Dillingham to Allow Players in the Portal to Stay with the Team Through Playoffs
What say you? I think it is a great recruiting tool. Not sure what else to think about it for now. Arizona State HC Kenny Dillingham’s Unusual Transfer Portal Advice to Players Before CFP - Athlon Sports

Here is a Class Act That Should be Followed
Home team calls a time out to allow the No. 1 team they are beating to get off the Court before it is stormed. Bill Self thanks Dennis Gates for timeout before court storm after Kansas vs Missouri FTW.USATODAY.COM “That was a class move.”

Power Ranking the Old Pac-12 (Final Edition)
The Ducks SOS would have been better if the Huskies hadn't lost to WSU and Rutgers. So worth it!

Dillon Gabriel Should Win the Heisman
My ballot: 1) Hunter, two-way player, great at both. 2) Jeanty, he got his team to the playoffs with only one loss (thank goodness), Can't stop him even when you know he is going to get his carries and possibly injured arm for 1/2 season. 3) Gabriel, 'nough said. 4) Ward, good for 4th.

Oregon Football: The Ducks’ Biggest Threat Remaining
The biggest threat is Oregon not being Oregon. This is not your grandfather's Oregon! (If you are old enough to know what this is from, then you are probably a grandfather) Go Ducks!

Will Oregon Take Advantage of Their "Great Opportunity?
I think/hope so. It does not bother me in regard to the "draw" we have. Once in the "tournament" to be the Champion you have to beat everyone in front of you. If someone beats you, then they deserve to move on.

It's Set, Oregon Plays the Winner of Tennessee at Ohio State and SMU Gets in!
Couldn't afford the fare and my horse was lame. Expect next year to do away with seeding for conference champs and just use the rating with conference champs still getting auto bids.

Penn State's James Franklin Seemed A Little Testy, Sour Grapes Maybe?
Of course, a lot of that has to do with who is favored by how much. This was almost a toss-up game and they played really well.

Aren't Most of the Playoff Teams Better Than Penn State?
This game is our only chance for a mulligan, hopefully we don't use it.

30 - 21 Ducks 2 TOs 4 sacks 285 p yds My Vegas bets were a 2 parlay Ducks -2.5 half / -3.5 game; singles = -2.5 half and -3.5 game. If I win, I'm treating my wife to a Costco hot dog/drink combo with my winnings.

Trojans Wire: Oregon Does Not Deserve to Play in the B1G CCG
In regard to the article, changes will be made next year. Not sure that one, but re-seeding after each round makes sense.

Conference Payouts for the CFP
Each conference will receive different payouts based on the number of teams in the conference that make the College Football Playoff. But those teams will be eligible to earn even more money for their conference the further they advance. For the 2024-2025 College Football Playoff: 1. A conference will receive $300,000 for each of its teams in the College Football Playoff that meets the NCAA Academic Progress Rate, which is essentially a team-based metric to hold colleges accountable for their student-athletes' academics. 2. A conference will receive $4 million for each team that makes the 12-team CFP and an additional $4 million for each team to advance to the quarterfinals (eight schools). 3. A conference will receive $6 million for each team that advances to the semifinal (four schools) and an additional $6 million for each team that advances to the national championship game (two schools). 4. Each team that participates in the College Football Playoff will receive $3 million to cover expenses each round. So, the question is, and it is a Hell of a lot more than a $64,000 question, how much of the conference $$$ does the participating teams get beyond the $3Mil for expenses?

QUAAACK! Rivals 4-Star LB Flips from Miami to Oregon!
The best part is that Dan went into the Braden Florida ING Academy and got a recruit. Getting a foothold in that "school/manufacturing factory" is HUGE.
