NCAA FOOTBALL 2024 MEGA THREAD - WELCOME TO THE PLAYOFF ERA

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!

This one isn’t too bad.

What I remember:
Noon-Hall of Fame, Gator, and Citrus
Late Afternoon-Rose, Fiesta, Cotton
Night-Orange, Sugar

Had to flip around but it was GLORIOUS.

Yeah I was hyped to start the morning, but yet another blowout in the making here makes it sad there's nothing else to even flip to.


Playoff terrible


Sugar Bowl postponed


Man you guys give up quick. It was 2 big opening scripted plays and a punt return td.


A stop? There’s hope.



Non-penalty ASU first down.


Why are we snapping it? Come on


Is Dillingham old enough to purchase beer legally?

And this!


Jesse Palmer still has that amazing ability to see things that didn't actually happen. "All he could do was try to tackle the receiver" when really the WR put on the breaks for the underthrown ball and he just ran into him.

People disagreed with me but I think the powers that be massively overreact to small sample size outscomes

if Oregon, ASU and Boise won, I think the odds they change it from top-4 conf champs byes to top-4 seeds get byes swing massively. Maybe 30-40 percentage point swing on their decision based on the outcome of three games


It's 4th and 10, just chuck it up you moron.


This game is just a colossal mismatch in the trenches

It's 4th and 10, just chuck it up you moron.

I'd say the moron is 4 straight pass plays with Skat right there and heating up.

Sugar Bowl postponed

I’m seeing it’s delayed til tomorrow same time and I’m also seeing Thamel say there’s no official date for it to be played. So which is it?

Trickeration!
