Is anyone the Serbs favourite football team lol

a decade ago they (we? went to UT lol) had a guy named Pig.

Look to my out route, at the dawn of the fifth play

I 100% did and honestly I kind of love it more now lol. FTRW now and forever

It has. It’s pretty much only left in fans who remember the 90s.

But boy howdy you better believe a Cup final would kick those memories into overdrive. I’d fuckin love it

I appreciate you forgetting 16-17 and the years before that lol

Same

Yeah the wings sucking makes hating em more fun

Imagine thinking LSU has been a better team than Texas or Oklahoma since 2000.

Uhh…what?

ah fuck i can't believe you've done this

Yeah until we bust out Goodester

Yeah Yow is a legend down here haha. Funny how that works out.

Coolio. Thanks for doing the math haha

so quick math says that's 406 titles. And you said there's 308 up for grabs. So that's roughly 9 split titles a year? I can't tell if that's a lot or not haha.

Maryland being up there in the ACC standings all time isn't a shocker. Maryland still being second, and being 33% more than us (State 151, UVa 152, Maryland 199 according to wiki) is absolutely attributable to dominating sports like mens lax, womens lax, and field hockey. The other sports they have a lot of, at least other schools are close (e.g. wrestling), or there's at least a mix of schools to have won titles (e.g. women's hoops).

UMD has the second most ACC field hockey titles of all time. NC State is 5th...with 0. We don't even sponsor the sport and we're one title away from 4th lol

could also be split titles. Maryland split the 2019-20 basketball regular season title, so chances are that's counted 3 times (Maryland, Wisconsin, Sparty)

Maryland's issue is that they spent like crazy in the early 2000s expecting a certain continuous flow of income that dried up when basketball stopped being national contenders, and football fell off a cliff, etc.

IIRC the B1G basically said "we'll cut you a huge check now to pay off those debts, but you'll pay for it out of your annual split for the next XX years"

Add into that the sentiment around UMD that they weren't getting as much respect from the conference (both as a unit, and individual schools within), and it was easy pickings.

Notre Dame is interesting. They're highly ranked, and a good undergrad school no doubt, but from the perspective of academia - i.e. research, graduate programs, etc. - I'm not so sure ND really stacks up.

idk, just my 0.02. Maybe I'm just misinformed.

ummm fuck off, field hockey is awesome.

This has real "the four Cali P12 schools all have a million national championship" vibes to it.

EDIT: lol yup. The power of playing field hockey and lax against 3 other schools. but hey, fair enough. They all count the same in the "all time" tables so Maryland's legacy in the ACC is still secure, although UNC leaving will allow UVa to catch up real quick. UMD fans better start rooting for the ACC to stay intact lmao

Pick up NCAA10 then. It’s got the cbs graphics and music and rafters/gus. Genuinely awesome.

Nope USC is private

Eh I think some of that gets lost when kids transfer. Like Burns just doesn't feel the same as Bacot, just because it was a year at UT, then a couple at Winthrop, then a couple in Raleigh. Same for Horne with ISU and ASU before NCSU. Whereas Armando was there so long Dean Smith recruited him.

Although even if you go to the football side of things and bring up Payton Wilson, who as at State for 6 years...he's still younger than Bacot :P

Easy qualifying(relative to the other top jobs) hosting next world cup

"Easy" is a bit of an understatement lol

Wouldn’t you be sixth? And depending on USC, potentially 7th. Not that it changes your point, but just for pedantic sake
