  2. After ND loses the bowl game it will be 6 of 8 seasons under Brian Kelly with 4+ losses
  3. They've played 1 good game this year. Clemson is going to smash them to pieces
  4. Look forward to the committee bumping Mississippi State up another couple of spots for that close loss.

  6. It's just classic NFL to horsefeathers that up. If Kaepernick signs with some team, he likely never sees the field except for an injury and the story is dead by the end of September. But because these idiots want to tamp down everything their way, it's a side story every week.
  7. This ND crapfest is the least surprising thing ever.
  8. That would be a great move for Ole Miss. Oregon looked like they were about to be right back near the top of the Pac-12 before they had a QB injury apocalypse.
  9. The first team in that ranking (and only one besides Penn St) that's not likely in a win-and-in scenario is ND, which should (but won't) end any idea that they're advantaged in any way by not having a conference title game. OSU for sure jumps them if both teams win out. Of course, if they play anything like they did Saturday in either of their last 2 games, they're more likely to lose out.
  10. I still can't believe that performance. I don't claim to have watched a lot of Miami football this year but looking at their previous results it looks like they barely got by a few mediocre to bad teams. Miracle catch to beat GT, TD pass with 6 seconds left to beat FSU, had to make a defensive stand to hold off a 2-8 UNC team. I caught a little of their games and they bore no resemblance to what happened Saturday. I thought all the GameDay guys talking about how Hurricane Irma affected them and maybe they're peaking now was a bunch of bluster, but maybe there's something to it. I suppose I shouldn't be bitter because they might represent the best chance for us not to have a Bama/Clemson/Ohio State/OU playoff for what would seem like the billionth time.
  11. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Virginia or Pitt beats Miami. They played their A+++++ game against ND and often what follows is a slip-up.

  13. They will get in if they beat Ohio State. And they'd deserve to given the carnage going on right now. But as I said I expect the Buckeyes to dump truck them and make it to the playoff themselves.
  14. No way Auburn is ahead of Wisconsin. I’m really surprised there’s isn’t more talk about them being playoff contenders. With just Minnesota and Michigan left on heir schedule, they have a strong chance of going into the title game undefeated. Their schedule is the most pitiful thing ever put forth by a P5 team. Their only win over a currently ranked team is Northwestern, which is only ranked because they're in the same godawful division as Wisconsin. They'll get in if they win the B1G, but I think Ohio State is going to incinerate them in the league title game (as long as they show up). We're headed for Alabama and Ohio State and very possibly Clemson in the playoff yet again.
  15. Right, this is what happens every time ND ever has a chance to be relevant. Now I remember
  16. I'm not the first person to say so, but all the talk about Alabama and Georgia going 12-0 makes me think at least one is going down tomorrow.
  17. Best Saturday of the season and I'm going to have to work through the bulk of it. Sigh.
  18. I don't know how in the heck Rizzo got the Platinum Glove last year as a 1B, but I really don't know how you go from that to not even getting a Gold Glove this year. He was just as good.
  19. This is terrible. He was so good that I still remember Sergio Mitre beating him in a random game in like 2005 or something because it was one of the most stunning regular-season results ever to me. RIP
  20. I guess Samardzija probably wouldn't be any worse than Lackey.

  22. Well their only chance now is Wisconsin running the table, and even an uneven Ohio State team should be able to handle them if they show up IMO. (That's, of course, assuming Michigan State doesn't beat OSU, which is far from a given at the moment.) I’m not entirely sure an undefeated Wisconsin gets in now. Their best win would be vs a 2 or 3 loss PSU/OSU Would they deserve to? Probably not. But I don't think the powers that be would want to deal with the giant conniption the entire conference would throw. My guess is if Wisconsin ran the table there would be enough carnage elsewhere to justify it. Maybe if the 12-0 Georgia/12-0 Bama scenario played out, plus two of ND/Clemson/Oklahoma winning out, a 13-0 Wisconsin would still get shafted. But that's about the only way I can see it.
  23. i saw someone else make this joke on twitter and i just didn't see how it lands...the bulls have traded a good player for a disappointing return in recent memory...once? (which ironically he was part of the return for) typically they've traded disappointing players, sometimes for surprisingly good returns. They weren't good players, but I'm guessing dumping Taj and McDermott for exactly horsefeathering nothing for no real reason is probably part of the joke.
  24. Well their only chance now is Wisconsin running the table, and even an uneven Ohio State team should be able to handle them if they show up IMO. (That's, of course, assuming Michigan State doesn't beat OSU, which is far from a given at the moment.)
  25. McGloin playoff starts in 2016: 1 Kap: 0 Obvious move They actually had the same number of playoff starts in 2016. McGloin sucked so much against Denver (6-11 for 21 yards) before getting hurt that the Raiders gave Connor Cook the first start of his career in the playoffs. Damn it, I knew not looking that one up would come back to haunt me.
