For the weekday crowd, this is worth repeating: TSA Precheck was recognized by the security authorities at the airport in Montreal (YUL). - Mop🧹 Dec 2, 09:42 4
- don't you preclear US customs in Montreal, i assume that's why. I have a Nexus card so i see it on all my US-bound flights (not that i have a lot, but still). -- nm* - Andie Dec 2, 09:44 3
  - Yes, pre-clear US customs in Montreal. That's what my Global Entry does. But customs is different than security. Security is what TSA Precheck does. - Mop🧹 Dec 2, 09:56 2
    - i know. TSA doesn't apply to all flights from Canada, just US bound ones. -- nm - Andie Dec 2, 09:56 1
      - Air Canada has a whole page on it. - Andie Dec 2, 09:57

A CFP projection - rollo Dec 2, 08:44 16
- Doesn't look like they're really taking the Conference Championship Game results into account other than the winner. - Dano Dec 2, 09:02 8
  - It’s a bit of bullshit to drop a team who qualified for a title game in favor of teams not good enough to make one. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 2, 09:06 7
    - On the other hand, if you have two 2-loss teams and one beat the other head to head. - Dano Dec 2, 09:35
    - Yeah, they've said they wouldn't penalize conference title losers, but I'll believe it when I see it. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 2, 09:18 5
      - If they're not penalizinig conference title losers then are SMU and Boise St getting in even if they lose? -- nm - Dano Dec 2, 09:55 2
        
        If Clemson were to lose, that's a 9-4 team in the playoffs which makes no sense. Especially in that weak conference. -- nm - ty97 Dec 2, 09:59 1
        
        Right now Clemson's ranking would not put them in the playoffs as an at large team. SMU and Boise St's ranking would. - Dano Dec 2, 10:12
      - I'm not sure that's a good approach to ignore the outcomes TBH -- nm - ty97 Dec 2, 09:55 1
        
        I agree. You shouldn't be able to gain with NO possibility of loss from the game. -- nm - Volnelk Dec 2, 10:00

- Now we gotta see if they give Boise State a home game or not (despite the seeding) -- nm - Trending Dec 2, 08:46 1
  - I thought remaining games were neutral site after the first 4 -- nm - rollo Dec 2, 08:48
Aside from Flagg, two different Rutgers players could go #1 overall (NBA)— additionally Rutgers +1300 to make Final 4 and +5000 to win it all -- (edited) - Trending Dec 2, 08:44 [Attachment] 2
- And Rutgers lost to Kennesaw State -- nm - Dano Dec 2, 08:48 1
