  1. Has anyone 995ish summarized the thoughts on what we are looking for and numbers from the portal? I've heard allusions to LB, S, ED, WR, OL. 4-6 guys?

    Fuck Big 12 refs

    Okay. So the NCAA issued some clarification on this (for the Ole Miss play at least). Replay and non-replay games work by different rules. What I said is true of the field crew without replay. What Huck said is true of replay. And field crews with replay should let plays continue when it's not clear. The Ole Miss call on the field was actually a backwards pass with an inadvertent whistle killing the play. The Line Judge (camera sideline) called it backwards, but the Head Linesman (far sideline) blew it dead thinking it was forward. Line Judge, who is the official with primary responsiblity for this type of call, presumably won in the discussion. So the booth didn't change the ruling to a fumble, but they did rule that there was clear recovery. This is still really bizarre to me. There's two players closer to the ball who stopped playing after the whistle and it isn't like a bang-bang recovery where the whistle blew right as the ball was being recovered. Isn't the entire point of the whistle to be an absolute end to a play? If the booth can actually overturn a whistle, this is going to encourage post-whistle play and the injuries and fights that follow.
  3. The committee is way better than the BCS system was. I'd be fine with reintroducing a computer component, but the media/coaches polls were downright trash.
  4. So .. Wichita Falls?
  5. Rooting for less football seems weird. I do wish they'd restructure the bowl tie-ins to create more competitive and rare matchups.
  6. A lot of the CCGs going forward will have scenarios where both teams are playing for a playoff bye. Which is a great thing, imo. Gives more reason to chase the 1 and 2 seeds also, because the 5th and 6th seeds might be monster teams that got upset in their CCGs.
  7. I was responding to the scenario if TCU and USC both lose. I think the scenario would be Mich, UGA, OSU, TCU over 2-loss Bama.
  8. Or TCU hangs on to #4.
  9. Yeah. The defensive process should have looked like: Best DL = Tyree Wilson Best LB = Jaylon Ford Best DB = Josh Newton Argue over which one of those. --- Duggan is at least the best QB, but the best WR and RB are in the discussion for best nationally.
  10. Duggan won't even be an honorable mention and both Bijan and Hutchison are potential 1st team. Uzomah isn't even the best DE in the conference.
  11. Yeah. I might have flipped that around in my head.
  12. A,E,D,B,C/F Spoiler their names.
  13. TCU has the #1 SOR, so they've done more than any other team being discussed.
  14. So do we put Purdue in? Head-to-head means something more than any other single game, but I'd rather have the team in that had the better overall season, not base it on a single game.
  15. He clearly knows his elevations at least.
  16. This is correct. My thinking was the title game. It's a $2MM bonus for the FF, less ~$1MM for having an extra team in a low bowl. So it is worth more or less $100k to UT itself ($1M to the conference.)
  17. CFP payout only increases by the expenses of the game itself. So it is virtually the same regardless of if TCU is in or not. It's actually a net loss because it's one less bowl payout.
  18. Ohio State has a better schedule than both even after you factor in the 13th game for each (both of which should be easy wins). There is an argument to be made for 1-loss Michigan and head-to-head mattering. There is also an argument to be made that Michigan played no one non-con (OSU played ND), and lost to a pretty bad Purdue. UGA's schedule isn't any better. Oregon doesn't make up for how bad their in-conference slate is. But sure, SEC! SEC!
  19. I don't think any of the top 4 can afford a loss. tOSU should feel good about their chances, imo.
  20. My first thought on the position change post was Liebrock or Juan to edge.
  21. I'm not sure if I'm surprised or not surprised that a TE hasn't announced yet.
  22. For people like me: Troy Omeire - wish him luck, couldn't get over the injury bug. Prince Dorbah - I'm not sure whether Dorbah or Burke logged more snaps this year, which isn't a good sign for him. JD Coffey - Jerrin Thomson practically never came off the field. I guess this is the safety we are losing to make room for ??? Andrej Karic - loved this name as a recruit but he wasn't ever good. It's fitting his last play was a strip-sack TD. Jamier Johnson - started the year as the #3 or 4 corner. It was obvious when he was on the field - in a bad way. I think he can turn into a good player, but he's below guys younger than him now. Hudson Card - not shocking at all. He looked a lot improved this season. I wish him luck. DJ Harris - Kind of surprising in the sense that he has a lot of football left to play. Dropping two edges means we are confident about getting someone from the portal?
  23. Yeah yeah. I looked at the last two pages and didn't see it. I'm apparently 4 pages behind.
  24. Fuck this thing is moving fast.
