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.

Why do you keep mentioning Miami I don't care about them lol

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.

    • Yeah, I noticed at Duke last night all three of their post players had two fouls in the first half. Start of 2nd Broome gets his 3rd on a reach and at the 8 minute mark, their PG has four! In the Kansas/Duke game, Kansas got something like four fouls in a row and their crowd started booing. Bilas said I know they don't want to keep getting these foul calls, so quit fouling. Oh how I wish we could've got some of that love in Maui. That has always been a difference between us and Duke. If you spend 50% of dead balls and other team's timeouts in the refs' ears, it obviously makes a difference in how the game is called. EC and RJ have been beat to death over the last three games and last night they quit. It is easy to say that they need to be tougher physically and mentally, but something has to change. My only gripes with Hubert at this point is he waited way too long to appeal to the people with money about NIL backing, he needs to press way more with this depth, and he has to give James Brown some minutes. The kid is 6'10" and went toe to toe with Flagg in high school. I know he ended up dropping forty something spots in the rankings, but he is here now and seems to be our only big man with a motor. 
    • Probably going to depend on how severe that concussion is and if there are any lingering effects. A lot of guys recover, then you look at Oher and it ended his career. One of my close family members has post concussion syndrome and it didn't really show up in full until about 3 months after. 
    • Oh of course it would be great to have that guy, but the point is we have guys on the roster who we like their potential and could turn into that type of player. Most teams really only have 4 playable WRs, maybe a 5th, with a 6th who might be a returner. If we already have XL, Coker, maybe still Thielen and then hopefully T-Mac, getting a Thielen replacement to learn from him wouldn't make as much sense from an overall roster building standpoint than getting a smaller, speedier, quick twitch, type of slot WR instead. There's lots of types of players we'd love to have, but in a given offseason, you can only fill so many holes, I think that quick twitch guy is more of a need to get for next season than another Thielen type given our current roster, that's all.
