Much respect to this kid playing QB for Cincy.   Not a big kid- but tough as nails.  

Half the damn team is either hurt or opted out.

Tulane and JMU get beat soundly "Oh, the G5 shouldn't even be in this thing"

Texas Tech gets beaten soundly "The Big 12 is terrible"

Bama gets beaten soundly **crickets**
I don't think you know what crickets means.

The entire college football world is celebrating Bama's blowout.

Nobody is saying that it means the SEC sucks.

Who isn't happy about it?  Aside from the Bama fanbase, who?

You are the poster boi for howling about the G5's inclusion, while being dismissive of the SEC's abysmal performance in the 12 team era.

We all live in our own little curated Internet bubble where the algorithm feeds us what we engage with the most.

Meaning none of us even have a clue where the boundaries of our carefully manicured garden are...

Is this a serious post?

G5 teams don't warrant inclusion due to the entirety of outcomes from the last 50 years.  

When have I been dismissive of the same size of how many games?!?  The Big Ten won 2 straight NCs?  Cool.  Win 5 more in a row.  

Some of you are a little too eager to trade roles, lol.  Especially when literally all other indicators of conference quality is still firmly pointing to the SEC.  ND beat UGA with it's backup QB?  Cool.  
Whoever wins the NC now earns it.  But it also makes it so that no one team is likely to win it.  

Honestly man, I don't give a shit what the best conference is.  The evidence is the evidence, and the evidence changes over time.  If you want to make declarative statements based on small sample sizes, then great, you're among the masses.

WF vs Miss St

A bowl between 2 of the worst P4 programs of all time, one of which has a losing record.  That's gotta be a hot ticket!
Oh, and the winner gets mayonnaise poured on them.

We live in a strange, strange world.

Gaslamp is a lot of fun. Is it being kept pretty clean by the city?
