USC vs Texas A&M

[NittanyLionRoar]

I turned the game off because it was so god awful late and it looked like USC was going to get thrashed.

But then I woke up this morning to see that 6-6 USC won an epic comeback.

SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC!

I wonder how Finebaum is doing this morning?

It seemed like the A&M defense just fell apart the last quarter and a half. I think it was 24-7 A&M with 5 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. Giving up 28 points in 20 minutes is bad.

Finebaum does not really care about A&M. He is a big time Bama homer and since they are not in it he is now all in on Georgia. And has been since they won their natty over Bama. It would be epic to beat Georgia and hear his reaction. He absolutely thinks Franklin is a terrible coach and Smart is the next Saban so that result would rock his world.

Finebaum likely doesn't care like 99% of people
There's 7 games left that matter. Hopefully it's Big Ten vs SEC x2 with the Big Ten winning both. That's how narratives change. Not two teams playing a scrimmage.

He's praying Georgia wins it all.

Anyone else other than ND which won't happen

Sometimes I wish the Ivy League would get serious about football again and the waves of Billionaires from Harvard, Penn, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, etc would spend SEC boosters into bankruptcy.

I found myself rooting for USC. Even though they are now in the Big Suck, like us they don’t have the stink of this corrupt conference.

Question. Does it mean more when an SEC SEC SEC team loses? Asking for a friend.

Especially, U Penn. They would own the football world.

As we’ve seen in the past year, many of the Ivy League schools are living off of past glories not only in athletics but also in the quality of education that students now get; if you removed the names from the ivy clad buildings, one really couldn’t tell whether you’re at an Ivy League school or the local community college based on the quality of education.

Many of these students and professors now spend more time protesting or defending themselves from radical mobs than in classrooms; it’s a big fraud just to get a piece of paper with Harvard or Columbia on it so that you can get a job just because you went to one of those places regardless if you really learned anything useful.

It has been about the resume for years now. Decades.

That’s why parents donate millions to get their kids in.

As they say, it’s now harder to get a B than an A.

 

[Cowbell Man]

It’s almost as if some forget our game last year with the portal and injury protection for the draft. We looked terrible on D. The bowl game teams bear little resemblance to the season team. Wash State last night…how many not playing? USC vs TAMU?

 

[LandoComando]

Rather play Oregon for the title than OSU.

So we agree...

This conference summary is inaccurate as the SEC is actually only 4-3 (not 5-2) as Tennessee, Oklahoma and Texas A&M have all lost.

Love your dad's saying because it's true. We have a short window to turn it all around. Pray it happens and we can pound insanity back into the cracks of the sidewalk. We haven't seen insanity like what is going on today since WW2 Germany.
