Assuming everything goes the way it should, I don't think I could root for anyone of that top 4. The idea of MSU winning it all makes me sick, I can't handle another SEC love fest, screw Clemson and I guess I'm left with OU...which, ugh, whatever.

I'm not sure how much power I you will see out of the Spartans going forward if Pendleton is out. I'm sure they have a backup fullback but of the two listed on the roster neither of them have done anything in a game. I expect they will be spreading it out a little more going forward.Comment

Agree. It would be great to FL beat them in the SEC CCG and have the SEC get shut out of the tourney.Originally posted by entropy View Post
But in reality I doubt there is much chance of that happening. Alabama is a very good. The defense is beyond solid and Jake Coker is making big plays, so teams can't try to shut down the run and make him beat them.I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it onComment

No way Clemson wins the playoffs, I will take any other team (if they beat UNC)Comment

Richt take Miami job. Have fun with that.Comment

Bad division. He could end up doing pretty wellComment

Best Miami head coach since Butch Davis (with Larry Coker being "the Mark Helfrich" of Miami... Or the other way around).
It will likely be a good hire.AAL 2023 - Alim McNeillComment

Richt should do even better in ACC than he did at Georgia.Comment

The Helferich/Coker analogy is awful.Comment

How? So far, the results show a similar pattern. Helfrich is not finished at Oregon, but looks like he is trending down.Originally posted by froot loops View Post
Simply: both took over a job for a coach (Butch Davis and Chip Kelly) that left the program with stacked rosters due to great recruiting.
Both Helfrich and Coker experience great early success because the talent of the roster.
Coker's W/L record: 12-0, 12-1, 11-2, 9-3, 9-3, 7-6.
Helfrich's W/L record: 11-2, 13-2, 9-3, ___ ?
Forecasting the future of Oregon would suggest they will be a 7-9 win team consistently. If they run into a QB problem, maybe 7 wins, like Larry Coker in his final year.
Chip Kelly's last couple of recruiting classes were ranked in the 10-13 range according to 247 (with Mariota in one of them obviously). Helfrich's last couple have been in the 20-28 range.
Overtime, a decrease in talent should lead to less wins.
Helfrich's career could be comparable to Coker. The difference is the Oregon fanbase probably won't want him out if he has a 7-6 season. We'll see.AAL 2023 - Alim McNeillComment

Because Coker was a caretaker, Helferich isn't.Comment

Who is going to win the CCG's?
Bama vs Florida
Sparty vs Iowa
Clemson vs North Carolina
Stanford vs USC
North Carolina's and Iowa's schedule are really impressive how awful they are. It proves you have little reason to schedule any tough OOC opponents unless might need it as a tiebreaker against another 1-loss team at seasons end...
Can't see Bama losing, I don't think they are by far the best team but Florida is relatively weak as a SEC East winner.Comment

Hard to pick against Bama. They may be on a mission this year after getting stomped last year.
I don't think Iowa can hang with Sparty for 60 minutes. They can make Sparty uncomfortable, but man, as much as I hate Sparty, .. they just win. They will here too.
In Clemson v N Carolina, they have a popular phrase in S. Carolina where the word "clemsoning" is used as a substitute for the word "choke". I think they show why the word fits.
Stanford v USC probably the closest game of the day, but Stanford is a gritty football team that just wears their opponent out. Stanford prevails, I think."in order to lead America you must love America"Comment
