2015-16 Bowl Mania (and College Football Post-Season Thread)

It's splendid and underreported that Baylor students aren't allowed to have any sex outside of marriage by school rules. You can't even play the "yeah we fucked but it was consensual" card there.

Policy:
Baylor will be guided by the biblical understanding that human sexuality is a gift from God and
that physical sexual intimacy is to be expressed in the context of marital fidelity. Thus, it is
expected that Baylor students, faculty and staff will engage in behaviors consistent with this
understanding of human sexuality.

I'm not surprised, it's a private baptist school.

Verne Lundquist will retire after the 2016 season, to be replaced by Brad Nessler.

[Zetanio]

I like Verne.

[FNH]

I like Verne.

Get



Out

[Zetanio]

I forgot my /s. Sorry babe.

[Kirin]

Just to clarify, Verne will be retiring from college football. He will still do college basketball.

[Anoat]

Baylor AD has resigned. The rats are abandoning the ship in force.

[Bregor]

I like Verne.

Verne is a national treasure

[Krandor]

I for one will be glad to see him go, he's been kind of awful of late.

Verne is a national treasure

The Verne that was good hasnt been in the booth for a long time. Gary needs to hang it up too

On one hand, I was planning on attending all 13 ( 14? :D 12? ) TCU games this year. On the other I don't want to give baylor any money that I don't have to. (In that I have no idea if there is any fraction of money spent attending TCU games, especially bowls, that ends up being split to all teams)

[Zetanio]

This thread reminded me to change my sig.

[Coren]

Finally got my order in for every Clemson game this year, starting on the plains @Aubarn. Woo! Can't wait on Not-Football Season to end, and Football Season to start!

Supposedly there was going to be a super secret board of directors meeting at Baylor tonight with the goal of figuring out a way to get Art Briles back for the 2017 season, but now that it has leaked and backlash has started coming in they might not have it.

[Belmoth]

Local media has been reporting that there is a "small minority" of boosters that want Briles back. The idea would be to suspend him for a year and then he can resume his head coaching duties. Got to keep the program relevant so they can keep filling that shiny new stadium!

[Moss]

they must be convinced that the program is all but doomed without Briles

The ACC Network is officially going to be a thing with ESPN. Will exist as digital only beginning this August (ESPN subscribers will be able to watch online for free), will launch as a television network no later than August 2019, and the ACC extends it's grant of rights to ESPN thru 2036. This also means that if Notre Dame football is to join a conference before 2036, it must join the ACC. Notre Dame is already a member of the ACC in every sport other than football.

Yay money! Don't have time to click through and read now, but does it list amounts and how it stacks up to the other networks?

[Anoat]

Showtime's "A Season With" show this year will follow Florida State. Neat. Too bad I don't have Showtime.
