New podcast is up!

Episode 46 - HELLO JOHN THIS IS MIKE I WOULD LIKE TO BE YOUR HEAD COACH

It's been months so we're rusty. We talk about what we can recall about the national championship. Mike was still feeling the euphoria from the win and didn't even show up until halfway through to flush his toilet on the recording. We talk about preseason rankings, recruitin' rankings, and answer some questions from listeners.

Send in questions to [email protected] and we'll try to be back in a couple weeks or so.

TFW you realize the offseason isn't even half over :/

I always feel shitty this time of year, especially once college basketball ends. College basketball/football are by far the only sports I'm interested in. I have the MLB thing from T-Mobile, but North Carolina doesn't have a team so it's hard to get invested. Should probably just bite the bullet and get ESPN+ to watch MLS all day.

Aren't you North carolinians usually Braves fans? Maybe a stray Oriole fan? I guess you could just follow the White Sox bc of the affiliations of the Charlotte Knights? Or Tampa Bay because of the Durham Bulls?

It's split. Braves had the TV rights for a while, then the Nationals came in and took a chunk. I did follow TB for a while because of the Bulls and the fact that they were fun to play as in the Show when they had those teams that went to the WS.

Reminds me I should go see a Bulls game at some point.

I've been strangely ok without football since the season ended. Maybe it's because we won the title and the Patriots didn't hoist another trophy, but for the first time in a while, I'm cool waiting till August for more of the old pigskin.

Alabama has never won a national championship the same year the Patriots won the Super Bowl.

The Gatas are playing 2 FCS schools in 2018 AND 2019?!

woof.

Hopefully Mullen takes more risks going forward.

... Nah. They're never going to play a road OOC game outside of Florida. And don't get at me with that neutral site shit.

Wait, Idaho just moved down. Playing Towson and UT Martin in 2019 is laughable, but the Idaho game is a makeup from 2014 when Idaho was still FBS. Somewhat understandable in that case.

You know with UGA being the favorite to win the SEC, maybe the FPI isn't so bad after all.
2018 Football Power Index
RK TEAM W-L PROJ W-L WIN OUT% CONF WIN% REM SOS RK FPI
1 Clemson, ACC 0-0 11.4 - 1.5 19.2 68.5 15 25.5
2 Alabama, SEC 0-0 10.8 - 1.8 10.1 37.1 30 23.2
3 Georgia, SEC 0-0 10.9 - 1.9 9.7 41.6 43 23.1

4 OSU, Big Ten 0-0 10.3 - 2.0 6.6 28.1 49 22.4
5 Notre Dame, FBS Indep. 0-0 10.0 - 2.0 10.0 -- 19 22.3


Looks like Alabama edged you guys by 0.1 point in the FPI

Right, overall FPI but the Conf Win %. Meaning .1 point better overall but less chance of winning conference due to SEC West being tougher.

Based off that FPI rating set, the SEC East needs to step up their scheduling game. The toughest strength of schedule from that division belongs to Vanderbilt. Without Stanford and Oregon State the Pac-12 North would be the worst.

Would help if B1G teams stopped flaking on scheduled games against us

Unsurprisingly, fuck Liberty.

From my experience there, they let football players get away with murder, and then once they need to make a statement about how anti sexual assault they are because they hired fucking Baylor's AD, they latch on to what appeared to be a bullshit accusation.

I really wish Power schools wouldn't give them the time of day, let alone schedule them and go to Lynchburg. Really, I wish all FBS schools would ignore them entirely, but Power schools especially since they give Falwell the football legitimacy he craves.

2019: gators play two power 5 OOC opponents and Ohio State play zero. Id be happy if the Gators played Miami and FSU every year along with two high schools

We were supposed to play TCU in a home and home in 2018/2019, but then TCU wanted to play a "neutral" site in Jerry world. It caused the cancellation of 2019 game, which didnt happen until later year and forced them to pick a last minute team (Miami (OH))
