I thought the cotton was on New Year's day. I was just hoping it wasn't going to be on there. Who knows who is playing in these games.

…………………………………………………

No doubt, some of these games are perplexing ...

All of these 6-6 teams, or 7-5

Then the Transfer Free Agency Market + Coaches Portal

Here's one that drove me nuts:

Auburn [6-6] - v - Maryland [7-5]

Discounting the teams these guys lost to ... although it's hard to overlook a 31-10 beatdown at home to New Mexico St {who turns out out be a rather solid team}

The collective records of the teams Auburn won against [26-45]
The collective records of the teams Maryland won versus [29-47]

Pick your poison from that.

Ahhhh yes, the Holiday Season, a time for joy, fellowship and reflection……. my thoughts turn to the three Wise Men who made the trip to Bethlehem. We could use those Wise Men, one the straighten out the country, and it’ll take the other two to straighten out College Football.

Merry Christmas!

No blasphemy intended………. I figured I better put a disclaimer out here just in case I’m standing before Saint Peter one of these days and either a CFP Committee member, Greg Sankey or an NCAA member is sitting beside Saint Pete and is whispering in his ear.
