    1, more panicky Michigan fans might be at a 2 or 3

    these rumors come up a lot but they're not really reliable

    and, after all

    Oakland is still in play.

    I feel like the Rams would have to make Harbaugh the literally highest paid football coach ever (I think the top of the NFL is Belichick? Harbahg is already at the top of college) to get him there.

    Cause, like, fuck LA.

    on a scale of 1 to broken headset how nervous are michigan fans about losing Harbaugh to the NFL?

    I dont see him leaving til he at least gets Michigan to a national championship game and probably not til he wins one.

    0. Would be 1, but Clay Travis thinks it's happening, and he is literally the dumbest person in America.

    ok good to hear. didn't want harbaugh leaving that quickly. he's way too fun to not have around.

    also I don't care if we do confidence picks or normal setup. I was actually way better this season in another pick'em I do that's only confidence picks (around 70% correct rate)

    Harbaugh has said that he is not leaving for the NFL.

    He also said:


    God do I love the roller coaster ride that is being a fan of Harbaugh's Michigan

    It's Meyer, Franklin, and Dantonio.

    And probably unwise to use black slang from the 70s, but whatever.

    What I find interesting is that there's Olympic Table Tennis on TV in one of those pictures. The last match was held on Aug 17 before the CFB season even started.

    Strong probably had a pretty good idea this was his last season in Texas.

    Hey folks, so considering everyone's feedback... let's do the bowl pick 'em forum style. Since I'm deciding on this kind of late, I'll go ahead and post this, and @Nirya can add some write-ups later if he has the time. (Sorry I didn't let you know in advance, but I decided on this like... 15 minutes ago.)

    At any rate, to fully count your entries will need to be in by 2:00 PM Eastern Time on Saturday, December 17th. This is for just the first 9 bowl games. I will try to space it out evenly. There are no Game of the Week bonuses in this set. (There might be later.)

    Here is the slate:
    Straight-Up
    Toledo vs. Appalachian State
    Central Florida vs. Arkansas State
    Southern Mississippi vs. Louisiana-Lafayette
    Memphis vs. Western Kentucky

    Against the Spread
    New Mexico (-7.5) vs. Texas-San Antonio
    Houston (-4) vs. San Diego State
    Tulsa (-12.5) vs. Central Michigan
    Wyoming vs. Brigham Young (-9)
    Colorado State (-13.5) vs. Idaho

    And here is the form:
    https://goo.gl/forms/93ImLzurOAPeQ5NN2

    Have at it!

    It is possible to still feel empathy for people who have money.

    Money ain't gonna make ya happy.

    so, the most gloriously absurd CROOTIN thing ever just happened

    a five-star OT had his announcement during his school's christmas talent show... which was live streamed through Facebook.

    So thousands of obsessed football fans logged on to watch a bunch of kids sing and play guitar for a half-hour before the commitment happened. And ended up bickering in the comments.

    It was amazing, it was ludicrous, and I ain't even mad that he didn't pick my school.

    oh, and the recruit was dressed as an elf, and revealed his commitment by unwrapping a present, revealing the hat inside the box, putting it on, and then taking off his elf vest to reveal a Georgia jacket. and then Santa handed him a pug.

    football obsessed fans following high schoolers that closely is always creepy to me

    I enjoy when high school recruits are aware enough to fuck with people about it at least.

    They were gonna tie the record for most FCS titles at 6 held by Georgia Southern. Now I'm salty that they broke my alma mater's record (3 titles in a row, App State) but didn't break the record of our biggest rival.
