I can't get delivery 15 miles out of the city, but..........

I can't imagine getting food delivered or as take-out

I'd rather just cook it myself.  I like it fresh out of the oven or the skillet.

Michigan will be ranked pretty high in national polls and yet that chart suggests they finish either 7-2 or 6-3 in conference play, and they host Texas noncon.

I see Texas is a 3.5 point favorite, which is close to break even of course.  I'm sure if Michigan loses and then is 6-3 in conference play, that 8-4 record will be disappointing for fans given a top ten preseason.

Click bait.  In no legit survey could one put Kyle Field that low.  As a facility it is superior to most nfl stadiums and all of the ones above it here.

Some of that top 12 may have good l or great atmospheres but many are quite dumpy as a facility and need tons of work.

I second this. Texas A&M's stadium should arguably be #1. Could not be more impressed with Kyle Field on my first visit last year.



The Texas Longhorns deserve a ranked spot as well:

So we asked 14 of our college football writers to rank the best stadiums in the sport. No parameters, no criteria. Writers were asked to submit their top 20 stadiums in order. We then awarded points: 20 for first-place votes, 19 for second and all the way down to 1 point for a stadium voted No. 20.


So, in ranking stadia, no criteria were used.  I don't find that very useful personally, not that it really matters.

California’s economy grew at a 1.2% annual rate to start 2024, the lowest since 2022’s fourth quarter. This meek GDP expansion ranked No. 29 among the states and the District of Columbia.

Just so you know, the median state GDP growth was only 1.4% as 11 states saw businesses contract. The largest declines were in South Dakota, off at a 4.2% annual rate, and North Dakota and Kansas, off 3.9%.

The top gainer was Idaho at 5%, then Nevada at 4.4%, and Oklahoma at 4.2%. California’s big economic rivals? Rival Texas was 13th-best, up 2.5%. Florida was No. 6, up 3%.
