  1. They might, but that's what it would be....a screwing.
  2. I love howwith Bama we6re just pretending the only performance that counts is the last one. We don't have to count the loss to TX by 10 points AT HOME or the crap performance against USF, or barely squeaking by a terrible Arkansas team, or needing a miracle to beat a bad Auburn team. This is college football, where all the games are supposed to matter.
  3. This is the most logical outcome. SEC isn't the dominant force it has been, most of the SECs best wins are against other SEC teams, so there's no way to know how good they take are this year.
  4. There's no way to know. They only play each other. The one time Alabama played a tough out of conference game, they got whipped at home by Texas. The SEC is a tautology of college football dominance.
  5. If FSU wins, I think it should be Michigan, Washington, FSU, and Texas.
  6. I think those are two different arguments. Ranking vs predicting future match ups. To be clear, I'm not saying I agree with Flo's ranking process on this issue; I don't.
  7. I'm ready to say it (I know I'm not the first): Meyer Shapiro, 2023-24 NCAA champ at 157 lbs.
  8. BTW, here's Comer saying, out loud, that "we can bring these people in for depositions or Committee hearings, whichever they choose." And then, when ol' Hunter took him up on it, that changed. WEIRD! The man is just seemingly constantly searching for rakes to step on.
  9. That is, of course, not true. Extensive reporting on this matter to show these were loan repayments from monies Joe lent to Jim on a short term basis, once in July of 2017 and once in January of 2018 (and that even elides past the part it's alleged to have occurred when Joe Biden was a private citizen). https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/31/politics/fact-check-evidence-supports-democrats-case-that-joe-biden-made-a-personal-loan-to-his-brother/index.html https://www.factcheck.org/2023/10/cherry-picking-influence-payment-from-james-to-joe-biden/ https://www.newsnationnow.com/danabramslive/abrams-comer-biden-bombshell-check/
  10. ....I believe he is saying Hunter Biden is a person of privilege, you weirdos, lol. Even if you don't believe in "white privilege", are you now claiming that Hunter Biden is not a person of privilege?
  11. Many reasons. The Occam's Razor reason would be it's way to most directly tell his story without requiring "spinning" from either side. if it's just him talking, nobody can "misquote" him. It will just be "Hunter Biden says 'X'", not "Jim Comer says Hunter Biden said 'Y'" or "Jamie Raskin says Hunter Biden said 'Z'".
  12. Literally BOTH sides did this after the Archer hearing (and every private hearing). And yes, I would like to just hear the man speak for myself. As would Republican Senator Josh Hawley, apparently. I note you avoided the part about the people from the other end of the political spectrum simply refusing to acknowledge the subpoenas or testify at all.
  13. Spin away, boys. Bannon, Jim Jordan et al all literally refused any questioning at all, and that was ok. Now Hunter Biden is literally offering himself up to you in public and you're like "nah, we need this behind closed doors". This is not a criminal trial. Meanwhile the committee of Republican bulldogs is afraid that ol' crackhead Hunter Biden will slap them around in a public hearing? Nah, they'd rather have it behind doors where it can be leaked out piecemeal and spun without any context. Truly amazing times.
  14. I've mostly avoided politics the last few weeks, but LOL at these buffoons. Look at me and Josh Hawley agreeing on something!
  15. If the only standard is "better than PSU" than yes, they and everybody else is going to fall way short this season. Given all of the context, coming off suspensions of multiple high level wrestlers, on the road, on national TV, and as betting underdogs in some books, I think they looked great.
  16. The name of the game is recruiting and you get better results with champs and high AAs, and you do that by putting the best guys at their optimal weights, and the other guys fill in. I think Gabe Arnold has the potential to be special, whereas the evidence says Kennedy is good but not special.
  17. The other way to look at it is that Iowa got at least 1 takedown in 6 matches, and Iowa State in 5. Even in the matches where they were outgunned, like 165 and 285, they were still working and taking shots. Gaitan likely gets teched if Kennedy isn't coming off injury, he's not typically a gasser. Even at 133, Teske was attacking and taking shots....he's just not that great, especially at 133.
  18. Same as all takedowns: "beyond reaction time".
  19. Hand touch is no longer a rule.
  20. Exhibit 1 million of our sport's most fan friendly and exciting form of team competition and why it should be used to determine our team champion.
  21. Gabe's success is the primary focus, he should only be wrestling 174.
  22. The coaches in this gif are the Iowa coaches.
