4. BYU
5. Texas
6. Clemson
7. Penn State
8. Indiana
9. Ohio State
10. Norte Dame
11. A&M
12.Boise State.

I’m not ignorant. Feel free to discuss how you view it differently.

I have studied mathematics at high level and I'm real gooderer at it. I still don't get how it is we end up with a record of 10-2 when we only lose one game? Losses always go in the second spot, right? If one of you jeniuses could explain this to me it would be appreciated.

I don’t care what media people think, but Clemson hasn’t beaten anyone.

I think Dweebo is beating himself, a lot.

It's going to be another good weekend to be wearing the Orange. Tennessee playing Kentucky the weekend before the initial CFP rankings come out is a gift. Tennessee will be out to make a huge impression on that initial ranking as they should. If they can beat Kentucky by 50 they will. It's critical with some help to be 5 in that initial poll. If I were a betting man, (and I'm not) I would bet Tennessee big Saturday.

 

[rikberry31]

Yeah so, that’s not the only criteria. On the field performance matters too..

Well if performance is an issue then I think Dweebo and the boys are in big trouble. I read his wife's book.

Lost my mom to cancer overnight……Volnation has another one cheering on from Heaven.

I appreciate all the prayers from everyone over the past weeks……it means a lot.

Oh gosh, prayers sent pg!

Anthony Richardson benched. Maybe at some point NFL GMs will stop trying to find the next Josh Allen and instead choose guys who make good decisions and can actually throw the football accurately.

I think the only complaint I have is Okpara will need to score more. I know we mostly took him for defense and his aggressiveness, but he will need to score more than his career average of 6.

Milicic, to me, looked like a taller ORN today.

Criticism is definitely warranted, but I’m not worried like some already

Criticism is most definitely not warranted after one exhibition game lol

 

[rikberry31]

Classes are rarely affected by the current season, unless there's a coaching change. The experts have repeated this for years. They're built on relationships from months or years ago.

And in the case of a new HC, obviously the rebuild is an easy sell and current losing is an easy excuse.

If players are not affected by the current season why did players visit for FU and Alabubba and decommit from other schools on the ride home?

it's wild to me that Richardson and Levis both had all that draft buzz

it was like people weren't even watching them play

Do I believe Tennessee gets into CFP playoffs, most definitely I do.

Do I believe individuals that think the Committee will put the 12 best teams in the field are delusional, most definitely I do.

Any tournament that has individuals making the decision on which teams participate are never going to get the field correct.


Bring back the BCS let the computers pick the 12 teams, I bet it would get the field more correct than those Morans picking the teams now..

Hypothetical time!

Let’s say Oregon, Penn State, and Indiana all win out (yes, that would entail PSU beating Ohio this weekend, and Indiana winning at Columbus). But let’s say they do. That would lead to the 4th tie breaker to see who goes to Big 10 championship game, which is this: “The tied teams will be compared based on the best cumulative conference winning percentage of all conference opponents.”

Does the committee keep out a closer loser in the Big10 championship and/or an undefeated team that didn’t make the game because of a 4th tiebreaker?

How about this then. If the Yankees come back to win the series and Trump and Kamala are in attendance and get into fist fight but it is overshadowed by a massive discount on Hankook tires that are installed by Elon Musk's robots at Tire Pros ...
This would force the committee to make Vandy the number one overall seed and Texas fans would throw their firstborns on the field. Just something to think about. WGWTFA.

Unpopular opinion:

To be completely sure of making the playoff we need to win out to avoid being eliminated by some paper Tigers who only have one loss thanks to a bad schedule.

No matter what his body and measurables look like, the dude puts mayonnaise in coffee. That should have been all the scouts needed to know.

 

[Adam Sandler]

If Drew Allar is out vs Ohio State , then Penn State loses the game.

As of now he is a Game Time Decision..

Psu going to lose either way

@butchna

Interesting that the Hunt family lives in Dallas..

Figured they lived near their NFL Franchise.

Drafted on potential. I was always told as a coach potential will get you fired!!
