Arizona St being in the playoffs feels so wrong.

 

Colorado decided to show up the last 2 weeks. Can't believe they blew it vs Kansas of all teams.

 

 

What I wish, is they would say screw the technical bowl requirements.....and have Colorado or Miami play a team built like South Carolina.  Let the nation see the two biggest holders of the ball vs a good SEC defensive front.

There is literally a scenario where Clemson could win the whole thing and South Carolina can pull a 2017 UCF and claim it for themselves as well. 

 

Insanity. 

I welcome such insanity.  I welcome the Gamecocks mental gymnastics as well. As Dabo said yesterday, they were the first 15-0 national champ, why not be the first 3 loss champ.  My favorite part is how self-aware Dabo is off the hate of him/Clemson....and how annoyed people will be if they even win the ACC.  

but regardless, I'm pulling for the lowest seeds until they are eliminated.  Well, outside of UNLV.  I want Boise St in and see Jeanty vs a good D.

NFL board.  Ward and Sanders are projected as some variation of 1 and 2.  A matchup like a SC would be super relevant to the draft and NFL.....because it pits them against a team that would potentially take advantage at their perceived flaws (and they have the same flaw).   So, I use the 2 QBs interchangeably.  Both would provide that opportunity.

I mean people have been saying this draft was weak in terms of the QB position. This is nothing new. I also agree that Sanders holds the ball a lot. He's gonna struggle if he does that at the next level.

It's pretty simple if you take off the blinders. They lost to Nebraska and Kansas because they're just not that good. They're a borderline top 20 type of team that's good enough to play with the top teams if they're on their A game but are flawed enough to lose to practically anyone any given week if they're not on their A game.

You can literally say this about Alabama who loss to Vanderbilt.

 

What about Notre Dame losing to Northern Illinois 

Any team can be beat unless you're Oregon.

I think the winner of the ACC championship should get the one and only playoff spot.

 

You can't have more than 1 ACC team in the playoffs. The conference is not that great to be getting multiple teams.

SEC/BIG10 isn't good enough to take up 8-9 spots.    Almost every year Clemson made it in the past, most argued the ACC didn't deserve that spot either.   Which proved itself to be SEC fan fiction. This is just the continuation of that same thing but trickled down.  There are no dominate teams in football this year. 

Took UGA 3483 OTs to take down GT last week.  SMU should 100% be in, win or lose.  How would you jump Indiana over them that doesn't even play?

Oregon was losing in the 4th quarter to a one man show RB from the Mountain West.  That's why sports is fun.

    • Why is this so hard for people to understand?  At no point did I say the team should intentionally lose or tank the rest of the season, just that I hope we lose out. No, the players/team aren't trying to lose, they are playing 100% and attempting to win (however if a player is dinged up a bit, having them sit instead of fighting through it to play is the way to go for a number of reasons). But I'm not hoping they win, I want us to show fight, show improvement, but in the end, lose the game because I know it's what is best for the franchise in the long term.   There is a grand canyon sized gap between trying to lose and hoping we lose, it's not hard to understand the difference between them. The team, players, coaches, etc, don't try to lose, but as fans, we can hope they lose for the betterment of the franchise's future. I'd rather be happy for the next 10 years because we built a contending team than be happy for 10 minutes by winning our 4th game in a lost season.  If that means "rooting against us" to accomplish that goal, I'm comfortable with that because I can see the bigger picture and that's more important to me than the immediate satisfaction. And I put that in quotes because I don't view that as rooting against us.  Rooting for us to show fight and improvement but still losing to help the franchise, in my mind, is actually rooting for us.  It's just not rooting for this team on the field that particular Sunday, it's rooting for us as a franchise.
    • Have they brought Boone up from the PS? 
    • I think Blackshear plays this week but maybe limited and with injuries to Sanders and Brooks you don't want your RB2 returning punts too. I think we go Chubba, Boone, and Blackshear as the backs and these bums we picked up for returns.
