hey @stevengodfrey.bsky.social i'm gonna make you do a Rose Bowl episode this week just fyi

yesterday I sat behind an 8 year old Indiana fan named Clyde who was at his first live college football game EVER rock on, Clyde

* An amazing Sugar Bowl win probability chart * Hot damn, Trinidad Chambliss * Bama went 0-for-3 on the upset checklist * My angry notes about the Tech offense * Three first-time semifinalists! UPDATED QUARTERFINAL TAKEAWAYS: www.espn.com/college-foot...

the chosen one that avoided what felled common men

PETE GOLDING CAN’T DIE

I don’t know why one of these teams didn’t just simply take and hold a multi touchdown lead like Indiana did

The worse you decide he is, the better he plays

You moron, you know zero ball

Rose Bowl

Today I saw God die

there are so many Indiana fans here it’s making me irrationally worried the Hoosiers will lose for that reason

found a @iamhectordiaz.com at the rose bowl

Today I learned there’s a rap song all about Indiana Basketball under Tom Crean

Fun fact: third eye blind was my first concert, and I got a beer spilled entirely on me within the first 20 minutes

rose bowl

wrong bowl IDIOTS

man we are so fucked if some Actual News ever happens on the night of December 31

This is correct, as this is the official time zone of the Earth’s molten “central” core

Don’t forget to set your clocks forward

ok turn them back on now

this has been an INCREDIBLE clock destruction drive

this is what they leave folded on the coffins of stripper cops who die in the line of duty

i would like one college to adopt We Like To Party by Vengaboys as their end of the third quarter stadium singalong

i, for one, feel blessed that we are squarely in the Maybe That First Half Field Goal Miss Will Matter space

It will never stop being funny that Nick Saban narrates a Mercedes commercial that prominently features the kick six

Go birds

(into walkie talkie) cut power to the Buckeye message boards! DO IT NOW!

@shutdownfullcast.bsky.social @hollyanderson.bsky.social Hi Fullcast crew. We lost a real good one Sunday after a long battle with cancer, my BIL John, who was the world’s biggest (only?) Vanderbilt fan. If you’d be willing to amplify this, everything goes to his kids. www.givesendgo.com/synowicki

My preferred first and goal locations, in order - from the 1 - from the 2 - from the 3 - from the 6 - from the 7 - from the 4 - from the 10 - from the 8 - from the 5 - from the 9 - anywhere beyond the 10

The True SEC Diehards group chat I’m in is melting down right now. One lady just had a baby last month that she named Commodore Tigersandtigersandtigers and she’s frantically asking everyone about name change procedures

i'm not sure a supposed 4th down attempt has ever been less convincing than "kirk ferentz on 4th and 4 from the opponent's 25"

MAKE CLEAR THE PATH

it would rule if Kirk Ferentz took the Giants job immediately after this game

it’s not a moment but games 1 and 2 of the WCWS were stressful in the best way possible

College hockey sickos already know all about this but even casual college hockey fans have been confused when I try and explain the NCAA/CHL situation... this is the best overview I have heard! Listen! Also: a chance for me to plug my recent article on this very topic! www.uscho.com/2025/12/24/e...

The president of the NCAA got very indignant the other day about basketball players going pro for a bit and then trying to come back to college. But it’s men’s hockey where this door has really started to crack, as part of a larger eligibility shift. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/p...

Clay Helton in his first four full seasons at USC: 34-18 Lincoln Riley in his first four: 35-18 Technically progress!

Begging someone to give me a budget to write about this. Begging. bsky.app/profile/drey...

this is my therapy prediction markets account

it is irresponsible to not root for Saints-Falcons to decide the division

this has been the most personally entertaining NFL regular season for me because it feels like every team is a little bit haunted

The Falcons don’t make me doubt the existence of God, but they do confirm my suspicion that He is a trickster

Since 2018, the Atlanta Falcons are 53-78 (.405) in games played with playoff eligibility, and 11-4 (.733) in games played after being mathematically eliminated.

later this week on PI, available to everyone: Godfrey teaches me how to say "Bemidji"

New today for paid subscribers to Phantom Island: @stevengodfrey.bsky.social and I discuss the Michigan job opening and closing, and whether it means anything for the athletic department as a whole. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...
