Earlier this week there was snow and ice in OKC/Norman.
It's mostly the wind that gets you. 20MPH+ wind in central OK is very common. Aside from the wind affecting play on the field that wind chill will have 40 degrees feeling like 28.

I agree, may stop some of this child BS of jumping schools every year for more money.

The whole paying college players was dumb in the first place.

As a fan of a team that would never get in the playoffs otherwise I enjoy it.

Would be a great thing. I hope UGA wins big.
If the NCAA is going to be too gutless to put more rules in place, maybe the courts can do it for them.

I dont think you have to get rid of it. Just limit its use or go back to having to sit a year.

You guys realize that TTU is only having the season they're having because of how the transfer portal and NIL is currently constructed right?
Rich oil alum who just threw a bunch of money at the portal?
You think you'd be competing at this level if things were how they were 10-20 years ago when the blueboods took all the top recruits, who generally stayed at those blueblood schools for 2-3 years?

Yes, an advantage that every team in the nation has. I get tired of hearing this. All we did was what the "big" programs" have been doing for decades. And, I'm still a proponent for going back to how the portal used to be.

I don't really care one way or the other, although I wouldn't say it's an advantage every team has. In theory any team can do it of course but there aren't more than maybe 10-15 teams with that sort of dedication from rich alums.
At any rate, I just found it amusing that you're complaining about the current landscape (which I agree with) but that the current landscape is the primary reason for your school's historic season.
But I appreciate having a principled view of it regardless of that.

Good luck to your Red Raiders today. I am still fond of the Big Twelve conference. I have been a fan throughout the years no matter of the number designation.

One thing I find especially telling of the current college football landscape (i.e. extreme greed running rampant) is how many of these primetime games start like 15-20 minutes after the hour because they want to jam in as many fucking ads as possible.
