So, Who is the Best Team in the SEC?
With its reconstructed O line, Georgia. And the Dawgs will prove this with its second win over Texas in the SEC champ game.

Guess Who is the LAST Remaining Undefeated Team in the Nation?
Hats Off to Notre Dame for finishing 3-1 vs. the G5. One Heck of an Accomplishment for a Proud Program! And that Huge Win over A+M! (What's that? A+M Has THREE losses?) But don't forget another 5-0 vs the Awesome ACC. Didn't you watch Ferocious FSU blowout out Charlotte yesterday? And Yes, Virginia, you do Stink! 😁 But the Domers have The Men of Troy left to play; a Trojan team that finally won a 4th quarter. 🤣 What a $CAM. PS - Please enjoy the time off on the day OBD is battling the No.2 team in the country.

Ohio State 38 Indiana 15: What Do You Make of This?
Greg Sankey had to go through a case of Pepto Bismal yesterday. Who are these guys? 3-loss Ole Miss self-destructed like it did at the end of the game vs. LSU. The refs did all they could to hype the Longhorns and Aggies reunion to no avail as now 3-loss A+M went down in the 4th OT. And 3-loss Bama. What in Hades was THAT? Is there a single Road Warrior in Dixie this season? Bama - losses at Vandy, Tennessee, and Oklahoma. Come Back Saint Nick! Continuing to play a B12 schedule in the SEC (insert Georgia for B12 Oklahoma) Texas took care of business vs. a mediocre (sorry, Greg) Kentucky team. The Horns best win? Looks to be against 6-5 Oklahoma. And don't look now Sark but with yesterday's furor it looks like you be playing Georgia in Atlanta on 12/7. 😁 Greg, the floor is yours.

Ohio State 38 Indiana 15: What Do You Make of This?
Thanks, 30. In answer to your question: HECK YES! Jim Knowles Buckeyes D was not the group that made the trip to Eugene. Yes, there are still holes, especially at cornerback, but how about this statistic? SACKS vs. OBD - ZIP! SACKS SINCE THE OREGON GAME BEFORE SATURDAY, 17. SACKS AFTER A HOOSIERS HOSING, 22. Ohio State played ferociously yesterday, including another rebuilt O line. The game looked like what it was, future NFL players versus G5 All-Stars. Indiana battled but the Hoosiers were outmanned and had to play a perfect game to win and did not do so. To defeat the Buckeyes in Indianapolis, Ohio State will defeat Michigan and be OBD's opponent, The Ducks D will have to play better than it did in Autzen and pressure QB Will Howard who despite his stats is still a weak link. And OBD's O-line better be ready to play its best game of the season. Yesterday, The Ohio State University looked like a team on a national title mission and the fans who travel in droves to Indianapolis had the old shoe rocking. BUT FIRST THINGS FIRST. Danno needs to get a mangy dog off of his back. WASTE WASHINGTON! PS - Is Gus Johnson the recruiting coordinator for Ohio State? 😧

Transfer Portal Musings
Where he ends up in the P4? Unknown. But Tulane QB Darian Mensah who beat out Ty, is going to be highly valued if he portals out. Word is that his representatives have already been contacted by Miami. Kurtis Rourke transferring from Ohio to Indiana is Exhibit A for what a G5 QB can do for a P4 program.

The SEC is Mad and They Aren't Going to Take it Anymore!
I agree that the SEC is deeper than the B1G. But which schedule would PSU and Indiana play? The Mizzou/Texas schedules or the Georgia/Bama schedules? Indiana had one common opponent with Texas, both defeated Michigan. And which team would show up? Georgia at Ole Miss or Georgia at Texas? Bama vs. Tennessee, Vandy, or Georgia? Ole Miss vs. Georgia or Ole Miss vs. Kentucky? Texas vs. Oklahoma or Georgia? I do not see a consistently elite team in the SEC in 2024. This is the case for most of CFB with the possible exceptions of OBD and Ohio State. However, both Oregon and tOSU have struggled in 2024. It will be interesting to watch the games if both the B1G and the SEC put four teams into the PO. How will SEC teams perform in the North in the post-season? A question B1G fans have asked for decades. A White Out in a possibly literal whiteout in December in Happy Valley will not be easy for any team, SEC or otherwise. With 5 of the PO games being played in Dixie, advantage SEC. I reiterate. To date, no team is being PO-hosed over more than the Athens Dawgs. Best of luck today with UMass. 😁

The SEC is Mad and They Aren't Going to Take it Anymore!
Friends CalBear + 30, Texas has the same number of wins vs the Committee's Top 25 as Indiana and it has one more loss than Indiana. The SEC is deeper but the SEC will have nine fewer losses than the B1G until it plays 9 conference games. This Saturday sees games vs. UMass, UTEP, and THE CITADEL! In a 14-week season, these games = a third Off Week late in the season. Mizzou is 23 simply because it's in the SEC. Mississippi State, Kentucky, Florida, and LSU aren't all that. Not every SEC game is a battle of behemoths like never witnessed before. I kind of get the SEC playing 8 but the ACC? And I get SCOREBOARD. The SEC has earned its football field bona fides. 8 games have the potential to result in utter champ game chaos. Make It So!

What if Indiana Beats Ohio State?
Move Over Tubes! Only Washington D.C. could view the underdog story of the Indiana Hoosiers as a problem SPORTS.YAHOO.COM Indiana barreling into a late November game with Big Ten title and playoff stakes on the line should be held up as a reason why college football is better because of NIL and the transfer portal.

Trouble in Paradise re BIG TV Deal
The B1G Champ game is in a dome in 2025, 2026, 2027, and 2028 when the game moves from Indy to Las Vegas. But Midwest home games could get nasty. As could a game in Eugene in December. I played games in the snow growing up in New England. No one died. It was FUN. All CFB players would have been happy to be in the NFL and playing ball in Cleveland last night. I have to disagree with you here, my friend. These are Football Players. I think games in tough conditions are perfectly acceptable and to be expected.

Trouble in Paradise re BIG TV Deal
B1G Whoop. No one knows what the landscape of CFB will look like come 2031. It could be that the Power 2 will have scavaged Notre Dame and ACC/B12 teams of interest, and the Power 2 will collectively go to the media marketplace and/or move the games to Venu. Venu was not formed on a whim. And today's antitrust issues could be gone before 2031, especially with the change in Congress. Who needs a PO when you can play a CFB World Series? Who needs to share the $ with weaker conferences? Do I like this? Not especially but Size goes to Size in business and I think something like the above is inevitable; especially, if the House settlement is approved. How many programs will be able to step up to $20M+ a year in direct payment to athletes?

Greg Sankey, Serenading for the SEC? Who knew (except the folks in Tallahassee. 😁) 🫣🤣🥲 You Go, Greg! And with the conference so deep from top to bottom it won't be upsetting when Kentucky beats Texas, Auburn beats A+M, the Cowbells beat Mizzou, and Florida swamps Ole Miss, Right? I do think Georgia will survive UMass and the Vols will take down UTEP. 😊

Lanning’s Most Crucial Defender is ALMOST Finished…
Recruiting and player development matter, no doubt. But in today's CFB you also have to be a primo portal picker with the alchemy skills to blend in the newbies. SEE: FSU in 2023 compared to the Seminoles in 2024.😧 Who knew that OBD would bring in the better Uiag? 😍 Thank goodness for Burch, Harmon, Chadwell, and the DBs who Danno and Division Street scored.

Don't Forget the Hand Warmers and Long Johns. Ohio State football vs. Indiana weather forecast SCARLETANDGAME.COM The Ohio State football team will play another top-five team on Saturday. Unfortunately, the weather won't be as pristine as it has for every other game. It's nice the stadium in Indy is enclosed. It snowed down in Cleveland last night for the Browns/Steelers game. The weather for a few 1st round PO games could be very interesting with Indiana, Penn State, and Ohio State potentially hosting games. 😵 I was married to Wife Uno for 25 years. But it felt like 50 with The Wind Chill Factor. 😁
