I know that a lot of SEC fans were critical of bringing them into the SEC, but it made no difference to me. However, there are some teams I wouldn't want to see in the conference, but I'm okay with Texas. We all have our likes and dislikes! I don't think Texas played their best game (the last one), so I'm curious to see how tonight goes. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/12545-college-football/page/86/#findComment-8551207

Shouldn't we instead be focused on what they've done for their teams & communities?

Well, Ryan Day is not of Asian descent, so that's probably why no one ever mentions it. Marcus Freeman, however, is of Asian descent, and it would've been nice for him to be acknowledged in equal measure as the first black and the first Asian head coach to play for a national championship. I rooted intensely against both Ohio State and Notre Dame, so I both won and lost. And I hated all of it. However, in that perfect state of rage equilibrium, I achieved nirvana.

I saw on SC before the game that they posted he was. My apologies. Or I misread it. And the jerk who Tweeted that Day would/should be fired is just one person. The Natty buys him some time - maybe a year or two. But he still has to beat TTUN. However, we beat TTUN 9 times in a row - including 5 by 'Ol Khaki Pants - before they started cheating.

Woody will always be #1. Anyway, in the entire 150 yr college football annals, Ryan Day is the third winningest coach by percentage, after the guy who started it Walter Camp, and Knute Rockne. I was surprised to hear that, but then several sites/anchors/pundits said the same thing. Yep, he has a higher winning percentage than Nick Saban. Nick is 13th in percentage but one in number of wins. This includes his entire career, not just Alabama.
