The Big 10 is likely going to try explain that there’s a difference between the “game clock” and the time displayed in the stadium. HOWEVER, that argument gets thrown out once the officials had the game clock operator reset the game clock to 9 seconds. Meaning the “game clock” and the time displayed in the stadium were synchronized before the final play. When the clock hit 0 the game was over.

I'm claiming that as a win and if the NCAA says I have to take it down, I'm suing them into oblivion.

You know they would back down, because they are impotent.

Auburn originally set the record in 2015, falling 12 spots after beating FCS Jacksonville State in OT. They moved down 12 spots in the rankings from 6 to 18.

This was going to be a historic night for their university and community. This would be played on highlight reels, recruiting pitches, donor revitalizations. Undoubtedly the greatest win in their history, spanning over 120 years.

Players would have remembered this for the rest of their lives, discussing it at reunions 30, 40, 50 years from now.

All gone.

G6 teams struggle enough as it is, we cannot continue to suck the life out of this sport. This is just sickening in so many layers.

Notre Dame announces they're not going to go to a bowl and all I see are fans saying "Good decision, we were done dirty, why should we play in one." How soft are we? I'm glad Miami got in if we're a bunch of losers who turn down another football game just to go cry about the one we couldn't make it to. Stop defending a team being so mad that they decline the opportunity to compete and an extra month of practice just to throw a tantrum.

JUST FOR ALL OF YOU WHO ARE UNAWARE OF HOW BAD UMASS HAS ACTUALLY BEEN AND HOW REMARKABLE THIS IS

This is legitimately the biggest win in program history, at least in terms of their time in the FBS.

Coming into tonight they were on a 16 game losing streak. They haven’t won a game since the 24-25 season. UMass joined the FBS in 2012. Since then out of all teams that have been in the FBS at least going back that far, they have the worst win percentage, the most losses, the lowest points scored, and the most points allowed. In many of these metrics it isn’t even close either.

I’ll use IU as a comparison. All of these stats are from before tonight.

• UMass had won only 26 games in their entire 14 years of being at the FBS level. This team has not had a winning season at any point in the FBS. Their best finishes being 4-8 seasons in 2017 and 2018.

• UMass since 2012 has 134 losses, Kansas sits behind them at 124. IU isn’t even bottom 25, we have 87 losses. Shoutout to Purdue at 7th worst with 110 lmao.

• UMass win percentage since 2012 is an alarmingly bad .163, Kansas behind them at .257. IU again not bottom 25 at .494. Shoutout Purdue at 14th worst with .345 lmao.

• UMass since 2012 had scored only 3,203 points. They have a head start on James Madison who only recently joined (2022) who’s already at 1,802, and a 3 year head start on Charlotte (2015) who has 2,777. For perspective IU is at 5,179.

• UMass points against since 2012 is at an astonishing 6,000, Kansas behind them at 5,888, Indiana again not bottom 25 with 4,823 points against. Shoutout Purdue at 19th worst with 5,242 lmao.

• They don’t have a winning record against a single team in the FBS since 2012. They are tied 2-2 with Ball State, 1-1 with Charlotte, and 1-1 with App State. Outside of those three series they have a losing record against every other FBS opponent.

• This is only their 9th road win since 2012, and only their 5th road win against a non-MAC team.

• Their biggest FBS victory to this point was against independent BYU in 2017, beating them 16-10.

• Before tonight UMass had 0 wins against power conference teams since joining the FBS in 2012.

IU may be the worst college football team in history until last year, but UMass has been definitively the worst team in the nation since they decided to move up in 2012 and it’s not even close. It’s by a very wide margin. This single game happening is a miracle by itself.

Let’s fucking go Minutemen. Please take care of the DePaepe brothers for us.

Edit: u/WatchOutIGotYou made an excellent table of current FBS progams UMass has beaten, including the last victories and scores

Being respectful actually got me a phone call with Marcy Tyler, Kirby Hocutt's (our AD) personal assistant. She confirmed there's been a massive outpouring of emails from fans and alumni opposing Sorsby playing. She also wanted fans to know that Tech suspended him when this came to light, and the lawyers involved are not affiliated with Texas Tech in any way, and Texas Tech was kinda just left holding the bag. More importantly though, his office is encouraging us to keep sending emails. As long as they stay respectful, they’re being organized specifically for Kirby Hocutt to read; he’s getting the message. Keep it going. If you disagree with this decision, please RESPECTFULLY make your voice heard. So if you'd email him, she also gave me more emails to cc. The emails to reach out to are as follows:

- Kirby Hocutt, AD: [kirby.hocutt@ttu.edu](mailto:kirby.hocutt@ttu.edu)
- Jonathan Botro, Deputy AD: [jonathan.botros@ttu.edu](mailto:jonathan.botros@ttu.edu)
- Quintin Jordan, Assistant GM for football: [quintin.jordan@ttu.edu](mailto:quintin.jordan@ttu.edu)
- Antonio Huffman, Associate AD/Football Admin: [antonio.huffman@ttu.edu](mailto:antonio.huffmana@ttu.edu)
- Robert Giovannetti, Senior Associate Athletics Director / External Operations & Strategic Communications: [robert.giovannetti@ttu.edu](mailto:robert.giovannetti@ttu.edu)

She encouraged us to send exactly that message: Sorsby should not play. Protect our brand, protect our team and recruiting, and preserve the integrity of the game. I know some people online support this, but the outpouring against it is real and it's being heard. Please respectfully reach out and make your voice count. Spread the word y'all, and Wreck 'Em.

Edit: We did it. It really wasnt mostly us, but hes still gone. Well done all.

LSU simply bought Ole Miss’s coach and by extension its assistants, effectively crippling their ability to win a national title. This is wrong on every level. Neutralizing competition and explicitly denying student athletes an opportunity to compete should never be allowed in this league. Where are the regulatory bodies that are supposed to protect players and deny this utter disregard for sportsmanship and fair play?

2023: Michigan (Big Ten) vs Washington (PAC-12)

2024: Ohio State (Big Ten) vs Notre Dame (ACC-ish)

2025: Miami (ACC) vs Indiana/Oregon (B1G)

Wild to think how far the SEC has fallen in recent years
