College football Week 0 thread: Son of a son of a sailor

There tends to be fewer than 10 games a year which really "decide" the way the sesson plays out - And once we get down to the playoff, it will be half that (and only then for the top seedings).

 

Is Hard Rock Stadium at the corner of First and First?

 

I decided this year that I wasn't going to complain about the Pac-12 refs. I almost made it through Week 0.

 

They could play it at the Asbestos Bowl. The whole county is basically a Superfund site.

 

Hey Arizona State fans! Get fired up for the seas- ... well, hell.

 

The Arkansas River runs through here. If by chance you call it the Arkansas River, and not the Ar-Kansas River, you’d get an awful strange look.

 

Didn't somebody tell them that the NCAA never imposes bowl bans anymore? What were they thinking?

 

That they weren’t going bowling anyway?

 

I think they could end up some random bowl -- there's six wins there if you squint hard enough.

But you do it now so if you aren't going to a bowl game it doesn't matter. They went 3-9 last year, let's say they get to 5-7 this year and then go 7-5 in 2024. By then whatever they did comes up for punishment -- and with Herm Edwards, who knows how bad it was -- and those kids don't get to participate.

 

There's a few this year, most notably in this corner, Oregon State at San Jose State in the first game at the downsized CEFCU, er, oh hell, Spartan Stadium.
