Quinn Ewers is Steve Harrington from Stranger Things. Great for fighting regular monsters. Not well suited for taking down the Big Bads.

I think you guys will be able to handle Clemson. I know that you're gonna be torn in the next round though lol!

Worst case scenario: I end up hating Clemson more than any other team ever.

I agree with Saban, will the sport be ruined if we don't get to see great OOC games like these?

I know that I will be pulling for SMU lol.

[KhalDrogo]

Poor Oregon getting the shaft. How do they get a tougher matchup in the second round than ASU?

You're changing my opinion of Bama fans here.

I promise to not let rats ruin it.

[cdub6238]

Regardless of whether you think SMU deserves to stay in...

It's absolutely hilarious to me watching Saban losing his mind whining and complaining over Bama not in when they lost to 1 mediocre team that UT handled...and a crappy Oklahoma team

[TheFrenzy]

Poll recap:

Miss - A former BigXII team will win the SEC
Hit - A former PAC12 team will win the B1G10
Hit - A former PAC12 team will win the BigXII
Miss - OSU and Michigan will play twice and both make the playoffs
Hit - Colorado and Deion will make a bowl game
Hit - The 12-team selection process will be smooth
Miss - The 12-team selection process will be marred by controversy
Pending - A G5 team will win a playoff game
Miss (maybe?) - The PAC2 (2PAC?) is going to be awesome
Pending - The oldheads will come around and acknowledge that cfb should have always had a full playoff

Yeah someone should probably check on Saban. He started talking about the Steelers losing to the Browns. lol

You think Tenn is tough?

[cdub6238]

Interesting..SMU/Penn St has 1 less day than the others to prepare for 2nd round

Also..opening lines..

Clemson/Texas -10.5
UT/OSU -7
IU/ND -8.5
SMU/Penn St -8

He's simply saying that it's not right to punish teams that play harder schedules. Yes Bama lost to Vandy, Tennessee and Oklahoma, but we also beat the #2 team in the nation now (Georgia).

SMU didn't have a single win against a Top 25 team.

I take it you're just talking out your ass like usual...

Top 5 NCAAF defense...Top 10 Rushing offense

No chance SMU comes within 3 scores

Hehe, you are setting yourself up for fun receipts. Careful with definitives, “no chance…”

Penn St not exactly known for being able to Win when the lights are bright.
AND if I see a 3 score line, I’m pounding SMU.

Neither would Bama. Its a wash.

[TheFrenzy]

Hairy's job of preserving at least a modicum of respect for the Michigan fanbase gets harder every day.

He had a good argument about SOS needing to matter earlier for rankings..

But where the hell else was the committee suppose to put a 1 loss SMU...whose loss came in week 3

Bama literally lost at 1 of the worst possible times, to an awful team

Also...SOS is fluctuating depending on W/L record..

Comparing these playoffs to the NFL is absolutely ridiculous lol

I was kinda confused about the NFL analogy too lmaooooo.

[therealcjc33]

I just wanna say this to everyone. I really appreciate how dedicated and die hard we are to our teams. Some of the "debates" get heated, but honestly it's so nice to see how much love we have for our teams.

You guys make this board fun!

Strength of schedule should not trump losing 2 games to 6-loss teams.

I'd say the blood is on Oklahoma's hands in this scenario

I agree. Either way it went today, people were gonna be upset. To be honest, I'm kinda relieved we didn't make it. We are way too inconsistent. At least now I don't have to worry about getting my heart broken lmao.
