Since you mentioned that game, I will now post what I started to last night, but thought better of:

Bama beat Clemson 24-6.
Bama beat Texas A&M 27-19.

Hey, we sucked less than the champs! Hell, we found the endzone!

Ooh, I'm gonna get in on this.

Touchdowns scored against Alabama, 2017 season
Fresno State: 1
Clemson: 0

If anyone besides me and firesloth care, the Ags just hired DC Mike Elko, late of Notre Dame.

Interesting, since ESPN had on their crawl last night that you guys had hired Dave Arranda from LSU.

That's a really good hire, Jimbo is putting together a pretty nice staff in College Station...

We allegedly had a verbal agreement with Aranda, or, at a minimum, had agreed on a number. Then LSU came back hard with $2.5 guaranteed for four years, and there are rumors of some non-monetary promises that were made as well. Coach O is already on the hot seat, after all.

By crazy coincidence, LSU and ND just played each other in their bowl game.

I know... I had a 3 day week after Christmas... then took a day after New Years to drive back from the semi-finals so this was a 3 day week... and next week I work 1.5 days. It's great from a relaxation point of view, but my monthly report is going to be pretty sparse.

Bastards!

That's a great hire. Very disappointed that we couldn't keep him at ND. Our defense went from awful to quite good...even though we don't have any safeties that can play worth a darned. He's a great D coordinator.

Can I get a Roll Tide?!

*crickets*

Is the 2018/19 thread up yet?

Am I the only one who likes the feed with the random ESPN people just sitting and chatting?

Oh this could get interesting...

Edit: And ESPN ruined the Voices channel by having five different feds rotating back and forth.

Sweet Jesus this game. I am literally reading a book.

The facetiming from Miami to New York to LA has been the highlight for me so far.

It's just a consolation game. Everyone knows the real champ is UCF.

I have the LeBatard feed in one window, and the real game in another, and I am SO THANKFUL for the LeBatard feed right now, because otherwise I'd be napping. I wasn't expecting that.

They should just ditch the SportsCenter and NFL Live feeds and stick with Le Batard, LA, and NY the rest of the way on ESPNU.

Alright, having Kenny G do their halftime show while a producer painted orange juggles is literal genius.

Tua!!!!

Huh a game after all.

EDIT: Never mind, 80 yard UGA TD

I flip between the wire cam and the All-22.

Well, the 2nd half has been a significant improvement.

Was the wire cam getting ragged on for being almost 50 and not being a parent yet?

Well look at that. Tie game.

Watching on ESPN Deportes. Best line: “¡Furioso Saban!”

Ohhhhhhhh kid.

Muy furioso.

There’s your 2nd round pic for the Bucs right there.

Bucs scouts getting excited about the Georgia kicker 3-4th round grade. ;D

Edit:

Rat Boy beats me to it.

And game.
