But I do think playing in tough games in football can hurt your team. Those brutal wars wear you out and your star player can get injured like UGA. I firmly believe Ohio state won because they didn’t have to play in the B1G title game.
Yes I agree. I don't think this applies to football like it does to baseball and basketball. You need a few tough games in football so you can figure out your strengths and weaknesses against good teams but not repetitive games because of the physical wear and tear.

Duke looked utterly unprepared to deal with real game pressure as thing started crumbling around them - similar to Kentucky, Kansas and Clemson games. If they play in the SEC they probably have 7-8 more games like that and, while likely losing a few, get much more comfortable and confident in those situations. Instead they are learning on the fly in a national semifinal and failing.

Alabama hasn’t advanced past the Elite 8 more than once
LSU has been a bottom 10% major college basketball program for the last decade plus.

Aren't you like 1-9 in baseball and coming off of a trip to the Gasparilla Bowl?

I just think it's weird that the contingent of Bama fans who don't care about Bama basketball are the ones showing their asses
Well, maybe not weird, but surprised they'd put in the effort, maybe
They got mad at Chex and Scoper and whoever else acting like dumbasses last week so now they're throwing feces around in response. Monkeys in a cage, all of them.

Another thing about the 1980s is that the Soviet Union was bad paw
The tit for tat of idiocy on this board is absurd

Trolling each other over making Elite 8s and Final 4s :lol:
10 years ago hosting NIT games was an accomplishment for a lot of us.

That’s a winning trend. The talent is starting to stack up.
This group was on campus last year and went 5-7?
Yikes.

It's not that important. It's just a game.

Why does Georgia always play midweek games at 3?

Arguably Nate did too recently with the shooting stuff and his tone deaf handling. He just strikes me as emotionally immature which comes with risk. CBB tends to create these dudes, and I think age or burnout is often the only thing that really weeds out the recklessness (Bruce will go unhinged but I think he knows the limits and usually only crosses them intentionally).
I think lack of experience in big programs has a lot to do with that for guys early on. It's a different world with different big issues and microscopes. Some figure it out and some don't. Bruce had some of that at Tennessee, even though he'd been in big programs years earlier. Chip on the shoulder also ties in to that.

You chose Pope over Calipari in your list above, which makes no sense.
Why not? Pope has already proven he consistently makes tournaments, made a sweet 16 this year with a brand new roster and has another excellent roster (including a couple of elite high school kids) coming in next year.
Pope and Cal could be switched, but Pope is younger.

Cal took over a roster with one player on it an took them to the Sweet Sixteen in 11 months.
Pope took over a roster with 0 players and did the same thing

It took Rick Barnes 4 years and Pearl 5 years to the same at their current schools.
Both pre-transfer portal, a massive difference. And Pearl did it at Auburn. At Tennessee in year 1 he won the league.

Calipari has won 835 college games and a national championship. Has finished runner-up twice at two different schools.
He hasn't been past the Sweet 16 in the last 6 seasons.

Oats or Golden, probably Golden. Oats has a longer tenure, but I also think Oats is the better candidate to have some sort of crash and burn unraveling.
I dunno Golden came pretty close this year
