Some Saturday perspective from the World of CFB
Oct 8, 2017, 1:39 PM

I know a lot of people left the game yesterday kind of shrugging, but you could've been:
-An Oklahoma fan and watched Johnny Manziel 2.0 and Co lose to a 2-2 Iowa State team at home to prove yet again that your top 4 preseason ranking was unjustified.
-A Louisville fan and watched (on Thursday) your Heisman-candidate's chances crash and burn and realize your window to relevancy in CFB slammed shut last year with a 4-loss season. Meanwhile, you can't look forward to b-ball season because your sleaze-bag coach and AD just got canned and the Feds are setting up shop on campus.
-A Michigan fan and watched your top-10 team, coached by the greatest coach in the history of college football to never win his own division, lose to your second-biggest rival as an unranked team at home for the 8th time in 10 games.
-A UNC fan and watched your team two years removed from playing in the ACC Championship game get destroyed by Notre Dame to go 1-5. Meanwhile, you can't look forward to b-ball season because the NCAA is going to hand down their sanctions any day now and might be coming for Roy and Dean's House of Cards.
-A Tennessee fan and had what's usually a merciful bye week but instead was just extra time to stew over the worst loss in the HISTORY of your STADIUM.
-An Ole Mi$$ fan and watched your team get destroyed for the second week in a row and realize that even when you cheated the best you could do was a trip to the Cotton Bowl.
-An FSU fan and watched your team lose at home to its biggest rival for the first time in 8 YEARS to start the season 1-3 in a year you were supposed to make it to the playoff.
-Or a Gamecock and even though you beat a bad-but-still-somehow-overrated Arkansas team, know deep down you still suck 'cause you're the Gamecocks and a bowl game is your ceiling for the next 5-8 years.
Meanwhile the Tigers won by 2 TDs, are undefeated, bowl eligible, and ranked in the top 2. I suffered through too many Tommy Bowden years to not appreciate where we are right now. It's a good time to be a Tiger!
GO TIGERS!!

Right on brother! I can't believe some of the complaints I read on here. I appreciate our coaches and players. I do not take what we are experiencing for granted.

notified of sanctions by the NCAA....unc has as of yet declined to make them public most likely until their team of lawyers gets a chance to examine them.
Not to worry, though....news like this won't stay a secret for long....especially in chapelhole.
