Since we’re not in, the college football fan in me wants to see a Michigan - OSU rematch. AND, I won’t complain a bit about an all BIG10 final. We’ve been part of an all SEC final … oh wait…. TWO all SEC finals.
I am with B1G on this^^^^^. Saved me some typing.Pulling for my Bucks, but believe that the only team playing Murder Ball will win it.
Georgia's good and I don't really mind if they win but I would like to see Ohio State beat them. After that, I guess I gotta pull for TCU even though they're not a top 4 team.We're out. Who are you picking to win it all and who are you pulling for?
That is why I will be pulling for TCU. If Bama is out, pulling for the lowest underdog. Let the frogs loose!
I do not know, but I think TCU could be better than they are credited. I am a horny toad through the playoffs.I'll give you all this: I and the Vegas oddsmakers and the power rankings could all be wrong. Maybe TCU is a better team than OSU. They did take their one loss to overtime while OSU got blown out on their own field. Maybe the Big 12 is a better conference than the Big 10. We'll see.
That train is going to keep rolling either way. I don't like Kirby, but he built this program the right way. They are here to stay.Georgia just needs to lose or the train will keep rolling.
This is my whole problem with college football in general. All schedules are not created equal. It is a huge advantage not having a tough schedule. Until somebody figures a way on evening things up there will always be some rested powderpuff team make it to the playoffs because of a weak schedule.My first thought is that the committee artificially manipulated the seeding to avoid a Big 10 semifinal...TCU loses to a 3 loss team and doesn't fall even 1 spot? We're smarter than that...
2nd -- the SEC was not rewarded at all for being the physically toughest league. I do not believe TCU would go through our schedule with only 1 loss. If this were to be the case going forward, then the SEC should cut the number of league games...but with the expanded playoffs coming that should not be a problem.
I'm pulling for UGA -- my DIL's both are big fans and I want to see my grandchildren.
Who let the frogs out? Who? Who?That is why I will be pulling for TCU. If Bama is out, pulling for the lowest underdog. Let the frogs loose!
Kirby is 46 and already has a title and looks likely to win another. When Saban was 46 he had yet to win a bowl game or finish a season ranked.I
And that brings us to Georgia. I do hate them. And their winning would negatively impact my life because it will most certainly negatively impact Alabama's football program. B1GTide is correct, they are "here to stay" regardless of whether or not they win this particular title. But if they do indeed win this one, there will be a large media narrative created about how Kirby Smart has passed Nick Saban. And I have my thoughts on that but not ready to post them. Needless to say, I'm not looking forward to that clown show.
Can CKS do this for 24 more years? If so, he would be the greatest of all time...but I doubt it. He's doing well...but staying at the top is not as easy as getting there.Kirby is 46 and already has a title and looks likely to win another. When Saban was 46 he had yet to win a bowl game or finish a season ranked.
Is Kirby ahead of Saban at 46? Yes.
Is UGA ahead of Bama as a program? Sadly, yes.
Is Kirby better than Saban? Not all time, but he's making his way there, slowly.
