The Rest of College Football

I think it will be a moot point because I see TCU and USC both winning. UGA will thump USC and M will beat TCU...setting up a rather uncompetitive chamionship game.

Rooting for TCU and USC because I think it’s better for new teams to make the CFP. The Vegas spreads on those games are actually very close.

TCU -2.5 vs Kansas State
USC - 3.0 vs Utah

I watched the USC at Utah game a month ago… it was popcorn entertainment. Both offenses couldn’t be stopped. Utah converted on that final 2 point play and somewhat lucked into a win. I thought USC was better from an eye test perspective because everything came easy for them.

Those two games should be very interesting. USC and TCU could easily be in trouble.

KSU has had a history of pulling upsets in the B12 Champ Game...and the Utah-USC is a tossup to me as it will be high scoring...but I think the faves will win...barely.

Just please give us a non-SEC team in the playoff game.

IMHO the ideal playoff outcome for UM is UGA, TCU, and USC at #4. We would be favored against TCU and then USC has maybe a 10% shot at upsetting UGA, but I think that we could beat USC.

HARBAUGH!!!!!!! refuses to lose!!!!!!!

With our luck, LSU will pull the upset over UGA in convincing fashion thus dropping the Dawgs all the way to #4. Michigan, fresh off a thumping of Purdon't will move up to #1.

Safe bet would be:
- Georgia defeats LSU
- M defeats Purdue
- 1 of TCU or USC is upset in their conference championship game.

I would probably moneyline parlay that. Leaning towards thinking TCU is the team that’s upset. So USC wins.

My final CFP prediction to be revealed on Sunday:
1. Georgia
2. M
3. USC
4. Ohio State

Georgia takes the Peach Bowl in Atlanta. Home field advantage for them. M gets the Fiesta Bowl in Arizona. Championship game in LA.

1-loss TCU > Ohio State, IMO. They have better wins, I think. If they get blasted, maybe.

I still think UAT is going to be #5. Ohio State #6. So it's all moot. And, honestly, whatever.

Well, we’ll know what the committee thinks of Ohio State vs Alabama tomorrow. Glad that will be settled early prior to the conference championship games.

I think it’ll be Ohio State #5, Alabama #6, but you never know.

I want no part in it. Georgia would beat us by 2-TDs. Minimum. And I can’t stand the Kirby gloat and smirk on him beating Bama back-to-back.

Let us go to the Sugar and get beaten by Kansas State or whomever, and we would because since it’s not a championship I’m sure we’d have a number of opt-outs trying to protect themselves for the Draft.

Very plausible. I'll be rooting for USC and TCU to win their games. I wonder if they'd flip USC to 3 and drop TCU to 4 if they both win.

The hosts of the two semifinal games this year are the Peach Bowl (Atlanta) and Fiesta Bowl (Phoenix). The #1 seed gets to select their destination so Peach Bowl for Georgia if they beat LSU. That would send Michigan west to the Fiesta. Seems like a matchup with USC would be highly sought by the PTB.

I think so too. OSU will be the 1st team on the waitlist if either of USC or TCU loses. I give them a very good shot at still getting into this thing.

Correct. Ohio State can saunter off to Pasadena where they an invent new ways to fuck up a game against some shitty ass P12 team.

Utah-OSU rematch!!!
