We actually had a good talk with my roommate.
He tried to use the “It’s that time of the month” argument but it’s been like this ALL MONTH. He said he’ll talk to her about her attitude. But I doubt it

ANGER
I remain quite disappointed in the choices made by the BCS, its voters, and everyone else involved in this abhorrent system. I will watch the UNC bowl game this year, and probably a smattering of others, because it’s football and I’m a sucker, but you won’t catch me dead watching the title game. And not out of some “principle”, either. I just don’t fucking care.

Would both gelp the regular season keep meaning & cut down on this butthurt

Too many times that four would be an injustice.
Take 2008, for instance: even in an 8-team playoff, who do you leave out from among Texas, OU, Texas Tech, USC, Florida, Alabama, Penn State, Utah, and Boise? I’m willing to allow that that’s rare enough that 8 is very unlikely to leave out someone with a legitimate claim, but four is too small.

I think that is still TBD
Depending on the negotiations.
In theory, they’ll get nothing from the Big XII, but they and A&M are hoping to get the same not-so-bad deal that Nebraska and Colorado got. I’m pretty sure that this ensures that every single Big XII member will vote for the most onerous exit fees possible.

They might have bought some grace otherwise but hell no
Suck up to SEC.

It may not have made a difference
If the writing was on the wall that they were going to be on the hook for the full exit fees either way, they might’ve decided in favor of scorched earth.

Yost and Mariucci
are what college hockey arenas should be. For anything but a Michigan game, the atmosphere at Munn is crap. (The clowns at Lawson take it a bit too far; they spend more time coming up with obscene and not-funny ways to mock the opponent than they do actually paying a damn bit of attention.)

It's really weird when you're there, though.
Like a goddamn library. I wasn’t really into the one game I saw there, but a friend who went to UND said that if you weren’t in the student section, people around you routinely told you to shut up and sit down if you were making noise when play wasn’t stopped.

I went there in something like '03 or '04 over Thanksgiving.
Got good seats with my friend (a U-Minn student) because most of the students were out of town. Given that it was a holiday weekend, I was seriously impressed with the crowd. Would love to get there for a game when the whole student section is there.

To be fair
I haven’t been to a game in a few years.
Last time I was there, they were busy being swept by Mankato, and even the students didn’t give a shit (I was in the section next to them). I imagine the crowd is much better now that Lucia seems to have turned a corner.

I'm hopeful that Lucia has figured out the post-lockout landscape of hockey, but I'm not confident.
That said, a good Mariucci game is as loud as any sporting event I’ve ever attended. It’s true that only-one-side-cares games can be less spectacular.
You are wrong.
I’ve been there for a game, over the Thanksgiving holiday break. And it was louder than anything I’ve been to at Munn other than a Michigan game. (Granted, they have more than twice the seating capacity we do.)

Today was a good day to release coaches (with the other shitstorm going)
Frsno State got noticed though (I’ll miss Pat Hill)
Were you getting 9 blowjobs at once?!
I still can't believe they fired Hill.
Seriously, of all the things that happened this weekend, that’s the most surprising to me.

I didn't see bitterness in that comment.
Instead it read like he was treating a dumbass troll the way a dumbass troll deserves to be treated.
I was just saying he was great for CFB. No need to get pissed for asking a question.

Inconsistency killed OSU
Margin of victory isn’t counted for computers, but it does for voters. OSU had 4 games decided by 2 touchdowns or less, including a loss to a ~30 point underdog and a 1 point squeaker to Texas A&M. 0 for Bama outside of the overtime loss to LSU. Every other game was dominated. And like it or not, Bama benefited a lot from LSU’s historic season. With Bama/LSU playing so close in our matchup, every dominating win LSU put together over a quality opponent rubbed off a little bit on Bama in the minds of the voters. The end result was that in many people’s eyes Alabama and LSU were clearly the best two teams in the country.
I’ll admit OSU had a better resume statistically when you look at things like top 25 wins. Luckily for Bama, the BCS is more subjective than looking at a top 25 wins spreadsheet, and the average voters didn’t give too much weight to OSU having a couple more wins vs 7-5 teams as opposed to 6-6. The OSU body of work argument seems a little like saying your poo smells better than my poo… outside of maybe 2 teams each, just how quality are any of these “quality” wins? Texas and Auburn as top 25 wins? Those are joke wins vs joke teams. Wins vs Tulsa, Louisianan Lafayette, and Missouri (i.e. teams with a ‘winning record’) are supposed to be feathers in your cap? And if you watched that game Saturday, Oklahoma was not a good football team by any stretch of the imagination. They laid a complete egg. That win was much more like a win against the team Texas Tech bitch slapped than a win vs a top 10 team. Seriously, does anyone not think Bama is sitting at 12-0 with Oklahoma State’s schedule? I’m not saying OSU wouldn’t have a chance against bama, but I don’t think anyone on their schedule would.
Yea, was an argument for Oklahoma State for sure. And they almost got in. There were arguments for Bama. We did get in. But why hate on Bama or the BCS? The reason OSU got screwed (and they did get screwed, not because Bama got in but because the system is inherently unfair) is because other major conferences rejected the SEC’s +1 proposal. It’s your own damn fault that you have an all sec championship.
"Those are just facts and facts are just opinions and opinions can be wrong"
-Veronica, Better Off Ted
From where I'm sitting
It’s not as much as Alabama doesn’t deserve to be there (cuz they do), it’s more people want to see a different game. We don’t like rematches.
I have no problem with it, and I’ll watch the game (rooting for LSU, no offense). Bama’s a damn good team, and probably better than OSU. And had a better year than OSU.
It's time to switch to whiskey, we've been drinking beer all night.
Complete logical failure.
Your first paragraph, you poo-poo OSU’s close wins, and crow about Alabama dumptrucking opponents. Mighty opponents such as Kent State, Mississippi, Mississippi State, Georgia Southern, and not-so mighty opponents like Auburn and Tennessee and whatever other SEC East punching bags you stomped on.
Your second paragraph, you dismiss OSU destroying an 8-4 team whose only losses were to OSU, Oklahoma, Houston, and Boise. And then, after that, you basically try to make the argument that… oh, boy… Oklahoma sucks because Oklahoma State crushed them into jelly?
So, you’re winning close games is bad, but beating the shit out of teams that can’t keep up with you is bad, too. I’m curious, what sort of margin of victory qualifies as a good win?

Oh they beat Tulsa? An 8-4 team! Wow. Pencil them in New Orleans!
And Oklahoma folded like a cheap lawn chair. OSU breathed on him, and Landry Jones gift wrapped 14 points for State. And they gave up. If you really think that was a quality team out there, and you watched the game, you’re a fool.

I mean, it's one thing if a great defense forces bad plays,
but it’s another when the opposing quarterback is tossing back multiple balls for you to carry into the endzone with his butterfingers. That team was playing with all the inspiration of a fucking amoebae.

And OkSt's opportunistic defense had absolutely nothing to do with this, naturally.

I don't really think OSU players and current coaching staff
Had a ton to do with rejecting the +1 proposal.
Also, I’m getting tired of dealing with well-intentioned Bama fans trying to justify their team’s BCS berth. It really comes off as trying to convince yourself more than anything else. Just accept that you benefited from a horrific system, that a more deserving team got screwed, and move on. Sometimes, good things happen to people who don’t deserve it. This is one of those times. Stop trying to prove your gift horse has superior teeth.

I said that they had a better statistical resume. What more do you want? You could certainly interpret that as they were more deserving, but that gets into the realm of opinion and semantics where things are not as cut and dry as you imply.

Say that statistical resumes are the only thing that should matter and stop there.
Accept your gift and acknowledge it as a fucking gift.

Still mad.
1997, K-State turned almost 2/3 of the stadium purple at the Fiesta Bowl, proving they’d travel.
1998, y’all know about.
1999, #6 one-loss K-State went to the Cotton Bowl while #8 Michigan went BCSing as an at-large.
2002, #4 2-loss USC played #5 Iowa in the Orange Bowl. Sent to the Holiday Bowl was 2-loss K-State, at #8. Thing is, K-State HAD BEATEN USC IN THE REGULAR SEASON.
And now this shit, and I had to listen to cocksuckers actually say it was because WE DON’T TRAVEL?
It’s gonna be a long, long time before I get over this. It’s insulting, it’s venal, it’s corrupt, and it actually helps feed the idea that K-State “deserves” to be left out in the cold if another wave of realignment hits.
But, having said that, I do wanna give the commentariat some love. If there’s one homogenous nationwide audience anywhere that actually treats K-State with any fucking respect at all, it’s this one. Y’all are great.

Dude, it blows.
Being here, I see how upset people are. It really is bullshit and anyone that knows anything about K-State knows how awesome the fans are and how well they travel (them and ISU). The powers that be are dumb and the people paid to talk about it are even dumber.

Well said and I agree with this.
If I didn’t think the system was broken, I’d be mad but until there is the conference champion playoff it is more about eyes and money than who’s best.

In all fairness, I think the Alabama might be a slightly better team than Ok St.,
but the difference is marginal and its like comparing apples to high-flying, point scoring, oranges; so the comparison is kind of meaningless.
At the end of the day, I really wanted to see Brandon Weedon and Justin Blackmon take on Honey Badger et al. THAT would be something I would pay to see.
Now I’m gunna watch the re-match, but I’m not gunna enjoy it.
