Northwestern got the living hell beat out of them in their 2 losses.

Yeah, they got absolutely crushed. But, those losses were against better teams and Northwestern beat Stanford pretty handily (don't forget: the game ended on a pick that would have easily gone for 6 had going down not been the right play). I don't see how the committee views Stanford (significantly) better in light of that. Now, if they come out and say they've been using computer rankings to inform, I will stand down. But everything they've shared to date has been centered on wins and losses.

 

All that would have done was made the final score not reflective of how close the game was, as it was essentially garbage time.

 

Not trying to downplay the win, which was really good but I don't think the fact that Stanford threw a pick 6 while down 10 and under a minute left should have any effect on NW's CFB playoff ranking.

I guess what I'm saying is, the the score of the game was closer than the game itself. Stanford has scored 30+ in every other game and couldn't get into the endzone.

Florida is tied 0-0 at half with Florida Atlantic. They have 4 first downs and 69 total yards in the first half.

I can't really complain too much since Iowa is 10-0 and everybody expected them to suck but their inability to blow anyone out is annoying.

the targeting penalty is like jazz; the refs kinda just make it up as they go along

 

For UM games I think they just decide what goes against Michigan the most.

Florida Atlantic getting the ball back with just under 7 left and the game tied at 14.

This whole game has been called poorly, mostly to the benefit of PSU.

James Franklin has spent the whole game giving back all these gains with his hatred of touchdowns

Overtime for Florida vs FAU. Last 2 weeks they barely escaped Vanderbilt and looked bad in a win over South Carolina. Who, just FYI, lost to The Citadel today.

Their loss to LSU has gotten comparatively worse the last 2 weeks as well.

Can't believe UM will be alive for the B10E on the last day of the season.

 

Sucks that theyd be in the thick of the playoff discussion if they had executed a punt against MSU but oh well. Still an outside shot this year and it's only the beginning

eh, we barely escaped with wins vs. Minnesota, & Jordan Howard, so hard to be too bothered anymore by Blake O'Neill's greasy mitts in light of those breaks

Iowa st was up 7 with 1:36 left and the ball on the kst 45. Kst had 1 timeout left. Iowa sts win probability is like 99% right?

 

Instead of taking knee, Iowa st runs the ball and fumbles. Kst recovers, scores td a few plays later. Iowa st fumbles again on the next possession with 10 seconds left, kst kicks game winning fg.

 

that is basically impossible to do. bravo Iowa st.

Damn, Florida almost blew that

2 blatant PIs in the end zone that I'm sure the referees employed by the SEC just happened to not see helped.
