Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

Beating the #43 team in the country not only doesn't count for anything, but you didn't like the fashion in which they beat them? But let me guess, LSU can lose to Troy and nobody will care. Wisconsin can "squeak" Purdue and spin their wheels against Illinois and nobody will hold that agai...

Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

That game was absolutely amazing. Why I love college football compared to the pros. This is the least amount of CFB that I've ever watched in a season, but I was glad I caught this game.

Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

Billybud, the non-BCSers (and the Big East / AAC last two seasons of the BCS where they were treated as a de facto mid-major) have gone 8-3 in BCS/NY6 games. I mean it is what it is, but when you take any pool of 60 teams and take the best one, that team is bound to be pretty good. Comparing 2007 Ba...

Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

My issue with ranking teams like UCF is that they never give them the benefit of the doubt. In what should be a case-by-case basis, they always give the nod to the team that played the harder schedule with more losses, even if they lack quality victories. UCF would probably be in that 2 loss range i...

Re: Northern Illinois - Ball State

Ball State this year has one of the worst defenses I've ever seen. Maybe Pete Lembo wants to come back?

Re: UNLV - New Mexico

How did UNLV go from losing at home to Howard to fighting for a bowl game? :lol:

Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

People haven't thought much of the top-tier non-BCSers in general, but they mostly acquitted themselves very well in the primetime games. They went 5-2 in the BCS era with 2012 NIU and 2007 Hawaii being the only faceplants (and even though NIU was vastly overmatched, they didn't play that badly). An...

Re: Never Felt So Hopeless

OK, give me the 3rd stringer :lol: :lol:

2 picks though? Who are we kidding, O'Korn would have been just as bad.

Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

It would, and I don't say that as a put down of Miami. I just legitimately think UCF is one of the ten best teams in the country right now.

I'd probably go (based on talent):

1. Alabama
2. Clemson
3. Ohio State
4. Penn State
5. Georgia
6. Oklahoma
7. Miami
8. USC
9. Wisconsin
10. UCF

Re: Ohio State - TTUN

I'm going to have to find that convo we had, Cane, about Miami vs. Michigan, how I said I would rather be Miami right now :lol: . Although to be fair, you were probably in the right since that was the last year of the Al Golden regime if my memory serves me correctly. I would have picked Notre Dame,...

Re: Never Felt So Hopeless

I'm dead serious about the score, by the way. If Peters plays, it might be like 35-17, best-case scenario. If O'Korn plays, a mixture between field position and exhaustion and possibly a pick-6, will mean the score will be closer to 45-3. The spread should be 20 instead of 12, no matter who is behin...

Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

:lol:


Well I doubt my opinion matters, but it would be a shame if the top-tier continues to drop and UCF continues to not even get a whiff of the playoff. This team could definitely compete against a Miami or a Wisconsin. I actually don't think Miami is that much better than UCF.

Re: Praying for a sequence...will get Donovan to rant

I think if Georgia can beat Alabama, they will use two teams from the SEC. Then we have the ACC winner, Wisconsin Big 10 champs, Oklahoma, Ohio State Big 10 champs, in that order. Since that's not going to happen, Georgia will be knocked out the following week which means Bama, ACC winner, Oklahoma,...

Re: Never Felt So Hopeless

Spence, you're just setting yourself up for failure in case it happens! You know you have a 99% chance of winning, so if the 1% happens, you won't be quite as disappointed if you figured Ohio State will lose :lol: Have you watched much of us this year? Our supposed vaunted running game wilts when we...
