Conference Championship Weekend

Ok enough of that other horse öööö.

Football time.
 
Pull for Kansas State because Bama in the playoffs makes the path for UGA harder

Or pull for TCU because screw Gibbs

Nope. Ugag is in no matter what. The committee chair made that clear last week based on body of work. Just like last year they aren't going to drop teams out of the playoffs for losing an extra game against a top 25 opponent while other teams sat at home. Bama is out. They aren't getting in. They needed to be at #5 for any chance. Here's my guess as to how it shakes out.

If Ugag, Michigan, TCU win: 1) ugag 2) Michigan 3) TCU 4) Ohio State

If Ugag & TCU lose yet Mich wins: 1) Mich 2) Ugag 3) Ohio State 4) TCU

If Ugag win, TCU/Mich lose: same set up as first scenario

If Ugag/Mich lose & TCU wins: 1) TCU 2) Ugag 3) Mich 4) Ohio State....

They are going to want to avoid a Mich/Ohio State rematch in semis.....

Hi!

The only consistent thing about The Committee is its inconsistency. Anyone looking for a consistent set of rules from those assholes is a fool.

GREAT would be TCU and UMich losing and then getting to watch a Battle Royale between Bama fans and tOSU fans.

Next Best would be ugag lose; uMich and TCU win. Then they would be forced into:

UMIch
TCU or ugag
ugag or TCU
OSU

A first round UMich / OSU rematch. Yawn.

I hate these elitest ööööers and pray for their embarrassment every year.

Howecver . . . put a gun to my head . . . I think ugag, UMich and TCU will all win. UMich and TCU's opponents are not very strong, IMO. Most likely to lose is ugag against an LSU team which can be world beaters on their very best day . . . and which has been pedestrian on most other days. But I still think ugag is very likely to win.
 
If I were a TCU fan, these early decisions to go deep on 3rd down would drive me crazy. 1st or 2nd down? Sure. 3rd down, nope.
 
Utah I thought made a case for inclusion last night. Think they would match up well with UGA or any other team. Ohio St does not need to get in so I would put Utah in.

The USC and Utah defenses tackle worse than anything

Utah wasn’t much better in the tackling department, at least the DBs

Idiotic post of the week. Congrats!

Utah messed up a LOT of coverages and left wide open receivers - especially early. They generally tackled fine.

Utah's defense led the PAC-12 in every meaningful category this year. They gave up 20 points per game and 325 yards per game. 20th out of 131 ranked FBS teams. You don't get those numbers with a defense which "tackles worse than anything."

Previous 8 USC games: 42, 30, 42, 45, 41, 55, 48 and 38 points. 4th highest scoring offense in the country. Last night: 24. Seven points in the last two and a half quarters.

Utah's offense has been really good. 7th in the country in scoring offense. But for the second year in a row, they won the PAC-12 with their defense.

USC is a 2 loss team and lost to the same team twice. Their overall resume is not very good either. Had USC been undefeated going into last night, there's a good chance they'd still get in.

2 loss Bama won’t get in over 1 loss TCU. The Bama ship has sailed.

Good point, probably not. Although if TCU loses badly, maybe the Committee decides Bama is the better team by virtue of their close losses to good teams. Bama played a common opponent (Texas) closer than TCU did though, so TCU wins on common opponents
 
Man, the body blows by KSU are really stacking up. Reminds me a lot of what Utah did to USC last night.

Hope to see LSU with the same game plan at 4.
