He'll be in shortly to say how it's just a trade from loss X to loss Y, and essentially he's still correct.:crazy:

The season isn't even half over and his top 3 are all done. Impressive.

You're wrong. He has spent many hours watching tape on both of those defenses. He has analyzed every spectrum that could possibly be imagined. The northwestern defensive players will all be top 15 draft picks and future hall of gamers.

Well D4H's Heisman predictions prediction likely took a huge hit. Probably yet another long list of failed predictions.

Nope. Baker Mayfield still gonna win it. Every Heisman winner has one little hiccup on the way.

Heisman = Baker Mayfield
National Champion = Georgia

I'm pretty sure the common top 4 in the preseason was Alabama, Ohio State, Florida State, and USC. Other than Alabama, the other 3 already have at least 1 loss with Florida State eliminated.

And FTR, I'm still confident in Oklahoma and Michigan. They'll still win their conferences. Lotta season left to go.

Michigan and Oklahoma are still making the playoffs.

Every playoff team always loses one weird game. See last year with Clemson.

So you are presenting the fact that "every playoff team loses one weird game," yet you predicted that UM and OU would both go unbeaten. Is this another thing that suddenly dawned on you after the fact, like "coaching is important"?

Highly doubtful that Michigan makes the playoffs. They still have Penn State, Wisconsin, and Ohio State on the schedule with 1 loss already, and Wilton Speight is out for the rest of the season.

If you intentionally tried to pick worse than D4H it would be impossible. This is some next level stuff.

This was the common final 4 prediction in the preseason:

Alabama
Ohio State
Florida State
USC

3 of the 4 already have losses. With FSU losing 3 games already.

So yes, most people (including the experts) had predictions worse than mine.

No, because none of them had Tennessee in the final 4 like you.

2018 College Football Playoff
1. Michigan (13-0)
2. Oklahoma (13-0)
3. Tennessee (12-1)
4. Alabama (11-1)

Did you even watch the Northwestern game? Northwestern dedicated their entire defense to stopping Saquon Barkley and that opened up huge passing lanes for McSorely to find other guys. That is why Penn State won so easily on the road.

And even then Barkley still had some amazing plays that no other RB could do.


You need to watch the games more rather than just looking at the box scores afterwards.

Florida State (1-3) is in worse shape than Tennessee (3-2). And most people had FSU in the final 4.

I know people like to have amnesia now that the season started on what the common thinking was in the preseason. But most people had FSU as the class of the ACC not Clemson. In fact I was higher on Clemson than most because I had them winning the ACC this year instead of Florida State.

No. Its just hard in the preseason to pinpoint that one weird loss.
