Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.
With Alabama's 2018 schedule, Nebraska could go 10-2 in the regular season.
Maybe. I see Bama losing to LSU and Auburn.
TAMU should be better. I think Jimbo is a big step up and the Aggies have talent.
Tennessee has a new coach, but meh. It will take a couple of years. Same with Arkansas.
Don't know much about the new guy at MissState. Some Big Ten people I trust think he's a good coach.
Louisville losing Lamar makes the game harder for them, but Bama loses everyone in the secondary. Petrino will have someone coached up to sling the ball.
Mizzou and Ole Miss, meh. Although, Mizzou's O will score on our secondary.
So, plausible.

ESPN has Frost on Gameday after the break. I bet he rips the Knights' exclusion.
Some should be expected.
He talked some about the SEC's 8-game conference schedule, and their scheduling of OOC games in Nov. I didn't really care to see him addressing either issue...the BIG chose to play that extra conference game (Granted, this was well before Scott was hired), and frankly, I wish NU would follow suit with playing an OOC tomatocan game in November. Its just smart scheduling.
Correct. The B1G chose to play nine conference games and then some B1G fans complained when other conferences didn't follow their lead. Heh. College football is notorious for thsat kinda thing. I do like they they noted that Saban is pro-9 game conference scheds and I personally wish the SEC would go to 9 conference games, too. Not due to other fans' complaints, just because it's better for the fans buying tickets.

I'd say Bama has a consistently easier schedule than the Big 10 East with 8 conference games, 3 non-con and ?1 cross-over (is that right on the cross-over?). I know this kind of assertion is arguable so, no need. I'm speaking from a BT perspective so, I'm obviously going to biased. Credit to The Nick for making his pathway to the CCG and CFB a reasonable one.
I hate it that there is no uniformity among the P5 conferences regarding scheduling. The playing field isn't level to begin with and should be before any talk of an 6 or 8 game play-off starts
