Question: So I must ask, who do you think will win it all?

[davefrat]

Ohio State, Oregon or Texas. I don't think Georgia is winning it all with Gunner Stockton.

He might not even know his own name after the hit he took on Saturday.

What is the concussion protocol in college? UGA may be starting their 3rd string QB in their first playoff game.

isn't it going to be 3 weeks before they even play a game?

 

[BigAlinKnoxville]

I know one thing for sure. If Texas doesn't win it all, it'll be because Colt McCoy didn't play.

<His round-by-round prediction.>

Nice presentation, selmabtf. Here's my take.... My changes from yours are in ... Crimson, of course.

FIRST ROUND
Tennessee over Ohio State
Texas over Clemson
Penn State over SMU
Notre Dame over Indiana (Can't stand ND, but they're better than IU.)

SECOND ROUND
Oregon over Tennessee (I think the Ducks are for real.)
Texas over Arizona St
Penn St over Boise St (Franklin could come in 3rd in a 2-horse race, but....)
Georgia over Notre Dame

THIRD ROUND
Texas over Oregon (Should be a good battle.)
Georgia over Penn State (More proof of the SEC's greater depth.)

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Texas over Georgia

 

[Rocky Mtn Bob]

if I were a braver man, I would put $100 on Boise

What a great return that would be, huh?

 

[Ole Man Dan]

I think the big winner will be FANDUEL.

 

[graydogg85]

I'll take a stab:

FIRST ROUND
Texas over Clemson
Ohio State over Tennessee
SMU over Penn State
Notre Dame over Indiana

SECOND ROUND
Texas over Arizona State
Oregon over Ohio State
Boise State over SMU
Georgia over Notre Dame

THIRD ROUND
Oregon over Texas
Georgia over Boise State

CHAMPIONSHIP
Oregon over Georgia

 

[CrimsonTitles]

My bracket:

ROUND OF 12:
Texas def. Clemson
Tennessee def. Ohio State
Penn St def. SMU
Notre Dame def. indiana

ROUND OF 8:
Texas def. Arizona State
Tennessee def. Oregon
Penn St. def. Boise St.
Notre Dame def. Georgia

FINAL FOUR:
Texas def. Tennessee
Penn St. def. Notre Dame

CHAMPIONSHIP:
Texas def. Penn St.

I didn't expect to have Penn St in the title game, but they have such an easy path. Oregon kinda got screwed. They should have just lost the B1G championship.

 

[RTR2u]

I don't care who wins as long as it's not Georgia.

Having said that, I hope Beck, Stockton, and the punter heal up well. They are having the time of their lives, and I don't like to see anybody hurt.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

He might not even know his own name after the hit he took on Saturday.

He could go to "Cheers", where everyone else would know HIS name......

 

[westide]

Boise St. is capable of beating any team in the playoff.

 

[BamaNation]

FIRST ROUND
Ohio State over Tennessee
Texas over Clemson
SMU over Penn State
Notre Dame over Indiana

SECOND ROUND
Oregon over Ohio State
Texas over Arizona St
Boise St over SMU
Georgia over Notre Dame

THIRD ROUND
Texas over Oregon
Georgia over Boise State

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Georgia over Texas


So basically, take @selmaborntidefan's picks and flip'em

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Boise St. is capable of beating any team in the playoff.

Boise State IS capable of beating ANY SINGULAR TEAM in ONE GAME in the playoff.
That part is true - especially if they get lucky enough a major contributor goes down for their opponent in the first-round game.

What they are not capable of doing - and their carefully crafted "let's play one team with a decent rep early" schedule - is beating 3 of those teams in a row.

If they were, you'd think they would have scheduled this by now, but they never do.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

What a great return that would be, huh?

I could use $600k (technically I think i only would get $599,900) but in reality I would be out $100

Well, as far as I know they only play one game at a time

Tell Milroe that you intend to practice for and run your full offense in the game, not just plays that Milroe runs well. Make it clear to him that he can play if he wishes, but that his inability to run those plays well could impact his draft stock. Let Milroe decide, but don't hold the development of the team back for his sake.

If Milroe plays it will be to improve his draft stock. Same with a lot of players. Just make it clear that this will not include a gameplan focused on making him look good. It will be team focused.

I’m beyond giving him that.

He’s had 2 years to make himself look better.

Enough is enough.

Him playing only helps him.

I'm not a gambler, but I don't think that's correct, friend.

Isn't it if you bet $100 you get $6K?

I clearly don't understand betting
