TCU QBs were 8-21, 28 yards, 4 INTs and were sacked twice for 16 yards. And they won. Cal's QBs were 17-33, 164 yards, 5 INTs.

If not for an inept kicker the first couple weeks, they'd have made the playoffs this year. Crazy. Or if they had a real coach from week 1. Jackson almost certainly cost them a win or 2 for just being a dumbass. Yeah, I was going to say maybe if they didn’t let a guy who went 1-31 in his two years keep coaching, they might be in the playoffs. Steelers, Saints, Raiders and Bucs games were all winnable. Give them two and they’re 9-5-1 or 9-6.

He went to UC Davis. Good enough for me.

Jose Mourinho was fired today. Not too surprising. This one was coming all year. He’s held 8 jobs and only once has he coached into the fourth year. That was his first stint with Chelsea and he was fired 6 games into his fourth season.

No week 15 thread so this will have to do. Saw that Mayfield is the first Browns QB with 20 passing TDs in a season since 2007 (Derek Anderson). That led me to Play Index the Browns QBs. Mayfield's 2018 season is only the second Browns QB season with 20+ TDs since 1987. Not second QB (i.e. a QB did it multiple times) but second time total. Like, I know the Browns have been terrible over that time and have cycled through QBs but only doing it twice is impressive.

Lee Smith, Harold Baines elected to HOF
soccer10k replied to cl smooth's topic in General Baseball Talk
0 times in top 5 in BA, 0 in HRs, 1 in RBI. What exactly are these stats you shingle infested carcass? Don't forget hits where Baines had one top 5 finish. Even if you go to top-10, you get 3 in BA, 2 in RBI, 1 in HR and 1 in H. We should Tony some slack. I heard he did the interview in his car right after taking a nap while waiting for a stoplight to turn to green. -
Then you’re potentially screwing over the No. 1 seed by making them play a much tougher team than they could be.

Good for the Brewers if they get him. You guys are pretending the Cubs haven't spent money on this team. They have the #1 payroll in the National League. The truth is, Theo and the baseball ops department are the problem because they HAVE been able to spend money, they've just spent it on mostly garbage outside of Lester. Jason Heyward, Tyler Chatwood, Yu Darvish. You only get so many bullets and you can't screw up that many big money signings. And if Theo knew that signing Darvish last year would hamper their search for free agents this year, that's an ever bigger f***-up than we think. If by #1 in the NL you mean either 3rd or 4th, then sure, #1 in the NL. I mean, I understand your general point that the Cubs have and spend a lot of money, but no need to keep repeating false claims.

Anyone win or lose in fantasy because of that Seattle defensive TD? There's a fantasy league at my work and the guy who sits next to me outscored everyone by at least 100 points this year but was the 3 seed because the top-3 all went 10-3 and he lost to the other two. He's playing the weakest of the 5 other playoff teams. Was looking good until Cooper went for 36 points in the 4th quarter and OT yesterday,. So he's down 11 with Seattle's defense left. At 14-0, he's at 8 points so he basically needs a defensive TD to win or something crazy like two sacks and a pick or fumble recovery (1 point per sack/int/fumble recovery). Oh, and the other guy put up the 4th highest single week score in the league this week and was like 20 points higher than anything else he'd done this year (the guy who sits next to me has the top 3, this week included). Dude didn't even watch the game because he was so annoyed that he was probably going to lose.

Rudy Gobert got tossed in less than 3 minutes tonight. He got called for a foul on the opening tip (can’t remember the last time I’ve seen that) and then was posting up Harden, gave him a little bump and Harden flopped for Gobert’s second foul. Knocked over some water at the scorers table and yelled a couple words at the refs and got tossed.

Career 1.170 OPS against the Cubs, which is his best against any NL team. Only one higher is the Angels (1.247 OPS).
-
They have to take the highest ranked teams. Except for the conference-tied Rose and Sugar, who get a team from those leagues no matter how high they are ranked. That's why Texas is in the Sugar. Thanks for the info. I knew that the champs got auto bids if they weren’t in the playoff and the top Group of 5 got a spot also but didn’t know after that. I remember the BCS used to have a two max per conference rule. Wouldn’t be opposed to them making it 3 per conference assuming there are enough in the top 15/16 ish.
-
Are the New Years Six required to pick the next highest teams after the bowl affiliations or did they willingly give us 4 SEC teams? I’d much rather see Washington St or WVU in there instead of Florida or LSU.
-
So I’m watching Lakers-Mavs and DeAndre Jordan goes to the free throw line. The graphic says he’s shooting 77% from the line this year. I think, surely this must be a typo. This is a dude who only shot over 50% from the line twice in 10 years and topped out at 58%. Check basketball reference and yep, he’s at 76.5% on the year. Good for him but how come he didn’t learn how to shoot sooner?
-
Did Washington pick him up yet?
-
So what was the purpose of this if the Cubs were going not going to tender him a contract?
-
As far as releasing the scum bag, sure. But pretty sure they had knowledge of the incident way before today. And they still employ Tyreek Hill.
-
Can’t be. That horsefeathers Ross was there.
-
Circumstances are a bit different this year than 2014. Not saying it won't happen but I think OSU would have to look a lot better than OU to jump them.

Game over. 74-72 aTm. Highest scoring FBS game ever. More points scored tonight than either aTm-LSU men’s basketball game last year.
-
7 OTs! Only the fifth time a game has gone to 7. None have gone to 8.
-
LSU-aTm is 58-58 going to a 6th OT.

So for sure in the playoff we have Notre Dame Alabama-Georgia winner Clemson is in with a win Then it comes down to Oklahoma or Ohio State. I still don’t think Bama gets in with a loss especially if Oklahoma wins but i suppose they could beat out OSU if they lose close and OSU looks like crap and barely beats NW. Wouldn’t be opposed to seeing Texas, NW, Bama, Clemson and UCF win just to see if the committee would go UCF or a two loss team.
-
Pretty good chance IMO, but you never know with the committee. OU wouldn't have any wins as impressive as this one and their defense is really really awful. On the other hand, Purdue and Maryland. Yeah, without having gone game by game through the schedule, I’d say OU gets the nod. The problem for OSU is Oklahoma was already four spots ahead, got a good road win this week and will have a chance at a better win than OSU next week. Even if OSU blast NW like they did Wisconsin a couple years ago and OU looks terrible and wins by 3, I’m not sure it would be enough.
