My friends, what a CFB weekend we have this Saturday. LSU @ Bama TCU @ OK ST FSU @ Clemson ND @ Pitt Duke@ UNC
Don't forget Cincy at UH and hopefully Memphis beats Navy. One of the very late games is Cal at Oregon. Goff should have a field day.
Will be interesting to see if this Baylor QB is the real deal and can save their season. Other than that...TCU will probably run through OK State. LSU Alabama should be great.
The Big 12 "Round Robin" Tournament begins this weekend. It'll be fascinating to see which team (TCU, Baylor, OU, OSU) emerges out of this mess at the top of the Big 12 standings.
Baylor up 7, misses kick to go up 10 in the final minute, K-State gets it back and throws an INT on 1st & 10. Bears survive 31-24.
"Run through" was a dumb thing to say. I'd be very surprised if OK State won, though. Very surprised.
There is a part of me just wants pure madness, where every P5 Conf has atleast one loss. Upsets galore, Big 12 Round Robin going crazy, who knows......
One thing I'm quickly learning in this era of the College Football Playoff is that I have so very little interest and patience for these mind-bending sports talk radio-type discussions along the lines of "Let's say Mississippi wins the SEC as a two-loss team, Notre Dame wins out, Clemson loses to Florida State, and Florida State loses to Florida at the end of the season, but remember, Florida loses to Mississippi in the SEC title game. Then, everyone in the Big 12 loses one of their games against the other top three teams in the league. Does Iowa get if they go undefeated, but then lose to an undefeated Ohio State team in the Big Ten championship?!?!?" Don't get me wrong, I like the playoff on the whole, but at least in the BCS, the nihilism that surrounded the BCS rankings, and the rigidity of the computer models, at least kept these types of conversations at bay for the most part.
Wish we could leave these threads for JR to start, with his more comprehensive list, channels, days & times etc. No offense U.P. Minor inconvenience, Just have to go elsewhere now, & was my preferred format.
Ugly, ugly, ugly offensive performance for Florida through three-plus quarters has led to Vandy holding a 7-6 lead over them, one week after the Commodores got blown off the field by Houston. Just when you thought the SEC East was actually going to put a competitive team into the SEC championship game...
No kidding. Florida saved Vandy twice with major penalties to keep the drive going, but Vanderbilt just cannot get any forward momentum of their own. Calling their offense inept would be an understatement.
