Never seen that one… looks like a great Christmas present to me!

Yikes. No likey.

Good time to learn how to win as a favorite against a respectable opponent. Take care of business!

Committee didn’t value wins last year. This year seems to be different… or maybe it’s only Big Ten wins that count? I’d have to check the requirements again. I’m still trying to figure it all out. Bear with me.

I think you mean black-balled. Fans of FSU are likely blue-balled. It’s been a long time and a whole lot of build up with no satisfaction for those folks.

Just put this here. Interesting projection: https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/bowl-projections-colorado-joins-college-football-playoff-field-boise-state-earns-a-first-round-bye/

They filled a vacuum of the obligatory number of BIG teams needed in the CFP. I’m with you. Their schedule (and likely the BIG In general) is WEEEEAAAKK.

Fixed that for ya. You kind of prove the point. If you don’t get a shot against the overrated preseason teams, it’s hard to climb. IU has won the games they played, but they filled a vacuum. I’ll eat my crow if they get after OSU in Columbus. By the way, this is another reason to abhor...

To be fair to Lashlee… he just got here. He’s calling it like he sees it now. I really don’t think most outside of the ACC care or pay attention. Which is all the more reason to call it out. Can’t expect anyone else to carry our water. But it begs the question many have asked before… why has...

Interesting analogy. In this analogy, the world presumably stood idly by (if not supported) during Hitlers run through all of Europe… no point in trying to undo the damage now? I think it’s odd that we would prefer that we all silently “take our medicine.” Speak it, call it out, then put your...

Because it’s on the schedule next week. ;) You can be forgiven for not expecting them to actually play anybody though. :D

we have all figured this out. SMU (and some others) are POINTING it out. They’re screaming into a vacuum, but I don’t understand why we condemn them for trying. Isn’t that what ACC fans have been begging leadership to do for years?

Everyone in about the top 10-12 sitting behind IU and PSU should be ranked higher…EVERYONE… that would include Miami for certain, and probably SMU needs to be in that discussion too. Miami and SMU arguably both have better wins than Indiana or PSU. Miami tumbled in ranks for a loss to upper /...

i agree… and I’ve said so in several posts. UGA has played the toughest SEC schedule so far. If they make the SECCG, no other team is even close. They aren’t the issue this year. There are several other teams being pushed as equals in the CFP when they’re just riding SEC coattails. Big Ten is...

Got it… yes, you’re correct. those upsets could make total chaos and I didn’t read that into your post.

Minor nit… Either Texas or aTm will be in first place. Five others will tie for second. I think there will be a push for five SEC teams this year, but the committee has almost certainly locked 4 BIG teams already. Big 12 situation is wild. It would be crazy to see two G5 champs in the first...

This still feels too generous to several teams… there is clearly a bump for one loss and undefeated members of the BIG. That conference seems to be more about who you avoid than who you play. For programs outside of the “big 2” there seems to be far less value on teams with 0-1 losses and a lot...

The new and “improved” conferences have produced a bunch of paper tigers. The committee needs to take a harder look at what teams have really accomplished.

Talk to me about Indiana and Penn State good wins. Obviously they’ve been lighting up some solid teams, right?

SC might be charmed-er Glad to see it. Mizzou has been on borrowed time. Mizzou will probably have a lateral play go the distance
