It looks like Tosh is expected to be hired by Cal. https://www.newsweek.com/sports/ncaa/tosh-lupoid-expected-california-oregon-college-football-11109087

The two happiest days of an athletic director’s career is when they hire Lane Kiffin and when they fire Lane Kiffin.

That’s why I say make it a part of the playoff or do away with it.

I recall him having one good year as a DC and that was 2009 at BSU.

Beavis has their sights set on Justin Wilcox.

It’s the perfect gig for Gundy. He already has the Springdale Sunshade haircut. Perfect for NW Arkansas.

"On November 1, 2023, the NCAA announced it was investigating several high-profile programs for potential violations of academic standards. details of the investigations were not released, but the NCAA stated it was taking the allegations seriously. Further investigations were launched on November 15, 2023, focusing on improper benefits received by athletes. The amounts and specific nature of these benefits were not released". I personally don't think the NCAA has a leg to stand on anymore. I think it's their way of trying to stay relevant. The rules were so foggy after the SCOTUS ruling that I don't know the NCAA's findings will stand up to the numerous appeals that they will face. However, I defer to the lawyers on this site.

This is one downside to the conference championship game. The other is losing and being eliminated from the playoff.

I have a solution to this playoff mess. Make the conference championship game part of the playoff. The top two teams in each P4 conference play during championship weekend for the conference title. Four at-large teams will also play each other that weekend. Eliminate the FBS requirement and get the four best at-large teams. There will be six teams left after championship weekend. The two top ranked teams get a bye while the other four play each other the following Saturday at 3:30 ET and 7:30 ET after the 12:00 ET Army Navy game. The Final four will then be played on NYD with the National Championship being played on the second Monday after NYD (like old times). Now, there will inevitably be teams left out because the ACC and Big 12 will automatically get two teams in due to their conference championship game. However, this happens in the NFL all the time due to the requirement for each division champion to qualify for the playoffs. The CFP can increase to 16 teams and still keep the same timeline if they choose. The top two ranked teams just wouldn't get a bye during the second week.

I would rather Matayo have zero sacks, but keep Demond Williams contained. He's probably the most athletic QB Oregon will see this year. Hopefully OBD can replicate what OSU and Michigan did against him.

They did, but it didn’t count. The Heisman Association may have given Bush his trophy back, but we all know he was about 17 years too early to be receiving NIL payments. We are now seeing the results of what came from USC being found out and then being made to play by the rules that every other team has to follow.

It can be a useful move on regular plays if you time it right. It’s only allowed on FG attempts if you start your leap from the standing position.

All of USC’s championships are mythical. They have never won a tournament or a championship game that counted. All of their championships in the 2000’s were voted on. All college football championships won before 1998 were educated guesses at best. Under the old system Oregon would have at least two national championships (2010 and 2024).
