Well yea, that was never a question lol. They literally publish the viewership numbers.

The issue is conflating “most watched” with “best product”.

Fox News is the “most watched” news channel, by a considerable margin. Is it the “best”?

If you’ve got a team and wanna watch the NFL, then watch the NFL. But don’t conflate viewership numbers with something they’re not.

 

[volbeast33]

I didn’t see that in Hooker. He was serious and appeared to care more.

He didn’t care more…. He was just better.

 

[JCVol00]

If Nico does ball out it will be a fun offseason with the 2024 hype and the arguing of whether or not Nico should have started a lot sooner

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

You know how hard it is to get arrested in TX as a rich white guy for domestic abuse?

You can read the affidavit online and then after sh*t started going down she issued a statement saying he didn’t choke her and didn’t think he meant to hurt her. Yet she called 911 that night.

WTF? Racist much?

4* Pro Style Quarterback , perfect fit to Lincoln Riley's offense....

Reason why 5* Malachi Nelson hit the Portal...

Nelson hit the portal because they brought in Will Howard from the portal.

Surely he wasn't scared of Will Howard??

The Will Howard who played at Kansas State .lol....

Miller Moss starts next season for USC, Will Howard just wasted his CoVid year or Grad Year or whatever rule which gives players a 5th or 6th year...

Spread dropped from 8.5 - 9 down to 6

Not a Lane fan but I agree with this:

In case anyone needs to hear this headed into a new year.

December 28, 2023: Refuse to allow the past to mar the present. Everyone has unpleasant memories, but they should have nothing to do with where you are today and what you have been called to do. Wipe your proverbial slate clean, and begin again, says the Lord. Allow your heart to be cleansed and prepared for the future. Luke 6:37 Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

There are 4 guys who have won Heisman Trophy and Super Bowl MVP...

3 were named recently
1.Staubach
2.Plunkett
3.Desmond Howard

Who is the 4th?

@drvenner should absolutely know the answer....

 

[csprig9]

not the same team…. Louisville had 11 players opt out of the bowl game.

Louisville was overrated all year
Their schedule was crap and having 11 guys opt out isn’t much especially when only 2 of them were good (WR and RB who shared carries and was not as good as the guy they had last night)

 

[Revived2002]

If baseball championships could be bought in the modern era, the Yankees would still be a dynasty. I’m going to be fascinated watching how those players mesh in L.A. and whether they can all stay healthy. I respect Ohtani, but he’s spent a lot of time on the DL over the years.

The Dodgers are one of my least favorite sports franchises in the known universe. I would enjoy watching this experiment completely crash and burn.

I hope Tennessee is the only SEC team to win a bowl game with maybe the exception of Bama beating Michigan bc I hat Michigan so bad but if the SEC went 1-8 with Tennessee being the one win I would be happier then hell

I dont hate Michigan. Dont care for their coach. But thats where it stops. OSU on the other hand.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Ok friendly debate. Having never seen Nico start rank him and these QB's first to last as your starter.

Casey was most ready of all those as a freshman. But, his line was also stacked. Give me Peyton as a Soph.

 

[rikberry31]

I read some time ago that it's harder to disguise coverages against the wide sets that Heupel uses. As I recall the logic was that the DB's and LB'ers have to show their hand in advance or risk being too far away to get in position when the ball is snapped. I'm far from an expert but that seemed logical. Either way, if Heupel is able to go fast with the personnel he has available, the Hawkeye defense will know they're not in Iowa anymore.

Wide splits make it difficult to hide blitzes as defenders have to cover all across the line, they can't bunch and disguise a man blitz as zone coverage.

 

[rikberry31]

Additionally, I think Heupel should had left Joe at home and let him go train for his future as an undrafted free agent

He'll get drafted.

Off base ,but give me Heath Shuler in CJH offense...

 

[knoxvol52]

He'll get drafted.

If Joe gets drafted it will be late Round 6 ..

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Aggies and Longhorns will squander the SEC recruiting scene for many years to come - no doubt about it. Florida will as well, once they get a coach with a pulse.

Buckle up. This isn’t the old SEC anymore.

FYP, you misspelled one word.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

WTF? Racist much?

The actual story that circulated was she attacked him during a fight but since she called the police they arrested him. Both arresting officers and DA saw visual evidence on him to suggest his story was . She then changed her statement when she realized she wasn’t going to win.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Yeah I hope with the loss of Milton (thank god) we see some better play calling next year…. I’ll give Joey his one year of learning. Now his OJT is over.

Dude, what happened? You have been riding the negative train this entire season. You were previously a reasonable take kinda poster…

 

[rikberry31]

Bc practice time is limited. And Joe was still practicing with the ones when Nico could use as many reps as possible.

You really have no clue what your talking about.
