***CFB Conference Championship Games Thread***

[RonBurgundy]

So all the underdogs have won the big championship games so far except Cincy, right? Utah, Baylor, and Bama. It only figures that Iowa will win tonight then too.

I feel like it's a win-win for me tonight.... anytime Iowa loses it's a win for me.... and if Iowa wins it will be funny that no B1G teams make it in, and watching Harbaugh lose to a horrible team like Iowa would be fun to see too.

I think Utah was favored. Lower ranked, yes.

I really think Iowa has a great chance tonight if they can create a few turnovers. Wouldn’t be surprised by an upset tonight.

I NEVER count Iowa out... I've seen too much weird voodoo type s**t over the years to count them out.

That's a tough call. UM lost to MSU.... and Bama to A&M. I feel like A&M is probably better than MSU for sure. And I assume Bama's SOS is better? Don't know on that? Bama's win tonight is better than UM's win over tOSU too.

A&M wins (8): Alabama (12-1), Missouri (6-6), South Carolina (6-6), Auburn (6-6), Kent State (7-6), Colorado (4-8), New Mexico (3-9), Prairie View (FCS)
A&M losses (4): Ole Miss (10-2), Arkansas (8-4), Mississippi State (7-5), LSU (6-6)

Michigan State wins (10): Michigan (11-1*), Western Kentucky (8-5), Penn State (7-5), Miami (7-5), Maryland (6-6), Rutgers (5-7), Nebraska (3-9), Northwestern (3-9), Indiana (2-10), Youngstown State (FCS)
Michigan State losses (2): Ohio State (10-2), Purdue (8-4)

You're probably right... I wasn't sure on that? Oregon really tanked late in the year.

This is just total BS we have sucked hind tit this season and meanwhile guess who's getting all the attention. And to make it all really sucky a senior led team. Vomit!

 

[madguy30]

Didn’t they beat a ranked big ten team?

They beat Notre Dame.

Should have beaten them worse.

Sooooo.....

Baylor vs. Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl

If Utah can keep it going for the bowl game I wouldn't want to be the team that has to face them.

 

[JUKEBOX]

georgia should be out imo

what was the point of that game if it literally had no consequences

That'd be Ohio State (provided Michigan wins tonight).

Warms my heart to see the plucky underdog finally win one

Agree.... I've always thought Kyle Wittingham was one of the top coaches in the country.

I mean you are essentially saying the regular season doesn't count then

 

[JUKEBOX]

also the ohio state shilling is laughable

a non-conference champion with two losses (one blowout loss at home against a bad oregon team)

 

[Neptune78]

......... So give Cincy a shot this year. If they fall on their face.... then don't let any G5 teams in again until the playoff gets expanded.

Sure, Cincy may get pummeled. But if the do, no more G5? That's like saying ND, and a bunch of teams that Alabama, Clemson, and LSU destroyed should never get back in.

I think with the playoff you could make an argument that a significant part of the regular season doesn't matter as much anymore

these games used to mean something -- you lost and you were out

Shocking Georgia struggled in the lime light.

It's also pretty obvious that UGA and Bama are 2 of the 4 best teams. And it's really not even close.

maybe they can recruit better because the results don't matter and they get in anyway

Happens every year.
