Heather or not ❌👑 ❌🧊 ♥️🇺🇸1They know we’ll keep watching. So they don’t care.
Covered bridge fan1I knew this would happen a decade ago. I dislike it. But it’s content that espn/draft Kings wants.
Slippery Pete1G6 need to break away on their own and not be a part of this. It serves them no purpose.
spookily scarily pitt girl 👻🎃👻25Just want to note that the proposed schedule here is for the first round to be the first weekend of December (current CCG slot) on campus with the second round also on campus the next week in a lot of places this is finals, or damn near. my last grad school assignment of this semester is due 12/9
BK?10And 2028 will be 36 teams and 2029 will be 48 and It’s hard to care at this point. They’re doing March Madness but skipping the midmajor era entirely. Every 6-6 B1G team will eventually get in over every 10-2 MAC team.
Game on Paper7All of this feels gross. Negative EPA to all involved we say
All Paulo's Eve224 becomes 12 12 becomes 6 6 become 3 The final 3 face off in the 'Football Triangle' where there are three endzones. 22 players on offense. 11 on each defense. The team whose endzone you score on loses the points that you get, and can go negative. But opponents get points on a safety.
