FSU are apparently looking at somewhere in the $100m range to fire Norvell and his staff, as well as pay any new coach. No wonder he has lasted so long without getting sacked.

He has lost the players

 

[AJ_2000]

Yellow Jackets (aka the nerds) making history with their 7-0 start.

Games remaining in the ACC are Syracuse, Boston College, North Carolina State and Pittsburgh (tough one) with a game against Georgia to close the season.

Georgia Tech football makes history not seen since 1966 with win over Duke

The Georgia Tech football team continued a special season on Saturday, when the squad defeated Duke. Georgia Tech is 4-0 in the ACC.

[Glenn_]

Bama with a trap game on the road to SC , after creating SEC history with 4 ranked wins in consecutive weeks.

 

[aussiedude]

Delaware should of punted again, but dead ball foul after the 3rd down and the drive ends in a TD. Amazing how often it happens. teams about to punt get a flag and end up going all the way down the field

 

[aussiedude]

wow what a TD grab by Missouri State. and a RB endzone sideline catch

EDIT: they finally put the highlight up

 

[aussiedude]

Sunbelt kinda tried midweek games lastyear but didnt commit to it with the midweek funbelt.

but C-USA are all in on Weekday C-USA with midfield logos this week. feels like that will make it theirs for October again next year. dont think they will do it November since its owned by Midweek MACtion

 

[aussiedude]

why are delaware throwing. but thats a soft flag to take away 50yds on the INT return.

 

[aussiedude]

that Missouri st backup RB has had a good night. would like to see him involved more, had 2 great pass downs

 

[aussiedude]

New Mexico State what are you doing. Ball caught on the far edge of FG range with 21sec left 4th down and let the clock run down for Mo St to use a timeout then use your last one to ice the FG kicker.

I think its a 50yd FG im calling timeout and if he missed i get a couple of shots to get into FG range.

MO ST Kicker missed and onto OT

 

[aussiedude]

Missouri St win in OT on a great pick. who then fumbled because he tried to run it back, but DL recover. insane play

flag was thrown but after like 2mins they picked it up

 

[aussiedude]

Both Missouri St and Delaware 4 win teams but ineligible for bowls as they are both year 1 in FBS.

Stupid rule

Fox's College Football Playoff expansion pitch sounds a lot like Big Ten's

Speaking at the In The Arena event, Fox Sports CEO Eric Shanks pitched a 24-team College Football Playoff originally floated by the Big Ten.

awfulannouncing.com

Not like we didnt know Fox ran the Big10. but funny to see it so open

 

[gaskin]

Ridiculous roughing the passer call on 3rd down against Virginia Tech gives Cal the chance to tie the game with 2 and a half minutes to go. They do tie it.

 

[gaskin]

VT miss the go ahead FG with just over a minute remaining.

 

[gaskin]

Targeting call overturned against VT with 12 seconds on the clock that would have put Cal comfortably inside FG range. Now they are right on the edge of it.

 

[gaskin]

Cal miss the FG so we are going to OT here.

 

[gaskin]

VT win in 2OT. Cal can consider themselves a bit unlucky. On 2nd down in the 2nd period of OT, VT had another targeting call overturned but there still should have been a foul. The receiver got hit way after the play was dead.

 

[Dirty Bird]

I was thinking about NIL earlier this week.

Obviously I dont like it, as it creates an imbalance.

People think powerhouses like Texas, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State etc. Will advantage with this. But I think others will too.
Schools like Indiana with huge alumni base.
But other schools with high education prestige like Vanderbilt. There'd be money in their alumni base they can bring teams together.

I wonder whether it could create fun in playoffs as there's more schools who can get there and build a team that can compete.

I do fear schools like Texas or Ohio State have so much money it'll completely ruin it.
And although my school will never compete at that level so it's sapping (We're looking like an 11-2 team and it'd be a failure lol)
I do wonder whether schools like Indiana, like Vanderbilt can solidify themselves near the top and really create a fun season in some ways.

fwiw - I just want all 10 conference champs in the playoff. I think that'll be good too. More schools that can be appealing which can hinder schools like Ohio State hording talent. Why be 3rd string there only to play senior year, when you can be starter at Memphis.

I also wonder whether it can create an imbalance in FCS. Could we see an Ivy League resurgence?

i was reading something today where Ohio St think they have a disadvantage with recruiting because of Big Noon games and having big games like Penn St or Michigan where they would bring in a bunch of prospects might not be able to make it. with them having to take a redeye flight after their high school game on the Friday and then get in for the game at noon on Saturday. especially recruits from California and Florida were mentioned.

There is a NIL cap coming in and stricter guidelines for 3rd party deals like a kid getting $1m for doing a couple of TV ads or whatever for the local dealership. But big schools will always find ways around them.

But the gap between the rich and poor schools is going to grow. but most of those SEC schools are poor and cant spend with the big names like Oregon, Ohio St, Michigan.

The Ivy league are from this year rejoining the FCS playoffs as an AQ.

The only way all 10 conference champs get in is if they expand to 32 teams. because the the Big10/SEC have so much money and power from TV and use TV deals as propergander against the rest to pump up their schools.

 

[TRUMAN#1]

Damn. Missouri comes up short.

Last play was a hail Mary pass that just failed to get over the line. caught with inches to the end zone, with time running out.
