  1. USA Today's take on playoff penultimate rankings winners and losers. One winner: The English language, with more folks now understanding that 'penultimate' means 'next to last' and not 'beyond ultimate.' https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2025/12/02/cfp-rankings-release-winners-losers-james-madison-notre-dame/87575584007/?utm_source=usatoday-sports-strada&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=us

  3. Don't Worry, B1G Happy 😁😁😁 AP NewsChampionship week: No CFP worries for Big Ten with No. 1...The Big Ten will be the only conference with a sense of calm this weekend with No. 1 Ohio State and No. 2 Indiana squaring off in its championship game.
  4. NO! Was it over when the Germans, er, Saint Nick, told Lame Kitten to get lost and head out to FAU?
  5. Stay at No. 5, por favor, play the G6, er G5 team, in Autzen on Friday, 12/19 or Saturday, 12/20. Cheer on No. 4 Texas Tech to hand BYU its 2nd loss of the season to the Red Raiders and out of the playoffs. TT stays at No. 4. And cheer for UGA to win the rematch against Bama, and UVA to defeat 7-5 Duke 🤪. If UVA wins, Notre Dame and Miami will likely be ranked next to one another, and according to PO Committee guidelines, head-to-head results will have to be considered. Miami's best win? No. 10 Notre Dame. The Domers best win? No. 16 USC. Notre Dame's best loss? No. 7 Texas A+M. Miami's best loss? Choose between Louisville and SMU. The Irish and the Canes both destroyed a ranked Pitt team in Pittsburgh. Shake your PO money maker? The Domers, of course. If the Committee decides Notre Dame is the last team in and Miami is out, cancel all out-of-conference games against P4 opposition. USC should definitely drop Notre Dame. 10-2 SC would be in the mix for a PO spot. Why should Texas play Ohio State in 2026 instead of Texas State? 10-2 Texas is most likely in the PO. 12-0 Ohio State is in with a win over Miami of Ohio, and likely no lower than the 2nd seed. These marquee OCC games with millions of PO dollars at stake are not worth the candle. Exhibit A: 2nd-ranked Indiana played Old Dominion, Kennesaw State, and Indiana State OOC. Of course, if the SEC decided to (again) support Tony Petitti's AQ PO format, then play the baddest guys on the block OOC. BTW, why does Wisconsin AD Chris McIntosh keep doing this to Luke Fickell? In 2026, Wisconsin plays Notre Dame in Green Bay at Lambeau Field and also plays P4 Pittsburgh. 🙃 I think 11-1 North Texas and QB Drew Mestemaker defeat Tulane Saturday in New Orleans, win the AAC conference title, and earn the 12th seed. The Mean Green had one bad game this season vs. USF. In five of its last six games, North Texas has scored 50 or more points. Sit back, relax, and we'll learn on Sunday, ESPN - 9 AM Pacific, without having to cross the Rubicon, how (the PO) Alea iacta est.
  6. So far, so good. Love OBD's per recruit ranking. https://247sports.com/season/2026-football/compositeteamrankings/?utm_source=247Sports&utm_medium=ExternalEmbed&utm_campaign=TeamRankings
  7. CBS reports that Hartline will stay for the champ game and through the POs. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/usf-hires-brian-hartline-head-coach-ohio-state/
  8. Thanks, Doctor. USF when he was rumored to be in the running for the Penn State job? Looks like Brian wants out of midwest winters. Is he staying with the team through the playoffs?
  9. Satake is staying at BYU. Candidates out there who have won conference titles or coached PO teams and have not retired? Dan Mullen, Brian Kelly, and Boise State's Spencer Danielson. He may have been Little Game James when it came to defeating ranked opponents, but Franklin won many football games. I think PSU AD Pat Kraft is on thin ice, even though Penn State has a very good ice hockey team. 😁
  10. Hats off to Tosh, By Gosh! Will went close to his alma mater home; Tosh is back at his alma mater in Berkeley. Danno worked for Saint Nick. No coach went through more assistant-to-head-coach hires than Nick Saban. I believe in Danno and his hiring prowess.
  11. Thank you, EBDD, for posting the latest tease from the Gurus of Grapevine. The loser of the B1G champ game will be 3rd, if not the 2nd, PO seed. If the Commish Brett Yormark's 2 B12 PO teams fix is in, the Cougars defeat Texas Tech, and so long No. 10 Notre Dame. I do not see BYU winning the B12 champ game. Texas Tech has a significant Big 12 roster advantage.🤑 That No. 10 Notre Dame dropped below No. 9 Bama is telling. The Irish and not Bama, Bama is in the field unless the Tide is eviscerated by Georgia in the SEC champ game. BTW - DeBoer just figures out ways to win football games. 🤬 Alabama 280 total yards of O. Auburn 411 yards. No. 5 OBD 😁is positioned to host (and hopefully hoist) JMU, North Texas, or Tulane. All three of these teams have their head coaches leaving for new jobs. JMU Chesney to UCLA, North Texas Morris to OK State, and Tulane's Jon Sumrall to Florida. Opening against one of these teams will not be a walkover over but it would be a huge upset for OBD to lose to one of these three in Autzen. And playing against No.4 TT in the 2nd round? Bring it on! Red Raiders, Cage the Cougars! Again! BTW, BYU coach Sitake says that he is staying with BYU. Texas Tech coach Joey McGuire just signed a new seven-year deal. PSU? Up to me, and thank goodness, PSU fans, that it isn't, I'm taking a hard look at keeping interim coach Terry Smith or going after Brian Kelly (will Kiff have a better record at LSU?), or Dan Mullen. Mullen has UNLV playing back-to-back MW title games on the Blue (lunch) turf vs. Boise. Man, it's so nice to sit back and relax. 😍
  12. Will will not have a relaxing honeymoon. OOC - Youngstown State, South Alabama, and Louisville, all in Lexington. Home - Alabama, Florida, LSU, and Vandy. Away - Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas A&M. Piece of cake, right? 🤪 🤮- Someone please, let me know where I can find a double shot of Bourbon.
  13. It isn't simply little old me. For what it's worth, the CFB world at large ranks the 5-seed as the Golden Ticket. I agree. I think Texas Tech will be the 4-seed. I'd prefer 5-seed OBD to play the Red Raiders in the 2nd round instead of Ohio State, Indiana, or Georgia/Bama. Coming off an extended bye has been no fine for Danno's Ducks. TT is a solid football team. But the schedule? OOC TX Tech played Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Kent State, and Beavis at home. TT blew out BYU at home, won large at Utah with both QBs dinged up, and lost at ASU with its starting QB, Behren Morton, not able to play. With the B12's top roster, TT ran roughshod over the rest of its B12 opponents. When OBD was under the gun for playing 'no one', did the 'experts' look at TT's schedule? Ditto, A&M's in-conference weak schedule. In the knock wood, second round, give me the never-played-a-PO-game Red Raiders, after OBD defeats the G5 PO representative, or UVA.
