So, conference championship weekend is finally here. I’ll be rooting for Wisconsin. Big opportunity for my hometown team to make a statement about where we stand as a program in the Big Ten and nationally. Can’t wait!

Wouldn't mind wisconsin winning but they are probably overmatched against the SEC.

Micc · Post Post #27 (ISO) » Wed Nov 29, 2017 3:03 pm

Yeah, we're tired of hearing that. Lots of excitement around here because of the opportunity to change some opinions.

Y'all should be worried about getting whooped by THEE Ohio State University and not about the playoffs you're gonna miss out on.

TwoInAMillion · Post Post #29 (ISO) » Sat Dec 02, 2017 3:31 pm

Looks like the playoffs will be....
1) Clemson 2) Oklahoma 3) Georgia 4) Wisconsin or Ohio St

Wow, Buckeyes making me nervous here. Come on JT!

I'm just going to say it now so it's not hindsight if this goes wrong, but Urban taking that FG instead of going for it was a huge mistake. You HAVE to make it a two-score game, Wisconsin's not really playing for OT anyway.

Going for it on the first fourth down and kicking on the second fourth down made 0 sense.

PJ. · Post Post #33 (ISO) » Sat Dec 02, 2017 6:37 pm

Oh hey look, Wisconsin not going to the playoffs. I guess you don't gotta worry about the SEC.

yay nebraska might not suck in the nearish future.

Clemson def. Ohio St.
Georgia def. Oklahoma

Georgia def. Clemson

You think UCF coach is that good, peg?

PJ. · Post Post #37 (ISO) » Sun Dec 03, 2017 1:27 am

Also I see zero debate despite every news outlet being like "Bama or Ohio st".

I think if you're even considering Bama you also need to let Auburn in and just have 75% of the playoffs be SEC

TwoInAMillion · Post Post #38 (ISO) » Sun Dec 03, 2017 8:40 am

Wow they picked alabama over ohio state, I am very surprised considering Ohio St was a conference champion.

PJ. · Post Post #39 (ISO) » Sun Dec 03, 2017 2:44 pm

Yup, that's dumb as fuck. Might as well let it be Clemson, georgia, auburn, Bama and just sick the SEC's dick all the way instead of just mostly. I hate that Bana got awarded for losing to Auburn.

yo listen.

this guy is Nebraska 1000% through and through.

he can't be totally shit taking a 0-12 team and having them getting playoff snubbed and undefeated this season.

Frost is gonna get like 40 years to fix shit at Nebraska, and everybody(largely) will be completely ok with having one of their own do everything in their power to make the program not be shit.

CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS MATTER.
REGULAR SEASON MATTERS.

These are dark times indeed, brother =/

I've enjoyed the bowl games I've been able to see so far, though. Excited to see what the CFP holds.

But really, Bama shouldn't be in

PJ. · Post Post #44 (ISO) » Sat Dec 30, 2017 7:55 pm

I watched SDSU vs Army.

Those all out rushing games are absolutely brutal haha

It's crazy to think that's how all football games were before the forward pass was invented

PJ. · Post Post #46 (ISO) » Sun Dec 31, 2017 5:31 am

That game was great dude. Probably my favorite individual game I've seen at any level this year. Penny looked like a monster among men and I'm really curious why his draft stock is so low.

Pedit: Seahawks Texans the week before Watson got hurt was better

Hinduragi · Post Post #47 (ISO) » Sun Dec 31, 2017 5:49 am

Not gonna lie, I only tend to watch NFL lately when I've got extra time free or I'm invested in a fantasy league.

College to the NFL is like a theme game to a normal. So much is up in the air that you don't know what's going to happen. I just saw a kicker last night miss a 23 yard field goal... in a ny6 bowl game. A kicker who has been carrying his team most of the season and doing well.

You should see the second half of Texas a&m vs UCLA from early this season. That was an amazing game.

Not just that but stuff like seeing Ohio State get absolutely mauled by

Iowa

of all teams is just fun.

Then there's games everyone needs to see such as 2013 Penn St vs Michigan or the 2013 Iron Bowl. I love it.

I watched the Rosen comeback. He's the best.

Agreed, I wish his o-line was a bit better this year because I was excited to see what he would do. He was the big QB out west other than Goff and this was supposedly his year. Hopefully he fares better in the NFL (anything but the browns)
