Again Ohio State starts slow.

 

Boys will be boys.

 

Oregon State in the driver's seat late against UW, in the red zone melts down and loses by 3 with 8 seconds to go. Beaver D looked really good to me.

Hard to believe that the best offense in the land has failed to score on  a 1-7 Northwestern. Definitely starting slow. I'm sure they will win by 30+. 

 

Oregon State's loss was disappointing, but that's gonna make next week's game all the better. Washington should now be ranked near where OSU was, which only strengthens our schedule. 

 

Another surprise game has been Tech vs TCU. I thought Sonny Dykes would have had his team up big by now. I haven't followed Texas Tech this year at all, so I don't know how good their defense is. Could just be one of those Saturdays. 

 

Georgia / Tenn & Bama / LSU should be some telling games for the SEC. Pretty good matchups there. 

 

I'm curious to see how K State does against Texas. 

 

Does Notre Dame have a shot to beat Clemson? I believe so.

I started the post without due diligence.  I can see the weather at Northwestern is brutal.

The LA schools will thrive in that environment.🤣

Minnesota (5-3) struggling to put away a 3-5 Nebraska.  Anybody remember when P.J. Fleck and his Row the Boat mantra was a hot property?  A lot of Duck fans thought he would have been a great replacement for Helfrich.  Dodged a bullet.

Looks like the big boys are taking over their perspective games. Let's keep dreaming for the afternoon game. 

 

Definitely watching the Tennessee vs. Georgia on my phone While the Oregon game is on the TV.

Ha…they can practice at the LA Kings ice rink to prepare for early Midwest storms. Fire up a snow machine, or two, and you have a great practice facility. 

 

Although it seems unseasonably warm around Lake Gitche Gumee right now. 

Hoping for a Bama loss, Clemson loss. Got a Tenn loss

Schadenfreude alert: Florida St. over Miami 14-3 in the first quarter.

Trey Benson is running well against his former head coach.

Benson is killing it! He looks fabulous.

He gets to stick it to MariØ for not playing him more.

Too many games to watch right now.  Rutgers 17  Michigan 14

21-3 FSU--2nd Q ------LOL

Clemson got away with one, clear roughing the passer call missed.

31-3 FSU up at halftime.  The vaunted Miami offense has racked up a scintillating 76 yards---total.  Defense has given up 304.

Miami hasn't scored a TD in over 6 quarters...Mario ball at it's finest. Physicality!

TRIGGER WARNING!!

 

I watched the start of the UM FSU game, and it triggered my PTSD from the Mari0 years.

 

Regressive QB play… shudder

 

Inordinate number of injuries… shudder

 

Great recruiting stats… shudder

 

Former UO RB tearing his opponent a new one… shudder

 

I had to turn it off. 

 

 

Some of the things that need to happen for the OBD to be in playoff contention are looking pretty good right now.

 

Georgia beat Tennessee, Notre Dame is beating Clemson, LSU leads Bama and is giving them fits with their defense. TCU won, but really didn't look very good doing it. 

 

Ohio State was not impressive against a 1 win Northwestern either. Oh, the wind was blowing they say. The wind was blowing in Boulder too. 

 

Michigan was trailing Rutgers too, but is leading now.

Clemson is done. Out of the playoff. Thank goodness Notre Dame has 3 losses or the committee would try to put them in the Final 4. They still might.

Pains me to root for the Domers, but Clemson is toast.

Tennesseeya...TCU won but B12 beating itself up...good chance they lose at least one, may be all we need, especially if they loss the B12 C.G. and a 2 lose team takes the conference. 

 

Clemson...lose!  I don't care for Notre Dumb but rooting for them today.  

 

Mutts should be ranked when we play them, and if little brother wins next 2 they should be too.  We can beat 3 ranked teams next 3 weeks.

 

Geaux Tigers!!!  Lose Bama, lose!!!

Nah, now they’ll put the Domers in.

Aaaawwwe Schux!

 

BTW, the refs are desperately trying to get Miami back to looking resp... er, looking like they have a pulse.

 

Don't worry, the U is second third and goal running for all their offensive minded coach can imagine... in the wrong direction.

 

WOW... FSU ended up with the ball after that play, on their own 39!

100%
 

How did #4 Clemson get crushed by a pathetic ND?

 

ND lost to the Furd. You read that right—the 3-5 (2-5 if take out the ND game) Furd. 

 

The committee will take notice.

 

That only leaves tOSU/Michigan, TCU, and GA as possible P5 undefeated champions, and OBD would def be in if we win out. 

 

In fact, a semi-final, (real) neutral site rematch of GA v UO might just be the most watched ncaa football game of all time. 

 

 

Bama, Clemson, Tenn all go down. Huge help for Ducks

Thank you LSU! 🐅 Geaux Tigers! (Daughter lives in LA)

LSU beats Bama in overtime.

Nice...  late season CHAOS!

3 top teams fall today.

Now Bama, Clemson and Notre Dame will be ranked ahead of the Ducks. Win by 39 and drop to 9th.

It's within Oregons grasp. I talked about it after BYU. Rematch with Dawgs. Win out for both teams and that could be a reality.

That would be epic!

Will LSU LeapFrog the Ducks or do the ducks move up to 6th? I doubt they dropped Tennessee out of the top five.

My prediction:

 

 

1 - Georgia

2 - tOSU

3 - Michigan

4 - TCU

5 - Tenn

6 - Oregon

7 - USC

8 - LSU

9 - Bama

10 - Clemson

I could see that. Also, swap USC & LSU, and I'd buy that.
