Both bands are performing from the stands at the Rose Bowl, and I have to believe it’s because it rained and they want to preserve the field. The historically band-friendly Rose Bowl wouldn’t do them like that.

Points scored in 2025 playoff games: JMU 34 Ohio State 14 Time for a serious conversation about handing out these participation-trophy bids like candy. Bad TV. Safety issue. I just feel so bad for Ohio State. They should have their own junior tournament

So once ESPN unbundled its streaming, did ESPN+ cease to exist? Because now one can only get the Skycast (and thus halftime) feed if they have access to ESPNU, it seems.

In the playoff era, how do you prepare for the postseason? Whoever wins this game will have less than two weeks' notice for a 5.5 mile march down Colorado Blvd.

Commitment to the bit that only I care about: I work at a university. I have two alma maters, neither of which is my employer. When I'm at work, I never* wear the gear of either of my alma maters, or any other school. 1/3

I agree with @bradengall.bsky.social's assertion that Notre Dame's omission from the CFP is evidence against the Worldwide Leader's meddling, but there's a tin foil hat I could don in which they're playing the long game and left ND out to usher in the 16 team + play-in era.

Three Sudler Trophy-winning programs - the Iowa State Cyclone Football ‘Varsity’ Marching Band, K-State’s Pride of Wildcat Land, and Notre Dame’s Band of the Fighting Irish - will sit home this postseason, as their football teams decline bowl invites.

I truly don’t get the appeal of podcasts having to be video now. Podcasts are at their very best when you’re doing something else, working out or playing videogames etc, and no good podcaster has ever been someone who should be shown on screen that’s just not how that works. It’s a goblin job.
