These are the golden years:
1. Exhausted after the kids are down
2. Playing catch as it gets dark
3. Playing Barbies with the girls
4. The endless questions
5. The “I love you” out of nowhere
6. Little feet running through the house
7. The funny prayers
8. The dance recitals
9. Toys everywhere on the floor
10. The giggles
11. The 47 bedtime requests
12. Little socks everywhere
One day, I bet we’ll wish we could have just one more day like this.

Compare the #CFBPlayoff rankings from Week 11 this year (Nov. 10 rankings) to Week 11 in 2016, 2011, and 2006.
"Strength of Schedule" has officially been given more weight than actually taking care of business and winning games.
That is a massive problem for college football.

6-3 Louisville:
• Lost to Ole Miss by 3
• Three losses by a total of 9 points
• Best win: Beat 7-2 SMU
6-3 LSU:
• Lost to Ole Miss by 8
• Three losses by a total of 27 points
• Best win: Beat 6-3 Clemson
Why is LSU ranked and Louisville isn’t?

So to confirm 2 loss Bama is.
1 spot ahead of undefeated UCLA.
2 spots ahead of 1-loss Notre Dame, who just beat the #1 team in the country.
3 spots ahead of Texas, who has the same amount of losses and way more impressive wins.
5 spots ahead of 2-loss Tennessee, who beat the shit out of them.
6 spots ahead of 1-loss defending champion Indiana, who dropped 5 spots after a bye.
Sureeeeeeeeeeeee

Absolute drugs.
Best win was Mississippi State without their QB. Zero ranked wins.
Lost to every ranked team they played.

Kamario Taylor really had us 4-0 and in the top 15 and is also single-handedly propping up Alabama to No. 3 in the country.
Give that man his Heisman.
Hunter Yurachek on ESPN on Alabama: "They're No. 1 in record strength, No. 1 in schedule strength. They have four what we call quality wins because we continue to call that win against Mississippi State earlier in the year when they had Kamario Taylor on their team, they were 4-0. Alabama went there and won that game. Alabama we believe deserves to be the No. 3 team in the country."

"This new playoff will get us much better games!!!"
NEW: Florida has canceled its home-and-home series with Notre Dame in 2031 and 2032, @Brett_McMurphy reports.

It remains to be one of the most ridiculous things in sports that the company which has a broadcast deal with a conference also gets to create its own playoff format and pick and choose the teams it wants in that format.
Kevin Fitzgerald retweeted
They killed bowl games, regional conferences that are a reasonable size, conference championships, and a lot of the regular season value of the sport so they could shift everything to a 24 team invitational where a 3 or 4 loss team can potentially get hot at the right time and win all for the sake of the almighty dollar. The people who run this sport don’t care about anything other than money.

The lights in the stands turn Notre Dame Stadium into a living constellation—nothing else in college football hits like this on a Saturday night under the lights.
