***CFB Week 13 Games Thread***

[shadow]

Listening on Michigan radio feed. Questions:

1. Has this always been called “The Game”? Barf.

2. Did Ohio State get horrible calls against them? Sounds like refs got big boo heading to halftime, Michigan call made it seem opposite.

I think the refs have been fine. No major missed calls to me.

Klatt criticized Harbaugh after tOSU's opening TD for deferring and letting the crowd into the game.
Right now after tOSU just kicked off with 3 to play in the second qtr Klatt said this is why Harbaugh deferred, to get a posession at the end of the second, and to get the ball first in the second half.

LOL

Klatt Also said Stroud was very accurate and then he promptly air mailed a pass by a lot.

The rain in Stillwater is just pouring down.

The OSU #88 gets an unsportsmanlike for an intentional headbutt out of bounds. That should be targeting and an ejection. Intentional, lead with his helmet to the other player's helmet.

I thought the pass might have been uncatchable on that PI call, but he got a hand on it. It was the right call

Live I wasn't sure but the replay showed clearly PI

Things setting up to keep an undefeated TCU out.

Yeah, tough call but correct

not a chance. They won't keep an undefeated power 5 champion out in favor of a 1 loss non champ. The committee is crap, but they'd never survive that. 0% chance

OSU defense sucks.

 

[FerShizzle]

But what if that non champ is OSU? They get preferential treatment.

 

[HFCS]

This is a great example of why playoff needs expansion. I’m fine with one of these teams in 4 team playoff or even as #1.

But in a four team playoff this is looking like half the field will be from a conference that only has two teams to begin with. 8 or 12 and no prob w both of them, just four??? What’s the purpose of a rematch?

 

[alarson]

All else being equal sure, theyll get the edge. They wont get in ahead of an undefeated P5 team.

 

[CRcyclone6]

But what if that non champ is OSU? They get preferential treatment.

Then they drop to #4. Georgia, Michigan, TCU, OSU.

If TCU ends the season with two less than impressive wins I think they’re in trouble. A close win today and I could see the committee dropping them to fifth next week.

 

[madguy30]

Okie State doing weird things on a 4th down.

WV likely going to win although they probably need at least one first down.

 

[CRcyclone6]

Clemson 40 game home winning streak in jeopardy.

 

[FerShizzle]

Then they drop to #4. Georgia, Michigan, TCU, OSU.

I could see TCU lacking in “style points” today and in the CCG (they will be facing 2 of the top Ds in the league) and that being enough to question whether they deserve it.

But ya. There playoff berth would probably come at the expense of LSU or USC.

 

[Mr Janny]

If TCU ends the season with two less than impressive wins I think they’re in trouble. A close win today and I could see the committee dropping them to fifth next week.

if TCU runs the table, they are in. The committee will not put a non champ with a loss in the plaoff and leave out a power 5 undefeated champ. Some talking heads might suggest it, to stoke some controversy, but it's not going to happen.

Crazy that Harbaugh and Frost both altered their contracts while on the hot seat, and the difference in outcomes.
