This is all hilarious to me. Every team not in the SEC or B1G (and I’m sure some within) thinks OBD are one of the kingpins in the rigged system. There’s always another boss.

I think most here agree Riley isn’t working out, it’s just hilarious for Finebaum to weigh in the way he did, his language choice is comical. Of course he wouldn’t play for any FBS program…he also wouldn’t bat 4th for the Dodgers, or accept an Emmy or Pulitzer.

Interesting take, but I wouldn’t advise rooting for the possibility of 2 late season losses in any way shape or form.

It could have been different (more interesting?) if the B12 and ACC didn’t collectively fall on their faces. Specifically, FSU, Utah, and Okie State completely failing was huge in this not being more controversial. Those 3 teams were all considered strong contenders to make the playoff and are a combined 2-19 in conference play. Nice timing guys!

Interesting to see that perspective. I'm not feeling the controversy myself overall. Both the ACC and B12 are hoping to get 2 in, but that will only happen if things break just right. Will anyone be shocked if it's: SEC - 4 or 5 B1G - 3 or 4 B12 - 1 ACC - 1 ND - 1 G5 - 1 That's been my expectation since they first announced expanding to 12.

Apparently, Brian Jones does have a lifetime 59% correct pick rate. Barney Rubble isn't far behind.

Silly season. DL may or may not be good at the NFL, but if he continues doing what he's doing, the NFL opportunity will always be an option. He likes where he's at and flat out doesn't seem like an NFL guy. In the "olden days", him leaving to get a once in a life-time payday may have been more of a concern, but that's pretty irrelevant now.

Weather forecasts much? People around the sports world seem to keep confusing Eugene for San Diego. Forecasts for Saturday: Madison, WI - H54, L40, 5% chance of rain Eugene, OR - H50, L36, 65% chance of rain San Diego, CA - H62, L49, no chance of anything foul, but this is the coldest day of the week! Of course people will counter with "but the wind", because rainy conditions in Eugene are generally wind free? These are fairly typical conditions for both places for mid-November I get it, there was like a 5% it could have been Hoth like, but it's not. Weather is not an alien thing to a team from Eugene. Will be hilarious if it snows in Eugene this week.

This. If a redshirt is even remotely in question I don’t read anything into who is subbing in.

Over performing and the B12 stinks. IMO, BYU isn’t some world beater, the rest of the conference just took multiple steps backwards. That being said, Prime actually has a shot at making the playoff with a program the won a single game 2 years ago. Just feels like the universe is aligning for him to bail on every front.

Not a good time to be going 1-11, if they fail again next season they could do long-term damage to the program. I don't think they'll hesitate to come up with $70M. Given Prime's track record of generating revenue at CU, that buyout is a parking ticket IMO.

Complete clash IMO. I’ll be pretty surprised if he’s not at FSU.

Best way to get rid of bias is to have the SEC not win it all for a few years in a row. Still won’t change the fact that they have a huge recruiting edge in their footprint.

No sweat 😆

I have to ask, who is on the outside looking in, that should be in with this version of the bracket? Who would people move up in place of an SEC team? SMU? Colorado? This looks pretty accurate as of 11/12 IMO.

So FSU

Iowa scored 40+ a week ago on Bucky, what else needs to be said?

Beavis continues to confuse karma/the world is out to get them with indifference. Nobody is out to get you Beavis, you’re just irrelevant.

Ah the if game! I’ll play. OBD only won by 21 against the Terps, but it would have been at least 31 if we didn’t rough the punter to open the game. Case closed!

Indeed, even us lowly lapsed donors and season ticket holders got it.

Long season and navigating unprecedented waters. IMO this was just a workman like game no one will remember at the end of the season because we won by 21. The only conclusion I draw is we just had a weekend where two of the top-4 lost, and 2 others in the initial top-12 won by 7 or less against teams with losing records. OBD played uninspired football on offense yet we still won by 21. Now that we’re at game 11, I have to ask, what is with the pervasive, lingering fear of Wisconsin? It’s 2024, they’re a .500 team with a second year coach in rebuild mode. It’s Michigan with less talent. Iowa (yes Iowa) scored 42 on them last week. They aren’t rolling out Russell Wilson.

No chicken little. 🐓 Garbage effort and beat a team that might go bowling by 21. We’re 10-0.

They found a way to be relevant, shrewd move Beavis!

Good thing everyone got rid of divisions, playoffs could have been really chaotic.

So he’s saying the #6 team from the SEC could beat a lot of teams from an 18 team conference? BOLD prediction there chief.
