    Theres no difference between saving a hard game for later in the year or playing it in the first two weeks.

    Sure there is. Cupcakes later in the season lightens the effects of attrition.

    Yeah big difference. Playing FCS teams in mid-November is ridiculous. It is a complete disservice to fans, and other teams across the country. They continue to let the SEC get away with a glorified bye week at the end of the season.

    The Cupcake should be an easy win. Everyone plays them, if you want one before rivarly week schedule a real game in September. Michigan and OSU have Maryland and Minnesota this week, both should be cupcakes if Michigan and OSU are really 2 and 3 in the country anyways. Maryland has won 1 game since september against an awful Nebraska team and Minnesota is just bad.

    Besides this current committee has shown that they dont care when you lose. They put in OSU last year who lost its final game of the regular season and TCU who lost its conference championship

    Its likely that more is coming towards them from the NCAA, it just wont happen this year. Now if they lose to OSU or fall out of the playoff picture something might happen this year, but the NCAA likely has no intentions of doing anything as long as they are a playoff team. Dont forget that they still have the investigation for Harbaugh lying to them over and over open. The lying to them is what really pissed them off turning a slap on the wrist infraction into a big deal and causing them to look into other things

    Harbaugh and Michigan act like they’re untouchable and they can buy their way out of anything.

    Meanwhile, we’re getting a taste of how “good” Penn State is this weekend.

    you guys are funny with these transitive property arguments that last all season long

    here's a very linear idea:

    win all of your games, regardless of who is on your schedule. that will assure that you.....

    make the playoffs

    once you're there, win every game until there are no more left to play

    at that point, there is absolutely nothing that anyone else can say to you. you may then proceed to tell them to suck it as often as your little heart desires

    you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet

    Talking about playing football games - Maryland is making a game of it against Michigan - only down 23-17 , 3rd

    Last time I checked Maryland isn't a FCS team. So Michigan didn't get a bye week unlike all these sec teams this week. Go TERPS.

    24-10 actually. For some reason all the score apps where showing it was half time when there was still 8 seconds left and both teams took a timeout with Tennessee in FG range

    Hopefully they have a decent backup. Same thing happened to Ohio State in 2014, but still won the natty with a 3rd string QB.

    FSU and FL will both be playing without their starting QBs next week. That Travis injury probably cost the ACC their shot at a playoff spot. A lot of the committee members had been inching Washington closer and closer to FSU in the voting. With how they have been voting that injury will probably be enough to jump Washington to 4 and drop FSU to 5

    Lol just in time for Thanksgiving too. Freeze has one more year to get them back on track or their boosters will start making up rumors of affairs with students to get him fired like they did with the last one if its still like this in week three. LSU lost to Troy in 2017 and 2 years later had the greatest offense in college football history winning an undefeated national championship so theres really no excuse if he cant turn it around

    I have no doubt Auburn couldnt have cared less about that game and spent all week looking ahead to Bama. Freeze himself said guys werent trying and basically admitted they didnt even want to play that game. Only thing thing Auburn can do to salvage the season at all at this point is beat Bama

    Of course a Bama fan hates Auburn more than anyone else and vice versa lol. Pretty much all the SEC teams hate each other besides Vandy, theyre just happy to be there/ Baseball is the only major sport they deserve to be there for

    Combination of red-shirting, injury year, and everyone playing in 2020 got an extra year if they wanted it. Youd be surprised how common it is for a 6th year, but after that it gets absurd. A TE at Miami is currently trying to get approved for a 9th year of eligibility. He would be the first to get a 9th year, but two players before have gotten an 8th year.

    I think Stetson Bennett played college until he was 25. Ohio State is lucky if they get two years out of their Quarterbacks.

    Stetson Bennett was an average college QB. He started 2 years at Georgia. He started out as a walk on at Georgia, left to play Juco when he wasnt going to play at all and came back and got to play because of injuries. If Daniels stayed healthy Bennett never sees the field

    I was filling my truck up with gas yesterday when a car pulled up. The driver rolled down his window and ask me how to get to I-65 North. I told him and then ask where he was headed. He said he was going to Columbus Ohio, home of the Buckeyes.

    I said, well, that's easy.
    Take 1-65 North until you smell it, the go East on 1-70 until you step in it...... B)
