Iowa deserved to be there no matter what Paul Finebaum was saying. Yes, well ... Finebaum also talked about the Miami Head Coaching job as, "No coach would want to go there", citing that, "First of all, to start with, the University is Bankrupt" ... Miami was able to sign Coach ...

I do not care what people think of Iowa's SoS ... They need to be ranked below Michigan State and above Ohio State. That was an amazing game, and what an incredible job Kirk Ferentz has done bringing the Hawkeyes program back to prominence --- In my opinion, they deserve the Rose Bowl berth. Michiga...

I'd also like to give a sincere thanx to Armchairqb ... Nice job of keeping this thread fresh & updated. You've caught some on here that I have missed. Most recent is the Dino Babers to Syracuse --- the commentators last night during the MAC Championship game were talking about Dino's name as ha...

That! .... hmm

You may be on to something there, Spence.

If I could go completely back to the old system, I would. No playoff, mythical national champion. If we have to have a playoff then I let all conference champions play in a tournament and the winner is the champion. Amen. I still prefer four as the number of teams that could decide a true national ...

. CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- Tenth-ranked North Carolina won't have starting safety Sam Smiley for the rest of the season because of a torn left Achilles tendon. The school announced Thursday that Smiley had surgery Wednesday to repair an injury suffered last weekend in a victory over North Carolina State...

That is right ... I'm not suggesting this be the sole criteria for Bowl Berths; but it would certainly be a nice place to start, followed by overall record. Then if you wanted to yet use an Academic Standard to fill any Post Season openings, by all means. This would reduce the number of Bowls down t...

. Well, not exactly ... It was not quite a transfer from Academy to Academy. On Sunday, dual-threat quarterback William James, coming off of his freshman year at Army, committed to Air Force– for the second time – after leaving school last month. During the recruiting process, James first pledged to...

Former Army QB William James committing to Air Force?

. . . Yeah Derek, I hope Smart can turn Georgia into a real contender in the SEC. It would be nice to see the Dawgs as a dangerous team. I think the Eastern Division needs them to be. As for Miami --- *sigh* ... let me answer it this way. Miami wanted a guy who knows the area around south Florida. T...

. Derek, I will answer that question in the post immediately below this reply --- but first: The 6-6 teams have hard enough of a time showing up to actually play the games after a long layoff and facing an uninspiring opponent, and now we want losing teams to be a part of the process? I have no issu...

I thought the only loss UNC had was against South Carolina. You are right; North Carolina is presently 11-1 ... a win over Clemson would make them a 12-1 team with a win over the #1 ranked team. Here is what the College Football Playoff Committee's chairman, Jeff Long has to say about North Carolin...

. ... no doubt it is true. However, I am not so certain that it is as clear to everyone as those of us who have been rather vigilant about it --- that is, to the common viewer, they either have it right, or are out of their minds & don't know what they are doing. This is the perception the media...

From Fox Sports: the former Georgia Bulldogs coach said he "will listen to anyone that is interested in him," . According to an interview with DawgNation.com: Richt revealed multiple teams have reached out regarding head coaching vacancies Mark Richt: "Yeah, there’s about five today. ...

Looking at the Top 4 for the previous two polls, I notice an angle that some may be over looking. Here are some thoughts on what I see as hidden behind of the Playoff Committee's justification for their selections. Prior to Oklahoma leaping into the Top 4; the Poll looked like this: #1 Clemson (10-0...
