St. Louis Gamecock

So will I! Against the treasonous orange slobfather!

Good job, Mizzou! I'm with Vehemon - this is a good list!

Please, DixieDuck - take Finebaum to the B1G. I'll gladly give him to you - FREE OF CHARGE!!! Go Ducks!

OK, hoping somebody here can explain something to me re: betting. I’m not a betting guy so I really have no idea how to go about even placing a bet – obviously I never do. But, here’s my question. Let’s say Alabama opens up as a 3.5-point favorite over Texas. I’ve seen it written like this -> Alabama (-3.5) vs Texas. But why isn’t it written Alabama vs Texas (+3.5)? I’ve seen it written both ways and have no clue why some list the point spread with the favorite as a negative number or the underdog as a positive number? One more question. I’ve seen odds where one must bet $125 in order to win $100. Why would anyone do that? Aren’t you losing $25 before you even start? Or do you get that $100 back? Lotto tickets – the only gambling I do and that’s rare!!! Thanks!

Agree, Leg! Taking the spotlight off yourself and illuminating your teammates. Very classy. Thumbs up to DJ!

Why would Swinney leave his gig at Clemson? He's a good coach, gets good recruits, good fan base, good program and a top dog for a while in the ACC. I don't see him going anywhere. And can't understand why he would. And no way Drink leaves Mizzou for Clemson.

I like Michigan - my fav team in the B1G. Buddy of mine went to business school in Ann Arbor and I've been to their campus once. It was great! Go Wolves!

I agree, Wolfman. Living in STL I keep up with all the local teams and believe Mizzou is in for a heck of a year. We shall see, but I'm betting the Tigers keep building on what they achieved last year. Pre-season "way too early" polls have also been kind to Mizzou. Adding TX and OK to the mix in 2024 makes the SEC that much tougher, but I'd put cash that your Tigers are upper tier this year! I wish you guys well.

Who is hating on Clark? I've read nothing but accolades about her - all year long! And well deserved. Imagine how the rest of the Iowa team feels. It's Clark's Iowa. It's LSU vs Clark AND Iowa. SC vs Clark AND Iowa. You'd think only one person plays for IA. There's no doubt Clark's mystique drew ratings, but I also think an unblemished season on the line for Carolina drew viewers. We'll see how ratings play out in the future - but it is nice to see women's basketball receiving much-deserved hype.

Yowzer!!! ROLL TIDE!!!

I'm going to flip over to the ACC website - maybe I'll find some articles on the SEC???

Me, too, Eight Titles. Me, too!!!

I would have had fun, too, if my team was 11-2!!! Congrats to my Mizzou buds up here in St Louie!

Finally, a championship game where I actually like the two teams! Michigan is my fav in the B1G and the Huskies are my fav in Pac 12. Of course, Bama is my second fav in the SEC so I'd been happy with the Tide, too! Here's to a good game with two newcomers!

Ha! Well-played, Tigurrr! Well-played!

And Boo Radley!

Let's roll out the red carpet for tRump. Welcome, American Traitor!

Go Rams!!!

All of us, raptorvol! $%*ALL(&%#$%OF(*%##&US!

I'm with UGA Grad 1994. Here's hoping NE wins by infinity!

I don't even know what ChatGPT is!!! Seriously.

I'm sure I'm showing my naviety, but I really wish commits would not keep changing their minds. Someone verbalizes their commitment to a school then we hear he flips later. My question - why not commit to what you flipped to in the first place??? We have these big ceremonies where hats are played like musical chairs and it's all televised - all focusing on the player and his "look at me" moment. Sure, we like guys to like our schools but it's bordering on ridiculous. When I hear a recruit chooses my team two years in advance I just smile - I hope it's true but also wonder how many times he'll flip and when's he hitting the transfer portal! Yep - I'm probably more old school than most - and I don't necessarily want to live in the past because I know these are the times we are in - but I think something is missing these days with college sports. Sometimes I just want to hear Keith Jackson again calling an Army/Navy game!

Man, when I used to drive home to SC (from STL) Waffle House was a staple for me - especially coffee for the road and sausage for the pup!

This guy could change his mind if he committed for NEXT YEAR! I never get why some commit and then change their minds shortly thereafter. What happened and why change? Why not wait until you can be sure it's final? Seems to be the way of athletics these days. Grab 'em early, hope they stay.

I actually hate it that conferences are breaking up. I really like teams in the Pac-12, especially the Huskies. Next to Carolina, Washington one of my fav teams. And their campus in Seattle is great! But I'm old school. I like all the conferences and wish all were successful to maintain who they are. I get money drives decisions today, but sometimes, enough is enough. I guess there's no going back and that makes me kind of sad.

I actually like Michigan. Buddy of mine went to business school in Ann Arbor. I've visited once - great campus! Wolverines, by far, are my fav B1G team!

"It'd be nice to beat Georgia?" Ha! Isn't EVERYBODY saying that - yet no one is doing it!

I like that Rock M area of Mizzou's stadium. I was there for a Carolina game one time - and while that area was not full - it seemed like a cool place to hang out for a game. I've seen pics before where the grassy area was full and it's looks good! Let's face it there are some stadiums (Carolina is one) where we're just not going to draw 100,000+ people to a game like the Bamas, Georgias, Michigans and Ohio States of the world. I'm cool with that!

If this were to happen, STLG, I'm betting Sanders would have canonized himself before anyone else had the chance to do so!

I like ol Bennett! I wish nothing but the best for him.
