    Does it really matter? Other teams have been independent in just football before. Or is this just Big Ten animosity because they refuse to join? https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/sorry-big-ten-notre-dame-is-never-going-to-join-your-conference/

    Probably because they're in the ACC for all sports except football, and therefore get a prorated payout.

    Simple, more teams more money. As it is, I think they should go to 16, same as in all the other divisions. That way they can have a birth for all the conferences, again same as in all the other divisions.

    depends when and how it's done. For example, when a Georgia player knocks down a passed ball in the Florida game, they might do a "Gator Chomp" in celebration. As long as it's not in a players face it's not a penalty, which will be the same with "Horns Down". SEC players aren't children who...

    Not the fans, the players. Big XII made it a foul if a player did "horns down" for any reason. The SEC said that it will not be a penalty unless the gesture runs afoul of current taunting rules. So someone knocking a ball down and flashing "horns down" in celebration won't draw a 15-yd flag...

    I loved when Matt mentioned the Horns Down thing that drives Shorthorn fans crazy. Especially since the SEC has said that doing a Horns Down gesture will not invoke a penalty the way the Big XII catered to them with. :D https://southboundanddown.com/2023/09/19/horns-down-not-penalty-sec/

    Jim Harbaugh left Michigan for the Chargers.

    That sucks, was hoping he'd go to the Falcons. Now we'll probably get stuck with Belichek. Yeah, I don't think anyone believed that. He was just biding his time for the right NFL opening.

    Because the 4-team playoff excluded them. A 12-team one wouldn't.

    The Georgia-Ohio State game was a late game on New Years Eve. The field goal miss at the end of the game was just after midnight. Yes, the NFL had great ratings on New Years Eve. Same as the NCAA does every other year when it's not on Sunday...

    IMO, a good football game (college or pro) is great to have on New Years Eve as it gives us something to watch while waiting for midnight, especially as the musical countdown (dick clark/ryan seaquest) are not my thing.

    You sure about that? Because the typical college football audience isn't watching the dick clark countdown until close to midnight. And if they're out, they're watching it on the sports bar tv. Last years Georgia-Ohio State Peach Bowl game had great ratings...

    Historically several bowl games were played on New Years Eve, such as the Fiesta and Peach. Ratings due to the date were never an issue, ratings due to matchups were. The only reason they didn't do the bowls on New Years Eve this year was because it was a Sunday, and their ratings would have...

    I stand corrected, thought it moved at the same time as the Cowboys. Either way, it wasn't because of Jerry. The reason the Cotton Bowl Committee moved the game was to make it part of the BCS as the Cotton Bowl Stadium was not up to "BCS Standards"...

    Thursday night game will suck, but seeing how the NFL is starting the playoffs that Sat & Sun, that leaves only Thurs & Fri. Well, they could play on Sat, but no one except people from those two teams would watch (most will be watching the wild card games). They really should have put the...

    Cotton Bowl has been played at the Dallas Cowboy's stadium since before Jerry bought the Cowboys (moved from the State Fair Grounds to Texas Stadium in 1971, Jerry bought the team in 1989).
