Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[MemphisVol3]

OSU has elite talent. I’d rather play PSU.

So do we. Gotta have that championship mindset of not caring who we play and just taking care of business.

We just need our playcalls to be good and players executing.

Off the wall, committee. Off the wall, Trippie.

Don’t know why you think it’s any different this week. Last week they wanted to **** everyone by keeping Bama when they definitely didn’t deserve it.

SMU played too good this week to be excluded. This will change the committees thinking away from trying to get Bama in to a more practical line of thinking (not by choice on their part). Media has been dogging the committee since last night about not excluding SMU.

We’ll see.

A lot to take in this morning but I keep going back to the Arkansas game.

Roughing the punter might be the most consequential penalty in program history up to this point. Yes, we are still in, but erase that penalty and we are either SEC champions with a bye or are hosting round 1 with an easy path.

Could be a blessing in disguise. Nico may have gotten laid out like Beck or something

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Why ditunt marshall extend him?

 

[UT = Checkmate]

Seems that’s what CJH mindset is. Give me whoever it don’t matter!

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I thought Ohio was a better program than Charlotte. . .

OSU has elite talent. I’d rather play PSU.

Neither QB scares me, especially with our defense. OSU has more talent on offense than PSU has though. PSU's defense is probably a little better than OSU's.

All that said, we did just watch Penn State gain 523yds and 5TDs on Oregon and give up 469yds and 6TDs.

Holy. . . the selection show lasts from 12pm-4pm.

How many total minutes will they show warde manuel and how many of those minutes will he be shoving OSU/bama/PSU wieners in his mouth?

 

[engineerVOL]

Penn State would be a better draw for us rhat OSU. But I am not seeing it.

I am concerned about covering No. 44.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

There would be no deliberations. It would be Ward at a Shoney’s buffet line.

Youve got to be kidding me.

Like every week, I won’t watch a minute of it.

 

[VolFanNC09]

Still don't see how you can look at Texas body of work this season and let them host. Same with Penn State.

No signature wins and at same time no bad losses. Not sure how I would rate this. PSU only losses were to Oregon and OSU. Texas only loss to Georgia twice. We had a tougher schedule than both and a bigger win, but that Arkansas loss really hurt us.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

I am concerned about covering No. 44.

I would rather try to cover him than Jeremiah Smith, Carnell Tate and Emeka Egbuka.

 

[Jimmy Football]

There would be no deliberations. It would be Ward at a Shoney’s buffet line.

He’s a Michigan man. He’ll be at the Big Boy.

Would be a nice early Christmas

 

[csprig9]

PSU was 3 and Tennessee was 7
I don’t think it’s out of the question to drop PSU below Tennessee
Tejas at 2 before loss again to UGA with a backup QB could possibly drop
Typically when teams lose they drop 4-7 spots

Fingers crossed , I know it’s unlikely but I think there’s a chance to host

 

[Volnut]

Youve got to be kidding me.

Like every week, I won’t watch a minute of it.

Yep, I'll just check in here occasionally to get a VolNation Moran analysis of the proceedings.

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

OSU and their fans will be ready for the playoffs. They will get over it once they know who they are playing

Ohio Stadium is not close to the environment at Penn State. The environment and scheme match better playing OSU.

 

[VolInDayton]

Ohio Stadium is not close to the environment at Penn State. The environment and scheme match better playing OSU.

I don't agree with the scheme portion at all. I think we can focus on the run and shut down Penn St

 

[knoxvol52]

Holy. . . the selection show lasts from 12pm-4pm.

Bracket will be revealed within first 30 minutes of show, the other 3 1/2 hours will be blah,blah,blah...

After the bracket is revealed, I got NFL to watch.

They are not going to drop Championship game losers far as it reduces the significance of those games and those games bring big money to the conferences. So I am sure there's a baked-in agreement not to drop those losers very far.

 

[Jack5151]

Bama crying

Weren't all of their losses in conference?
