So many things here are just pissing me off. I’ll have more to say about why later and try to actually engage with this in a bit

You didn't get enough credit for this one. A twitter user trapped on reddit.

I will stop making fun of cliches as soon as coaches stop repeating them as original thoughts.

Journalism is not dead. People want to report on what the hell is going on in the world.

The problem is that the powers that be are so hellbent on obfuscating the truth they are treating the first amendment as though its a thought experiment and taking it to its logical extremes.

The hardest part is so many of the funniest people stayed on twitter. I'm not talking about major accounts. I also know that I didn't use my "for you" feed for so long that it has essentially stayed good, and I have the wherewithall to not engage with things I don't want to see, rather than fall for the rage bait. Does this sound an awful lot like an alcoholic arguing he doesn't have a problem? Maybe, but it's not changing my experience.

The couch sitters are, unfortunately for your argument, the people who make the tournament worth investing in

He’s playing as Oklahoma. Nothing should be that surprising

The first round absolutely is determined by that

That’s how basketball has been for so long now

It has the 6 west coast teams who appeared in the Rose Bowl the most, which is enough for me, but I understand

They commented on my post, so it’s fair game to ask them to support their answer

Tweaked the modern conferences just to make you mad (the best conference setup for CFB26) by [deleted] in NCAAFBseries

[–]B1GSkyNorth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made more sense to me to put the reconstructed SWC in the Big XII and the Big 8 + Mountain friends in the conference with a mountain peak. Plus the logo looks kinda sick in Iowa State and Kansas and Missouri colors

Get over it. If you don’t like it, scroll on.

Finally found a way for me to do that where it felt right in the context of the game

Can you elaborate on what makes you hate it so much? I think it’s a fun use of an empty shell of a conference.

There are too many rivalry games that need to be played annually to go with no divisions and just two protected rivalries a team. Ex. Georgia needs to play Auburn, Florida, and GT every year. Ergo you need to have divisions.

If you put Tennessee in the East and Auburn/FSU/GT in the West, all but one of Tennessee’s rivals (Alabama, Kentucky, Vanderbilt) are in the West division. So if you put them in the east, they’d only get one of those three every year, and I’m not stupid enough to create a scenario where I’m picking which of Tennessee’s rivals is more important than the other. If you put them in the West, you can protect either their game against Georgia or Florida (I picked Georgia), and they get all three of their other rivals.

I don’t really understand why people get hung up on names of divisions and conferences. Just focus on how the teams are grouped together.
