I hope:

UNC beats Clemson
USC Beas Stanford
Michigan State beats Iowa
Florida beats Alabama
Texas beats Baylor

I doubt any of that happens but man I hope it does. I love CFB chaos.

Wouldn't that leave us with the Committee able to put in Ohio State and Notre Dame?

I like chaos too, but I want random teams in there as well. Give me a couple of Clemson, Iowa, MSU, Stanford in there.

Fucking ridiculous. Baylor gets a late hit. Vaccaro falls over the Baylor player on his way to celebrate with Duke Thomas. The entire Baylor team crosses the field to tussle with the Texas players. One penalty is called. On Texas.

Edit: I should probably add that I think the penalty on Texas is fair. My complaint is that it should have resulted in offsetting penalties.

By my count, Baylor has just gotten away with their third personal foul of the half. Even the announcers are starting to chirp about it.

I actually don't hate what they're doing defensively. Why sell out to stop the run and open yourself up to a big play? Just play your base defense and roll the dice that this kid can't sustain enough drives to score three touchdowns on you.

It's not sexy, but fuck it. Roll those prissy fuckers around in the mud and beat your second Top 15* team this season.

You were saying?

If Texas loses this game the entire staff should be fired. Seriously. That drive was the most inept defensive coaching effort I have ever seen. A WR at QB and we go with a three-man front. Unbelievable.

That was some awful fucking tackling on that drive. The only effective tackle I saw on the whole drive was the Baylor lineman clothes lining the defensive player.

Might end up losing by a 6 or 13. Impressive non-adjustment coaching we got.

Any chance Strong fires Bedford and Novell next week or will he go down with the entire ship in 2016?

Wow, took a TO to think about it and still allow BU to blow up the play. Zero chance for a conversion after the snap.

This announcer is an absolute idiot. Just can't wrap his head around why you'd go for on 4th and 1 from the opponents' 40.

On a really basic level, football is 5-on-5 sumo wrestling; if you can't hold your own on the line, nothing else matters.

It's early, but Florida's big guys seem overmatched.

Florida is a pathetic team, they could easily of had 3 more losses against bad competition. If this game is close, Bama deserves to drop out of the playoffs.

The SEC is really a garbage product this year. These teams are impossible to watch. I mean, are we sure Alabama is any good? I suspect they would be a 14 point underdog to whatever Alabama last won a title. And this FL team literally cannot complete a forward pass of more than 5 yards

There has been one starting NFL QB the last six years from the SEC, Cam Newton.
