Yesterday at 01:19 AM1 day No. North Texas at Tulane for the AAC championship, 5:00 pm PT, ABC.The winner will likely be in the No. 12 CFP slot to face a team in the No. 5 slot.N. Texas is one of just 7 teams this season which did not lose on an opponent's home field. (Oregon was one of the 7 as well)N. Texas has been an offense powerhouse including thumping WSU 59-10.North Texas leads the NCAA with 46.8 points per game.They lead in total offense with 511.8 yds per game.They lead the nation in number of plays 10 yds and longer.N. Texas leads in total red zone conversions and is fourth in percentage success (66 of 70)QB Drew Mestemaker leads the nation with 319.6 yds passing per game.The North Texas and Tulane head coaches have accepted new jobs (OK State, Florida), but both will coach on Friday night, and both say they have been told they can continue with their teams if chosen for the CFP.NTSU head coach Eric Morris will be on the Oklahoma State sideline next season when the Ducks visit. He is a Mike Leach protege. He coached Cam Ward and John Mateer.
11 hours ago11 hr No. If it's Tulane, I'm going to be conflicted. I want to see Oregon win a title this year. But coach Sumrall winning a playoff game would help his credibility with big time boosters, and recruits. My hope is Duke wins the ACC, and Oregon gets James Madison. That way, I can see Oregon demolish Billy Napier's new team.

Roll Waves!I bet it's a wild time on that campus right now. New Orleans is crazy enough. Imagine if Tulane and Oregon met in the Sugar Bowl.

3 hours ago3 hr No. Wow, I'm going to stop watching this game. Everything that can go wrong for North Texas has gone wrong, BUT the referees have given Tulane 14 points straight up on blown calls that a blind man could see.They need to all be investigated. This is a big enough game to have some very large bets in Vegas.I really hope we get to play Tulane and smash the crap out of the team that didn't deserve to be there. Edited 3 hours ago3 hr by Solar
1 hour ago1 hr Author No. Interesting story here about Tulane's QB. And, by the way, former Duck Ty Thompson is still on the Tulane roster, but as a TE, no longer a QB. He has played sparingly this season. Thompson was regarded as a 5-star QB recruit in 2021. An interesting case study on player development, or lack thereof.Anyway, here is the link for Tulane's current QB who transferred from BYU:Jake Retzlaff, eyeing college football history, isn’t the...Across the country is Zevi Eckhaus, a Washington State quarterback who dons tefillin every morning, prays at the 18-yard line and hopes to set an example for Jewish fans
