jimbo fisher basically won his FSU championship with super seniors from bobby bowden's recruiting pipeline and jameis winston

not sure how A&M saw jimbo's last season at FSU going 5-6 and thought to sign him 10 years for $75M but that win percentage is bloated because ACC barely have any consistent competition outside of clemson or Miami randomly being good



why is A&M's offense so trash when jimbo used to be OC? the cop out excuse is that the QB got confused and threw picks to the same maroon colored jerseys
miss st's defense is designed to stop mike leach's quirky offense, so whatever offense jimbo is running must be subpar in comparison



idk how auburn and a&m though they could win with LSU hand-me-down QBs...we had 1 joe burrow and now SEC schools think we are a QB powerhouse and thought they were getting 'a steal'

===

why do some football jerseys look ugly AF? kansas and some other schools wear the same colors for the top and bottom, like switch up the colors and have some flair and stripes to it at least...the curved skinny jersey numbers on kansas look weird, too, like have Nike or somebody overhaul the jersey to look cool so that recruits would actually wear and play in that shyt if it wasn't for some 'tradition' for why they look like that

===

some college football jerseys look like NFL jerseys and vice versa, so a lot of unimaginative NFL teams have these 'NFL draft pipeline preferences' because their jerseys look alike: ohio state goes to the 49ers or raiders (because of that helmet stripe and similar colors), ole miss (patriotic color schools) goes to the NY giants (i.e. eli manning) or the Patriots, lsu goes to the vikings (justin jefferson/patrick peterson for purple and gold), cal and michigan goes to the chargers or rams (blue and yellow), iowa to the steelers, college tiger teams goes into NFL tiger teams (burrow, ja'marr chase) or if they have a similar mascot

NFL teams tend to recruit and tryout players from colleges local to them (or something random like the Saints like to draft players from ohio state but not LSU because of the head coach's preferences of keeping the players out of trouble if they grew up too familiar to their local environment and would prefer to draft someone from out of state but that just results in the Saints barely having any hometown heroes on their roster to cheer for and why the Saints still suck because of nitpicking drafts not based on evaluating pure talent; ravens like to recruit from florida speed schools to find their next ray lewis body type players, so there's a lot of pseudo science reasons involved when drafting players from certain pipeline schools)

nfl teams with one predominant color tend to recruit from colleges that have that same predominant color (like the chiefs from georgia, cincinnati, alabama, houston, texas tech, wisconsin, maryland, ohio state, stanford, etc for the color red), etc...plus when the player gets drafted, they don't have to try hard to photoshop their college jerseys into the NFL jerseys

teams also make players drink gatorade flavors with the same school colors...imagine that your rivalry prevents you from drinking lemon lime or all the cool blue flavors and restricts you to drink gross ass generic red berry flavors...

if the NFL roster currently has too many players from one college, they tend to not draft players from their rival college because of locker room dynamics

===

NFL/NBA wins are more based on storylines to tell a narrative for entertainment value, so they always pump these crazy comeback/redemption stories prior to an NFL/NBA game to sway betting lines, and then mix that in with sage and the meditation power of auto-suggesting that you already won the championship like how phil jackson used to do for his championship runs that now every other professional team does that with freudian slips during pre-game interviews of players saying they already won prior to the matchup to stir up more conspiracies...but then again, professional sports are more classified as 'entertainment' than 'sport' so that's why people enjoy the fukkery of bad execution and the prevalent upsets in college football despite some biased refs trying to fix games to preserve the rankings of certain teams over others to win out their conference schedule, like how michigan state got favorable calls against maryland this weekend, and that game was basically a battle of nick saban's coaching tree of black head coaches in the big 10



this isn't football but I still find it kinda funny that draymond green hates michigan but ended up in yellow and blue for golden state

...don't worry about it, these are leftover random thoughts


You really think nfl teams are going to draft based on what a players college helmet stripe was, or ease of photoshopping jerseys breh?

Tennessee and Ole Miss??

If dudes can dismiss Wake Forest, NC State and other teams because of their past histories then so can we about SEC teams.

Until Ole Miss proves to be anything other than a mid team then they shouldn’t get respect just like how SEC fans don’t respect other teams
