Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Noice. Go get those $200 intramural tickets asap since the talent on the field doesn't matter to you.

And glad you were equally as against coaches getting paid hundreds of thousands, and then millions, as you're against players making their market rate.

Piss off

Dec 21 is my birthday. Looking forward to Hype bringing me Ryan Day's head as a present!

I hope your wish comes true!

Hope this bodes well for us. B1G not all that.

OSU has a roster loaded with NFL talent...so..they are not like Indiana

Did it cost you a bet?

Nope ‍ upgraded my spirits for tomorrow night

Not likely, but epic if true

 

[jave36]

Similar to Texas to be honest.

It's fair to remember that choosing college football champions and title games has always been flawed and wrought with bias.

How many times coulda/shoulda/woulda the Vols played for a national title that went to two other teams in the 1900s? How many times, historically, do we read about teams like Notre Dame playing nobody all season and getting voted national champs by media?

It's always been the problem with college football. But it's also one of those unique quirls that college football has that most other sports don't.

4 conferences
2 divisions each

Top 2 of each division get in based on hard set rules, as every single pro league sensibly does it.

*or some version of this based on actual numbers*


No voting. No human bias. No BS.

It's almost too simple.

 

[DD4ME]

Yeah baby

Hard to pick Dabo over Sark honestly.
I couldn’t.

Truce @Devo182

We have a huge game tomorrow and I've always considered you a bud.

Cousin Shane is my hero.

He destroyed the DJU guy that most recently played for FSU at QB. That was funny.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Not likely, but epic if true

If that is for real in Columbus tonight, then I have never been more proud of our fan base in my life. That's how you show up to away games.


GO VOLS



Everyone wearing t-shirts in the back of the truck, kinda spoils it being tonight but either way.... that was awesome

 

[DD4ME]

Stfu

 

[DD4ME]

Me post game tomorrow 12 beers deep regardless of outcome

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

It is.

It's why three 3-loss SEC teams are ahead of many 2 and 1 loss teams from lower conferences...


First order is to get rid of the guaranteed top-4 spots for top-4 conf champs. That's the biggest rule screwing things up. Asu and BSU should be at the bottom. We should have a home game vs IU, Asu, smu whatever.

That...I agree with

 

[DD4ME]

Lol

that would also work. Or 6 conferences with top 2 and a couple at large bids for a 16-team tournament. Cross the top 2 to each side of the bracket.

Any conference outside of the 6 makes a new division with a new national champion between CFP and FCS.

Shoot, maybe even play with relegating conferences. Every 6 years the worst performing CFP conference gets swapped with the highest performing conference below it lol

There seems to be a whole lot of people in here carrying water for Bama. Gross.

It’s real…my MC has refused to lead some BIG rides for that reason….but I approve on that one headed into to Volumbus

 

[Devo182]

Piss off

We ride tomorrow, buddy

 

[Devo182]

Oh ffs

I knew Indiana was deliberately overrated by the committee. I don't know who the "we" are in his statement.
