I am not advocating chanting S-E-C, but it’s just stupid to continue the fight against the SEC bias now. That is so last year 

That's cool, I guess... I'm just saying don't be a sec homer/fanboi.

I mean all the recent ND faceplants are under Brian Kelly. His record in big games in the postseason is abysmal. Even Bilbo Aggins can laugh

Florida just got two wins in a row against LSU and Ole Miss…. They ain’t on there.

Faceplants have been a staple of the Freeman era as well

Should go back to a BCS style but updated algorithm that takes into account strength of schedule. 

The Big 10 and SEC champion get auto bid. The best ranked next 2 conference champions get the final 2 auto bids. 

Then go down the line starting at 1 to fill in the rest. 

That's the way it should be, but will never happen because CFB doesn't want to give away it's power to make matchups for TV ratings.

Yeah, Northern Illinois was I think the third time Freeman has lost at home as a 20+ point favorite, right? NIU this year then Marshall and one other in previous years I thought.

Maybe the loss against a 3-9 Stanford?

Kansas just beat a top 25 ranked team, 3 weeks in a row. 

Which proves what?

Anyone? 

Spoiler

That rankings don't mean shit, especially in a weak ass after conference

Or their OC finally figured out how to call a good game and their QB is healthy once again.

Rankings are a beauty pageant based on past performance not a predictive measurement, that would be a power rating like ESPN’s FPI

And/or 5 of their 6 losses were by a combined 19 points

But blowhards in the media and on the internet know they would beat ND, PSU, and Indiana?  Did you consider that?

Spoiler

They had even greater confidence they would beat vandy and ou.  Alas.

While I do think Bama would beat all 3 of those teams. Here is the problem. Bama has 3 fucking losses. Those teams have 1. The results on the field have to matter.

I completely agree. You will get no argument for me. Notre Dame is the most overrated team Thin CFB. At least overrated SEC teams win when they get to the playoff. Notre Dame just gets their breaks beaten off and then everyone forgets two days later and we are subjected to the same bullshit 1 year later. 

Then what is wrong with the rest of college football?  We haven't played a competitive game in over a month.

Yall got the breaks beat off of you by Northern Illinois and havent played anyone with a pulse since then. Join a real conference. Try winning a playoff game this year and not embarrassing yourself at home.

And Texas is the only team with a chance to get to 6 this week. Every CCG winner should get another. 

If Wisconsin beats Minnesota psu will have 6.

Before this last weekend we were the only team to have 8 wins over teams with a .500 or better record.

I’m not sure how that may have changed based on the results of this past weekend

I know I shouldn’t give a shit, we’re fine with the CFP, but it’s annoying me. Need to shut them all up over the next couple weeks.

The narrative switched. Before Georgia we were invincible, the best team in the country. Then we lost and so we're frauds. Plus for lots of people that was the only time they have watched us all year.

It didn't help that our offense looked like hammered dogshit the whole game. That shit was embarrassing. 

Lets stop a mudhole in aggy and get revenge in the SEC championship game.

I saw that and started to post it and then decided it was stupid and didn’t… but since it’s here:

1) there were only 6 other teams with a winning record in the SEC when that was posted. 
2) we don’t control our schedule

3) we don’t control the timing of our schedule (A&M obviously the 2nd team).

4) put Georgia and Missouri (and Miss St) on blast for scheduling UMASS.

 

but yeah, it is comical our sec opponents’ place in the standings is currently:

2

T-3

10

11

12

13

15

16

Yep, really tired of this narrative that we controlled who we played.

And again, we have so far beaten every team lower than us in the standings. If you lose to the teams currently at the bottom of the conference, maybe shut the fuck up. 

Our schedule based on preseason predicted finish by the conference coaches:

(1) Georgia
(8) OU
(9) aggy
(11) UK
(12) Florida
(14) arky
(15) MSST
(16) Vandy

avg: 10.75

OU ended up way worse, Vandy ended up better. Aggy too. 

Aggy's preseason schedule based on predicted finish by the conference coaches:

(2) Texas
(5) LSU
(6) Missouri
(10) Auburn
(12) Florida
(13) SoCar
(14) Arkansas
(15) MSST

avg: 9.625

Auburn ended up worse than predicted and aggy lost to both of them.   SoCar came out of nowhere to be a really good team.

Nope,  UGA is 6-2.  But the rest of your post stands.

Should have said we have beaten every team we were predicted to be above.  We didn't lose to teams predicted to finish near the bottom of the conference. 

If you go by our preseason schedule and how the coaches predicted it, we should have beaten everyone but Georgia.

It's just funny because the next couple of weeks Sark and the Horns can shut everyone in the SEC the fuck up bigtime. 

 

There's so much hate and slander we are catching it's wild, everyone is on our ass about everything. But their entire argument is moot if Quinn can get a little bit of mobility and elusiveness in the pocket and make some throws. If we play like we played against Michigan, we will beat the brakes off of aggy and probably beat Georgia too.

But actually we played with an injured QB and our OC insisted on using that game to practice his passing reps.  If everyone not named Oregon gets an excuse then we'll take it here.

'P4 winning teams'

'winning record in conference play'

 

Sounds like a roundabout way to point out that a conference goes .500 against itself.  It is necessary that one winning team or more will have played a weaker schedule.

prepare yourself.  They are going to get he 5 seed and be in the semi's because they will play the #12 at home and #11(or #14) at a neutral site

I just posted in the game week thread - aggy has a .525 home SEC record, despite only having to host Tennessee once and never Georgia.  They've gotten to feast on so many home games versus MSST, Auburn, FL, SoCar and occasionally Bama/LSU and still barely over .500 in the SEC at home

I’m not catching anything. You should learn to care less.  After caring less, realize you still care too much and basically do the opposite of what Derka would do.
