Also if they put two big ten teams in I expect a formal letter of apology from any big ten fans who were mad about Bama/LSU NCG

so apparently steve sarkisian's alabama salary is 35 grand. So yeah no way he doesn't expect to be OC next year cuz Jesus Christ that's a dropoff (although the way coaches sometimes waste their money he may need it just to get by).

is there some sort of sobriety clause built into his contract? Sark was the most underwhelming coach UW ever had and I include Ty Willingham in that estimation since he was outright awful

I was mad about that mostly because the game was extremely boring

I wish Penn State had figured out how to be good in the second half against Pitt. They came close but then there was an interception.

I also wish they'd figured out the aggressive play calling against Michigan instead of kicking a field goal down 28-0 because apparently you can spot psu -21 points and they give no fucks

Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space
Committee said conference championships matter. They also said strength of schedule matters. tOSU scheduled top 10 Oklahoma and beat them by 21, away at night. Then top 10 Wisconsin, away at night. Then #3 Michigan.

So the resume is easily good enough to make it in. But what about the conference championship? They would have made it in, if Michigan did not lose to Iowa. It would have been a three-way tie for first in the division, which OSU would have won, and gone in over Penn State.

So it's kinda weird to think that you're arguing tOSU has the resume but doesn't deserve to go because Michigan lost to Iowa.

It's cool and logically sound if you think one should have to be a conference champion. I don't think any of the teams in consideration deserve to be left out. Just saying have a little sense of scale with how (not) simple this is.

He's made lots of money and was pretty toxic after the way his USC tenure ended. Working for Saban in some capacity is also a good way to rehab your image and convince lots of idiots that you are a good coach regardless of any evidence to the contrary. He has SEC EXPERIENCE now so he can probably be head coach at Kentucky or something in a couple years

poor syntax; what I'd meant to say was that Willingham was simply awful whereas Sark was more disappointing.

What is this loving nonsense about it mattering whether a game was at night or not?

Remember when Hawaii opened their season on another continent, then had to travel all the way to the Bug House 10 time zones away the very next week?

ESPN desperately wants that bracket, but they aren't getting it, so they're trying to talk everyone into a Bama/Clemson/OSU/Penn State bracket

Emron my wife and I were in Thailand a few weeks ago and trying to explain to her that I wanted to buy an elephant shaped piece of pottery because it reminded me of a poster's custom title of a Bama colored elephant fellating itself was an interesting conversation.

Week 1: Alabama, Ohio State, Florida State, Stanford
Week 2: Alabama, Ohio State, Florida State, Stanford
Week 3: Alabama, Ohio State, Louisville, Stanford
Week 4: Alabama, Ohio State, Louisville, Stanford
Week 5: Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson, Washington
Week 6 Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson, Washington
Week 7: Alabama, Michigan, Clemson, Washington
Week 8: Alabama, Michigan, Clemson, Washington
Week 9: Alabama, Michigan, Clemson, Washington
Week 10: Alabama, Michigan, Clemson, Washington
Week 11: Alabama, Clemson, Washington, Wisconsin
Week 12: Alabama, Clemson, Colorado, Wisconsin
Week 13: Alabama, Clemson, Washington, Wisconsin


I think if Clemson or Washington lose the committee might piss off everyone but Ohio State fans and ESPN execs and put Ohio State in, since Colorado has a loss to Michigan, Oklahoma has a loss to Ohio State, the committee is considering Oklahoma State to be a 2 loss team, and VT is a three loss team.. But if Washington wins and they are left out the committee is basically pulling a huge gently caress you to multiple conferences and decreasing the importance of the regular season. Plus it would mean the second time in three years that they've gone out of their way to include Ohio State when Ohio State shouldn't be in.

Week 14: Alabama, Clemson, Penn State, Washington

They're totally going to put in Ohio State, but I refuse to acknowledge that.
