the smile on that bird is mischevious as hell

absolute hilarity

Lego Star Wars instilled this as well as leaps of faith

This is a game we don’t even know the real rules for

Have you not seen the animated classic The Road to El Dorado?

fwiw, I personally think that coonskin cap UT did use Pruitt as a scapegoat. But they fired him for cause, and to quote Sam O’Nella “I’m mad butt hurt isn’t a valid reason for prosecution”

I know this won’t interest most lemmy users, but the forums for most large american colligate sports programs are alive and well.

Hard disagree. As long as a certain width is achieved, height should be maximized.

Saving this thread so I can see all the alabummer roasts

Yup, their argument was “it prevents teams from losing out on the championship because of a freak occurrence or injury”

“4th and 5. Bracket Reset on the line.”

Me seeing health & ammo: Great I really need this

Me in the next room on my 40th attempt at the end boss: Well I can’t use that yet, what if there’s a harder boss later?

Why are we trying our best idea second?

Yeah but the teams in the ncg both lost to terrible teams, ND especially. I think anOSU fans will genuinely still consider this a spoiled season 10 years down the road because they lost the game. And in my mind, that has GOT to be enough to keep a team from being the best in the nation. If we won every game except florida, I would enjoy the NC, but I would still look back at the season as a faliure. The media moguls don’t understand this. And I can’t reasonably vote against this. At the end of the day, I’m still a cfb sicko, and I will watch the playoff as it continues to expand, even though its not what I want.

And this has been my argument for years. It’s silly to pretend that all 13-whatever teams in DI-FBS play the same sport. Hell in a conference like the B1G it’s silly to pretend that all teams in a conference play the same sport. COLLEGE FOOTBALL DOESN’T NEED A NATIONAL CHAMPION. Let the teams play against their regional rivals. The fans and students are manic and show true hate (in a mostly controlled way) in these games, and that is so dang fun. 2022 TSIO was the essentially the first time in my life that that game had the same national implications that it used to, but I’ve never once given a damn about the whole state of alabama. If you really want to argue about who the best team any given year is, argue over it like kids arguing about baseball card stats. But the cat’s out of the bag now, there can be no going back to no cfp and certainly not back to no title game.

I wish I knew, in my mind that’s effectively what the 12 team playoff is anyway. Seeds 5-12 are playing into the tournament. I think kinda like @CMLVI@lemmy.world said, this is solely an ego move from the SEC and B1G.

I’ve never heard of the swiss system before, but I genuinely like the sound of this.
