  1. I've searched Google and B1G and cannot find an answer for the Peach and the Fiesta Bowls.

  3. Mercedes-Benz Stadium roof closing - Hopefully, OBD will drive off with a win over the Hoosiers and a 1-1 record in this stadium.

  4. The refs had a plane to catch? A dinner reservation? Wanted to watch the Rose Bowl from the start? Bet the under? Many suspect calls and noncalls in both CFB and the NFL this season.
  5. I'm hoping for Miami going 0-5 for the Fiesta Bowl. 😁 https://collegefootballnews.com/college-football/miami-ole-miss-cfp-semifinal-fiesta-bowl-prediction

Joseph was eighth in the nation in total offense while helping lead Old Dominion (10-3) to its second winning season
  8. Excellent article by Bruce Feldman is available on The Athletic ($ wall) 'The SEC's dismal bowl record this season points to a fundamental truth: money matters.' Why, with what we witnessed from the PO committee this season, isn't Tony Petitti's AQ 16-team PO format receiving unanimous support? One fewer G6 team in the field, but one more ACC, Big Ten, B12, and SEC teams would have been in the field along with Notre Dame. Plus, no more 1st round byes, more home games, and the PO starting and ending a week or two earlier than now.

  12. It's Portal Picking time. In the midst of the playoffs? 🤪 https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/01/02/oregon-football-2026-transfer-portal-needs/87990127007/?utm_source=smg-duckswire-strada&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=SMGbaseline&utm_term
  13. Mike, I so enjoy pouring my first cup of coffee and then finding an article from you up on the Forum. You, Charles, David Marsh, The Coach, and other Forum Friends have an in-depth appreciation of the game I do not have; it's wonderful when you all share your insights. I'm not being critical of either coach, Dan or Will, when I ask if Will has a free hand when it comes to game management. It was apparent early on to this amateur that Texas Tech's offense was outmatched and not a threat to score against the Ducks' defense. Why not dominate time of possession and dominate the game by playing smaller, not small ball? Especially when your QB is under siege, and your O-line is not playing like a Joe Moore finalist. Of course, eight 4th down attempts and a successful fake punt are not in the generally accepted definition of 'small ball.' I'm an amateur armchair analyst, but I can see why experts don't 'get' the seemingly inconsistent game plan. However,15 new starters and the team is 13-1, I am entertained. And, I have to remind myself that it took Kirby Smart and Ryan Day six seasons to win a title. How much do Dan, Will, and Dante himself trust Dante? Against TT, Dante had Sadiq wide open for a TD and missed the opportunity. He had receivers open against Indiana and missed them. He's twenty years old and has nowhere close to the experience of Bo Nix and Dillon Gabriel. The game isn't going to slow down when you are on your back. The defense and a very good, not perfect, kicking game won the Orange Bowl game. The defense shut down Penn State, Iowa, and Indiana until late in the games against these three opponents. I don't see OBD versus Indiana, and hopefully, Miami or Ole Miss, winning shootouts. I do see OBD winning if, like against TT, OBD dominates the TO battle and holds the opponents below their season scoring average. I don't expect to breathe easy for sixty-plus minutes. Thanks again, Mike, for another terrific take. PS - My Old Man was one of the farm boys who destroyed the Imperial Japanese Army and Navy. 👌👍😁 There isn't a Cig that cannot be extinguished. HOSE THE WHO, WHO, WHO HOOSIERS!
  14. You need a better OC. (On-Line Coordinator.) 🤪
