***CFB Conference Championship Games Thread***

Yeah, if Mississippi State makes the playoffs this year, I will eat my dirty underwear.

Guessing you mean Ol Miss.

Yes meant Ole Miss

USC is playing tonight, even when the Pac 12 had their championship last night? Strange

COVID make-up game.

So basically it would have be a train wreck more colossal than Bartas teeth?

I don’t remember what position you played outside of st. Please remind me.

Huh? I was a LB

I was saying that play call to the 6'7" TE was great

 

[awd4cy]

I'm getting ready for the nightmare scenario where all the favorites today lose, Iowa wins, and somehow sneaks into the CFP...

It’s not possible for Iowa. They can win 63-0 and they won’t be close to 4th. But Iowa will definitely beat small game Harbaugh unfortunately,

Right. I was just asking. I couldn’t remember what position you played. I was just asking. I agree about the te call.

The resume's between 2 loss ND, Ohio State, Baylor, Bama, and even Ole Miss and OkState are so far a head of Iowa's it isn't even close.

I hate that I have to keep arguing this point because it also applies to Iowa, but isn't winning your conference the greatest resume builder of all? If Alabama loses and gets in over Baylor, that's completely ridiculous. How much does Alabama get to stack the deck?

If Alabama loses today, their best win will either have been Arkansas or Ole Miss and neither of those teams beat anyone in the top 20. Baylor just beat #5 Oklahoma State and Iowa will have beaten #2 Michigan who just handily beat #2 Ohio State seven days ago. I just don't understand how you can think Alabama (or Oklahoma State or Ole Miss) should go to the playoff over either of those teams. Not to mention, the Big Ten will have four top-twelve teams tomorrow if Iowa wins today. You're going to leave out their champion when they're maybe the best conference this year?

 

[jctisu]

How many? I count 1. OU easily out distances that.

BTW, Briles is two coaches ago.

Enjoy your gross program somehow getting success they don’t deserve. And go away. Baylor is the ONLY program where I would have to think of cheering for Iowa. In the end the meteor sounds better but that’s how awful that athletic department is in my eyes. Until they actually get real punishment for the crap that went on there that place can eat ****.

Iowa needs win big. like 5 turnovers and 55-10 type stuff.
Utah to win - done
OSU to lose - Done
Georgia to win big - in progress.
Cincy to lose - in progress and will be a tight game.

This puts in Georgia and Notre Dame in
Then the committee needs to pick two more out of:

Bama - I could see them sliding these guys to 4.
Baylor - won the conference, but not sure they would move them in the top 4.
Ohio state - didn't win their conference - but highest ranked.
Iowa - Won the conference, but has a terrible schedule (not their fault) and would be tough to move from 13 to 4 when there are so many teams ahead of them.

My realistic guess of the likely outcome of today is:
1. Georgia
2. Michigan
3. Cincy
4. Notre Dame

But if Cinci loses?

San Diego State's moon-shot punter has had 2 blocked today (one by his own protector), one for a safety.

Utah State rolling the Aztecs, 23-3, in the 3rd.

So. USC plays tonight? Is Lincoln going to coach?

I want to know this also.

 

[BCClone]

I cheer for ISU and then 6 other conference teams. Had to add UT and OU to the non cheer for list this year. Baylor has been there for awhile.

 

[Remo Gaggi]

Please. The hoks have no chance tonight. When you have the 133 ranked offense that has no ability to move the ball, you will lose. Badly. I for one will enjoy the fiasco along with the wailing and gnashing of teeth (the few left in their mouths) of the inbred Hok fans. And pick up a tidy sum from DK to boot.

So the next part I wanted to ask is do you think we under utilized Soehner last year. When i see plays like that could he have been utilized more in scenarios like that or did he not have that set of skills. Just wondering from a player perspective.

I am no fan of Baylor writ large. I like Aranda and drew. Seem like decent dudes.

It’s Baylor, just gotta wait to see what they are hiding.

I hear you. Just no beef with those two dudes. Drew has been especially kind to our players.

Yes i do.

I also think we way under utilized Chase Allen this year.
