Feels like a weird change. Are they planning to call it more this year?

@Nps24777 Trinidad is literally elite yes. Cut this silly ass narrative you’ve invented.

@CF_Budge Then Trinidad must be really good as well right? Yet you continuously hate on Ole Miss

He was good enough to be the day one starter for Lane Kiffin last year. Could be pretty nasty for the Tigers.

Brad Nessler is just the best to ever do it

Here are 10 College Football Teams I have been Too High on the last 2 seasons. Which of these teams has been the most disappointing recently?

My official bracket. No chalk here. Could be the first perfect bracket.

@ZackRhodes04 Strongly considered its inclusion. Always seems to be a great game, just not sure how good App State will be this year.

@CF_Budge No JMU @ App St?

College Football sprinkling some Thursday and Friday night games during the season has been a very welcome recent change. Here are 10 such games you should tune into this year:

@Moore_CFB Enter Sandman at night basically as a standalone game? I'm in.

@CF_Budge Pat Narduzzi vs. James Franklin 🍿

@YankeeGiantGuy Not to the same quality/ quantity as they have recently.

@CF_Budge Thursday/Friday games have been around forever.

Note: Thursday/Friday games during rivalry week weren't considered for this list. That's a tradition that already existed and doesn't fit into the box of this genre of games.

@CF_Budge @Siats4197Sime The best version of cfb has zero independents btw

It's time to unveil my radical, insane and irresponsible plan to save College Football. My Dream Conference Realignment. College Football will be organized into 9 Power Conferences (and 3 ind.), each of which will have 8 permanent members. Each conference will have 2 flex spots, which any given season will be filled by 2 teams promoted from the "feeder leagues" based on a rolling 2 or 3 year criteria.

@RURahRah5 I would just as easily argue to take the under. Lots of one score wins and a much easier non-con last year. Took advantage of a down year in the ACC which is on an uptick this year.

@CF_Budge Pound the over on Wake Forest. They're trending up, have a workable schedule, and return 8 starters from a sneaky good defense last year.

Which 2026 ACC win total stands out to you? BOSTON COLLEGE 3.5 CAL 6.5 CLEMSON 7.5 DUKE 5.5 FLORIDA STATE 6.5 GEORGIA TECH 6.5 LOUISVILLE 7.5 MIAMI 10.5 UNC 4.5 NC STATE 6.5 PITT 7.5 SMU 8.5 STANFORD 3.5 SYRACUSE 4.5 VIRGINIA 7.5 VIRGINIA TECH 6.5 WAKE FOREST 5.5

@askewshades Can't rely on them to win anything in conference.

@CF_Budge The under on Stanford is the most obvious bet

@ElementalWolf21 Just for you: MIAMI 10.5 SMU 8.5 LOUISVILLE 7.5 PITT 7.5 VIRGINIA 7.5 CLEMSON 7.5 CAL 6.5 FLORIDA STATE 6.5 NC STATE 6.5 GEORGIA TECH 6.5 VIRGINIA TECH 6.5 WAKE FOREST 5.5 DUKE 5.5 UNC 4.5 SYRACUSE 4.5 BOSTON COLLEGE 3.5 STANFORD 3.5

@CF_Budge Are you people incapable of putting this stuff in order?

@jamesglessner92 It is tempting for sure. Many are ready for Miami to ascend but they've never had a wire to wire ACC season where they've taken care of business.

@CF_Budge Miami 10.5 🤔 under imo, even with a really soft sched.

For me it has to be Duke at 5.5, it's too low. I know they lost a lot but Diaz has never finished with less than 6 and is always closer to 8 or 9. Duke has also been underrated as a program recently. You could argue they're the most stable middle tier ACC program.
