ND will get in over the UM/OSU loser. If bama loses to Georgia they don’t have to jump Cincinnati to make it. It’s bullshit

There is usually one blow out in the semifinals…but…
Georgia v Notre Dame
Ohio State v Cincinnati
would both be ugly…

Still way less than Mel Tucker got, for having done way less
Has that contract been confirmed?
Oh I dunno, I saw ten years $95 million reported and haven’t seen an update. That was before the Ohio St game, fwiw
I maintain that Alabama is getting in unless they lose both games.
Two loss Bama never gets in ahead of Notre Dame imo
What’s really gonna be fun is watching the committee slapdick explain why one-loss Notre Dame deserves one-loss Cincy’s spot if they lose to Houston.
Bama is getting in with 2 losses.
Not sure what’s so hard about that. Don’t think it’d be controversial tbh. You cant sortbyrecord this.
If Alabama gets the absolute snot kicked out of them in the SEC title game, then maybe the committee leaves them out. If they play undefeated Georgia close, they’re in.
And if they lose the Iron Bowl but come back and beat Georgia, they’re in.
“SEC champion Alabama” is not getting left out.
I’m not watching that whole thing but this is the same guy calling his players entitled after they beat a team by 50 so fuck him
Right.
As it stands presently, the OSU offense is a mindboggling product that can rip a defense to shreds by having the best talent of any offense in the country, which is perfectly calibrated to fit its scheme. The numbers are staggering: 559.5 yards per game and 47.2 points per game. 7.9 yards per play, a full 0.7 yards better than the next best team. They just hung 56 points on the only team that Michigan has lost to this season, including seven touchdowns on their first seven possessions in that game. Three future first-round NFL receivers. Two probable first-round NFL offensive tackles. A Heisman candidate at QB. Two running backs who average >7 yards per carry. Their SP+ offensive rating is 47.2, a full 4.4 points better than #2 Alabama and starting to challenge 2019 LSU as perhaps the greatest offense of the analytics era. How the f*** do you beat these guys?

It will take years of hindsight and an examination of how these players end up in the NFL to really determine whether this is the best NCAA wide receiver group of all-time, but boy it feels like it has a chance. LSU’s 2019 group of Ja’Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson were legendary, but this is a fully three-headed monster that also has impeccable depth. Chris Olave has been terrorizing the B1G for years and passed up a first round draft slot to return to Columbus so he could rescue his grandmother who was locked in Ryan Day’s basement. Olave leads the receiving corps in TDs, but trails in the other statistical categories to Garrett Wilson , the lightning fast outside receiver who torched Michigan as a true freshman in 2019, as well as Jaxon Smith-Njigba , a sophomore slot type who Michigan has yet to see. Both Wilson and JSN were 5* recruits who have accented Olave to put together this unstoppable tank. Olave and Wilson will be first rounders in April (unless Day also abducts Wilson’s grandma) and JSN seems to be a lock to be one in April 2023 already.
Those three have combined for 73% of OSU’s pass yardage this season, but the remaining 27% is scattered between a litany of other talented options, including the next wave of guys who will be gut-punching the B1G for the next several years. That includes Emeka Egbuka , a true freshman who was the nation’s #10 overall recruit this spring (and is also the team’s kick returner), Marvin Harrison Jr. , son of that Marvin Harrison and a top 100 recruit himself, and Julian Fleming , who was the nation’s #3 overall recruit last spring. The amount of weapons that Ohio State has at the skill positions is so disturbing that the FBI ought to have put the team on the terror watchlist by now.
8.5 points LOLOLOLOL
Because I hate myself I rewatched the 2016 Game. Completely forgot UM fumbled at the OSU 1 yard line. So tilting.
Also JT was short, obviously

Kentucky ⅂osing to ⅂ouisvi⅂⅂e to send Kentucky to the Music City Bow⅂ after how Kentucky started the year would be the b⅂uest of b⅂ue ba⅂⅂s. So that is of course what is going to happen.

Plenty of room within +7 for Michigan to cover and still suffer a heartbreaking loss
because of snow? why?
LOL I guess we’re seeing why a 3-8 team was a betting favorite against a 9-2 top 25 team.
