pulled it together and Florida could not do a single thing on offense for the rest of the game.
Did not make much news outside here, but Eastern KY and Morehead State played a 7 OT game yesterday. EKU's coach had a heart attack a few weeks ago, I hope he is ok after yesterday.

As for the Cornhuskers - GET OVER IT...IT IS DONE - it's been 20 years at least since anyone thought of Nebraska as a football power.
It's like Indiana in college basketball, it's OVER.

xp to mookie, I hope we got over the hump with that first Freeman win. We were gifted a strange offsides call on a FG we missed. Felt like we were cursed when that INT got waived by the (correct) targeting call.

That was probably the game of the year at least from what I have seen so far.
Bryce Young is really good. I'm impressed how he is able on the run to square up his shoulders and throw the ball.

Bryce Young is pretty darn good. That throw to put them back in the game against LSU in the 4th quarter was really amazing. Alabama's defense is nearly Big 12 porous though.
I really wanted to put money on Notre Dame on that Syracuse game. Between that one and the Clemson game some Irish fans made some money on their favorite apps the past couple weeks.
― earlnash, Monday, 7 November 2022 00:56 (one year ago) link
Ole Miss pretty much let Alabama off the hook today. Their running back Judkins is really good. Don't get at all what Kiffen was thinking a couple times having that back especially after he moved them 50 yards down to get into place to win the game calling two QB draws. Same thing earlier in the game they get first and goal running the ball down the Tides throat and then he decides to throw it three times. Kinda dumb but hey Kiffen will probably get some school to pay him more to move on to them (maybe Auburn).

NC and NC St. was a heck of a game today. I'm not so sure about that Tarheel QB Maye as a big pro prospect but the freshman on NC St. team looks pretty good.
Florida and Florida St. so far has been a track meet. Definitely a few future pros on this team. That big 6-7 WR FSU has named Johnny Wilson probably will get some pro interest. Jon Kitna's son is the Freshman backup QB for the Gators and he got in for a few plays when Richardson got hit pretty hard. Richardson's arm is ridiculous. Travis the FSU Qb is a heck of an athlete himself well worth looking for the highlights as he made a killer play avoiding 5 Gators to make a 20+ yard run out of the pocket to the 1 yard line.

It was fun watching the Buckeyes get popped in the mouth. I was watching saying 'go ahead, blitz everyone again'. Terrible coaching, you would think after like giving up 3 huge plays on big blitzes you would learn, but Noooooooooo...there D coordinator thinks he is a tactical genius and this time it will work.

SEC's dominance is built upon a willingness to spend money to win despite sanity (after all what are welfare funds for but building stadiums), but I really think their conference talent is a step above.
I got a feeling OSU (or Michigan) would not be able to run the gauntlet schedule without losing at least 2 or 3 games. I think even this uneven Alabama team is still better and LSU or Tennessee before Hooker got hurt could beat them. Even Ole Miss on a good day probably could beat them.
Georgia could have a bad game or play dumb, but I don't see any of these teams beating them. Michigan might have enough defense if they stay healthy to slow them up a bit and stay in a game.

agree that the SEC is dominant, but . . . i mean nebraska just signed *matt rhule* to an eight-year deal, having just given scott frost a $16.4 million buyout as a reward for being incredibly awful
the money being thrown around -- by public schools, no less -- is absurd, but at least in the SEC they have some good teams

Incredibly momentous for football that Mike Leach has passed away. It is no understatement whatsoever to say that Leach fundamentally changed football forever, and I am not sure there was any more influential coach in the last 40 years, when you include high school and college.🧵— Chris B.

I guess he was technically my "coworker" in washington. I'd see him walking to work a lot, and he'd stop for coffee pretty regularly at the place I'd hang out. I never talked to him but shitty politics aside the baristas liked him and by all accounts he was kind of a fascinating weirdo.

I watched a few minutes of Clemson and Tennessee and decided that was way too much orange for an Orange bowl.
Georgia will probably smoke OSU, but I keep having an odd feeling the Buckeyes might upset them too.
