NCAA FOOTBALL 2024 MEGA THREAD - WELCOME TO THE PLAYOFF ERA
Just 8 days until Florida State plays Georgia Tech!
A lot happened while you were away:
Texas and Oklahoma joined the SEC
The Pac-12 went out in a blaze of glory:
Oregon, Washington, USC and UCLA are headed to the B1G
Utah, Arizona, Arizona State and Colorado are headed to the B12
Cal and Stanford along with SMU are somehow headed to the ACC
Poor old Wazzu and Oregon State are now aligned with the MWC in some sort of in-flux relationship
The conferences are huge now, and the schedules are wildly imbalanced. Florida might have the hardest schedule in the history of the sport, while Missouri's playing a sun-belt slate.
FSU and Clemson play each other, but then play ZERO common ACC opponents
Utah/Baylor and Arizona/Kansas State play non-conference games against conference opponents
LSU and USC play in Vegas!
Boise goes to Oregon, a team they've never lost to!
Texas at Michigan!
Alabama at Wisconsin!
Notre Dame at ATM!
Clemson vs Georgia!
And there are some incredibly juicy new conference matchups:
Texas @ ATM is back!
Texas vs Georgia
Oregon vs Ohio State
USC @ Michigan
USC vs Penn State
And then the bizarre:
UCLA @ Rutgers is now a conference game
Syracuse plays home and away against Cal and Stanford for some reason
Half the teams have new coaches, transferred quarterbacks, or both!
Let's get it on!
Water cooler should have been flagged for targeting.
Booger: "But they are undefeated!! Put them in the playoff."
26 yards passing and 38 QB keepers in a showdown football game for Army. If they were in the SEC they would struggle not to be 0-8, and yet Booger has them in the playoff. Like Fla. State. Like BYU. Like TCU. What is wrong with people who think like that?
I might not listen to Finebaum on Monday, but you better believe I'll be looking up the highlights.
I would have guessed bama stayed ahead of Clemson but maybe not after getting smoked.
Good for the domers they seem locked in given that the committee already loved them.
What's Milroe's Heisman equity right now? I mean in Sklansky bucks. You feel me? 😉
I have zero confidence that Auburn can do anything here. And then there is the kicking.
Aurbun's playcalling is half-past wtf?
DeBoer leaving Washington is going to be like Farrah Fawcett leaving "Charlie's Angels," like Kirstie Alley leaving "Cheers," like that guy that left Microsoft, like that guy that left the Beatles, like that guy ?? You feel me?
Burnt Vegetables saved his job for another year
I feel like ATM just made a mistake of some kind.
Freeze better not be playing for a FG here
I have no words for what we just witnessed between A&M and Auburn
I wanna die
gg Oklahoma. Really hate the phantom-late cover-up call that took away a touchdown (and I mean really, really hate), but clearly the better team.
LOL Dooook, I guess.
Sister Walking is like "wow no one wants to win this game"
Auburn got jobbed on that call I mean cmon
What did Auburn *do* to these refs?
aTm paid off the refs I see. That OPI call is lol ridiculous.
Who looks ridiculous for taking +2.5 now?
Dear god Thorne is so bad. Throw that sooner and you win the game.
karma to Auburn in the end
Tennessee got too many upsets and may end up needing to beat Georgia to make the playoff?
Assuming they get in the title game over Texas when they tie
