Will Conference Championship Games Replace the Old Pac 12 Cannibalization?
Interesting article. If the SEC stays with their division format, a team staying home with one loss could benefit from a contestant in the CShip game getting their second loss which they wouldn't have gotten if they had stayed home. Should conference title games continue in playoff expansion era? Commissioners mulling future of college football SPORTS.YAHOO.COM Are college football conference championship games on their way out?

Dante Moore Joins DJ in the Portal
Looks like UCLA has hit an iceberg on the way to the BIG. So far, I think this makes four defections. Although, you don't have to be a grad student to see this is probably a smart move.

Why Bo Nix Wins the Heisman Over Jayden Daniels
Unfortunately, the Heisman jury seldom considers West Coast evidence and that may happen again. The good news is that when I am the Chief Justice of college football, I will be able to: 1) Direct the verdict to the proper winner. 2) Take away voting rights of anyone who didn't list Christian McCaffery No. 1 on their ballot. 3) Take away voting rights of anyone whose ballot is postmarked prior to the Monday they are due. 4) Take away voting rights of anyone whose ballot is postmarked at all, since no one should still be using snail mail. The bad news is that when I am Chief Justice of college football, I will eventually have to wake up.

Ashton Cozart to Transfer
Wish him well, as well as all the others who choose the same route. I hope all the players do what they think is best for themselves. I'll always root for the leftovers.

CFP Contenders
If we would have had this sort of potential chaos in prior years, an expanded playoff would have come about sooner. For instance, this year, if 'Bama were to beat Georgia, but FSU, Michigan and ewe dub (I know, ain't gonna happen, but bear with me) all win, they have to put 'Bama and all those 13 - 0 teams in and the two-time with one loss in three years defending Champ is left out. If that had happened in previous years, the next year the playoffs would have been expanded, or the SEC would have succeeded from the NCAA and held their own tournament. Of course, if the above happens, ESPN still has enough time and money to expand the playoffs this year!

The Most Nervous EVER? This is the WORST Week...
I'm confident, not overly so, just confident. Of course, that will disappear around kickoff and hopefully reappear at the end of the first quarter.

12 Team Playoff Will Dilute the Regular Football Season
It doesn't diminish the regular season for me. I live and die by every game. If the Ducks are 2 - 2 (Good Gosh forbid) I'm still invested in game No. 5. I want my team in the hunt as long as possible, past a single loss. And when that dream dies, watch them ruin someone else's season. Plus, it's only a matter of time before a 3 L team makes the 12-team playoff. This year LSU is lurking at No. 13. Another perk of going to the BIG is that it is one of the only two conferences that would get a 3 L team in.

Ducks and Huskies Pursuing Cam Ward?
Reports surfaced suggesting that 10 schools are dangling name, image and likeness deals worth at least $1 million in front of the WSU quarterback, said to be considering a graduate transfer. Among them supposedly are Auburn, Oregon, Notre Dame, Texas A&M — and Washington. Although no way to verify. MSN WWW.MSN.COM

Oregon Moves Up in Penultimate College Football Playoff Rankings
I think Boo's remarks about FSU being a "different" team without Jordan Travis means they are the weakest link in the top 5. Therefore, if the games go "chalk", Ducks will jump them and they become Bulldog bait. AND, a traditional Rose Bowl swan song with a Pac 12 champ vs the champion of "one of the two conferences without a math major".

Has Pac-12 Cannibalism Struck Again?
Sarcasm alert. . . Sorry David, you lost all credibility when you included the sentence "It’s a credit to Washington for being the only team to make it through the regular season undefeated this year." And shame on your editor for letting it fall through the cracks. Other than that, fine article. In addition to the demise of the Conference of Champions as we knew and loved it, just like when Tricky Dick resigned, the press won't have the Pac 12 to kick around anymore. So, I guess it is only fitting that the iceberg struck Pac12anic conference can best be described by the verb associated with one of the remaining teams, they "couged it".

They Are Ready To Rumble!
Thanks for the warning, I thought Charles was getting punked for the first few seconds. Kenny Wheaton scoring will never get old (that was my first game back at Autzen since graduating in '72), plus "the latest Browning pose" is priceless after Verdell's OT score.
