You may be right about GA Tech. I wouldn't bet on it, but I wouldn't be surprised either. I'll definitely be rooting for chaos theory at the top. War Damn Eagle! I'd love to see every team in the BCS top four go down as long as it doesn't let the Buckeyes or the Irish back into it.

[BarryBobPosthole]

I think you’re givng Satan too much credit. He can’t play too. They basically have a second team linebackng corps and Stidham is hitting his stride in that offense. He’s the genuine article. I’m still not convinced Jalen Hurts is. If anybody can do it, Auburn can force Hurts to have to put the game on his arm.

It’ll be the game of the week fer sure.

Nick probably will have three at least, maybe five of his injured players back for saturday. Gus is gonna be thinking about how much money the hogs are gonna offer him after they fire Beilema friday

[BarryBobPosthole]

My favorite sports network is claiming this morning that even if Alabama loses in the Iron Bowl or in the SEC championship to Georgia, they would remain in the top four. And mind you Alabama has played one of the weakest schedules of any team in the top ten, including Wisconsin. They have ONE victory over a ranked team this year (Miss State). One.

Does my disdain for the ‘playoff that isn’t a playoff’ shine through this cloud of bullshit? This isn’t a playoff. All they’ve done is create at a new at large bowl system that sells tickets.

Assholes.

Posty, I'm gonna go way out on a limb here and guess you're not entirely on board with the current playoff system

[BarryBobPosthole]

By definition, its not a playoff if you have to be nominated to participate in it. Its an invitation only tournament.

BKB

[Chicken Dinner]

If they lost in the Iron bowl in a close one, but won the SEC Championship (I haven't looked at the standings to see if that's even possible.), then "maybe". Otherwise, that's BS.

[quercus alba]

If they lose the Iron bowl then auburn represents the SEC west

[BarryBobPosthole]

That’s what I mean, they’d be in it without having won their conference while another conference winner would be left out.

I think ESPN knows what side their SEC toast is buttered on is what I think. Its such obvious bias they don’t even try to hide.

BKB

[Chicken Dinner]

In my world, no way a team who isn’t a conference champ gets to play for the BCS.

QA, I hope I'm pleasantly surprised with your MS State/ole pizz prediction of 35-20.....this in-state rivalry game is as fierce as Bama/Auburn, any day !!!.....home-field advantage or not, this game is always a blood-letting, no matter who wins or loses.....eye-gouging, arm-biting, and ankle-twisting in the pile is to be expected from both teams. ;)

[Chicken Dinner]

BM, they even had a big article in our local paper about the game, the rivalry and the whole “Rose Bowl” guy and his involvement in exposing the NCAA violations at Ol’ Miss

good luck Muddy! Hope y’all beat the pizz out of Ole Pizz!

BKB

[Big Muddy]

The inside scoop is that the penalties for the many ole pizz violations and infractions will be handed down within 2 weeks.....I'm sure they won't get the death penalty, but some of the sheeit they did would certainly justify it.
I don't think we've heard the last of Hugh Freeze, either.....he was knee-deep in all that crap.

[BarryBobPosthole]

Wow. Pitt is up on Miami 17-7 at the start of the 4th.

And Richt just benched his starter. 9:47 to go.

Let the chaos at the top commence!

Imagine this: With Miss State getting beat, Alabama now has fewer quality wins than Wisconsin.

BKB

[Big Muddy]

Well, Tpostie, all you gotta do is beat WVU tomorrow, and you've secured a whirl at the big dance.

[BarryBobPosthole]

I think we have to beat TCU in he Big 12 Championship to make it. Tommorrow would be a sweet victory but another Big 12 championship would be sweeter. I think the conference is better with only one rankec Texas school.


its a golden age!

Mercifully the season and the Bret Beilema tenure is over. Time to move on to a new season filled with hope at the beginning and despair at the end

Yep, you're right, my bad.....got ahead of myself with the excitement of Myyammy losing to Pitt, today. ;)

[BarryBobPosthole]

I sure don’t understand why if there is holding in the end zone on a punt that it isn’t a dad gum safety.

Looks like they woke OU up which was a mistake as the Sooners are making a statement in the second half.

LOL maybe they’ll score 46 in the second half.

[Big Muddy]

Let the CFP committee hair-pulling begin !!!!! ;)

[BarryBobPosthole]

So Alabama can no longer be a conference champion, right? If so, that’ll be a big hurdle to overcometo get back in.

BKB

[Chicken Dinner]

I want to see them out a two loss SEC Champion in over Bama. Come on they can do it!

Clempson has potential to be a turd in the punch bowl too if they lose tonight. Its conceiveable there could be no ACCteam in the final four.
After having two ranked there.

And what in the blue eff is a cockaboose? Sounds like Len’s band name.

[Chicken Dinner]

If what are likely to be the Top 4 hold serve next weekend, Clemson, OU, Wisconsin, and Auburn, most of this FBS stuff will have worked itself out. Where it will get interesting is if a couple of them lose. If OU, Clemson or Wisconsin lose, those conferences are likely shut out. If Auburn loses, both GA and Bama prolly get in despite the fact that Bama’s strength of schedule is barely top 50.

Methinks you’re right. Still, if Auburn and Ohio State wins out, it’ll be tough to select between those two loss conference winners. And a two loss USC would be in the mix too if they won the PAC 12. So that 4th spot is very much in play.

It makes it innersting. I’m not sure who the bigger media darling is between those three but it ain’t Auburn.

BKB

[Chicken Dinner]

Auburn has gotten it done on the field the past few weeks, but 3rd loss would keep them out.

[BarryBobPosthole]

Auburn has beat two CFP number ones. So I think they’d deserve to be in. But the CFP would be in a conundrum if say, Ohio State beat Wiscy amd USC won the Pac 12. They think Sam Darnold hung the moon and stars.


BKB

[Chicken Dinner]

And, that devil, Nick Saban, talking about how one game doesn't make a season or change who they are was pathetic.

Also, if the NCAA isn't careful, "rules" are going to ruin the college game as badly as they have the NFL. That 4th down play where Auburn's 12 men on the field was reviewable and Bama's illegal motion on the same play wasn't is ridiculous. I was watching with the boys and we've been having a running family conversation about faith, agnosticism and nihilism and right before Bama ran that 4th down play (after the review) I told him if you need proof of the existence of God, Bama won't make this first down. Score one for the believers!

[BarryBobPosthole]

I can’t wait for this week’s picks!

[Chicken Dinner]

I can’t remember the last college game I enjoyed watching more than that Auburn game Saturday afternoon.

I didn’t watch it as I was watching the Sooners put a beatdown on the couch burners. And considering how West virginia approached that game, I would have been happy if we’d have left the first teams in and scored 80 points on them. They intentionally tried to injure players, theyintentionally started fights, they intentionally hit our qb late and in the head, and there is no reason to think they weren’t coached to play that way. Holgorson couldn’t beat us fairly when he was at Okie State and he can’t beat us unfairly at WVU. And yes, I’m still pissed off at how they played that game. And it seems thats they way they play every time they play us. I think its time for a new head coach at West V irginia if they ever expect to garner any respect at all.

Lotta blood and hurt feelings gonna be left on the field, this weekend. ;)

[BarryBobPosthole]

Its always chippy when we play TCU too so I suspect you are right.

Especially sonce TCU right now is the best team in Texas!

A disgruntled Bama fan dug this video outta their closet, and posted it.....gotta admit that "Mrs. Gus" mighta had too much eggnog. ;)

[quercus alba]

Stupidity mostly.

Y'all are all het up about the rankings and I'm more excited about the fact I went 10-3 on what is typically one of the toughest weeks to pick. Won't be as many picks this week because not as many games

[Chicken Dinner]

Now's when you need to double-down QA. Always feed a hot hand...

(And, great call on the score for the NC State game.)

[BarryBobPosthole]

You are our mighty oak, QA. Stand tall!

And get those picks to us right away, wouldja?
