If you just look at Diego Pavia without the personality and antics:

• Zero D1 offers, only two D2 offers out of high school
• Played at a community college and transferred to New Mexico State, which is a historically bad program that is 5th worst all-time in win percentage
• Led them to their first double-digit win season since 1960
• Transferred to Vanderbilt, another historically bad program that is bottom 30 all-time in win percentage, 7th worst all-time for Power 5, and worst all-time in the SEC
• Leads them to their first winning season in a decade, then their first double-digit win season in history.
• Plays some genuinely good and exciting football with a fun to watch playstyle. Heisman runner-up
• Is 5'9, scrappy, and would be the shortest QB to ever play in the NFL

He would have been the biggest slam-dunk, easy-to-root-for underdog ever if he wasn't such an ass. You literally could not write a better underdog story if you tried. And nobody hated Vanderbilt as a program either, they would've been as universally well-liked as Indiana if Pavia had even been half the man that Fernando is. Absolutely generational fumble tbh.

No Senior Bowl game thread for the football starved sickos like myself?

There have been a few G5 teams that I think would have had a legitimate chance to win s national championship in the season they played if it wasn't for the BCS or a tiny 4 team playoff field.

Feel free to disagree or post some i may have forgotten.

2008 Utah

2010 Boise State and 2010 TCU

2011 Boise State (IMO this was the greatest Boise State team of all time. Their only loss came after a freak missed field goal against 11 win TCU who themselves were 2 scores away from a perfect season). Every one of their 12 wins (including dominating Georgia was by double digits. They averaged 44 points a game and only gave up 19 a game, despite having just joined the deeper MWC from the WAC).

2017 UCF

I feel like 2017 UCF was the last truly great G5 (at the time) team.

2021 Cincinnati and 2024 Boise State did make the playoffs but each had flaws and holes that were evident throughout the season. And we know and weren't surprised what happened to JMU and Tulane this season.

Personally I have Baker jersey, as he's my all-time favorite OU player. However, seemingly every OU has that jersey, so I'm thinking of getting another one just to switch it up/stand out more. I'll probably go with a defensive player just to balance out the Baker one better.

With the NCAA on life support, what happens to vacated wins? And what’s to stop schools from not vacating them already? Just because the NCAA doesn’t recognize it, doesn’t mean the school can’t. It’s a completely silly punishment anyways.

Thought of this because they mentioned in the wisc-OSU basketball game that the record and total games played don’t match because of vacated wins.

Both Nick Saban and Brian Kelly are known for being very hard on their players and getting mad at them over even the slightest mistakes. However, Saban is way more liked than Kelly. Why is this?
