  1. I think it is 3-2 commanders twice and vegas. I just don't see the commanders beating them away or home.
  2. we will know soon because if he aint good at politickin' then he's worthless.
  3. It is interesting that while the bowls are involved in this, I don't think they have any say anymore. butts in seats don't matter. They get quarters and semis and get to still wear their cool jackets, have dinners/events and hand out a trophy, which is all they ever cared about anyway.
  4. it won't happen but the funniest thing would be BYU kills Tech, Bama loses convincingly, and Bama/Tech drops out after losing to teams they already beat and we (or Miami) take the 10th spot.
  5. This make sense, Bama and Miami both left out last year. this sets up for at least one of them being in unless BYU wins.
  6. The FanDuel contact had to get some info from his/her(probably a her if I had to guess) committee contact first.
  7. I'm on board but it is funny that the problem is ND will schedule whoever and go 12-0 or 11-1 and still be in the playoffs because nobody cares about SOS. they get USC which is always good enough to determine if ND is good or not. I keep hoping that some day a situation will come when an 11-1/12-0 team with a SOS of 70 gets bounced for a team at 9-3/10-2 with a SOS of 5 but realize it will never happen. DKR's quote of "first Notre Dame has to lose" just needs to be updated that "first Notre Dame has to lose 3". the man was extremely wise.
  8. that says more about the committee being a bunch of morons than it does about us... and if that is the case then we should be getting 10X credit for our game against tOSU.
  9. yeah that's all bullshit, we'd absolutely be in, and she's just saying what is already known, by anyone with a functioning brain, that the committee will say. They will slather that bullshit all over the place to try to save the "won't get punished for OOC losses on big time matchups".
  10. the problem with Bama dropping even with a 20 point loss is that they already beat Georgia at Georgia. committee will just say "yeah we can have the rubber match in the playoff!"
  11. Texas has already scheduled Arizona State.
  12. they shouldn't have lost to a "much worse than Florida", Florida State...or I think that is how this discussion goes but I could be mis-remembering as a famous UT alum once said.
  13. this is not to you but I don't know why everyone is wrapped around the axle here... 3 losses is the issue. we are out no matter what with 3 losses the Florida game was the easiest of the 3 to win and we should not have lost that game
  14. it goes like this yeah, yeah you are good, you won a bunch of games...so how many losses do you have? well sir, all our losses were on the road, one was against the #1 team in the.... yeah fuck all that, just give me the number.
  15. Jimmy Sexton would absolutely love this to happen. It's like Christmas in December.
  16. I've been told that bad loss is most important metric this year....
  17. The only potential fall guy is Bama IMO since they would have 3 losses and the all important, new for this year! "bad loss". it would be fucking hilarious if it happened 2 years in a row to them, which is also why I don't see it happening. 1% chance Tech(with a loss to BYU), ND, OU could be a fall guy. problem is all of those are viewed as safely in due to their current ranking.
  18. oh sweet summer child have you opened a can....
  19. I'm sure we will keep those. It is the ND series that should be in question. we have ASU scheduled out a ways, probably portends the way CDC has been thinking.
  20. 23 we forced them to put us in beating Bama, 24 was no brainer, 25 easy peasy to leave us out, but we expose their bullshit.
  21. Monday hope after a big win over the weekend is always the best hope.
  22. be funny if it was OSU, Indiana, Tech and Georgia. SOS 37,56,69,18 if you go by Sagarin right now you get Notre Dame, OSU, Indiana, Oregon. no SEC or Big 12.
  23. I've been using Minnesota as an example. get those motherfuckers on the schedule ASAP!
  24. It is interesting that people thought this. after decades of seeing SOS's in the 30's to 40's be rewarded as long as you limited the loss column, watching SEC schedule D2 schools once a year, some even scheduling low/mid level G5 for the other 3 games, and still get rewarded with, get this, a "conf rematch National Championship game" it was obvious. A leopard doesn't change its spots. the OOC statement by the committee should have said "high profile OOC games will not be punished IF YOU HAVE SAME NUMBER OF LOSSES" they weasel worded something about like teams. We needed these games in 2 team and 4 team era when in the Big 12 after neb/aggy left. We don't need them now. hell the Big 12 doesn't even need them now. Lose early still exists also, see ND and Bama. The goal is to make the playoffs, just like the NCAA tournament in basketball, and to do that you limit the chances for any loss in a 12 game season. This is different than basketball and baseball. you can't have a 32 or 64 team playoff in football unless you eliminate OOC altogether. scheduling a 50/50 potential loss is kind of stupid to be honest.
