Super full moon man.. not just 2, 3 and 4 - also 9, 14 and who knows what others I've not looked just to sick and annoyed, surprised to look any more.
Horrible..... I mean if VT plays Clemson now they are a 1 loss.. you lose to them and they won't get the runner up prize since LV is still hanging there so the better bowl games just got shoved down a notch. Its a must win against Clemson but then that pushs LV into the playoff which I'm sure they will be in top 4 tuesday.
What a damn mess
Ha if they did Hurts wasn't having it. True freshman. 347 yards passing with 4 TDs , 101 yards rushing with another TD.what the heck??? Did Bama not get the memo to lose today???
I know it was State, but the kid has enormous upside.

Louisville & Ohio St. are in an interesting spot. Unless Clempson loses to Wake Forest and/or Penn St. loses to Iowa or Indiana, neither of them will go to a conference championship game, and will still land a top 4 spot.
And I just want the best teams. Even if all of them are in one conference.
This weekend is one reason I think four Is fine for the playoffs. The season still means something.

Thats something that a friend and I were talking about ... If your not IN your CCG, you obviously didn't win it, will the committee let them in the top 4.
As always I hope they take the 4 best teams at the time they pick ... Penn State and Wisconsin will play if things stay the way they are in the Big Ten ...
I'm gonna say that TTUN and The Buckeyes both would win those games if they played them again.
I'm Liking your first sentence ...
I still think they should have a 8 team playoff ... and No it will not ruin the season.
See I disagree on the statement that doesn't matter if from one conference since that isn't a champion playing other champions meaning the best teams.... the saying one is better than another that did win their conference is subjective. Pretty much why a 8 team playoff would solve that - 5 conf champs and 3 wild cards based on ranking.
Hopefully.
It will be interesting, I can't see how they won't make it, being as high as they are and (winning out), we shall see what the Committee says about the "Gotta win the Conference Championship" line this year .... it was a convenience for them in previous years.
There have been years where 3 sec teams in the same conference were better than the rest of the teams out there, they definitely allow 2 teams from the same conference, they may do it again ... you could have a number of those possibilities this year.
Clemson, Louisville ... Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State and even Wisconsin, Wisconsin which could upset the 3 from the BT East.
Saw that earlier, a friend sent me that info earlier in the day, I thought it was a fake site ...
Now I know it wasn't.
I am not sure how much of a drop off they will have as it was a pretty close 3 man race to win the QB spot in the beginning of the year.
Biggest difference is the amount of 1st string reps they have gotten thruout the year.
Remember, the Buckeyes won the National Championship with thier 3rd QB.
I would agree with not a big drop off with the Michigan quarterback now being okorn, though nothing official yet, good game upcoming to get some reps in against Indiana he is a transfer from Houston and we know Harbaugh is the QB whisperer

College Football Rankings are out. Clempson beat out Louisville for a spot. Looks like the committee is sticking to favoring the winner of head to head games, like they did with Baylor and TCU a few years ago.
They're also setting up a 1-game playoff between Ohio St. & Michigan. Unless of course Wisconsin trips the winner up in the Big Ten game. If Penn St wins out they can dodge that bullet, which will allow us to see how much the committee weighs conference championships.
The ACC is looking pretty with it looking like 2 teams will get in (provided they win out). Which could screw the Pac12 out of a team, unless they favor a conference champion Washington over a non-conference champion Louisville (which is very possible).
Big12 need not apply.

As it is, I think Louisville is screwed unless Clempson manages to lose to Wake Forest, allowing Louisville to play for the ACC championship.
If Washington wins the Pac12 Championship games, they'll leapfrog Lousiville.
And I think the same is true for the Wisconsin-Penn St winner of the Big Ten Championship game if Ohio St beats Michigan, since they'll want to justify a non-conference champ being there by including the conference champ as well.
