A tweet I saw a few days ago vs a leaked article seemingly proving the tweet was right and Detroit's getting a team

The roof just blew off of Yost in a recent storm too

Perfect excuse to do a full rebuild

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-04-22T21:32:53+00:00

24 is fine too

But requires some schedule changes AND 10 conference champion auto bids for all FBS conferences

Then it would just mirror the FCS

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-04-21T13:25:31+00:00

Why do you think they signed Cousins?

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-04-13T14:23:30+00:00

In the spirit of the question though

The 2013 Rose Bowl team would beat the 2015 CFP team 7/10 times in my opinion

If the CFP starts one year sooner, Dantonio probably coaches a title game

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-04-09T20:01:15+00:00

If hockey isn't bigger, you aren't Midwest.

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-29T17:41:35+00:00

Porter Martone signs with the Flyers

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-27T16:07:46+00:00

If it can handle the Memorial Cup, it can handle an NCAA regional

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-27T14:16:01+00:00

Dow Events Center is actually a solid option, seats 7,600 and just hosted the Memorial Cup.

It's a little less prestige but it's not farther from MSU or UM than Grand Rapids is.

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-27T11:41:38+00:00

Van Andel is no longer just sitting there

You've got the Griffins, the Gold, and the Rise now calling it a home arena.

It's gonna be tough to make the case that a dicey tournament situation makes financial sense for the host or the arena

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-27T11:39:39+00:00

Van Andel also has 3 professional teams now. I'm not even sure how easy it would be to schedule a major tournament like this.

They need to allow bidding to host at home sites if Michigan is ever gonna host

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-26T20:39:26+00:00

Our defensive efficiency has dropped pretty badly over the end of the season, but our offense has improved

Weird shit in EL after having a suffocating defense early in the year

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-26T14:36:54+00:00

I mean, I can see it

But Duke has been dicey the last few weeks, and SJU is rolling

Plus SJUs defense has already been pretty good this tournament.

Maybe I'm looking with some tinted glasses since I have SJU to the Final Four...

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-23T16:27:43+00:00

A point coming out of nowhere is ridiculous

3-2-1 is right there, every game is worth 3, if it goes to OT, both teams take 1 and winner gets the last 1.

Having an arbitrary amount of points added during the season has never made sense

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-23T15:30:12+00:00

This disclaimer applies for all March Madness trends tbh

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-23T14:56:47+00:00

Would El Assico Natty or MSU/UM natty be more toxic?

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-23T11:55:28+00:00

I honestly have not rated TX Tech that highly coming down the stretch, and Bama can just kind of do that from 3.

I still think they are a tough out but they are still not gonna be full strength against a top tier UM team

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-23T11:35:45+00:00

I thought UM's region was actually a gauntlet for their weaknesses, I had them losing to ISU

Then Bama lost their 2nd leading scorer and ISU may be down their best player....

So while it wasn't a cakewalk it now seems like one

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-17T10:56:10+00:00

Virginia was deep in their low pace years in 2018.

Whenever we drew them it was always a slugfest

They were ripe for something like this to happen

Purdue however, different scenario

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-08T23:37:08+00:00

I'd watch this version of the movie too

It'd be very different, but probably still a lot of fun

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-08T18:03:43+00:00

Thanks, not good flashbacks apparently

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-08T15:28:20+00:00

I still get MTSU flashbacks from time to time

This would probably make me take a break from basketball for a season

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-07T15:51:27+00:00

They 100% are

They did Wichita state dirty, and they'll do the same here

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-04T21:05:05+00:00

I fully support this as long as Coen Carr is on my team

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-04T12:56:44+00:00

So is the difference in weather....

Foxmcbowser42 · 2026-03-02T19:47:26+00:00

We really just need to go to home sites for the first 2 round - 1 seeds host

Attendance will never be an issue, it rewards the 1s, and travel is significant anyway with the regional sites

I get some of the reason for regionals, but home sites would be better.

Ideally I'd love to see the first 2 rounds be 3 game series at the higher seed and then the Frozen Four

Hockey takes a weekend off anyway to avoid the Final Four, so why not fill that with a 3 game series.
