With LSU downing Wisconsin, and Tennessee up 28-0 on Iowa in the 4th quarter, a potential Alabama win would give the SEC a 5-0 bowl season in head-to-head matchups against the Big Ten this year. Didn't even realize they scheduled that many.

As both a Mizzou and XFL fan, I approve of the new UFL logo.
-
So instead of the Roughnecks staff/players rebranding as the Gamblers, as expected, it appears the Gamblers staff/players may have been rebranded as the Roughnecks and will be in the USFL division.

That was awesome getting to watch Mizzou beat Ohio State in my first ever trip to Texas. Now staying at a (meh) Motel 6 across the street from the stadium, which is the entire view from our window.

I wouldn't say "nothing". A college scholarship and 3+ years of development into the player that's being projected as a high draft pick sounds like a pretty big "something".

What? Are you just randomly saying things off-topic that will never happen?

Nevermind.

And my list was in response to the quoted statement by you. Which is your own personal view. Many view them through a national lense that you may not, yet you still made a blanket statement. For all you know, you may very well be the exception in regards to college fans and their understanding of school acronyms and abbreviations. But you made this statement of absolution anyway.

Lincoln is not a big enough market on its own to have a professional team. And it would make no sense to cut into Omaha's already small market, however big the interest in the sport is there. It would be like putting an NFL team in Milwaukee.

Yes. Because not everyone is a west coast shut-in who ignores the rest of the country. Missouri is the only M state that goes by MU. Since they're all "University of", the others are UM. The Big 8 schools flipped the letters (MU, KU, OU, NU, CU), so yes, it's very distinctive as to who they are. And I guarantee you none of the others are confusing, either. Ole Miss is no school other than Mississippi. You are purposely applying your own ignorance to the entire country. Anybody who is a casual fan of college sports will get these pretty quickly. You need to look past your own name. My only assumption is that you're either an outlier or an agitator intentionally trying to create a false narrative to justify your unsubstantiated claims. My money's on the latter.

Culturally, they're a match, so, never say never.

That's the equivalent of two thumbs up.

Friday nights wouldn't be bad. But no Thursday night games. The league isn't established enough to draw on a weeknight like the NFL or CFB can.

Are we sure these aren't simply some type of fashion jersey? Seems either edited as @hendocfc mentioned or simply not authentic game jerseys. Would Miami really be going away from the polo collar?
-
I doubt they'd play at NRG. Right before the merger talks were announced in September, it was said they were close or had an agreement for the Roughnecks to play at Rice. Seems more plausible. Shell Energy Stadium would be cool, but Rice would appear to have more open availability.
-
Well you have the NCAA President proposing a separate division for power schools (an idea stolen from me, but I'm not dwelling on it), and now the head coach of a pending-Big Ten school suggesting essentially the same thing, only more precise. Seems to me it's a possibility.

Don't call Yankees fans "baseball scholars" while defending that Jerry Springer-level wife swap saga.

A special one-off holiday/special occasion treatment to their regular uniforms is not the equivalent of City Connect/Full-Time Alternate uniform, so this "oh they've already done it, so they're hypocrites if they don't" crap is nothing more than sanctimonious nonsense. They are not the same thing. Each special occasion uniform is worn once a year (or one series a year) and are really just wordmarks or logos of their regular uniforms recolored with pink or blue or camo, not completely new designs that are worn throughout the season.
-
I mean, the Yankees home uniforms and Detroit's old English D are some of the most iconic uniforms and logos associated with the cities themselves. How could some Nike-video game-created uniform better represent their respective cities than what they're already wearing on a daily basis?

The only people who "bitched so hard" about the Mets' and Padres' spending are they same ones bitching about the Dodgers' spending.

I don't know how it works, but I kept reading that there's a formula to determine a player's AAV for Luxury Tax purposes when there's deferred money. Not sure what the formula is or how they come to the final number.
