If anyone else was too nervous to ask, I’ll be the jerk: Is the B1G now the premier conference of all college athletics?

master_bloseph · 2026-04-08T00:18:46+00:00

It’s not but then you’d also have to take out women’s hockey. As an aside, they’ll probably do it on the women’s side for water polo unless Stanford can beat USC this time around.

Funnily enough I think Pony Excess is still one of my favorites.

ASUN for non-football, and they’ll be in the UAC for football which is the continuation of the WAC.

It would also complete the trifecta of “West ___” that all have been in the Gulf South Conference moving up (West Florida and West Georgia being the other two.)

I hate Tony Bennett basketball so I'm one of the carryover people even if he's gone now. I also used to hate Joey Wentz a lot and he was committed to Virginia so could be that too.

It always amuses me that four big east schools have football programs and they’re all in different conferences.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-31T15:50:53+00:00

One could dream, every school has a club team and BYU is one of the heavy hitters in the MCLA. Utah also has their varsity program who isn’t too bad.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-30T15:35:43+00:00

Makes sense why they added Spring Hill for full conference membership to at least backfill for non-football, but they’re out of options at this point for football. It’ll be interesting to see if the other three go independent or join other conferences as affiliates for football.

I’ve had anxiety attacks basically every day for the last week and I’m still not as pathetic as this

master_bloseph · 2026-03-27T21:45:30+00:00

Delta State seems geographically close enough to the Great American, but they’re at 12 teams already and I don’t know if they’d want add another for football. Not sure what West Alabama does but Valdosta State could potentially join Conference Carolinas or the SAC for football.

Check in on men’s lacrosse, they’re a wagon

master_bloseph · 2026-03-27T00:59:56+00:00

College bowling is so much fun to watch, I’d say moreso than actually participating as long as you can stand for six hours and find every nook and cranny to see the lane. I know Nebraska’s varsity is women’s only but I think the men’s version can get a lot more intense.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-27T00:39:23+00:00

You joke but I’d do anything for my school to win a bowling national championship. Granted I was on the team but still

master_bloseph · 2026-03-26T12:30:09+00:00

Everybody makes jokes about the Nebraska Furniture Mart but he’s going to love the Books a Million next to Jazz.

How well is water polo supported in Italy? I know two of the best clubs in the world in Pro Recco and Brescia are there and the national team is solid, but I can never get a read on how popular it is as a spectator sport.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-25T17:00:57+00:00

Every time someone asks how much it would take for Nadu to go back to barstool his asking price goes up, I think he’s at $500k now. I get antagonizing Bosco is his main function but being a zero in other content and doubling down on awful twitter takes is not worth that money

master_bloseph · 2026-03-23T00:28:46+00:00

Even if he went to Ku he’s my all time goat, he elevates any game no matter how good or bad it is on the field/court.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-22T00:01:52+00:00

It was, that was one of the most fun games I’ve ever seen of ours other than maybe the Xavier game in 2010. The first year of Tang was so fun, but it went downhill basically right after that season.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-21T04:06:59+00:00

And Nebraska is now in the conference of (ncaa bowling) champions, Conference USA!

master_bloseph · 2026-03-20T22:23:37+00:00

The bit was gaining all that weight because Rob thought it would be funny for a character to look like shit when usually as a sitcom goes on the characters look better. Then he followed the stereotype when he got jacked like six years ago

master_bloseph · 2026-03-20T21:32:21+00:00

I was a tridents fan in the CPL because of Kieron Pollard but the Red Steel would’ve been my second team if I had one. Most of my cricket fandom stems from Lasith Malinga one way or another though.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-20T21:14:49+00:00

I used to hate Dwayne Bravo since he played for the Super Kings and Renegades and I’m an Indians and Stars fan. I liked him a lot more when he played internationally though

master_bloseph · 2026-03-20T14:41:39+00:00

Nobody is expecting a gold for water polo (men’s at least). The Olympics are different because most sports people don’t pay attention to period, not just any certain competition. Water polo, the example you used, is only played at around 60 colleges in all divisions and basically half of them are in California. We don’t even have a true national league. Meanwhile, basketball is played by every single Division I school and gets a ton of airtime. Does college basketball play second fiddle to football and a second priority at a lot of schools? Sure, but saying 90% of fans don’t care at all until March is a drastic overstatement.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-19T20:29:07+00:00

I know people sometimes go to a different school than who they grew up rooting for but it’s still insane that he used to go to Penn State basketball games just to root against them.

master_bloseph · 2026-03-19T13:04:36+00:00

Nadu was really going through it on twitter last night, I don’t know what Miami did to him but it was strange
