From someone that claims the scrimmages are meaningless, you certainly provided a lot of details about both of Virginia's scrimmages above. That's kind of ironic that you cared enough to know all that information.

November 4th is almost here anyway. Some of these teams, including some ranked ones, are going to get exposed quite soon. Other teams that are getting slept on will start their rise up the rankings.

It's possible to both know some details about the scrimmage & at the same time acknowledge that the results of the
scrimmage are meaningless.

I can also tell you the Steelers scored a TD on damn near every drive Kenny Pickett started in preseason 2023. Make of it whatever you like.

I know people that always use carryon because they fear lost bags.

In my case and many others I travel with, we use carryon because it’s free on the big airlines while you have to pay for checked. If they let me check it for free like Southwest, I would check it most every time.

Do you gate check those? That alone would resolve so many problems with boarding and exiting if the airlines forced it.

They all suck. Need to go back to federally set pricing and ideally a federal mandate on leg room. Then let the airlines compete with those mandates.

I like a federal requirement on leg room, but honestly shoulder room bothers me the most. I am a tall guy too at 6-3, but damn my shoulders are about 6 inches wider than the 17 inches or whatever it is for shoulder width in the seats.

I understand there isn't much to be done for shoulder width for the existing fleet, but a wider width for future plane designs needs to happen now.

Cheaper airline flights also helped create the airline vacation traveler boom, which is a curse for us business travelers. It never ceases to amaze me how long it now takes to board and exit a plane, and how many people just refuse to check luggage. These miscreants belong on a Greyhound bus.

Spring Hill suites 611 Washington rd my Lebanon pa

The mt Lebanon t stop is directly across an alley from the hotel. No more than 3 minutes walking. 30 minute t ride to acrisure.

There’s also a couple hotels in station square and south hills village. But south hills village is almost an hour away from the stadium.

Deregulation made travel cheaper but unbearable. There is zero doubt that banking, electric utility service and travel was better pre deregulation. I loved Ronald R. and supported these policies. You live and learn; well some of us do.

They couldn't be more meaningless. Last year, UVA won a secret scrimmage against UConn. UConn cut down nets again, UVA sucked out loud.

They lost their 2nd, 4th, and 6th leading scorers. They lost more production than we did.



Wake Forest generally doesnt like to play any defense with Forbes as head coach. This was evident in both of their scrimmage losses continuing this trend in year 5 of the Forbes era.


I think the scrimmages have "some" value. Yea, the Syracuse loss was an outlier. So is a 1 seed losing to a 16 seed, thats also an outlier. Getting blown out twice in 2 scrimmages is not a good look for anyone. Neither is losing by 60 like a Big 12 school just did.
