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!
Ohio State is scary when they decide to show up and play.
So Michigan just woke a sleeping giant in Ohio State didn't they?
suboptimal opening momentum shift
They are really going to punt here down two TDS?
I hereby express annoyance that they couldn't just wait to start the Rose Bowl *after* the game of the year.
many ppl who make a biz at such a thing say that Jeremiah Smith would be the slam dunk #1 pick of the 2025 draft
Day has his group playing w their hair on fire
good way to save his job
Jeremiah Smith turned 19 just five weeks ago.
I don't think he's eligible for the 2025 NFL draft.
oregon getting duck slapped
Someone brought roasted duck to the tailgate.
Ho Lee ***
Oregon sucks balls rn
lol everyone watching said "too easy" including the announcer
So the Ducks are frauds I guess.
too bad that Ryan Day will be back to lose to Michigan next year
undefeated Oregon you say
Ohio State is a warm weather and dome team. They shrivel in the cold but are juggernauts in this weather.
At least we got one good game.
Oregon got boned but they look like **** so whatever.
loooooooooooooooool this is fun
