Cincy might be outmatched in this game but you know what, according to the score, so was Georgia when they played Bama. The Bearcats still deserve to be here. Their 13-0 season earned them that right.

 

The no-rematch bullshit is just that, bullshit.

UGA should be the 4 seed as the non- conference champion participant. 

My opinion on this won't change regardless of the final outcome of this game.

I could not agree more and you, me and everybody knows why they split up the 2 SEC teams in the bracket.

college football has been badly damaged by the NFL draft and not too many good teams left to justify anything more than an 8 team playoff.  Even this year, 4 seems too many. 

nah, should be 8 or 16. 

then you've got the opportunity to let all conference champs in, have your sec bias, and throw in a couple of at large teams. it' s far more interesting than watching rutgers play wake in some shitass bowl.

with the opt outs and the portal and the draft, you have to make the games meaningful.

What message? That Bama needs to not be so good?

He is talking about expanding the playoffs to increase access to national playoff games to more schools which in theory will create some parity across the landscape. The idea is it lessens the magnetic draw of the top programs that continue to recruit the best recruits every year.

for the good of the game, kill the bowls, expand to 16, and break the cartel at the top

it's our only hope

What's this mean? If the top 4 teams yield mismatches in a playoff, it would be even more egregious in a 16 team playoff.

If people aren't tuning in to watch lower tier bowls, they're also not tuning in to see a Georgia demolish a BYU or a 3 loss Utah-type team just because they managed to win the Pac 12. 

Enjoy the game.

The two lowest rated championship games since 2005 are the Alabama-LSU rematch and Alabama-Clemson Part 3.

It actually does matter, just not enough. 

i'm still pissed about that alabama lsu rematch.

watch the klatt video

[Blotto 23427]

took cinci at a little better than 10-1 at halftime. Small entertainment wager. Probably would get more use of that $10 wiping my ass with it.

nonsense. people tune in to watch #1 seed duke blast the #66 seed sisters of the poor at 11am to start march madness.

if you build it, they will come.

[Woodrow Call 494]

Alabama will bring the heat soon. 

[Cairn Horn88 8164]

Saban is gonna have to call a time out because Cincy is moving the ball.   Don't want Saban to get flustered.

[Horn80 6075]

The way Cincy players wear their uniforms looks very French.

[Cairn Horn88 8164]

Don't kick that field goal...go for it.  It's your only chance.  Trust me.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Cincy has to go for this. 3 points does nothing. 

[BluTechsan 393]

And there's the white flag

[Sgt Hulk 13644]

Field goals ain’t gonna do it boys 

[Chad 1728]

Cincy ain't gonna win this game by kicking field goals.

[CurlyDumps 4439]

Field goals are for losers.

[hayden_horn 11360]

3rd down playcalling still shit

that 3rd down play should have been called on 2nd down. 

cinci needs to keep the ball in front of them. they are honestly getting killed by their coaches.

[Bigjohns97 125]

Field lols

[Sgt Hulk 13644]

If the defense can flex here And try to get another score 

[Vic Mackey 46932]

Only 4 more FG's!!!

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

an 8 team playoff accordng to the final CFP rankings

1.       Bama vs. 8. Ole Miss

2.       Michigan vs. 7. Baylor

3.       Georgia vs. 6. Ohio State

4.       Cincinatti vs. 5. Notre Dame (rematch would spark interest)

 not bad at all, I favor the 8, only 1 extra round from the current format.

[MonkeyDoughnut 10139]

The comparisons of Cincy vs SEC do they belong etc aren't what should be looked at. 

People need to look at games where Saban had 3 weeks to prepare for... That's a big, big difference.

[Francisco 2.0 32318]

I'll never understand returning a kick with today's rules when you have a lead.

 

[SimonBolivar 10911]

Ummm pushed him in the face way after that play.

Saban had a halftime talk with BoB about not running the ball I see.

i bet on the cincy moneyline, because fuck bama.

might as well throw money in the street, but whatever, a guy can hope.

I didn't look - what was the payout on the moneyline?

[Bigbend1812 12884]

[Fudbelty 2785]

Get a td here Bearcats

[Bevo&Pevo 5026]

Nice defensive stand by Cincy

[Cairn Horn88 8164]

So, Bama has no Covid issues, portal issues, just one opting out issue,.....but aggy can find 11 players? 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Bama's passing game is iffy with no Metchie. 

That will be a problem in the national title game.

since the Cincy girl has dominated the thread, do we agree with this map? Blue is best looking females, red is bad.  Bama #48?? NJ #1? 

I got a good chuckle.

Depends on who made the list. I don't like sleeve tats, so Cali is rough territory for me. NY/NJ is happy hunting if you're a fan of big glasses and big noses.

Give me Texas, Arizona, Hawaii, Florida, Colorado, and Louisiana at the top and the rest don't matter.

[hayden_horn 11360]

pretty big stop there for cinci. 

they can get pressure on the qb. that's why bama needs to keep running. 

 

[Surly Bevo 24695]

One thing for sure. The Irate 8 is gonna hate these Ohio dorks.

not enough.

on my book it was +385.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Jameson Williams is in the medical tent. Uh oh. 

[Horn80 6075]

Should be a penalty for players that gesture flag throwing motion.  I’m sick of seeing that shit.

I’m sure it’s been brought up on this site but I thought it was funny a school with their stupid fucking story about the 12th man couldn’t field a team.

Works in NCAA BB because the entire tourney is an event and there's nothing else like it this side of the FIFA World Cup.

If NCAA FB goes to that model, maybe. Otherwise, no. No one is watching those games.

why you returning kicks with one of your best players while running shit in this game?

Hurt on special teams...

If that's a serious injury for Williams they're in big trouble in the national title game.

Why the fuck would you put him on a punt team? Surely there's someone else that can cover a punt.
