Six days until proper football invades Europe. I recommend the SEC documentary on Netflix while you wait. Interesting look at Florida, Vandy, and Sub Carolina's programs. Shane Beamer comes across as a genuinely decent coach, husband, and father.

"A new era of Norfolk State football began Thursday night with Michael Vick making his debut as head coach, but the season opener didn’t go the Spartans’ way. In front of 19,469 fans at William “Dick” Price Stadium, NSU fell 27-7 to Towson."

That's a big one. Rematch of CFP finals 2019.

^ good memory, TreeTwista10. It's hard to believe that it's been 5 years since Joe Burrow whooped up on Dabo's team's ass.

8/29/2025 10:00:10 AM

Yes. It was still Trump's 1st term at that time. He went to the game.

8/29/2025 10:29:04 AM

Does Norfolk state play anyone with a dog mascot?

8/29/2025 1:29:26 PM

All of NSU's dog fighting will take place from Oct. 11 - Oct. 25.

Despite the location of the university, I think plenty of Virginian dog lovers will care during that time. /dad joke

Wake Forest 7 Kennesaw State 6 at halftime. This could be a LONG season for the Deacs.

8/29/2025 8:40:35 PM

Army just lost to someone named Tarleton State

8/29/2025 10:26:51 PM

What game are you looking forward to today?

Gomer pyle says shazam not good googly moogly

8/30/2025 12:12:57 PM

So arch manning kinda sucks

Also Ryan Day has pierced nipples

8/30/2025 3:29:29 PM

More like playing your opener at the horseshoe against a top 5 team sucks.

8/30/2025 4:10:05 PM

^^nttawwt lol

8/30/2025 5:04:47 PM

^^ players who are hyped as the heisman favorite and potential #1 draft pick don't look that bad no matter who they are playing...unless they aren't that good. Manning looked pretty pedestrian for the entire game. He was regularly missing open receivers.

8/30/2025 7:20:57 PM

LSU just got royally screwed by a touchdown catch being called incomplete. Then their kicker slipped on the fg attempt. Let's see if it proves too much to overcome.

8/30/2025 10:22:48 PM

LSU just got robbed

8/30/2025 10:23:03 PM

^^^2027 #1 draft pick?

VT with some truly cowardly play calling/clock management at the end of the first half

8/31/2025 5:10:32 PM

Who's surprised that Bama fell off so fast? Even Saban didn't want to deal with all of the changes to the way programs are run and the introduction of the portal.
Only a handful of coaches could keep them where they were.

8/31/2025 6:48:42 PM

Must be hard for Alabama now that every other school can spend a bunch of money on players. Reminds me of muh Heels in bball

8/31/2025 9:05:40 PM

The Miami vs FSU game on October 4 just got a lot more interesting.

9/1/2025 2:22:16 AM

IC in shambles already.

9/1/2025 9:22:42 PM

I'm available of they want to make a coaching change

9/1/2025 9:37:09 PM

^^looks like there was some big change with 247sports or rivals or scout or whatever the fuck

9/1/2025 9:39:51 PM

Kirk Herbstreit - "this is a big drive for the UNC defe..." *TCU scores on a 75 yd run on the first play of the 2nd half* lololol

9/1/2025 10:01:28 PM

for reference

Quote :

"Bill Belichick’s worst defeat as a head coach (by margin of loss) came on January 3, 2021, when his New England Patriots lost 38–9 to the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football. That was a 29-point loss, the largest margin of defeat in his 29-year head coaching career (Cleveland + New England)."

actually that's not correct. ChatGPT is dumb as hell

Quote :

"His previous worst loss had been 31–0 to the Bills in 2003 — but in that one, the Patriots at least scored 0 instead of 9, so the point margin was 31."

9/1/2025 10:09:26 PM

Man TCU must be good if they are beating down a powerhouse like UNC

Praying for them lol. Amen

9/1/2025 10:18:00 PM

Quote :

"One helluva stat from @JonesAngell: UNC has not converted a third down since the NC State game last Thanksgiving weekend."

9/1/2025 10:20:31 PM

Is this a powerhouse?

9/1/2025 10:22:02 PM

Hell of an effort thus far, got em right where they want em.

Lololol i like how they're just talking about max Johnson's dangly leg instead of a potential turnover. They've completely checked out of this game

This UNC defense is so bad it's hilarious

9/1/2025 11:03:48 PM

They cut away from an active play to show a golden retriever putting on the headset in the booth. Wow...

9/1/2025 11:20:20 PM

Lol you could hear the dog breathing

9/1/2025 11:21:04 PM

The LED wristbands in the stands before kickoff were very cool. Gotta wonder if those were going off in people's cars in the 3rd quarter.

9/2/2025 7:33:20 AM

Gotta hand it to the Heels. They were on top of the CFB world from pregame until about 8:25pm

9/2/2025 10:40:17 AM

what a lollercoaster

they were having a goddamn carnival at 7pm
