    There goes Georgia's slim chance of getting into the playoff. UCLA's is about over, too. I suppose if Arizona wins there's a remote possibility they sneak in yet, but they aren't jumping TCU or Bama for sure, so they'd need to beat Oregon, have OSU, MSU, and Baylor lose, and hope the committee is impressed enough with them to jump everybody else.

    26 point win over Indiana State. Tomorrow should be good against Memphis/Baylor.

    Illinois looks really good, but I'm not sure Indiana State is good this year.

    The most frustrating thing about this defense is how often they give receivers space to catch the ball and try to knock it out afterwards. Tillman is gone, folks, it doesn't work anymore.

    ITT: minnesotacubfan shows how completely off his rocker he truly is.

    never go full kyle. By being right? Because he's right. Is that what we're calling Full Kyle now? No, going full kyle is making projections off baseless assumptions and calling it 'logic'.

    Scouts is basically survival/military training for kids that starts out all fun and games and gradually gets more hardcore the longer you go. Most of the kids I know who went all the way through Eagle scouts joined the actual military soon afterwards and excelled there. If that's your thing, more power to you.

    Yeah mizzou is Rutgers bad. Still an outside shot at a top half finish in the SEC though.

    I mean, I'd take Bumgarner off their hands if they don't want him long-term.

    they are not mutually exclusive reports kaplan didn't say the Cubs were going to get him at that price, just that they offered. Look, I'm not going to be able to make jokes about Kaplan being a 14-year-old internet troll if you're going to be unwilling to accept a few false equivalencies.

    Early Big Ten thoughts: 1. Wisconsin 2-11. WHO KNOWS 12-13. PSU-NW 14. Rutgers

    So we either believe Kaplan or a 14-year-old internet troll. Now, we're sure they're different people, right?

    Oh good, we've reached the "Other teams are talking to players? The offseason was a waste!" portion of the transactional offseason.

    Projected Red Sox starting rotation, current: Clay Buchholz Joe Kelly Rubby De La Rosa Allen Webster Brandon Workman

    Also, the Northwestern-Illinois winner will now somehow be bowl eligible.

    Coming into this weekend, the entire SEC has two out of conference losses. One by an awful Vandy team at home to a bad Temple team, and one by SEC East leader Missouri at home against the only winless team in the B1G.

    Small sample sizes are hilarious. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/statistics/team/_/stat/scoring-per-game

    If by some miracle they do win Thursday-Thursday, they suddenly look amazing for the playoffs.

    Illini currently the second highest scoring team in the nation, but the schedule has been really weak, so the adjusted efficiency is only 57th, which is still thrice as good as it was last year.

    It has nothing to do with media portrayal and angst, and more to do with FSU not looking impressive at all this season, and none of their competition looking impressive at all either.
  21. bukie
    No, one loss would probably dump them behind those two 2-loss teams.

    I'll look, but I imagine that UGA and UCLA would take an act of God to get in. Win conference championship, have two of FSU/OSU/B12 champ lose again, and they're in. That's quite a bit of help. Georgia needs to beat Georgia Tech, have Missouri lose, beat Bama/Miss St and have at least two of Oregon/FSU/TCU/Baylor/OSU lose (if not three if both Bama and Miss St win their last two games). UCLA needs to beat USC, beat Stanford, beat Oregon and have three of Bama/FSU/Miss St/Baylor/TCU/OSU lose. I didn't say it was a good chance, just a 5% chance.

    Five Thirty Eight ran numbers for the playoff participants, and projects only 10 teams that realistically have a shot at this point to get into the playoff: Alabama, Oregon, FSU, Ohio State, TCU, Baylor, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Georgia and UCLA. http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/fivethirtyeights-college-football-playoff-forecast/

    I have a feeling that Iowa is the second best team in the B1G.
