When your caretakers have to report to the hospital extra early, so you have to get up extra early, which means you have to start your nap extra early. #tigerlife

Today was the last night without a football game on until the night before Thanksgiving.

Congratulations everyone, we made it.

In Japan, the TRON Ares OST was released in a 5.25” floppy package, but the floppy is just a piece of paper, not a real thing, so….

There are a ton of creative answers, but I bet it’s just gonna be SoFi (or whatever it’s called by then)

a sports film that acknowledges it was originally meant to be a toothless PR-friendly "doc" and actually documents the hard pivot to losing access and encountering hostility when reality took a turn would be the first good one of these

Timothy Burke @bubbaprog.xyz · 1d

this is actually a pretty big black mark on Hulu that they had the opportunity to chronicle an extremely newsworthy spectacle and are letting UNC back out of it because it makes them look bad

Real Deadspin has been dead for 6 years and still none of those writers have watched a lick of college football. Honestly, if it's a bit, it's a great bit at this point.

Vineyard Dawg @vineyarddawg.bsky.social · 1d

Ok, well, the answer to the second statement is "because you haven't watched college football more than like 2 years, max, if you feel like that."

A headline that reads:
Is Arch Manning college football's first flop? Why his slow start feels unprecedented

I don't feel bad for him, he's getting tremendously compensated.

PodKATT @podkatt.bsky.social · 1d

I continue to be utterly baffled by the continuing waves of "just give him time" coddling that Arch is getting from the college and, weirdly, the pro football draft press. If he had ANY other last name, he'd be just another Texas bust and we'd have all moved on long ago.

I was about to mention that for multiple recent years, NASCAR built and removed a concrete and asphalt track inside the coliseum without impacting USC football, but the window for turn around is much tighter in this instance.

Alissa Walker @awalkerinla.bsky.social · 1d

A temporary track and field venue being installed by LA28 will kick the Trojans out of their football stadium for the 2028 season, concludes Rich Perelman.

“There is — barring an engineering miracle — no chance that USC will play any of its 2028 home schedule in the Coliseum”

I always wonder if they have somebody back at HQ making these edited versions on Sunday or if the live producers are doing something to tag areas that can be cut in some kind of automation.

Unfortunately for OU, Texas has fallen to the point where they would be the team that inexplicably wins Red River now. Not sure I would push Mateer to come back early

Tom Green @tomasverde.bsky.social · 1d

Oklahoma QB John Mateer is "pushing" to return this weekend against Texas, per an ESPN report.

That aligns with 247Sports/CBS Sports' reporting Sept. 26 that there was early internal belief that Mateer could make it back from hand surgery in time for the Red River Rivalry.
