2024 College Football šŸˆ

Iā€™m hoping someone can explain this Old Dominion trucking ad in a way that wonā€™t make my blood boil:

I actually cut off a few schools on the left side: Bama, AZ At, Auburn, Mizzou, Nebraska, CHeat.

See that Niners arenā€™t one of their college sports partners. Not sure what the criteria is for that to happen, especially since ODFL is headquartered in Thomasville, NC.

Iā€™m not even upset about that.

Unless Iā€™m blind, they donā€™t have a single G5 or mid major outside of Gonzaga on that list and they refer to it as college sports, like itā€™s all encompassing.

Yep. Whatever the ODFL criteria is for inclusion, apparently no school outside of the P5 + Zags have met it.

Flipping between games and see a lot of empty seats at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. Thought maybe it was because of todayā€™s Inter Miami vs Atlanta United playoff match, but see thatā€™s in ATL. Of course, the 20 mile distance between HRS in the north Miami suburbs and the U in Coral Gables doesnā€™t help with student attendance at Hurricane ā€œhomeā€ games.

And speaking of the U, apparently a launching defender connecting a forearm hit into a ball carrierā€™s helmet is not a penalty in the ACC. Duke ended up with a TD anyway. Blue Devils 21-17 at the half.

clt says this is the negative impact of supporting college sports.

Heated Postgame Interaction Erupts On Field After Vanderbiltā€™s Win Over Auburn - Athlon Sports

Appears his teammates were aware of that.

Well, see that the first Oregon TD of the game vs Michigan that actually wasnā€™t a TD upon multiple replays by CBS Sports - but not reviewed by game officials or the Big Ten - didnā€™t affect the final outcome.

I donā€™t think Indiana is getting enough run. This is a CFP team.

I know I feel a lot better about our game up there this year. This yearā€™s schedule is brutal. Yet we are still our own worst enemy for most of the season.

With Penn State losing today, gotta think Hoosiers crack the top 10. Who would have thought that in November weā€™d be saying that about IU football instead of hoops?!

Funniest thing I heard today, at the beginning of the Mich-Or game, announcer Gary Danielson said of the Mich QB, ā€œhe was a starter, then was benched after a bad game and demoted to the 3rd string backup and now heā€™s the starter again, you donā€™t see that often at allā€ I said out loud, ā€œum yeah, I do, every weekā€
