Zero ranked opponents. Two unranked losses. No argument for them to get in.

I wasn't lobbying for the Canes to get in (although obviously we should be in - two road losses by a combined 9 points).

I just wanted others to feel pain.

Yeah, I'm for leaving out the bubble teams with very obvious flaws. Milroe is just too limited as a passer to win three games against playoff caliber teams. Just not gonna happen. I'd love to see Cam Ward against a playoff caliber team but let's be real, Miami's D is gonna give up 40+ and they're gonna lose so why bother?

Absolutely agree concerning Milroe. When he is bad, he is REALLY bad, and you just never know which Milroe will show up.

Good Bama is better than SMU but bad Bama laid a few eggs that cost them

Agree. Good Bama could win the playoffs, but you can’t reward good Bama with the way bad Bama showed up in games against far lesser opponents.

It’s remarkable Miami is even ranked as high as they are…that schedule is cupcake city

CFP can’t decide what a conference championships mean or don’t mean. Clemson beats a #8 SMU to be ACC champs…..move up only 1 spot from 17 to 16.   Miami at stays at 13.   

I think what the committee really is saying is don’t play anyone outside your conference and titles are largely meaningless.  Final record and then head to head are the focus points (SEC teams just out show that)

What the committee is saying (lower case C, cos fug 'em) is that if you don't play in the SEC or the BIG10 you'd better win your Conference because otherwise they'll find every excuse to omit you.

Great point.  I think if SMU played Bama’s schedule they aren’t in this discussion.

Both App State and Unc fired their coaches,  so both my college teams are pretty much toast for the year.

UNC football has always been toast, sometimes it just takes a few games to accept it but the inevitable always happens. That's my experience as a lifelong Heels fan.

If App has known this NIL stuff was coming I don't think they would've made the jump up to D1. I'd rather contend for championships at the D1AA level than be an also ran hoping to land in a toilet bowl in D1. They just don't have the resources to compete in the NIL era.

I said that going into the season. The twelve team field is gonna put an end to meaningful out of conference games other than long standing rivalry games and it might just take a couple of ill-timed losses in those costing playoff spots to bring some of those to an end.

I think head to head is overpriortized this year in CFP.  They wouldn’t jump SC over Bama or Ole Miss…and should have.  Then Clemson beats a #8 SMU team to win a title and they can’t move them up and value a title because of the SC head to head.  

AP seems to have done better in that section minus where they got Bama.  They should be behind SC like Ole Miss.  They got Miami rightfully behind Clemson.

      Who replaces Evero?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      So this has been one of my biggest concerns with Canales and it's the downside of having some young offensive guy who doesn't have full staff control. like what is the org chart for this decision?  With canales, who does he know or has worked with that he can tap? He hasn't been in Seattle in 2 seasons and all those guys are gone anyway. He wasn't even that high up on the org chart in Seattle so it's unclear who he would have regularly interacted with. QB coaches generally aren't going to be in the split squad meetings, at least not regularly. Just glancing at the coaching staff, Clint Hurt jumps out. He was DC in 2022 and is currently the dline coach in Philadelphia, but that team is the brainchild of roseman and i'd be very hesitant to bring in someone who was allowed to walk from seattle and would be having a SUBSTANTIAL decline in talent here in Carolina. With Tampa, that defense is a shambles and fans want Bowles out. It's a very top heavy coaching staff too; Bowles is very involved so there isn't some bright up and comer, from what Bucs fans elsewhere have said. Someone from the Bills maybe? Morgan was last there in 2020. Who could he call? No one established is going to take that position for a few reasons. There very little talent on that side of the ball, so you're not getting the rockstar mercenaries to come here. They're probably going to struggle to bring in some hot up and comer, since anyone with ambition is going to see how Tepper handled evero's request to interview for other positions and not want to deal with that. That's a problem the team has created on its own and I don't know how to fix it until they have someone leave for a promotion, which is going to be difficult with how dogshit this franchise is. And then, any agent is going to tell their client that the Panthers let the whole defense eat poo heading into 2023 just to "give bryce weapons." they let two starters walk and traded away a third. who would want to come in to this? how are you going to build/retain talent? There's only a few logical possibilities from my perspective 1. Someone out of nowhere who just crushes their interview 2. Someone from a good defense promoted WAY earlier than they should be and you just hope for the best 3. Extend Evero. I know a lot of people hate this but I think it's going to be the best option. This is the problem with Canales as coach. I don't want to go into what I think about the offense in this post, today or as it projects, but it's just not going to be easy for him to assemble a staff, if he even has the power to do so. For all we know Morgan is handling all defensive positions and hires. unclear org charts are a hallmark sign of a poorly run organization. I dunno. i think it's lowkey the biggest problem on the team, even moreso than the QB position.

      Cardinals not firing anyone this week?

      By KSpan · Posted

      Yup. Why pass when you can get 5.1 ypc, worst in the league and with the most attempts against, and are typically playing with a lead.
