Insane stat - 2016 Alabama's defense outscored #3 USC and tied #4 Washington.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Insane stat - Oklahoma's defense has been trash since 2000.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

I don't like Iowa.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Yes, Georgia is good.

[BestSportsEntertainer]

Dominant showing from Alabama. Brian Robinson looked elite. Our defense stepped up.

I like Lane Kiffin, but goodness let's pump the brakes a bit. He's just 4-6 against the SEC.

[BestSportsEntertainer]

It's so unfair for Notre Dame! How can anyone be expected to compete with blue bloods like Alabama, Ohio State, and... Cincinnati?

4-25 - Does it even matter?

I hate to say this but yes it does. If Penn State wins tonight, next week will be #4 Penn State @ #5 Iowa, more than likely getting GameDay.

Cincy will not get into the top 4. I highly doubt they'll get there all season because the CFP does not like the Group of 5.

I lived in Pennsylvania for too long to root for Penn State, especially since I moved back to NY about 5 months before the shit hit the fan there.

Inspired by this thread (https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/q18s9q/what_stadium_experiences_will_we_never_see_again/), here are some ways I'd improve CFB:

- Bring back rivalry games - Backyard Brawl, Texas-Texas A&M, Border War
- Yearly OOC games - Alabama-Penn State, Georgia-Clemson, Oklahoma-Nebraska
- No neutral site games, only home and homes
- Important bowl games - Not really sure how to do this but goodness winning the Rose Bowl shouldn't be a disappointing season.
- Rushing the field after upsets - SEC fines schools because I guess it's too fun :shrug:
- 9 conference games, rotating divisions (so each recruiting class can play at every conference stadium within 4 years)
- Shorter games, cheaper ticket prices
- Dixieland Delight uncensored
- Gus Johnson in the SEC (Please... we'll trade Gary Danielson)

Does anyone else have any ideas?

Power 5 Break off from the NCAA and form your own governing body.
Pay all players $15 an hour for all the time they spend at practice, games, or in team meetings (minimum of 20 hours a week paid).
Ban all Power 5 teams from playing FCS schools. If they schedule an FCS school it is an automatic loss on your record regardless of outcome.



8 team playoff effective immediately. All 5 conference champions are guaranteed a spot in the tournament and 3 non-champions, with no more than 2 teams from a conference.
Force Notre Dame to join a conference if they want to play in the CFP (Regionally it would be the B1G).



re-regionalize conferences and start Revenue Sharing for the Media Rights deals among all the Power 5 Conferences (this will naturally bring back rivalries).
Stop letting schools make their own schedule. The governing body of College football schedules 4 non-conference games (Weeks 1, 2, 8, and 9), and the conferences schedule 9 conference games and bye weeks (all other weeks).
Eliminate Conference Championship games entirely. No teams should get more games than others if they want to play for the Championship.
Non-Conference games are scheduled by the governing body and are scheduled based on how good they were the previous year. The champion of the conference plays the other 4 conference champions the next year, runner up plays the runners up, etc (just like the NFL does with their scheduling). At least one home and one road non-conference game MUST be on-campus.

Oklahoma-Nebraska

Ohio State is ranked above Oregon because...?

GameDay should be at Iowa vs Penn State, not at the Oklahoma vs teXas game. And yes, I'm a Sooners fan (you all knew that though).

Ohio State is ranked above Oregon because...?
They were ranked higher than Oregon prior to the season starting.

Alabama hasn't trailed in a game since Jaylen Waddle's 90 yard TD against Georgia, 57 quarters ago.

The record for most consecutive quarters without trailing is 73, set by Michigan in the 1940s (not far from the last time they beat Ohio State)

Alabama's next 5 opponents are Texas A&M, Mississippi State, Tennessee, LSU, and New Mexico State. I hope I'm not jinxing this.

GameDay should be at Iowa vs Penn State, not at the Oklahoma vs teXas game. And yes, I'm a Sooners fan (you all knew that though).
Big Noon Kickoff is there, so they may not want to have both shows there. Also it's a Fox game so they may not want to overhype a rival telecast.

But Big E is gonna be on Big Noon Kickoff, so I'm gonna have to record that this week instead of Gameday (or in addition to Gameday).

Roll Tide

Pete Golding needs to be fired immediately. 3 1/2 of underperforming on defense is enough.

[BestSportsEntertainer]

I'm sick of the excuses for Pete Golding.

Kentucky held Florida to 13 points and 4.4 YPC
Alabama held Florida to 29 points and 5.7 YPC

So either Kentucky has more talent or they're better coached. It's pretty obvious which one it is. Kentucky hasn't recruited a 5* player in at least 4 years. Alabama signed 7 in 2021 alone.

Fire Pete Golding to have any shot this season. The GOAT offense from 2020 is in the NFL.

[BestSportsEntertainer]

Some thoughts on Alabama so far this season:
- Bryce Young is a clear step down from Tua and Mac, which isn't surprising.
- Our deep passing game hasn't clicked. It was 12th in the SEC 2 weeks ago, and I doubt it's gotten much better.
- Brian Robinson is elite and reminds you of Derrick Henry.
- Thank goodness Jameson Williams transferred in because he's been our best WR. John Metchie has disappointed.
- RT Chris Owens isn't good and that's being gentle. MERCER was getting instant pressure.
- Bill O'Brien's playcalling leaves a lot to be desired. We had the ball at A&M's 4 yard line, called 3 passes, and settled for a FG.

Overall the offense has still been really good. Our biggest problem is the defense. Players are constantly out of position and missing tackles, and coaching deserves most of the blame. DC Pete Golding should be fired. We've underperformed on defense throughout his 4 years here, so it's not like this is a one-off.

2018 Arkansas - The Razorbacks were in the middle of a 19 game losing streak against the SEC and still scored 30.
2018 Georgia - Jake Fromm had his best game of the season.
2018 Clemson - Scored 44 and could've easily scored 50+
2019 LSU - One of the best offenses ever who scored on everyone so can't be too mad here.
2019 Auburn - BO NIX led Auburn to 34 points and the win.
2020 Florida - 46 points. Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Tennessee, and LSU all held Florida under 40.
2021 Florida - 13 points vs. Kentucky. 29 points and a failed 2PC from tying Alabama late in the 4th.
2021 Texas A&M - A&M scored 10 points against 1-4 Colorado and 42 points combined against Colorado, Arkansas, and Mississippi State.

2020 Ole Miss - 10 drives, 6 TD, 2 FG, 2 punts. (3 TD, 2 FG in the second half)
However one of their punts was because they lost 18 yards on a bad snap. One of their FGs was because they lost 5 yards on 3rd down on another bad snap. It could've easily been 7 or 8 TD, 1 or 2 FG, 1 punt. The Ole Miss center literally stopped their offense more than our defense did. I remember when everyone panicked when we gave up 14 points to Ole Miss in 2012. Times have obviously changed, but Georgia is proving you can still play elite defense.

You'll never see an NFL rivalry like The Game, Iron Bowl, or Red River Shootout. You'll never see an NFL tradition like Dixieland Delight, the Penn State whiteout, or the Wisconsin jump around. You'll never see NFL fans storm the field and tear down a goalpost.

Arguably the 3 most exciting football games of last weekend all happened on the same day right after another. To begin the day, #6 Oklahoma defeated #21 Texas in a shootout by erasing a 21 point first quarter deficit and benching the pre-season Heisman favorite. Then #3 Iowa defeated #4 Penn State in a defensive struggle. To end the night, Texas A&M defeated #1 Alabama on a last play FG, giving Alabama their first loss to an unranked team in 14 years.

Meanwhile perennial SEC basement dweller Kentucky dominated perennial powerhouse LSU. Wake Forest defeated Syracuse in OT for their first 6-0 start since 1944. Ole Miss went for it on 4th down 5/9 times to win a shootout over Arkansas, who's 4-2 and looks genuinely good after losing 20 consecutive SEC games. Georgia is playing the best defense played since probably 2011.

The NFL will never match the passion and excitement of CFB.

The 5 years before Gruden the Bucs were 48-32, with 4 playoff appearances (Tony Dungy years 2-6). Dungy for his Tampa career is 54-42 (with only his first year a losing season)

Gruden was 57-55 for his career in Tampa with 3 playoff appearances, and 3 losing seasons.

Tony Dungy built a winner. Gruden won a championship with Dungy's team then dismantled it.

Hell, for his career Gruden is 117-112. He's barely over .500 for his career, and in his 16 full seasons as a coach he only was over .500 6 times. Overrated coach, who never should have left the broadcast booth.

What is the biggest accomplishment in college football? The National Championship? The Sugar Bowl? The Rose Bowl? Winning your conference?

None of those things, according to former Tennessee HC Butch Jones. On November 21, 2016, Butch Jones claimed Tennessee's seniors had won the biggest championship: the championship of life. Tennessee underachieved in 2015 and 2016 and then went 0-8 against the SEC in 2017, but who cares about football? They were champions of life.

The updated standings:
1 - Tennessee - N/A
2 - Vanderbilt - 11/26/16
3 - NC State - 12/26/16
4 - South Carolina - 9/2/17
5 - Kentucky - 9/16/17
6 - Florida - 9/23/17
7 - LSU - 10/7/17
8 - Alabama - 11/4/17
9 - Auburn - 11/25/17
10 - UCF - 1/1/18
11 - LSU - 1/1/19 - The first 2x winner and first team to be champions of life an entire season.
12 - Mississippi State - 9/26/20
13 - Arkansas - 10/3/20 - Arkansas lost to Auburn on a bad call, so I'm not counting it.
14 - Texas A&M - 10/31/20
15 - Arkansas - 9/25/21
16 - Georgia - 10/2/21 - First championship since 1980!

^ :lmao::):wink: BSE does not like Florida!

[BestSportsEntertainer]

Dan Mullen is 2-7 in his last 9 P5 games. He gave a redshirt freshman his first career start against the best defense in the country. 2 of his top 3 commits in the class of 2022 decommitted this week and Georgia is the favorite to land both of them. Fire Dan Mullen.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Yup, BSE does not like Florida at all.

Oklahoma is 9-0 and all is good in the world.

I still want to see 'Bama vs Georgia on December 4th in Atlanta.

Michigan can't do better than Harbaugh?

Michigan State hired a coach last year and is already doing better than Harbaugh.

Ohio State hired a head coach 2 years ago and is already doing better than Harbaugh.

If you're cool with never beating Ohio State, a losing record against Michigan State, 1-4 in bowl games, and no Big Ten championships, then keep Harbaugh.

How is JOSH JOHNSON still in the NFL?
He's cheap, willing to be on a practice squad, and is capable of coming in and being competent.

The key to sticking around is being willing to do whatever it takes to be affiliated with an NFL team. Either practice squad, or if you can't get a job go to another league and prove yourself there.

I certainly wouldn't have predicted this player to still be in the league:

Despite losing to North Carolina, Wake Forest is technically undefeated in ACC play

Despite losing to North Carolina, Wake Forest is technically undefeated in ACC play

Why was this non-conference?

[BestSportsEntertainer]

Why was this non-conference?

They got tired of waiting to play each other.

The ACC and SEC each have 14 teams, 8 conference games, divisions, and a permanent cross-division game.

For example, each year Alabama plays Arkansas, Auburn, LSU, MSU, Ole Miss, and TA&M from the West and Tennessee from the East. The last conference game rotates every 6 years between Florida, Georgia, Missouri, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Vanderbilt. So it takes 12 years to play in every stadium in the conference.

[BestSportsEntertainer]

Texas players had a great week. Colt McCoy played good in relief of Kyler Murray. Caden Sterns had an INT. Justin Tucker continues to be the GOAT. Devin Duvernay had a great TD catch. Alex Okafor blocked a FG. Jordan Hicks recovered a fumble.

Meanwhile the Texas players that are actually still at Texas had probably the worst football week of their lives! At least their pros are doing ok.

Sully? Blast from the past! Welcome back! It's been a while (like 16 months).

I honestly don't know, I think Green Bay makes sense, but he could sign anywhere. Considering he's gonna make the league minimum most likely, I wouldn't be entirely surprised if he signs somewhere and they say get he hell outta here a few weeks later.

And anything that makes Seattle better is a bad thing, so I hope not there (although he may not make Seattle better...)

Are teams willing to spend x amount of money for a part time player for 8-9 games?

He won't be WR1 in most cases. I doubt teams will change the playbook for him, right?

Sam Darnold has thrown 160 passes the last 5 games. 373 QBs have thrown at least 160 passes the last 10 seasons.

Darnold's last 5 games ranks 372 in Y/A, 371 in TD%, and 370 in INT%.

Well they're contractually obligated to pay him, so yes they should.

But if the question is should they give him a new contract? I think it's a difficult question. Is he better than what is gonna be available? I bet he will be. Browns are still a pretty good team so they won't be drafting early to replace him at QB.

1. Georgia

3. Ohio State
4. Cincinnati

DANG what a game. I honestly lost hope for a minute, but NEVER EVER doubt Nick Saban. Idk if we'll beat Georgia, but we beat Auburn!

[Storm Trooper]

1. Georgia
2. Ohio State
3. Bama
4. Cincinatti
5. Michigan
6. Notre Dame
7. Oklahoma State

With Ohio State getting decimated they're eliminated from the CFP (they should be at no higher than 6 but more likely 7). Michigan will jump to 3 (they should be at 4 behind Cincinatti but the CFP won't do that).

If Bama loses the SEC Championship they're at 2 losses, they're done (especially with a bad showing today).

Notre Dame could backdoor into the CFP.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Please keep winning, keep Ohio State out. Please and thank you.

Oh man imagine if Big E's Iowa Hawkeyes beat Michigan in the B One G Championship Game? Michigan would be out too. In that case we'd see Georgia, Cincinatti, Notre Dame, and Big 12 Champ.

Of course Cincinatti needs to win next week too.

How Kyren Williams wasn't a finalist for the Doak Walker is beyond me.

Don't get me wrong he's probably going to end up being the frontrunner next year. And he'll likely be a top back off the draft board in 2023 (or 2024 if he stays for his senior season).
