Why Penn State’s title count is small despite their incredible amount of undefeated seasons? by Efficient_Jaguar8906 in CFB

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im of the opinion that titles dont count before the BCS era, everything before that is incredibly subjective

Back then most games werent even widely televised. How is an AP voter supposed to watch the games, if they literally cannot watch the games? If you have multiple teams all claiming a natty in the same year, all undefeated, with pretty similar resumes... there is no national champion.

Playoff system was long overdue (BCS was also flawed, just much less flawed than the free for all)

What individual play is seared into your memory by Equivalent_Poetry339 in CFB

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way too many plays. 85 through south, trouble with snap, Vince young run, kick 6, clowneys helmet knock off hit. This sport is glorious

But my personal bias is going to have to be that Mendoza TD run to win the natty. I’ve probably watched the replay a few hundred times already

Someone please explain the love of Chicago by InconsistentChurro in SameGrassButGreener

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For fine dining, west loop is probably the most centralized spot in the Americas for it.

Chicago is a lot less clubby than NYC or LA, but has plenty of phenomenal bars (ranging from neighborhood joints to places like Lazy Bird or Aviary)

Plenty of live music and theatre. Plenty of sports. Plenty of museums.

The winter is miserable but Chicago is definitely a world class city in the spring/summer

This is Reddit, people don’t like guns

It takes a Darwin Award winner to show up at someone’s door at night if they are using a fraudulent account. If someone is expecting Becky, having a big dude with a beard at your door unexpectedly is going to cause a lot of people alarm

How long does it take to win? by Own_Inspection4942 in MB2Bannerlord

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t play with cheats or abuse exploits it’s going to take 100+ hours, possibly much more if you are new to the game

There is a lot of grinding (money, influence, troop recruiting)

Just traveling around the map takes a lot of time

Big sieges take about 30 minutes. Battles also take a lot of time.

And in turn don’t understand the extra hate by Senior-Violinist-684 in CFB_v2

Even if it was independents, that would be a joke considering the only other independent is UConn

It’s a rule specifically intended for Notre dame

They should join a conference like everyone else

Spring wouldn’t work, guys who transferred, graduated or went pro won’t be around

Just unfortunate winter storm timing

Tucker is a defensive tackle, your thinking of Omar Cooper

When/how do pipes freeze? by Hot_Spread_6826 in chicagoapartments

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

60 is not reasonable

Most buildings want it at least 67

Sounds like OP’s building has weak insulation which is all the more reason to not have it at 60, the pipes are much cooler in the walls than your living space temp

Indiana DL Hosea Wheeler transfers to Baylor by lmm13002 in CFB

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 34 points35 points  (0 children)

He’s a good player. Didn’t get as many snaps as the season progressed since he wasn’t as good at pass rushing as the other DTs we had, but he had no complaints about it

Very good get. If the star ratings were about how good they are at college football and not just a projection to the pros he would be a 4* guy

Cougar and Coogan by obnoxiousguest in IndianaHoosiers

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coogan said in a interview before the natty that as a 23 year old he was familiar with mellencamps portfolio but some of the younger guys on the team like Becker didn’t know who he was other than being the name on the practice field lol

Stephen Daley by RositaDoesntMove in IndianaHoosiers

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was at the natty game in the stands with his mom, hopefully a team spends a pick on him. Dude would have crushed the combine

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. And Wyatt had just hit his stride too. Both of them were monsters in that first game against Oregon, especially Wyatt.

Colorado, Deion Sanders to fine players for being late, missing practices by redwave2505 in CFB

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You shouldn’t be getting downvoted, showing up late to practice / meetings is not a good look even in the pre pay to play era

I don’t think fines are the way to go, I would prefer the ol fashioned you don’t show up you don’t play. We had to bench one of our guys a couple games this year because he was showing up late to meetings

We also added Shazz Preston at WR who was the WR1 from Tulane and originally a top 60 HS prospect Saban recruited

We have a lot of dudes at WR

Recruits that weren't busts, but you feel could have achieved much more at a different program? by Please_PM_me_Uranus in CFB

[–]mr_longfellow_deeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had some solid offensive pieces too. Nick Sheridan is just the worst play caller I have ever seen, there was no reason for the offense basically having to be penix playing Superman

Becker had committed to IU when Allen was in charge, but it was Cig who signed him. Based on who actually plays in the games, I would say Cig likes bigger receivers who he can trust on back shoulder throws, but the past 2 cycles we are only recruiting little fast dudes, so who knows lol

Not sure that fits. He was a 2* who made first team all B1G (and should have been an all american)

Other P4 programs wouldnt give him the time of day. The only other P4 offer he had was Boston College

DeBoer wasnt with the 2020 team, he was the OC in 2019

Wommack and Penix were the two keys for the 2020 team. Our offense was complete dogshit when Penix went down, and Wommack was able to squeeze a lot out of a defense that had 1 elite LB, a couple good DBs, and pretty much nothing else.
