D-I College football thread, non-Utah edition

And Georgia bites the dust as well.

The stuff I have to take satisfaction from this week I suppose.

If Iowa State goes down then BYU and CU will stand at the top of the league.

This makes me hate all polls. Always and forever but most of all preseason polls.

So…there won’t be another 1/6? Asking for a friend. LOL

The funniest thing is about to happen in the SEC now there are no divisions:

I’m reaching the point of simply not caring about any college structure for FB because it is all in a state of rolling implosion.

Zero reason to believe the chaos is going to slow or stop any time soon. It’s one reason why Id be fine going back to the whimpPac conference. I hate being in the conference with BYU and have no connection to those Texas schools. I expressed this before last week so it’s nothing new. I don’t wanna be in the Big12.

Have to say my one spark of joy this year has been seeing the SEC and USC/UCLA suffer. Sad that that has been the only bright spot. Guess I’m ust petty that way.

B1G too, so we get 10-0 Indiana who has played no one (until Nov 23 when they play Ohio St., which I think will be a solid win to a blowout for the buckeyes). The who plays who and luck of the schedule works itself out in tiebreakers, but divisionless huge conference structures are stupid.

The crazy thing is the SEC will then have to fight to figure out which 2 loss team doesn’t make it.

Almost like the SEC should have divisions and then a 4 team playoff. Maybe add the 4 top B1G, making an 8 team playoff. Oh, wait, that’s where we are headed soon …

But yes, who doesn’t get in? The same debate about the 42nd best team left out of March Madness. Probably LSU (would have 3 overall losses), then TAMU (3), then Mizzou (SOS) if any ends with 2 conf losses, but these same teams, if in CCG, kind of have to be in CFP, right? But crazy that it’s like Texas/Alabama in championship, then seems like Ole Miss, UGA, and Tenn are likely in (gotta win, but could weather UGA loss)

Well tonight showing Texas A&M and Georgia may be the test left out of the SEC. BYU being a top 4 just looks odd.

I wish it were possible that 11 of the 12 teams could lose in their first game.

Go Indiana, I guess.

As of now my Rose bowl tix being for Oregon vs Tennessee/ Notre Dame is fine.

Well, we finally got a mention in this week’s Bottom 10. Not in the Honorable Mentions, but for Harlan’s meltdown in all its glory…eeeerrrrr…infamy.

Southern Cal gets away with a defensive hold on the last play to beat Nebraska.

This season has sucked beyond any football season since the Jim Fassell days. But if Kansas could somehow beat BYU today, it would be pretty nice. It would hardly make up for the crap-fest that is currently Utah football, but it would be nice. So far, 7-0 KU.

Jayhawks win. That’s a shame.

Luck only lasts so long. BYU is pretty good this year but not great. I expect them to lose at ASU next week.

Just saw the play. Yeesh…that was bad.

Sh*tty refs have always existed, but it feels like they’re getting exponentially worse the last few years.

Utah doesn’t get away with that mugging and subsequently there would have been an additional penalty on Utah/Chase Hansen for targeting.
