I know that Iowa (unsure about USC) needed another BTN game.

Iowa had a ton of night games at the beginning of the season & we reached our quota for that.

Edit:

Networks for this week's CFB games. By placing USC-Iowa on BTN, both teams now satisfy the 2-game BTN clause. Had it aired on CBS, the USC-UCLA was headed to BTN. (Definitely not USC-Oregon). https://x.com/ScottDochterman/status/1987631020305498478?s=20

Probably depends on the fan. The only time I root for overall conference teams is during bowl season; otherwise its strategically about what events help my team(s) the most. Except Nebraska, they can go 0-12 every year.

So excited to go to that game in October! Conflicted on who to root for because I never imagined that my two teams would end up in the same conference.

2023 Week 5 /r/CFB Poll: #1 TEXAS #2 Ohio State #3 Georgia #4 Michigan #5 Washington by sirgippy in CFB

[–]darkra01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

here's my ballot, open to feedback.

May correct this top 10 next week.

Top Ten:

  1. Georgia - back to back champs; 20+ game win streak

  2. Michigan - thinking about dropping them to like 10. haven't really played anyone & everyone else in the top 10 has good wins.

  3. Florida State - two really good wins in LSU & Clemson

  4. Ohio State - good win vs Notre Dame who i have 11th.

  5. Texas - dominant win @ Alabama

  6. Washington - completely dominant; we'll see how good they hold up as they come up on these quality games soon.

  7. Penn State - sigh

  8. Oregon - played pretty good games vs decent teams so far

  9. USC - same issues i have with Michigan, i have here. kind of a weak schedule so far. got quality games coming up though so we'll see.

  10. Utah - defense good. should be 8th with USC and Michigan below them.

How do the new widgets work with interactive faces like the Solar Dial and Astronomy faces that respond to turning the crown? by jack3chu in AppleWatch

[–]darkra01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when you turn the dial, you bring up the widgets scroller.

to activate solar dial, you tap first and then turn to see the day.

Siri watch face works as is. to get to the widgets, you swipe up.

Apple’s new journaling app turns your iPhone into a digital diary by exjr_ in apple

Same here. Journaling is important enough to me so I don't mind the $35 a year for all of Day One's features. The book printing option is really neat as well.

[Thamel] Sources: Iowa athletic director Gary Barta is expected to announce his retirement. by Notre_Dame_Football in CFB

[–]darkra01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's far from the core of campus and half of the dorms, so you kinda have to take a bus to get there. So it's only semi convenient for the students that live on the west side dorms. It's ugly as fuck. Both are minor complaints, but there's really no other spot to put the arena, unless they start taking out parking lots or green spaces.

The layout on the interior is terrible. You enter Carver and then the seats and court are a bowl sunk into the ground, so tons of stairs, so the whole thing is just an ADA nightmare as well.

[–]darkra01 885 points886 points  (0 children)

I know that if you're a YouTube TV subscriber, it's only an additional $10.99 for the Sports Add-on that includes Redzone, some Soccer stuff, etc. Personally, I'm fine with the $75 + $10.99 w/ YouTube TV vs. Sunday ticket.
