2015 CFB FILL IN THE BLANK
1) I can't believe ____ won that game against ___. When I gave up and changed the channel, went out, or whatever, came back. Come to find out, they won. 2) Are you serious? You mean to tell me that (team) ___ is going to the ___ bowl. No way do they deserve that bowl. 3) Did you see that score? I ho...

Re: Favorite/Worst Bowl Games
I didn't mean to cherry pick just games at random. I mean I don't remember this happening in the past to this degree. Appalachian State goes to Michigan and beats the winningest program in division 1. But from the time I started watching college football in 1999, I would never guess JMU or Furman be...

Re: Favorite/Worst Bowl Games
I agree. I mean when Florida Atlantic barely loses to the SEC East Champs, Florida Gators. Furman beating Virginia Tech, Appalachian State defeating Michigan, Portland State beat Washington State, Georgia Southern over Florida, etc. Now, I know that many of these are FCS programs, and some just join...

Re: Favorite/Worst Bowl Games
Indiana played a lot of teams tough this season. If they can bring that into the bowl game, I see them winning. Honestly, just glancing over the list, there are so many duds. Is it totally right that Florida State was picked for a later bowl over UNC even though UNC won their division and put up a g...

Re: OKAY... HOW WOULD YOU FIX IT?
I was just thinking about recent (well kind of) things that needed to be fixed. Remember when Texas lost to Texas Tech but beat Oklahoma. Oklahoma lost to Texas but beat Texas Tech. Texas Tech beat Texas but lost to Oklahoma. Final BCS standings determined the Big XII South Champ if I remember corre...

Re: OKAY... HOW WOULD YOU FIX IT?
Spence. Which old system? I have only been keeping up with college football since 1999. I agree about the conference champion idea.

OKAY... HOW WOULD YOU FIX IT?
That is not me sounding sarcastic. Just curious for input on a dead horse that we have beat, killed, revived, beat, and killed again. As far as a college football national champion, how would you fix it to determine one? We have been through the polls, the Bowl Alliance, BCS, College Football Playof...

Re: LOOKING AHEAD... NEXT WEEK
I had no idea that rule was in place until a few weeks ago. Is there any record of when that rule was created? Or did the brass say, "Hey folks, guess what? There aren't enough teams batting 0.500 this college football season, so we need to figure out the deal with these lower tiered bowl games...

Re: The Skew & Politics of the Playoff Poll
I thought the only loss UNC had was against South Carolina. However, more on the topic, after almost every CFP committee rankings, we hear Herbie and others say there is tons of football left to be played. Well, with only one week remaining, we still have tons of football left. I mean all the "...

Re: Torture
The cool thing about where I live is I can be in a number of stadiums within a two hour drive. Three hours away if I get crazy. Most are ACC stadiums, and I just enjoy the game. UVA, Virginia Tech, Duke, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Appalachian State, East Carolina, Wake Forest, etc. are al...

Do you mean an undefeated Clemson won't be in the final four?

LOOKING AHEAD... NEXT WEEK
I will admit. I have not seen Iowa play a single down this season. I have not a single clue what could happen in the Big 10 Champs Game. I feel that the ACC Champs Game could be really good. Let me see how the Gators look tonight. I feel that Alabama will take care of business against Florida. What ...

Re: Torture
That is all I could tell myself during this game. Michigan has to be on the up and up. But I was severely upset that it was this lopsided especially in Ann Arbor. Next year...

Re: Random Thoughts on Week 12
Just wondering what happened to Florida. Look what they needed to get by whoever it was they beat. LSU loses another one. Now Miles is on the hot seat. They could still have a ten win season .... I think. The Big XII is really knocking their teams around. BC gave Notre Dame a fight. Now I want to kn...

Re: Mark Richt
I am right there with you on that, but put a coach in at Athens, GA that goes a few seasons with 6-6, 7-5, 8-4, and 5-7 records, and a another new coaching change won't be instant enough.
