Adding USC and UCLA to the Big 10 is a more natural fit than Rutgers and Maryland

What made more sense? Like from a traditional standpoint, adding Rutgers and Maryland or USC and UCLA? Like this actually is more of a natural fit than Rutgers and Maryland were.

Subjective opinion on conference fit.

Gamblers should bet Northwestern at home at 11:00 AM versus USC when they join the Big Ten

I got to imagine that this is going to provide a great opportunity to gamblers out there who get to finally like hammer Northwestern at home versus USC at 11:00 AM when there's like a tornado in Chicago. And the Trojans quarterback has like never seen a cloud before.

USC played Northwestern at home in 2024 and won 31-23, though it wasn't a morning game or in a 'tornado'.

In 10 years, major college athletic programs will be separate entities from the schools

Probably like 10 years from now where schools are now, like the athletic programs, the big time college football and college basketball will just be separate from the school. They'll just have the name of that school... they won't have to follow fall under the jurisdiction of the NCAA and they'll just license the name out.

This is a long-term prediction. Trends in NIL and revenue sharing are moving in this direction, but it hasn't fully happened yet.

Oregon belongs in the SEC based on vibes alone

I honestly think that on vibes alone, Oregon should be in the sec. I feel like that's, that's where they belong as a, as a school. If I'm just like going strictly off five.

Oregon eventually joined the Big 10, not the SEC.

France is unstoppable in the 2026 World Cup

When we first got the bracket, I said I was gonna go chalk and just bet on France. They just seem like there's nothing that you can do to stop him. France looks unstoppable.

The 2026 World Cup final is likely still pending or just occurring around the episode date.

The toxicity towards Christian Pulisic proves America is finally a real soccer country

I think with the amount of vitriol that has gone towards Christian Pulisic, we have shown for the first time we might be a real soccer country because that actually, it's nuts how he's gotten bashed by everyone. The fact that it's gotten so toxic towards this one guy, it's like, oh shit. Maybe we could become a country that people cared that much about it.

This is a subjective cultural take on fandom.
