How will early and mail in voting trends change?

Curious how everyone thinks changes in early voting and mail in voting trends will affect the election. In 2020, there was very much a sense of pride in voting in person in Election Day for republicans. It was a huge mistake not to take advantage of easier access via mail or early voting.

I don’t see that same prideful insistence this year. I think the GOP got a bit smarter and will do a better job leveraging both options to drive better turnout.

Mail in voting is expected to be down dramatically, which of course makes sense considering the lack of pandemic.

I’ll be voting early for the first time ever. I’ll be on a yacht in the BVIs on Election Day, so it’s forced, but an early vote nonetheless.

Follow This Logic With Recruiting...

I'm a passionate enough of a fan that I pay $100 a year to read about recruiting and what schools an 18 year old might attend and post about it.

BUT I'm not passionate enough to give $110 a year to actually help my school in recruiting the kids I want to read about.


This is the logic a number of posters on here are following as an excuse to not donate to the 110 society. Make it make sense!

OT: Flologic valve issues

Does anyone here use a Flologic valve in their house? I’m having an issue where the panel is showing ‘Val failure.’ I’ve tried trouble shooting it, and resetting the panel, but the valve itself won’t physically open. Sounds like it’s trying, but won’t. I have it bypassed for now to get water. One last thing I’m going to try is replacing the backup battery. For those with knowledge, will the valve open even if water has been turned off to it? Any advice is much appreciated so I don’t have to call alarm company or plumber. Thanks!

Question for NIL loving folks

Would you be interested in doing something similar to USC where they let people pay to run onto the field with the team before the game? (I learned of this funny enough because a penn state guy paid to do it this past week)

Imagine the money you could raise with people that would give big sums to run down the hill.

For the record I hate NIL, don’t participate, and would hate people running down the hill, but if we are changing it all up anyways and throwing away traditions, why not?

*** Projected BOX SCORE *** CLEMSON vs Virginia

Firstly the results from the Wake game:

Our offense performed just a little better than par. More points, far more 1st downs and about nailed the total yardage. Better than par is what you want to keep an upward trajectory.

This was a huge jump for our defense, however. They crushed expectations based on previous performances. Huge progress here! Gets me excited that maybe we got a chance.... Now, we'll need to string several of these together to transform into a dominant defense per our stats.

Here's the Virginia outlook:

Note that the spreadsheet doesn't like Clemson as much as Vegas does. One indicator when looking at the numbers are the yards vs points allowed. For example, VA has allowed opponents to gain about 30 yards per game more than their averages, yet have held those same opponents more than 4 fewer points per game than their averages. On the other side of the ball, VAs scoring offense is a negative while their total offense is a positive. Very odd team that has maybe suffered/benefited from fluke plays.

The numbers say that Virginia's advantage lies in their rushing attack vs our rush defense. Our offense should be able to stay pretty balanced. I'm of the belief that Klubnik was just a little off last week vs Wake - make a few more of those throws in front of a home crowd and we can cruise - struggle just enough to kill drives and it will make the game closer than we all want it.

This has the potential to be a trap game or even a disappointing (performance) win. If we do as well as Vegas thinks then we'll take another jump in the stats on both sides of the ball.
