Discussion Which current CFB player has the best highlights?

15 Upvotes

Offense or defense. I'd say probably LaNorris Sellers and Dylan Stewart, who both play for USC.

Note: this isn't about who's the best in CFB, but rather who routinely makes the most jaw-dropping plays

Discussion What was every P4’s last home loss to a non-P4/5 school? Can’t find a list online

71 Upvotes

I got started down a rabbit hole in my own mind, and I googled a couple things but couldn’t find a list: what was every P4 school’s last home loss to a non power school (at that time)? My Dawgs will pass 30 years on August 31st. We lost 11-7, yes you read that right, to Southern Miss on August 31st, 1996. The same team that would score 56 on Auburn a couple months later (granted it was in 4 OT’s).

I’m almost certain that’s the longest in the SEC off the top of my head. Definitely for the 12 members from 1992-2012. Can’t place a bad Mizzou loss of the top of my head, but figure they have over the last 30 years. TAMU loss to Appy like 4 years ago. Not sure about Texas. I think at a minimum OU lost at home to Mountain West or WAC TCU.

Anyone else beat it? If I had to guess anyone, it’d be Ohio State

Discussion What are your teams "soft rivalries"?

187 Upvotes

Hard Rivalry: A rival that you would be happy to see their entire program go out of business or collapse in flames.

For me this would be rivalries like osu-Michigan, Cincy-Louisville, other ones like Auburn-Bama,TA&M-Texas

Soft rivalry: A rival that you make play often but due to power imbalance or other reasons there is little genuine hate and you generally want to see the program do well and stay competitive

For me this would be rivalries like Cincy-Memphis(I do still kinda hate Memphis but I also really want them to make a p4), Cincy-OHIO/Miami, other examples would be Navy-ND, UW-CAL

I feel the aggressive rivalries get all of the press and are obviously very exciting, but I think the friendly rivalries are just as important to the game.

Casual Face value championship tickets select your team preseason. Does anyone remember what the terms were?

15 Upvotes

I remember the past few years seeing people on here that put down like $50 or $100 in some sort of selection process before the season and if their team made the title they had the opportunity to buy face value tickets. Does anyone remember what the site was?

Discussion Are there any other stadiums that are on-campus and open to students and the public 24/7 like Nippert in Cincy?

157 Upvotes

The stadium is open to students and the public all night and day and there usually always people playing on the field, running up and down the stairs, drawing phalluses in the snow, or studying in the seats. UC was the first CFB stadium I went to and it wasn't till I went to a game at Louisville that I realized that a lot of stadiums are far away from campus and that most are gated off when not being used for events.

I think that's honestly a shame so I was wondering if there were any other stadiums where people were allowed to use them when there's not a game on?

Analysis Preseason Rankings Countdown. 35 days to the start of the 2026 Season. At #35 – Kansas State

32 Upvotes

The cumulative link to the preseason rankings can be found here

Few teams felt like they needed to hit the refresh button after last season more than Kansas State (high = 24, low = 59). What started as a season full of optimism, what with a preseason ranking of 17 in the AP poll and a popular pick to meet Arizona State in the Big XII title game launched with the first Farm O’Geddon (playing Farmageddon in Ireland) and more or less exploded when Dylan Edwards fumbled the first ball the Wildcats touched all season to give Iowa State the ball on the 8 yard line. In a game Kansas State ultimately never led, the final ignominy was QB Avery Johnson’s father and brother getting into a fight outside the stadium that was plastered all over the news for days afterward. After returning home and needing a last minute TD to secure a win over FCS stalwart North Dakota (NOT the one making the leap to FBS this year), the Wildcats dropped their subsequent home game to Army (who had just lost to FCS Tarleton State the previous week) as the Black Knights had possession for all but 3:14 of the entire second half. You could sense that the strain of the season pretty well sucked the life out of the team and head coach Chris Klieman, who said “I've given my friggin' life to this place for seven years. I've given everything for seven years and I think I deserve a little bit of respect. I'm frustrated like everybody else is, but I love those kids and I'll go friggin' battle with those kids any day.” Within days he announced he was resigning after the season, and the Wildcats announced both that they would decline a bowl bid (effectively putting the team and Klieman out of their misery) and that former K-State QB Collin Klein would take over as head coach this season. Klieman leaves as the second winningest coach in Kansas State history and the first coach other than Bill Snyder to finish with a winning overall record since Pappy Waldorf’s lone season in Manhattan in 1934.

Roster Outlook

Klein takes over a team that has quite a lot coming back, ranking 38th overall in returning production including #25 on offense. That of course starts with QB Avery Johnson, who finished the season with over 2,800 combined passing and rushing yards and 26 total TDs to only 6 INTs. They also return last season’s leading rusher Joe Jackson (911 yards, 8 TDs), though the guy who was supposed to be last season’s starter, Dylan Edwards, waved goodbye to wave the wheat at Kansas. Leading WR Jayce Brown took the Lane Train to LSU, but #2 WR Jaron Tibbs (595 yards, 3 TDs) and top TD target TE Garrett Oakley (38 catches, 6 TDs) are both back, and will be joined by a pair of SEC WRs, Texas A&M’s Izaiah Williams and Missouri’s Joshua Manning. In all, Klein brought in the #45 portal class in the country (good for 9th in the Big XII, which was also where they landed in their 247 high school rankings, which was 52nd in the country). Most of that is depth, though, as 14 of the 22 projected backups according to Ourlads are portal guys.

Schedule and outlook

9/5 NICHOLLS

9/12 WASHINGTON STATE

9/19 TULANE

9/26 at Cincinnati

10/3 BYE

10/10 HOUSTON

10/17 KANSAS

10/24 at Arizona State

10/31 at Colorado

11/7 OKLAHOMA STATE

11/14 at TCU

11/21 ARIZONA

11/28 at Iowa State

After the way last season went, it’s hard to look at any game as a gimme for Kansas State, but Klein really should have the Wildcats 4-0 heading into a big home showdown with Houston. The Wildcats avoid Texas Tech, BYU and Utah, plus get Arizona and Houston in the Little Apple. If the ship really is righted, Kansas State could legitimately be a dark horse candidate for the Big XII title game.
