    Vols vs Dawgs Game 1 Thread

    Like a Blake McAdams punt. That’s a patented Dane Burns appearance. RIP Jack.

    It’s interesting, two of my diehard Bama coworkers would have laid down their own lives defending Brandon Miller during that season a few years ago. Both completely changed their tune this year after a Bama Boosters’ meeting in Bham. The consensus was “no way Miller shoulda kept playing that...

    If you want to watch USA in the World Cup at home.

    Sucks, too. Because this was supposed to be the prime years of our Golden Generation. We have more individual talent and top flight representation in Euro leagues than ever before. Most of our projected starting 11 spent time in European academies (not colleges). Yet, we were thought of as much...

    MSU baseball stats update

    Also, will be good to see this after the 4 games this week. Will have played 40% (14/36) of the total Power 5 +USM games on our schedule. At 14 games played on Sunday, anomalies begin to work itself out.

    MSU baseball stats update

    Got this in a group chat I’m in that’s counting the Power 5 (+USM) stats. So 10 games of data. Some pretty interesting takeaways. Perhaps most encouraging is Woodson’s slugging and OPS. 1.100 OPS without a single free pass is pretty impressive. Gotta get Frei and Reese going. Reese’s numbers...

    Vandy Chairbacks (SOLD)

    Would love Friday and/or Sundays. But would take all 3, too.

    Softball Fans

    I find this subject fascinating. And because the litmus in these Sport Science experiments is 70mph vs 90mph, I got curious how realistic that control is across the different sports. ChatGPT says less than 1% of Power 5 softball pitchers throw 70mph consistently. Narrowed it down to 4-5 total...

    Arkansas Game 1 Thread

    He’s actually been abhorrent vs P5 +USM. If my math is right he’s 1-21 in those 5 games. Or hitting .047. But he’s 19-37 vs everyone else. .513. Concerning.

    State tennis comes from 0-3 down to win 4-3 vs #4 Stanford

    This is mortifying. The $5,000 we spent on this trip for the men’s tennis team would have netted us a walk-on white cornerback from Hickory Flat HS for depth on defense. Completely irresponsible by the AD.**

    Nuno Aussie Open Thread

    Update. Beats the Aussie in 4 sets. Tougher than he hoped. Lost the first set in a tie break. Won the next 2 to go up… then found himself down a break and behind 4-1 in the 4th set before winning 5 straight to close it out 6-4. Onward.

    Nuno Aussie Open Thread

    Nuno Borges moved past the #7 seed yesterday in the opening round. Nuno was up 2-1 and in the 4th set with Auger retired due to injury. That kinda opens the bracket up for a few matches, as the 7 seed was the highest seeded player in that quartile of the draw. He’ll play an Aussie ranked around...

    Anyone have an idea what this could be?

    ClintonInHelen hits it at halftime tonight?

    Holy sh*t

    I agree with nearly everything you’re saying. But the actual number staying is probably the inverse here. Maybe 10-15k stay the weekend, max. The other 25-30k commute. Which makes the $75mil economic impact figure even more absurd. Furthermore, they’ll never publicize this, but Oxford was...
