MEGA 2026 CFB SZN Thread, Nationwide; Non-Miami Specific

I wonder if this has something to do with ACC refs. Crazy to see so many ACC teams on this list yet we can never get a goddam holding call. I kinda feel like we benefitted from having more punitive refs in the regular season than come playoffs we can get away with one or two or three things (except the trash targeting call ofc)

It’s not going to stop, however i wish players get compensated didn’t have to be referred to as “buying,” players.


“No [laughs], I mean, we wish we were playing better,” Portnoy told FOS’ Ryan Glasspiegel. “College sports is basically professional sports now. You sign people to contracts and they don’t always work out the way you want. Certainly, this season hasn’t started the way Michigan would like.

“But, he was the No. 1 recruit in the country. You certainly can’t blame it all on him. He’s not playing great, but nobody’s playing great. But I don’t look at it that way with buyer’s remorse.”

“How do you evaluate the players? Who are you going to pay? What positions are most important? Because if you pay the wrong guys, and you’ve heard me say this before, you’re **** out of luck,” Saban told Von when asked about how recruiting has changed in the age of NIL and rev-share payments. “So when you can’t evaluate the players, and don’t pay the right guys, you’re going to pay the consequences for that in the future because you’re going to spend all this money and not have a very good team. And you’re not going to get the outcome everybody expects.

“Then the cause and effect of paying players is we’re raising money from alumni who now think they should have a say in what happens, and that’s why 33 coaches got fired last year.”
