True, but i was just talking about the interview.

Maybe I'm being an optimist, but they might not be naming a leading RB in fear of someone entering the portal before they get a chance to play a game.

Big Ten radio and ESPN radio are calling for a 6-6 record.

Thanks. I did my undergrad at Pitt.

I guess I'm ignorant, what's a double offer? Two positions? Reaffirmation of an offer?

That's good news. I didn't notice the date, oops.

247sports is saying 100% to Texass.

I'm just being a semantics Nazi, but I wouldn't say "hand picked". The recruits are the ones that they got to come here. If it was truly "hand picked", I'm sure we would have five star players everywhere.

It looked nice, but i saw poor tackling. Too much hitting and not enough wrapping up.

Mavric, that is probably the best looking schedule for the conference. maintains most rivalries and is balanced (something we are not used to). Best two records followed by rankings or head to head match-ups.

I like this idea and the acknowledgement that other problems can arise. I can't think of anyway that is not going to have some problems. I personally like the idea of regions with champions that move on and, unfortunately, conference champs are the closest to this right now.

I'm just saying that I think the most DESERVING team gets in, not the fool proof EYE test. Earn it on the field by winning your conference. It's not like you can change conferences at will or completely make a schedule the way you want. Play the teams you have scheduled. That's how you win, not by some arbitrary ranking made in the pre-season or by some perceived notion that because you look better you are better. Again just my opinion.

But a conference champ is the BEST in the conference. This means they eliminated the others. using a committee to establish ranking is subjective. I know most on here complain about the SEC bias (and tOSU) in ranking (because it's true) that skews opinions/rankings. These "false" opinions are why I would prefer to have conference champs mean something. If not, then do what Junior said and eliminate the conference champion game.

Conference champs SHOULD matter, otherwise why have them. I'm not a fan of expansion, but I do understand why people like them. The playoff should be about who deserves it (conference champs & undefeated G5) first, then other qualifying teams (higher ranked, better, etc.). When people say X team is better, most of that is the eye test. That is why I say deserve first, then the others. I am an older fan so I like the nostalgia of regions. Conference champs is the closest to the old days of a region champ playing another region champ.

Either way, the first round should be played the week after the Army/Navy game. The next round a week later and so on. I hate that they drag it out so long. They want to treat college ball like the pros, then don't give them so much time off. It would also help keep bowl season more meaningful. Just a thought.

I know he's tall and plays OL, but that would be a BIG nose tackle.

I agree with Crusader. Nike gear is of poor quality. I would much rather have Adidas or even UA.

Why not 15-0 then?

I remember that time. Damn, i think i'm getting old.

It worked for Dabo Swinney. Went from WR coach to HC and it turned out ok for Clemson. I'm not saying that is what needs to happen, but it has happened before.

I agree. Damien Jackson can still have his school paid for by the GI Bill or through other veteran avenues and still play.

Why are most people pick Indiana as a loss? They were the only team in the BIG that didn't win a conference game last year.

Gabriel originally committed to Army before ultimately going to UCF. So it's not that much of a stretch.

I think the problem is Frost hitched his wagon to AM. He's going to live and die by him. I'm not an AM hater or anything, nut he does lack some accuracy and makes some questionable decisions some times. It doesn't help that the OL hasn't improved either.

I work with a PSU grad. I told him i wanted Iowa to win last week so that the Huskers could be the ones to beat them.
