47 points to Texas, defense just hasn't been good enough for two out of three days. Gotta win at Auburn now

Even if he's off by half, and he probably is, that's still a shocking figure, and it falls in line with ALICE's figure of 42% of households under their threshold for financial hardship.

The True Poverty Line Is not $140,000, But It’s Still Shockingly High
A semi-viral post claiming the poverty line is $140,000 may be BS, but the precariousness Americans feel in everyday life is very real.

Eh I'm fine with this, Miami lost to SMU & Louisville (at home), they don't deserve to be in the CFP if you can't navigate the incredibly mediocre ACC. They didn't even have a hard league schedule!

Yeah one of my best friends did something similar when he lost his job, think he 8-tabled though which was pretty nuts. Just playing math poker barely paying attention to your opponents and making enough money to live off of. He gave it up because it was super boring and worse than a real job.

I never tried to do it as a career (mostly because I was very lucky and had a good job during the poker boom of the early 00s), but I bought my first car with poker money and I wasn't very good. Just followed your friends DDAS advice very well, there were just oceans of fish back then.

Feels like they sort of lost control of the game about midway through 2nd half

I do not have the stats to back it up, but I assume some % of those blocks led directly to SH points as well. Generally momentum changing plays and it speaks to the lack of athleticism on the team as a whole. Not sure there is a good answer here from a scheming perspective.

It's crazy how the quality of teams in this went downhill. When even the Maui can't pull a real title converter it might be over

My real concern is that Seton Hall just looks more athletic than State at every position. I know that was always the concern with this roster but its one thing to get out-classed by a P4 and another thing to get out-classed by... the Pirates.
