  1. Really wanted to see a "1" leading OSU's final score. Pulling the starters could lead to 3-and-outs and another OSU TD or 2. We need the score to look as dominant as the game has been.
  2. Exactly.
  3. Gotta say, Arch looked better than Murphy ever did. I know the sample size is limited, but still. I'd go Arch all day.
  4. Bullshit the ref was on the ball, but why didn't we call Timeout? Made the kick +5yds and gives OSU a nice little morale boost.
  5. Holy shit. This is the most cool, calm, and collected I've seen the guys play all year. We've seen various versions over the course of the season, but THIS team...THIS team looks downright dangerous.
  6. I'd bet the farm there is far more to this incident than "Von Miller assaulted a pregnant woman." First clue: She told police she is 6 weeks pregnant
  7. Bill Burr disagrees.
  8. "It's like wiping a marker."
  9. From left to right, they range from "Like" to "Prepare your anus" - with "Drool" to the right of "Fuck you". Forgive my assumption. (It was teed up for a little sarcastic trash talk with "only thing more predictable than Oregon being in with a win" sliding in the side door. Cheers.)
  10. About the only thing more predictable than Oregon being in the CFP with a win is Beau Vine following me around, "drooling" on every post. Reminds me of my 2 year old niece when she didn't have the vocabulary to express herself, so she just stomped around all angsty. Use your words, little buddy. Tell me what's wrong.
  11. I don't disagree with the rationale. I simply don't see them leaving the 1-loss SEC champ out of the playoff. A CFP without "2x Defending National Champion UGA" or the "1-loss team that knocked off the 2x Defending National Champion UGA to win the SECCG" ... which in this case is already "Nick Saban's Alabama"...? File it under "things that are probably not gonna happen" for whatever the reason. Obviously, that's a situation where I'll be thrilled to be proven wrong.
  12. I'm potentially going to win the lottery tonight.
  13. SEC Champ is in, whether UGA or Alabama PAC-12 Champ is in, whether Oregon or Washington If Texas gets in, it will be in the slot vacated by Big 10 or ACC with a Michigan or FSU loss. SEC Champ PAC-12 Champ ACC/Big 10 Champ Texas If BOTH FSU and Michigan lose, then that's where a 1-loss non conference champ UGA or Ohio State starts coming into play. Texas in one of those slots and UGA/OSU in the other. SEC Champ PAC-12 Champ Texas UGA or Ohio State
  14. Oregon for sure, and then Texas or Alabama. The models say that favors Texas, but if I was going to put money on it, I'd lay it on "Texas has the head-to-head, but Alabama just knocked off 2 x defending champ and 28 game win streak Georgia" with the addition of some "SEC this and SEC that" stuff. Oregon and Bama. We're out.
  15. Don't sharpshoot. You might look special to the people in the middle of the distribution, but not anyone else. Of course there's a "non-zero" chance, mathematically speaking. There's a non-zero chance I'll win the lottery tonight if I buy a single ticket. Is there an appreciable difference between 0 tickets and 1 ticket, other than going from zero to non-zero? Am I going to win the lottery? I get this is an opportunity to look smart and nerd out, but in practical terms, it's pretty easy to see how it's very likely to play out. But hey, if ya'll want to get dorky about it, have at it. But it would be nice to see all the people trying to flex their brains actually do the math and show their work (I suspect few actually can).
  16. Agreed, but you're going to get all kinds of pushback on this one. My opinion: Oregon is already ahead of Texas. Oregon beats #3 Washington to win their conference. Texas beats #18 Oklahoma State to win theirs. Thinking this results in Texas going in ahead of Oregon is absurd. There's a ton of pretzel logic, wish casting, and transitive relation application in this thread. It's rather amusing to see it prefaced with "you're a fucking idiot" and then closed out with "period/full stop." This is a great example of "choose your words carefully; you may have to eat them later." I think the better teams will win this weekend, but there's still potential for a lot of people making "zero chance, full stop" predictions and calling people stupid to have egg on their faces.
  17. No it doesn't. You're getting suckered into assuming a transitive relation between football games. If you go by your logic, Oklahoma's win would be the best of the season because they beat the team that beat the team that beat UGA. But then Oklahoma State's win over Oklahoma would be the best. If they beat Texas, then they'll have beaten the team that beat the team that beat UGA AND the team that beat the team that beat the team that beat UGA. Oklahoma State should be in the CFP.
  18. We're never going to make it to 60+ pages if you summarize it in 4 sentences like that. You can beef up your posts by calling someone a stupid fuck and/or pointing out that had we wouldn't be having this conversation had we simply beaten OU.
  19. If Texas beats OSU and Oregon beats #3 Washington, they're going to leave out Oregon...who is CURRENTLY ranked 2 spots ahead of Texas without the big win over #3 in play? I don't see that happening. You forgot to include the metric that apparently trumps all. The "but we're Texas" metric.
  20. No, no, no. There's two Os in "Goose", boys.
  21. "Vibes" "I feel like" Name-calling I think I may have accidentally walked into the Ladies' Room.
