Even the NFL has mismatches opening weekend. Got to keep G5 programs viable

I disagree. They are still going to buy talent of course, but Golding is no Kiffin.

They hired a solid OC. They will be fine
Our problem is us. We dont fund the program to compete in the SEC

I am not going to include Vandy because they are private and don?t know their situation but I know Ark, State and UK have been the least funded programs since NIL and there is a reason the 3 of us have been at the bottom the last few years.

Committee has no choice. Anti-Trust legal issues compel G5 be included

Only thing committee could have done is put in Duke over JMU. But Duke had 5 losses. Blame the ACC commissioner and all of the commissioners honestly.

There is no law that says that and there has been no antitrust action taken. The Committee better find their cojones before the sports fans say enough of this shit. If they are that afraid of POTENTIAL litigation then they better figure out a different framework.

I also think these conferences should change a tie breaking rule that it should be the highest ranked team. The fact Duke was playing in the ACC title over Miami was just ridiculous. Having this rule applied along with expanding the field to 16 would prevent this. If that had been the case this year we get to add ND, Vandy, Texas, Utah and BYU and scrap JMU. That would?ve been a much better playoff.

Since State can?t afford to fund the program at SEC level, what lower level conference do you think State should apply to join?

We cant. We have to hold on to the SEC as long as possible to get that SEC Welfare check as long as we can.
Our stupid fans want to fire Lebby when he has bottom of the SEC NIL and bottom of the SEC staff. It's insane

Here?s something else for our fans, A&M wins by 2 TDs today with Shapen at QB.

They're going to miss Kiffin's play calling and portal evaluation ability long term. And then add in a more difficult schedule and I would say that the odds that they decline are really high. Kiffin is taking most of their scouting dept. to LSU.
That said, we do need to focus on us. If we do that we will be right there with them in the future.

Yeah, I don't think so. Miami had 7 sacks on a guy that can move. That cross wind was hell on QBs with much better arms than Shapen. I've only saw one love afffair stronger than yours of Shapen... jans for jones.
Let's just say you're right though... they wouldn't have made it to today with Shapen

I would add C34?s love to constantly remind everyone and their mother how poor our school is and how we are at the bottom in every category.

Well it's frustrating when you hear about how we spent about $6MM on assistants and off field personnel in 2025 while Mississippi spent $10MM. When you hear about how they just outbid us for the WR coach. We got people here praying Mississippi will fall back to us when they have so much more infrastructure in place to remain on solid ground than we do. We dont even have any solid ground.
Too many of you have your head in the sand and expecting miracles to happen.

Including a rematch of Tulane and OM, a joke.
