Didn't get a chance to say it before now, but "Go 'Guins".




Funny how a multiple game playoff system works. YSU is now going to be playing for another 1-AA (fuck you, it's still one-double-A to me) championship for the first time since Tressel took left town to take a head coaching job for SOME SCHOOL down in Columbus.

Was thinking today with these early bowl games really not meaning anything what if they created a NIT like tournament for college football? Could be for the Group of 5 schools that really have no chance at making it to the College Football Playoff.

Make it 8 teams with the 5 GO5 champions and 3 at large spots. So this year it would look somthing like this because Sunbelt had Co Champions only 2 at large spots available:

1 Western Michigan 13-0 MAC Champion vs 8 Arkansas State 7-5 Sunbelt Co Champion

2 Temple 10-3 AAC Champion vs 7 Appalachian State 9-3 Sunbelt Co Champion

3 Western Kentucky 10-3 CUSA Champion vs 6 Boise State 10-2 MW

4 San Deigo State 10-3 MW Champion vs 5 South Florida 10-2 AAC East runner up

All games are at the higher seeds home field then have the Championship game on New Years Day at a neutral site. Feel like it would give the smaller schools something more to play for and make winning their conference mean more as well.

This year, there was a clear difference between the top 2 and the next 2.

Alabama ate Washington alive, which is to be expected. Just superior talent and superior coaching. And Clemson blackened the Buckeyes.

Curious to see if Watson redeems himself this year. They made it a game last year, but ultimately came up short. Problem is, I don't think this year's team is as good as last year's.

Kinda torn on Randy Edsall being back at UConn. The way he left the last time was so shitty. Many expected him to leave for Maryland but to leave in the middle of the night without telling his players while they were on the other side of the country after getting beaten down in the Fiesta Bowl was so lame. He did apologize for it a bunch in his presser, but still.

Then again, it's UConn. It's not like hot coaching prospects are knocking at their door. Their record will probably be bad for a few more years but maybe he can find another guy like Jordan Todman to at least make the offense watchable. Diaco's offense was worse than watching paint dry.

What a difference a year makes.

Much like last year, too many Ohio State mistakes.

Unlike last year, they pulled out a win. One they shouldn't have had to fight so damn hard to get. It was a good game in hindsight. A classic. But damn, it needed to be a decisive trouncing at home.

If Barrett can focus like he did in the clutch Saturday ALL OF THE TIME, he is one hell of a Quarterback.

Of course, now, if there are no more losses, there is still The Game. And presumably a B1G Ten Championship showdown with Wisconsin who seem to have the East locked up already.

All I care about is seeing Clemson make it into the Playoffs, I'm feeling a little uneasy with the ACC Championship game against the U however.

Georgia could still make it. Beating Bama in the SEC championship would go a long way.

If Bama gets to the championship game. If Auburn beats them this week, which I now think is a very real possibility, then we would play Auburn again.

As long as it isn't a better bowl than Northwestern. Because Northwestern is better.

I still ideally would like to see a 16 team playoff.

You can still have some New Year's tradition in bowl games. Keep doing the Rose Bowl and Fiesta Bowl and Car-Quest bowl and all that shit for the bottom half of the top 25 and honorable mentions, but 1-16 should be in a tourney. That would end any meaningful "argument" about someone being snubbed or jumped or undefeated but still left out in the cold. You'll have all your power teams, conference champs, and room for a Cinderella or two in the form of your Boise States, TCUs, and Northwesterns when they're actually "on" instead of just trying to unilaterally hand the crown to Alabama every year.

It would also put less emphasis on that "when" you lose bullshit, where if you lose early, you can still come back, but if you lose late, fuck you. Most of those would still be in. It would give a two loss team something to possibly still play for (or sometimes even a single loss team) and still make the playoffs instead of just giving up or playing spoiler.

"Oh, but they need to stay in school..." bullshit. The National Champs will have played a grand total of two more games than they do now. Meanwhile, basketball is gearing up, and those fuckers miss school to go play halfway across the state or country every other day between Thanksgiving and March Madness.

"How will the corporate sponsors make money..." have an individual sponsor represent the goddamn playoff games like any other bowl game.

I think 16 is a bit to many but I'd like to see an 8 team playoff and maybe a NIT like playoffs for smaller schools at the beginning of bowl season. Alot of those early bowl games just feel so meaningless.

I'm good with 4 vs what was 2, but I think 8 is a good number. 8 means legit contenders and you won't have shit like an undefeated big ten team or one loss SEC teams on the bubble like you do now. 16 means Northwestern has a shot though, so 16.

Exactly, Louisville will probably go to the Belk Bowl or Russle Athletics Bowl again. Actually went to the Music City Bowl a couple of years ago when Louisville beat Texas A&M in Jackson's freshman year. Was fun to go watch but didn't seem like A&M were playing for much.

I would hate anything more than 8.

I'm on the fence between 4 and 8...MAYBE 6 where #1 and #2 get a bye. I'd prefer that to 8

If it was 8 tho maybe a team like UCF could actually get in...I wouldn't hate that. If you win ALL your games you should be allowed the chance to play for a national 'ship in my humble

I am iffy about 8. Yes, it is better than four, and worlds better than just "deciding" which two schools deserve it more, but when you get a stacked field of "names", there is too much temptation to weed out the UCFs by jumping another SEC or B1G school ahead of them because "strength of schedule".

16 also eliminates a need for a bye. You're also running under the assumption that 1 will kick the shit out of 16 for round one play. They could bracket better than that if nobody decides to be lazy. The problem O see with a bye for 1 and/or 2 is it has more involved than just how good a team is. A (example) two loss Georgia could get way more love than an undefeated Tulsa, who ends up ranked like 5. Would it be exactly fair that Tulsa doesn't get to rest after having to claw their way up the rankings, run the table, get lucky enough that some of the "right" teams lose, and then not get any rest because they aren't a big money name and didn't start the season with a high rank in the polls grandfathered in?

An extra round would mean more than those same teams playing at the Charmin Half-Ass Random Bowl for an exhibition.
