Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

I own an Oregon shirt because I have family out there. I will be a huge fan next week. I do not own a Texas shirt, but I will be a huge UTjr fan next week also.

It is so cool to finally have that lockdown corner with the swagger that Jermod McCoy has

 

[JCVol00]

I wish our team would have gotten that upset when Oklahoma planted their flag on our field back when Mayfield was in town.

Our teams had no pride under butch or pruitt

Neyland is a spectacle. In a playoff environment?!?! Unimaginable. Remember that, committee.

Norvell's last act as FLA ST head coach....

LOL. Mike Norvell is a dead man walking.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

These are the top 20 defensive teams in college football. 8 are in the BIG. Why do they get propped up for having teams that do not know how to throw forward passes?

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Here are the top 20 offensive teams. We are in rare air being top 20 in both. If our special teams improve, and Dylan stops fumbling in the 1st Q (what is up with that???), we will be tough to stop in the playoffs.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Keeping Miami in is crazy. Eye test over SOS, who would ever schedule a tough opponent again

Offense sells. Cam Ward is a Heisman finalist. I agree with you, but it is what it is.

Tennessee State hung in there with Montana..............Great job by Eddie!

UT Martin??? WTF.........Can't believe they beat New Hampshire and advanced.......They will be better next year with Ty Simpson.

What do you think happens next year when Jourdan Thomas comes back? Does he or Boo move to the back end? Harrison been playing well too but does he stay at nickel too? All three of them are good at nickel but we can’t feed 3 of them significant PT. Really good problem for the team to have for next year though.

Boo still struggles in coverage at times. I think his best spot is safety. He can ball hawk.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Georgia dropped 8 spots with a 2nd loss losing to a highly ranked Ole Miss on the road, yet you are gonna tell me OSU only drops 6 losing to a terrible Michigan team AT HOME??!! That would be ludicrous! Sankey and Danny need to riot and blow up the committee’s phones if this happens!

Same argument can be made for us dropping with close wins. In this scenario GA should also drop. If the QB doesn't fumble (targeting), they are on 3 losses and anyone that watched that game knows it.

What bothers me most about CFP.

1. Committee - they have shown subjectivity & biases
2. T&C's - This isn't grammar school 4 square. What are concrete parameters?

"Hmm, I feel like..." doesn't belong here.
3. ESPN - should have as much say as AP,'Sagarin, and Coaches. 1/10 sound about right?
4. - Tournament Seeding - Again, clearly defined. You win this, you get this.

One more year.............but that seat is toasty

I’m all for giving Austin Price more say in this. I think he would give us a fair shake.

As you can tell from my handle, I am originally from OK, and married a girl from here and settled. I followed both teams. After Striker planted that flag I was over OK. I almost dislike them as much as TX now. Disrespectful.

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Who you got?

Texas (close)
Oregon (convincing)
Clemson (convincing)
Arizona State (convincing)

First change in order for the CFP is to change auto bids for CC being in the top 4 for a 1st rd bye. If Clemson, who will most likely be ranked >= 15, beats SMU they shouldn’t qualify for a top 4 slot. They aren’t top 4 worthy just for that game. I can live with them being bumped to the bottom of the CFP, say 10-12. But they aren't worthy of top 4, even top 6-8.

I think he will be at safety next year, punt returner, and get looks on offense.

The Chairman of the CFP selection Committee should NEVER be an AD from ANY P4 conference. The Chairman should be an AD from a Group of 5 conference every year, the only way that individual could be biased is deciding between Boise State or sn AAC team.

 

[tnhunter 10]

I mean it's not wrong, but won't happen. The committee changes their stance weekly.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

That’s bad. Real bad.

Boise, Clemson, Notre Dame, nor Arizona State deserve a first-round bye.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

They are absolutely going to **** us over and keep OSU above us. It’s BS

Agreed. 1000%
