College basketball

We won by 40 the last time we played South Carolina. This one may be closer.

I wondered if there were SC injuries, but Auburn just kicked fit Chicken ass.

I get the joke, but irl the practice has never appealed to me. There's something about knowing that a game has already ended that keeps me from watching a recorded or delayed version of it. Makes no sense, I know

Here we go - beer at hand, safety equipment loaded, fingers stretched, remote within reach, 3 TVs lined up on the wall (not really) - I'm ready for sports! GoWIBisonWDEGo

I sprained my wrist flipping between 3 close endings to the long 1 PM games. All of them went my way!!!

Congrats x 2. "Silo Tech"?

[O Really]

"Silo Tech"?

That's probably passe, but back in the day there were common references to NCSU's agricultural history, usually derogatory. In addition to "Silo Tech" there was "Moo U" and an accompanying football cheer, "Mooooooove 'em off the field"
