  1. Not possible. If Michigan finishes with two losses then they must have beaten Ohio State and knocked the Buckeyes out of the conference championship game. H-H tiebreakers are SC > UM > OSU. likewise if Trojans are 10-2 then they beat the Ducks, so SC is in the ccg against IU.
  2. It's also a fiction to equate 9 games in the SEC with 9 other games in the SEC. As of now Texas A&M has played five conference teams with a losing record. (Best conf opps have been Missouri and LSU). Add Sanford UTSA and Utah State. They are lucky we have rebounded or they would be heading into the Texas bowl having played nobody yet of course locked up a berth in the conference championship game. The big two conferences have only themselves to blame if that's a problem. They poached the best teams from the other conferences. They bloated the playoffs so there 10-2 teams could have extra Mulligans. So I don't want to hear from an engineer that hates his own system.
  3. Yet, our computer ranking is higher than the CFP placed us, and above Oregon. None.
  4. 24 team playoff! The explanation is that a lot of those win percentage graphs are crude. The only way you could be that big an underdog at 14-10 is it you were averaging one yard per play but somehow scored 10 points off unforced fumbles.
  5. Did that make the nightly news at the time? If that happened today, toy sword or not, the social media blitz would force the local authorities to arrest the royal guardsman or whatever he is. SCe got serious a generation ago hiring Holtz & Spurier. It takes more than serious in that spot though; #2 in a state without a huge talent base, lots of nearby competitors.
  6. Who is the SEC's best win, besides others from the SEC? Is that team any good? Do they deserve to be in the CFP? If that team was the best win of the entire conference then is the conference really proven?
  7. Which posed more danger?
  8. Pitt/USC/Navy. Of the three I would guess that two will finish near the top of their conf.
  9. Yes that's how it works
  10. In HS they said the 'only right way' was to fall so your body blocks anyone else from recovering. A LOT of players bend at the waist and try to scoop it.
  11. These F'ups usually take place on the road. Even Saban dropped one to Spurrier. This was a home game for A&M.
  12. The computers have ND's schedule now about 15th. IT will surely end in the top 25.
  13. No this year is unusually polarized. The only top vs bottom upset I can think of is your loss to UF. Or it would have been unusual before. Maybe NIL has destroyed the annual #1 Southern Cal @ unranked Oregon State WTF!? tradition.
  14. That's the story of your new conference. Your great wins are all against yourself.
  15. 76 total yards in 2nd half !?
  16. Navy is our good win. Nebraska's last min win over Cincy in week 1 was about to turn into a good win. Now it is just a win.
  17. NW appears to have choked it. But if their first down at midfield at the 4 min mark was not stolen by the flag then they are probably winning.
  18. Narduzzi calls a timeout with 5 seconds left down 37-9.
  19. Bailed by a flag on NW's first down run.
  20. It matters because Miami's 2nd best win is USF (lol, not FSU, UF).
  21. Isn't there a thread for SCe-A&M?
  22. In the game no one is watching, Pitt gets a td finally with a 6 yard Pick-6. ND casually runs back the 2PC attempt for our own 2 points.
  23. and when Bama gets destroyed by barely bowl eligible FSU it's because, well I'll get back to you. Alhtough I likely won't
  24. Two scores down with 4 min left. LEt's see how many plays that LSU runs for <10 yards. So far they are 3 for 3 in their first minute.
  25. Or catch, or run, or snap the ball on time... This would be perfect day just keeps getting the ball dropped.
