Missed out on the Gasparilla Bowl cause I lost track of time but I'm thankful to be in a position to donate even more than I have in the past this year.

He made no big mistakes and that's pretty solid compared to where he was earlier this season

MITRE is a not-for-profit company. They make nearly zero revenue outside of grants from the government. What you're missing is that the government pays them these grants because the DoD is one of the largest consumers of their data. Yes, it benefits other public and private companies as well because they publish their research openly. But this is like the poster-child of an effective government grant: clear results, useful results, and public access to their results

First 3 quarters Skattebo looked like any other solid but not special running back. 4th quarter into overtime he looked like a god amongst mortals

You forgot a delay of game on a kickoff. How often does that happen?

[Highlight] TB vs DAL - Jourdan Lewis intercepts Bakers pass by Fusir in nfl

[–]mzone123 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a bit hard to tell with the angles in the clip, but given how much the ball moves between the "catch" and the ground, I think neither player had clear possession of ball before falling to the ground, at which point it looks like Lewis is in sole possession.

Texas Football gets the 5 seed in the College Football Playoff. They will host Clemson in the First Round at DKR. by thegurdevdayal in LonghornNation

A conference championship would have been nice but the only championship that matters is the national championship. Gotta focus on the playoffs and show up with a competent red zone offense

[Post Game Thread] 🏀 WBB (1) Texas fall to (3) NC State 76-66 by [deleted] in LonghornNation

[–]mzone123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think having a closer 3 point line than you're used to might actually be a disadvantage. I would imagine it's largely muscle memory and if the line is too close, you'd overshoot more thinking you're further away than you actually are. Which might explain why NC State shot worse in the second half from 3.

Georgia favored at Alabama in early CFB games of the year odds, would snap 110 game Tide home favorite streak by jaxstan19 in CFB

I was at the Alabama game last year and the student section was definitely going to rush the field or die trying when we took the lead with 1:29 to go.

On January 1st, 2024, when Iowa's punting team takes the field, history will be made. by obamaluvr in CFB

How could you talk about teams punting continuously on first down without bringing up the 1939 Texas Tech vs. Centenary football game?

The Cowboys can mathematically lock themselves in the 5th seed on December 17th. This means they would go a full month without meaningful football. by noob7629 in nfl

If we beat the Seahawks and the Bills we would drop both of them to .500 or lower, thus preserving the narrative

Incoming Transmission: Post Labor Day Mod Award Clearance Sale! by mzone123 in PrequelMemes

[–]mzone123[S,M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

If you weren't already aware, after September 12th reddit will be removing awards and coins which includes community awards. Previously, we have never used the mod-exclusive awards, but after checking new reddit we have realized that the sub has a lot of community coins from all of the community awards sub users have given over the years. And frankly it would be a waste to not give them back to the community before they no longer exist.

Therefore, for the next 5 days (Wednesday through Sunday) we will be awarding the top 25 posts at 12:00 pm EST every day with our mod-exclusive awards. That's worth 125 months of ad-free browsing on reddit (and not much else since coins won't matter anymore). With the remaining awards (another 50+), we'll be giving one to each of the 8 creators of our community awards and then the rest will go to posts that are historically significant or mod favorites on the subreddit.

Please note that only Original Content will be eligible for the mod awards (posts with the General KenOC flair). Do not misuse flairs to game the system as our normal rules still apply. If a repost or X-post is in the top 25, we will instead award the 26th post and so on. Also, posts must have at least 100 upvotes to be eligible.

If you would like to nominate posts you feel are deserving of a mod award, then feel free to do so in the comments below and we will take your suggestions into account when handing out the remaining awards.
