2025 College Football Playoffs Discussion (12 Team Format)

What the cig is even happening? Just out here stomping everyone. They aren’t winning, they’re annihilating.

Twilight Zone, I say.
Did you ever think there would be a day where we would cope by saying "At least our loss to Indiana was close!". This is some really wild shit we're seeing.

I’ll give Cignetti credit for taking advantage of the new NIL Wild West. He brought in coaches /guys he had coached at his old program and sprinkled in experienced older players. Kudos.

Spare me the culture BS though. This is a bought and paid for run. Which, apparently is what CFB has become based on the current NIL/ Transfer Portal trajectory. It has nothing to do with culture anymore.

Can he sustain it over multiple years, we’ll see.
I can't agree with this. Just my opinion though.
I think that Cignetti has built his organization quite soundly and they have buy in from his staff down to the players.
To have that level of collective engagement, he's created a culture that invites people to work together.

As for sustain, that's the question every winning organization must deal with, and is a perpetual question.

Looked to me like great coverage and the DBs being where they're supposed to be, often a sign of good coaching. And what even is that point? Every play ever has been made by the players. The cope and mental gymnastics to discredit him is too much, even if you don't like his personality
I don't know man. Relax. The Buckeyes aren't even playing

Yep, he learnt the system and used it to his advantage which is what he should do. The NCAA that we once knew and loved is dead and buried. Time to move on. It's not culture anymore, it's business.
