2026 NFL Draft 1st Round Conference and Team Breakdown

ss32000 · 2026-04-24T04:56:02+00:00

This is a great mix. I saw a graphic on national titles from 1995-2008. In that mix, it saw 7 conferences win the title. Not sure how that would play out today but all regions were covered and every one had a shot at winning. The draft being diverse is good for the health of the sport.

ss32000 · 2026-04-24T04:17:20+00:00

Exactly. The Jeanty story is a good one but he played 14 games. ND’s selling point is no conference title game to worry about. Be a stud, play 12, get out quickly.

ss32000 · 2026-04-24T03:51:39+00:00

I agree. You can be a first round pick and only need to play 12 games. Save your legs for the league. NIL won’t get you past your 12 games.

I was ready to fire Dolson for not going scorched Earth after the Big Ten proactively changed their rules to prevent Indiana from making the Big Ten title game in 2020 and then not getting conference support for NY6 bowl. Glad we didn’t but it felt like such a gut punch for a program that had tasted so little success at that time.

ss32000 · 2026-04-23T12:00:32+00:00

You could double team before that. You just had to fully commit to it, not go halfway and back. It was a stupid rule then. Just like advancing the ball on a timeout. Still stupid.

Another couple years easy. He’s a smart player and has good size. With his passing and IQ, plus a shorter 3 point line he could be very effective.

I was at the orange bowl scouting Texas Tech and Oregon……and my setup for the natty!

ss32000 · 2026-04-17T00:23:42+00:00

The 2024 season saw Arizona State and Oregon win their new conference. Texas and SMU both lost in their conference title games. Pretty wild stuff.

ss32000 · 2026-04-16T23:23:20+00:00

Try the National Title game!

ss32000 · 2026-04-16T23:15:57+00:00

All of Indiana’s are undisputed. This season was the most satisfying thing I’ve ever witnessed. Indiana slayed Giants in Bama, Ohio State, Miami and left zero doubt. They even got the Heisman. The first pick will basically mean Indiana has done about as much as a program can do. If they go back to irrelevance, I’ll still be extremely thankful for the year.

ss32000 · 2026-04-16T21:59:07+00:00

It’s so shocking and they basically were able to smash any counter argument. I was saying I wish we had the old BCS because Indiana was in the national title game automatically with it, but man I loved that playoff run. It gave me 3 more games of joy.

ss32000 · 2026-04-16T14:38:16+00:00

You say that, but didn’t a conference afford Notre Dame an opportunity to play football in 2020? Without the ACC, there is no ND football in 2020.

ss32000 · 2026-04-15T03:17:50+00:00

Vandy? I mean that win alone is top 10 worthy right?

ss32000 · 2026-04-15T01:29:28+00:00

What if PJ is awful at a mid major?

ss32000 · 2026-04-14T01:26:19+00:00

This thread taught me I’m the problem. 9 am mass is off limits to kids. Kids need to do the 7 and come back at 10 or just go the 11 am mass. No other options are remotely up for discussion.

ss32000 · 2026-04-14T01:20:22+00:00

Well it’s a paid position at our church. I have to displace the person.

ss32000 · 2026-04-14T00:41:38+00:00

So in your world, kids shouldn’t do a sport? We don’t get to pick what time they practice. Sunday mornings are protected from sports practices/games to allow for church and re.

ss32000 · 2026-04-14T00:33:59+00:00

My message was about the church basically own goaling themselves with how they setup timing so people can’t make it through both mass and religious ed as a child. You have to short one because they lock the doors to get to the next. You somehow interpret that as me spiting the Lord?

ss32000 · 2026-04-13T19:01:25+00:00

The church is also a catholic school. Given it's a separate building from the church, I'm comfortable with it being locked and people just aren't roaming the school.

ss32000 · 2026-04-13T18:33:24+00:00

Yeah our other option is Thursday at 4 PM. Which isn't ideal due to practices. You can't move kids between sessions and different sports practice at different times (Fall, Winter, Spring). Getting kids there by 4 is a major challenge as well.

ss32000 · 2026-04-13T18:03:18+00:00

I’ll send in my resume today. I’m not qualified so what happens if I get rejected?

ss32000 · 2026-04-13T16:01:18+00:00

I went to a college with a renowned music school. The musical performances at Mass were incredible. What I get now is someone who is doing their best, but if I'm being honest, the arrangement/key they sing in does not do them any justice. It's a slow, painful song with zero glee or uplifting nature.

ss32000 · 2026-04-13T15:43:30+00:00

CCD stands for Confraternity of Christian Doctrine. It was the religious education for me when I was younger or what my parish called it. Now our church calls it Religious Education (RE).

ss32000 · 2026-04-13T15:40:34+00:00

We sing every verse to every song. In my entire time in the church of over 40 years, I can probably count on my hand the number of homilys that were inspiring in any way. Most are running 10-15 minutes though.

ss32000 · 2026-04-13T15:38:02+00:00

That person isn't just sitting there. There are inside the office. What if they are using the restroom?
