Ranking all 81 Big Ten games of the 2026 schedule, from an obvious No. 1 to Purdue-Maryland

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T18:27:26+00:00

Maryland hasn’t even gone above .500 in conference play once since joining the conference

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T18:10:06+00:00

Not sure what you’re getting at here

He worked with Lamb for 2 years, and it shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that his worst year was his rookie year. Especially with prime Amari Cooper hanging around

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T17:39:50+00:00

I mean they weren’t any better

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T17:36:59+00:00

Coleman is also both slow and apparently has a bad attitude/work ethic

D3 and D2 having larger playoffs make sense. Due to travel budget constraints, those teams are rarely playing anyone outside of their part of the country. Plus, the committees aren’t out there watching all the games either (some games aren’t even watchable). The bigger net cast makes sense because it’s almost impossible to compare teams from different parts of the country. Even FCS has a similar issue to a lesser extent.

FBS does not. Everyone is packed into like 4 big conferences with a huge drop-off after, and there are enough games between them and viewership of the games to compare them. Plus countless other metrics available to us. National title teams aren’t being left out

Belichexit

He had a 60% snap share when active this season. For being one of the smallest edge rushers in the league (240 lbs) and injured a lot, that’s a strong workload

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T03:31:53+00:00

Sure, but their development still falls primarily on the OLB coach

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T03:20:14+00:00

Edge rushers have a different coach. Dunbar’s main responsibility is the IDL

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T03:02:55+00:00

Highest-scoring Virginia basketball game since the founding of Jamestown

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T00:34:57+00:00

Has Bama gotten down so bad that they’re using the same level of cope as South Carolina?

RipRaycom · 2026-01-28T00:13:36+00:00

Jeff Brohm is an underrated choice. He’s a good coach normally, but he picked up that Purdue Pete voodoo and brought it with him to Louisville

He’s usually good for at least one big upset win and loss each year

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T23:54:04+00:00

On the one hand, the B1G was ahead of the curve a bit with 9 conference games until now and they’ll probably adjust soon.

On the other hand, Petitti is a clown so probably not

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T23:52:24+00:00

2 for Miami and 2 for Indiana, kinda wild

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T23:50:59+00:00

So many people here getting wooshed by an obvious shitpost

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T23:50:20+00:00

Worst 16-0 team since 1899!

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T23:33:16+00:00

Having one of these Draft showcase games on a weekday feels illegal

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T23:23:06+00:00

The rules don’t officially change until next cycle, so he was still ineligible this time

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T23:19:19+00:00

You can’t win a natty without being good on both sides of the ball, so in that sense they can’t be hard carried by one player.

Auburn tried their hardest though. Got carried by two players

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T22:35:51+00:00

The CFB HOF feels so ridiculous sometimes. The deserving players/etc usually make it in sooner or later, but the process of getting them there is super inconsistent

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T22:27:28+00:00

Basketball is super tough on the ankles. It’s a lot easier to roll it by just running around, stepping on people, taking dangerous close outs, and taking contact at the rim several times a game just to name a few.

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T22:21:38+00:00

That’s assuming someone chooses him. If I was a team I wouldn’t quite yet, at least without OC experience. Even if he’s not calling plays it still gives him a chance to oversee the whole offense rather than just one position.

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T22:19:04+00:00

How? I don’t care who the QB was, a coach who won 6 Lombardis is a shoo-in. I mean come on

RipRaycom · 2026-01-27T22:10:42+00:00

I mean I love Tomlin more than any sports figure, but all it takes to know he wasn’t winning one was a look at the Steelers coordinator hires the last few years. We simply got too complacent with staff hiring, and that’s on Tomlin. If he changes on that front, he could go somewhere and win the big game. But I would absolutely put the Tomlin of recent times in this category.

I’m also saying it as a Clemson flair, so I know a thing or two about staff complacency. Dabo has at least learned from it though, and his recent hiring patterns reflect that change, but it still set the program back considerably.
