This is one of the very rare instances where Rivals rates a player a 5-Star, when the others put him at 4-Star. To make matters more interesting...he is on the offensive line where we need the quality help! We know that besides Oregon and Tennessee--that this young man was also offered by Washington, (Ha!) USC, Penn State, Oklahoma, Michigan, Alabama, Texas A&M, Georgia, Miami and Ohio State. Whew!

I should feel disgusted with the glee, and enjoyment I am getting from this. It is a good thing I never said I was noble… Fantastic entertainment during the bye week! Their own stolen money being used against them? You can’t make this stuff up!

This is too funny; rejected by Air Force? The sports world is laughing, and the Pig-2 know it!

Whatever decision they make, I am confident that it will be...

Same uniforms as the epic battle in 1998 with Akili Smith...

Uniform Reveal!

Not Scrap-12, but still fun...

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

You KNEW you would begin to see stuff like this!

I'd bet that the last two the Scrap-12 goes after is Nevada, to make a UNLV move easier, or if they can move them without the Wolfpack, then San Jose State and they will cite the Silicon Valley audience. (Right!)

I will admit that I am getting to that point as well, and that is saying something! They are a G-5 team, and there is no amount of lipstick that will change that. We know it, and everyone knows it; let them pretend--who cares? But we should not lose money any further playing them in Corvallis, let alone Eugene. The originally scheduled game against Texas Tech would have pulled a TON more eyes to Oregon's game that week.

Ditto for Bryon Addison, a safety at UCLA. We sure could have used him playing Washington in 2022, and 2023...but while he would have played a ton, he wasn't starting. So now he gets to start for the Bruins. He sure showed us!

I am becoming a bit more entertained by it all. While they will not admit it, the problems of the Pig-2 came from bad athletic administrative decisions over decades. Now they are on they own?

Wow! The difference in ratings between the B1G and Big-12 games versus anything with the G-5 teams? Whew! Thank you HDuck, as that tells the entire story of why the Scrap-12 will never be more than just a new G-6 team. And we lose money playing them versus a P-4 opponent!

No sweat, it took seconds, and do know that you edit a post up to an hour later. Just click on the three dots in the upper right corner of your post and you’ll see an option to edit. I fix stuff like that often, and titles that others write that don’t tell the reader enough about the thread. Web behavior is readers want to know what is in a thread before they open it, and I’ve told people umpteen times how to do it, and nobody does it, so when I have time, I just fix them. It’s all about the reader, as I would like to know what’s in a thread before I open it as well. Not a big deal, as we love your comments here, and look forward to seeing a Georgia victory this weekend!

I like Friday games, in particular because you have the potential of an incredibly massive audience watching your team. I do not know what the numbers were, but I have to think there was a pretty good audience for that Illinois and Nebraska game. I am much more open to a Friday game, then I am an 8 o’clock start at home on a Saturday night!

It's been done before!

Incredible article with a ton of juicy quotes!

I suspect the Storm trooper look will be saved for at Michigan. How about this one? We don't have stripes on the new version, but you get the idea.

Check again. Where I am in Eugene, the Oregon game is on Fox, and the Washington State-Boise State game is on Fox Sports 1.

Not demeaning enough!
