Self-righteousness is incompatible with coalition building.
On November 8, 2016, Michigan was 9-0 and absolutely fucking wrecking everyone. They lost that Saturday, JT was short two weeks later, and the next four seasons sucked to various degrees. As soon as orange chucklefuck is removed from office, 12-1 and Big Ten champions.
THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT A COINCIDENCE

The luck siphoned away by the Cubs in the World Series that caused the election win has now filtered back out to the appropriate sources, clearly.
Bruce Feldman says Oklahoma high ups are on their way to Clemson to get Venables.

it pains me to say it, but we must make the adorable Uga cry
go blue
For what it’s worth the only thing that makes Uga cry is his inability to lick his bhole
Also fwiw, Michigan and Georgia are the best teams* and if Michigan wins I’d like them a lot against a Bama team that looks a lot like the OSU team they embarrassed
*when Georgia isn’t playing Bama

Metchie is out for the playoffs, so Bama will be without most of its running backs and one of its best WRs
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
Also if it happened, I’ll hate whichever media tries to play up a “Ohio revenge” story for a Cincy/Michigan game because it would 1)demean Cincy’s program and accomplishments and 2)any UC fans hate OSU and OSU fans think UC stands for University of Clemson in the playoffs

Utah vs Ohio State in the OSUs backup receivers and OLine Bowl

Notre Dame vs Mike Gundy in the ACB stans Bowl

Should they get to the final I’ll also be rooting for them
I’m terrified of the implications should Bama be able to repeat with as much talent as they turned over after last year’s championship

look, i'm pleased as punch to have won the sec. I honestly think that's a massive, massive accomplishment for this team. This was supposed to be an off year for alabama, they are super young, the qb is young, everyone is just figuring things out.
can you imagine if we go two years in a row winning the sec, the heisman, and the national championship game, and then come back next year with a better team????

I have reported this enthusiasm to Nick Saban, who has deemed it “rat poison”
He demands that you criticize the team so they don’t grow complacent

It’s crazy that OSU recruits at the same level (and Georgia) and the difference is the constant inevitability of Nick Saban
My perspective on OSU/college football has changed dramatically since 2012 though, I get more nervous about which recruits they sign more than any games
