The SEC also has a championship game so the team going to the playoffs plays 8+1+1 P5 teams.

North Carolina State at Clemson -17.5 - Tigers are rollin'
Alabama -12.5 at Tennessee - A healthy Vols I would maybe think about considering, but they're not so I won't
North Carolina at Miami -7.5 - Points are tempting, but the Canes will get back on track
Ole Miss -7.5 at Arkansas - 'Backs have a lot of weaknesses, Rebs are too good to not exploit
Arizona State at Colorado -13.5 - Buffs are the better team, but that's a lot of points
Ohio State -9.5 at Wisconsin - Buckeyes have too much talent, Wisconsin's good but not on that level yet

Beer of the week: A two-fer! Featuring Master Master Shredder Shredder Double-Dry-Hopped IPA and Step-Dad Chaperone DIPA from the hop-bomb-factory that is The Veil.

So, what you're saying is that "Foe"rensics are the result of ciabatti-induced Wegman's rage?

We better be the home team next time or I'll be pissed

And since LSU has a myopic focus on improving offense, these days, he will be offered big bucks to coach there.

I think I signed up last week. I've been drunk on hype ever since so I can't confirm.

Edit for clarification: Not complaining about the shipping time. 2nd Edit: Because it's in my mailbox right meow

Had this a few weeks ago cause it was on sale, knew nothing of the series whatsoever, but holy hell was this beer good. The bottles I had weren't particularly fresh (2-3 months old), but I don't know that I've ever had a beer straight off the shelf retain that much dank hoppiness.

The past doesn't matter when you play an undefeated team in the championship game that beat Louisville, who will most likely be a 1-loss team also in the top 10. Even if Clemson loses at FSU I still think the winner of the ACCCG would go to the playoffs. The ACC is strong this year so the champion will go if they only have one loss.

Just joined after lurking for 4 years. After reading Joe said TKP may shut down if we can't get the TKP Clubs numbers up I first seriously considered joining, but I have to admit one of the reasons why I hesitated for a couple of months was every time I look at the progress bar on the website, it shows less than 25% of the goal and it made me feel my one vote is so insignificant. What convinced me was resonating with another member's comments that TKP is pretty much the #1 or top5 sites I visit so the investment is well justified.

Looking back to my thought process, I feel having some more achievable short-term goal may make lurkers feel more motivated because they can sense their contribution being important. For example, instead of showing we are ~712 members away this year, we can show 20 memberships signup are needed this week. It also gives us a reason to celebrate every time we hit that goal, which in turn will generate more threads and raise awareness of the campaign.

I'm guessing that the ESPN requirement that the ACC schedule go to a 9 game schedule or play 2 FBS opponents per year is in part because the B12 has essentially degenerated to 1 or 2 good teams that have a shot at the play off and 8 that are average or worse. No one would knock Baylor if they schedule a team like USCe and they are fielding their worst team in decades. It's scheduling SMU, Northwest St and Rice, none of whom have been good in decades (if ever) that's the knock, since they also have Kansas (battling for worst team in FBS) and Iowa St who are as bad as Rice, if not worse. That means 5 cupcakes on their schedule, 3 of which they intentionally added.
