RIPPA Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 Another new week. Another firing South Florida has fired Jeff Scott (they also have fired Bob Shoop who was DC) Scott's record was... checks notes... 4-26
JLowe Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 UT-TCU with Big 12 championship implications and I’m going to be at a conference in fng Arkansas.
Brian Fowler Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 So I'm assuming the top three Tuesday will be Georgia, Ohio, Michigan, most likely in that order. I'm really curious who fourth is. TCU? Tennessee? Oregon?
Dewar Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 Oregon won't be ahead of Tennessee. #4 is probably Tennessee, with TCU and Oregon 5 and 6.
EVA Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) Yeah, 4 is Tennessee. If the committee saw Bama’s resume as better than TCU’s last week, then Tennessee’s is definitely going to look better than TCU’s, head to head. Two Top 10 wins for Tennessee vs. just one Top 25 win for TCU. The Frogs have also not helped themselves by struggling to win most of their games. And they’ve been indirectly hurt by no one else in the Big 12 emerging as a contender, which has sapped the juice out of those early “big” wins over Oklahoma and OK State. I think TCU needs a lot of help to get to the playoffs. Even undefeated, I don’t know that they would be valued over 1-loss Tennessee or 1-loss loser of the Big Game. And they have another big problem on the horizon: the PAC-12 has 4 teams clustered just beneath TCU, and they’re all going to start playing each other this weekend. Oregon, USC, and UCLA have the opportunity to string together two huge wins down the stretch, which would likely catapult them over TCU. The Frogs really need those teams to cannibalize each other.

EVA Posted November 9, 2022 Posted November 9, 2022 Don’t see the logic of Frogs over Tennessee after how they rated TCU last week, but certainly not arsed enough to care. Frogs will have a chance to prove they’re worthy at Tejas this week.
Mister TV Posted November 9, 2022 Posted November 9, 2022 For anyone like me who’s terrified to watch any of the election results, ESPNU is playing Rutgers vs. Ball State in the 2008 International Bowl. Is there any reason for them playing it? Or did some Rutgers alum take over the control room?

It was during the really good stretch they had under Schiano, but I don't know any real reason that game would be considered a classic or anything.

It’s not even a close game, Rutgers won 52-30. I can see the B1G Network putting it on to throw Rutgers a bone since they don’t have many classic games, but it’s so random for ESPNU.

EVA Posted November 10, 2022 Posted November 10, 2022 I was wondering why Coastal Carolina was only -5 at home vs. Southern Miss.
Mister TV Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 Pitt with TWO pick 6’s on UVA’s first two plays from scrimmage! The Panthers are up by 14 only 16 seconds into the game.
hammerva Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Have no idea how Oklahoma is 5-3. This offense is really bad. Oh wait they are 5-4. Makes more sense Also either JT Daniels is hurt and nobody is telling anyone or he was exactly what people said he was. He has been awful in the last 3 weeks Like worse than Jarrett Doege bad Edited November 12, 2022 by hammerva
EVA Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 Very strange to be settling in for football on November 12th with the knowledge that Alabama is very likely going to have their third loss of the season by the end of it. You can tell from all of Kiffin’s media engagement this week that he knows (or at least thinks) he has Saban where he wants him, at last. Can’t wait to see what changes Saban makes this offseason.
DEAN Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 So Liberty beats Arkansas last week and loses to UConn this week. They are still the best team in Virginia. By a lot.
Elsalvajeloco Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 Ole Miss got gifted a TD because Jaxson Dart was almost decapitated on a facemask.
Kevin Wilson Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 If you are going to get a facemask penalty, at least get your money's worth. 1
Brian Fowler Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 Man, if he had decided to run a second earlier than he did, there was a huge hole on that fourth down. It just closed real quick.
Brian Fowler Posted November 12, 2022 Posted November 12, 2022 Also, important gambling news in Ann Arbor. Michigan's field goal run 1:17 left puts them up 31 in a game where they are 30.5 favorites. 1
