Nevermind. Read something about one Georgia lineman out, bad day vs gtech against the run. Sure.... Since we are clueless we go parlay. Gimmie... Georgia ML and Oregon -3.5. This probably confirms a Texas win.Oops I just posted this and saw articKnight respsonded. Thx man, put my bet in tho. Small bet, Used to losing, here we go. It was the physical dline against texas,

I'll add; Since that game Georgia has looked good once and legit bad 3 times (No one's quite sure why). Texas has looked good twice and been ~a little underwhelming~ 3 times. Power-ratings-wise, that's how they went from Texas -4.5 at home to Texas -3 on a "neutral" Atlanta field.

Not sure that will matter against the physical domination we saw the first time (and maybe Beck not throwing 3 picks).


It is just so absolutely utterly indefensible for Boise to be ahead of ASU

Just so, so, so stupid

Hopefully the committee acts like adults and admits their mistake and slides ASU ahead of them in the final rankings

It would be ridiculous given their prior rankings, but way less ridiculous than giving Boise the bye over ASU


Herbstreit went a little heavy on the bronzer today


Is there a scenario that bama is left out of the playoffs? Or is it assumed they are gonna be in regardless what happens tonight

Clemson wins close enough SMU doesn't drop far, maybe.


Running it once in seven plays against a team that's been getting gouged on the ground the last couple of games is one way to do it.

Nah. A loss to Clemson is worse than a loss to Vandy


Got the game on antenna and Skycam. It's amazing how similar the "Marines" commercial is to the "Marshals" one, like I lost track of where the sound was coming from. You become a Marshall's shopper!


"Texas has done a good job protecting"

3 sacks in 3 possessions, but sure. Good except when it wasn't.

Question. Does the B12 vs MWC debate change depending on whether Arizona State wins or Iowa State wins?I was wondering if, for example, a blowout Arizona State win might bump the B12 ahead of Boise, but a blowout Iowa State win may not? Or, considering that Boise St has one loss by 4 points on the road at Oregon, and the committee has Boise St 5 and 6 spots ahead in the ranking

It seems a bit late to be asking this, but does the PC distinguish between Ranking and Seeding?

FG down 35 from the 5 is something

O/U?

O/U?

After the 4 conference champs, seeding is in the order of ranking.

if SMU wins, SMU and Bama are in

If SMU loses, Clemson is in and there's one spot left for SMU or Bama

Sportsbooks are pricing it 50/50 who will get left out

No, supposedly they just rank them and then whatever the seeds end up being they end up being

Although obviously in the real world, they are very aware of what the implications of each seed line are


I like the wasting time returning the pick


Texas burning all the time, but the announcers haven't noticed or said anything


let's describe all the stupid things that just happened

Herbstreit went a little heavy on the bronzer today

Kirk Herbstreit, like many TV personalities, uses makeup, including bronzer, to enhance his appearance on camera. The bright studio lights can wash out a person's complexion, and bronzer helps add color and definition to his face. It’s a common practice among broadcasters to ensure they look polished and presentable on screen. Plus, it can help create a more vibrant and energetic look, which is important in sports broadcasting.


Is the Texas head coach wearing yoga pants


Beck hurt. UGA no longer CFP eligible per the "FSU Rule"


If Beck hurt then both bama and smu can make it


Let's check in on the halftime interviews:

Sark: Refs are bullshit.

Kirby: It's my dumb QB's own fault that he got injured.

Ok then, back to you Kirk!

LOL perfect


At this point, could their backup be much worse?


Saban sounding like his teleprompter broke or something
