Did anybody tell Ole Miss that the ball drop already happened at midnight, they don’t need to keep doing it

Aside from getting engaged (big highlight), this was a pretty shitty year all things considered. Here’s to a better 2026. Ideally involving the Giants signing good players and winning lots of baseball games, *it* finally happening, and all of my friends and family being in good health.

big struggles for Ohio State on offense tonight. If only they had the offensive coordinator who led them to last years national championship, unfortunately he now has the same job for the Northwestern Wildcats football team

I’ll never understand conference loyalty. These are your sworn enemies whom you are doomed to eternal combat with. And you’re going to cheer them on just because they happen to be playing someone not in your fight club?

The Big Ten having a really good record in bow season would have been mildly entertaining, but having the USC, Michigan, Nebraska, and Ohio State fan bases all having a bad time is even better

either:
Pat Fitzgerald wants to run back his awful end-of-tenure offense from Northwestern (very very bad sign for MSU)
Pat Fitzgerald hired one of the worst assistant coaches in college football to reward him for his vocal loyalty after Fitz was fired at Northwestern (worse!)

Very funny that it took less than a month for Fitz to undermine anyone who was giving him the benefit of the doubt that he could maybe change and adapt

They’re saying Fitz has spent the few years poring over the constantly changing landscape of college football so that when he could be prepared to compete when he eventually returned. The hire of Mike “The Brain” Bajakian clearly shows his deep knowledge of who the competitors of the sport are.
