MichiganCardinal Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 SEC officiating is positively reinforcing terrible fan behavior. If you announce a penalty, it should stick. It was a bad call, but you can’t change it after hundreds of Texas morons throw bottles onto the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hongbit Posted October 20 Author Share Posted October 20 11 hours ago, Deleterious said: Someone has to be looking up Lincoln Riley's buyout number. I wish I had a spare $88 Million lying around. Yep. That’s the number. Riley is one of the worst in game coaches that I’ve ever seen. I thought OU fans were just bitter when he left but they were right. He’s a luckier version of Kliff Kingsbury. Great QB coach that has been in the right places at the right time. He doesn’t have the makeup of a big time coach. He’s also a very overrated playcaller.

buddha Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 SEC is whooping the big ten's ass in ratings this year. only michigan-usc and ohio state-oregon delivered big ratings for the big ten. michigan-texas did too. most of the marquee big ten games are still to come like penn state-ohio state, michigan-oregon, and michigan-ohio state, but the big ten needs to step it up. but this is just going to highlight the deadweight in these conferences. why do northwestern, purdue, illinois and other schools get the same amount as michigan and ohio state? at least 1/2 the schools in the big ten are a drag on the conference and bring nothing to the table. when the super conference arrives, things may look very different. for the immediate future, the networks are going to want to see the big boys play each other every year. none of this 2024 penn state schedule with one big game on it. the big boys will have to run the gamut.

And the thing is the draw is always about winning. Mich and USC draw because they win, if they start to lose and Indiana starts to win, then after a few years IU will pull better ratings - I don't think the average fan has that long a memory. Depth of tradition may matter to the alums, and that give you some kind of base, but alums are never more than a minor piece of the audience in a top match up.

Depth of tradition may matter to the alums, and that give you some kind of base, but alums are never more than a minor piece of the audience in a top match up. to a degree. usc hasnt won anything since pete carroll left and theyre still a draw (albeit a smaller one). notre dame is still a draw. tennessee. nebraska to a degree. i understand your point and there is some truth to it, but "being a good coach away" is true BUT that good coach gets poached quite quickly 9 times out of 10. you make it sound easy and it is not. msu was a solid team under dantonio and they were never the draw michigan is even when michigan sucks. and now no one givea two squirts about msu. it will return to relevance when they hire a good coach and then return to irrelevance the minute he leaves or michigan gets good. michigan will be watched even when brady hoke is their coach.

Terrible calls. 1st and goal and try, unsuccessfully, to run up the middle, over and over. Then incomplete on 4th down. Maybe try to run outside for an easy TD? Stupid....
