2014-2015 College Football Discussion Thread

I won't have a problem if OSU gets in as the 4th team. If they win the title they have an argument. But like Smooth said, they haven't been impressive lately and that hurts. They need to really impress to jump people.

On a different note, Michigan should be embarrassed at how poor they are. 5-7? Pathetic. A soft and untalented team. I miss the days of big time backs, a huge OL and ramming it down their throats. Really disappointed in Hoke. Should be fired any time now. Will UM fans embrace a new approach or reject a Rich Rod type guy? A fickle fan base with an uncertain future.

Why do you keep mentioning Baylor? TCU is the team you would need to jump and they put a whopping on Texas in Austin. Baylor struggled with Tech. TCU has a gimmie at home against Iowa St. Baylor would have to beat Kansas St by 50+ to even have a chance and their SOS still kicks them in the ass. TCU also has that 30-7 win against Minnesota that does not hurt their resume against Ohio St.

Yep, Baylor doesn't matter at all. Ohio State has to hope TCU somehow faceplants against Iowa State, or that Arizona somehow knocks off Oregon for the second time this season. Those are Ohio State's only chances.

Also they jump in with Alabama losing to Missouri. Imagine a playoff with no SEC teams in it. What a wonderful world. Florida St could also get knocked off by those chop blockers at Ga Tech.

I was sticking to realistic chances of upsets next weekend. :D

Though Florida State too has played like crap lately, so it wouldn't be impossible that Georgia Tech would be Florida State.

As for the SEC, Missouri better just hope they stay within 30 of Alabama.

I like Georgia Tech's chances. Their team would take advantage of a slow FSU start.

Bama's QB hasn't been impressive away from home (versus his stats at home, at least). If he struggles early like vs Auburn, the Mizzou game could be interesting.

Why do I feel like Hoke lowkey has a real chance at keeping his job http://www.kanyetothe.com/forum/Smil...kanyelaugh.png

I will have a wonderful weekend, if Tech beats FSU and Mizz beats Alabama.

FSU #4 http://www.kanyetothe.com/forum/Smil...parrotdead.png

this is getting out of hand now http://www.kanyetothe.com/forum/Smileys/default/lol.gif

Lost faith in this playoff thing...give the Noles credit for not losing, fucking ridiculous

And Baylor gets no credit for beating TCU, like holy hell what

TCU beat kansas by 4 but that is never brought up http://www.kanyetothe.com/forum/Smil...kanyelaugh.png

I agree fully with your past 3 posts

Winning is still the key...regardless how bad or good it is. They can go undefeated and still will be 4th. Only thing going for them is they can't be taken out of the top 4.....can they?????

I don't see how they can. It's a serious indictment of the legitimacy and credibility of the college football playoff in it's very first year if an undefeated team from a power 5 conference gets left out. The little 5 will always get fucked, so had Marshall gone undefeated, it wouldn't have mattered. But if Florida State goes undefeated, the college football playoff loses ALL credibility if an undefeated, AND defending champion, power 5 team is left out behind four one loss teams.

Baylor only beat Texas Tech by 2 points and did so by stopping a two point conversion at the end of the game. If you are going to bring up one, you need to bring up the other. Both have one loss and TCU has the better OOC win. Baylor beat TCU (but it was in Waco and TCU pretty much owned the game for 3 quarters). Baylor has played certain teams better (OU for example which they slaughtered in Norman) than TCU and on the flip side TCU threw 82 points on Tech. It's why I think the power 5 conferences should all have a conference championship and an 8 team playoff. If Baylor beats KSU and does so convincingly they have a valid complaint about being left out. Their biggest complaint would be to the spineless Big 12 commissioner who just decided that with a tie they would have co-champions last week. As long as their is one or more teams in the race for the playoffs. A touch ironic after all those commercials claiming "One True Champion."

The best quote from the commish.

Only if TCU and Baylor are both left out of the top four would the league acknowledge Baylor's head-to-head win over TCU. By contract, displaced conference champions are guaranteed spots in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic, Vizio Fiesta Bowl and Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. Bowlsby said the league would then use Baylor's win over TCU to determine which team would play in a New Year's Six bowl.

---

FSU is in with a win against Ga Tech. Why are they #4? No clue. I think they should be #1 (as every returning champion should be at the beginning of each year) until they lose a game. The one bright spot is that unlike in the FCS playoffs they do not have to play on another teams home field due to it's ranking.

Four years in a row ASU is playing in the Mobile, AL GoDaddy Bowl. That said, this year is the most excited one assuming we can keep our coaching staff in place for the bowl.

UL Lafayette (New Orleans), South Alabama (Camellia), Arkansas State (Go Daddy) will receive Sun Belt bowl berths sources told @ESPN

2nd what B and Smooth said completely

I mean even if you don't consider them winning last year...they are still undefeated in 1 of the major conferences and is the only undefeated team left.

Yep. I could see them maybe, maybe being #2 behind Alabama, but to be fourth? I'm calling bullshit on that. This committee is going to destroy the credibility of this whole thing before the first playoff game even gets played.

If OSU wins, they will swap spots with TCU. Bookit

But who isn't out here asking to see boobies on snapchat?

I feel your struggle, Jameis.

Considering Ohio State has had weeks to jump TCU, and yet has now fallen two spots behind them (as opposed to just being one spot behind them last week). Hate to say it, but Ohio State is only getting in if someone loses in the top 4. If Alabama, Oregon, Florida State and TCU all win this weekend, Ohio State is gonna get left out.

If FSU struggles in first half Saturday I don't see them coming back against Tech tbh.

I think we lose this weekend anyway

Committee probally praying OSU & FSU/Oregon lose so they can slide both TCU & Baylor in there.

I do agree there. Florida State has had some tough comebacks lately, but most always against "lesser" teams. Georgia Tech is a damn good team and if Florida State falls in a hole (due to Winston playing like crap again), they are going to have a hard time trying to climb out against Tech.

I also agree that I don't see Ohio State winning this weekend. People have been saying Jones is a talented QB, but he is indeed getting thrown to the wolves this weekend, having to come out and start against a very tough Wisconsin on the huge stage of the Big Ten Championship game. Between trying to get Jones fully up to speed as a starting QB in only a week's time, and the defense having to find some way to shut down Gordon, I'm going with Wisconsin to win this weekend. It won't be a blowout, in fact I think it'll still be a damn good game and a close game, but I think Wisconsin will ultimately win by 10 or 14 points.

Rumors are all across Razorback message boards that Braxton Miller will transfer to Arkansas.

Same with the LB who led UAB in tackles past 2 years. http://www.kanyetothe.com/forum/Smil...kanyelaugh.png

:fp: Yes the committee really wants TCU and Balylor. I mean who wouldn't want these two yearly powerhouses playing in the first NCAA Tournament. The Disciples of Christ versus the Baptist. That is like saying the NFL wants Arizona and Cincinnati to make the Super Bowl or the NBA wants Toronto and Memphis in the finals.

Ohio State is not going to pass TCU if TCU wins. You can say it a hundred times, followed by you saying the OSU won't beat Wiscy and it will not matter. TCU just jumped FSU for cripes sake.

They'd much rather have both go than have to pick one

They have already picked one, TCU. Baylor is on the outside looking in. Pretty simple math here, you win and you are in.

I think the top 4 all win. Baylor wins in a close game with KSU. Ohio St Wiscy is a coin toss, could go either way.

If all the top teams win:

1. Bama
2. Oregon
3. Ohio State
4. FSU
5. Baylor
6. TCU

Really what I think happens.

ESPN wants FSU vs Bama for the ratings.

It won't be because it makes sense football wise.

Not a chance. If everyone wins, how in the world does TCU plummet from 3rd to 6th? Baylor can campaign all they want, short of a TCU loss, Baylor is not overtaking TCU. Ohio State's only chance is one of the four ahead of them losing. Alabama, TCU, Oregon and Florida State are all locks for the playoff if they win their games this weekend.

I think OSU has a chance to jump tcu if they are impressive.
