2014 Week 14 CFB Open Thread

[kujirakira]

If we have Miller and Barrett next year I don't think that will be a problem. The experience will be worth it.

When this year did the media/voters/committee give us a break for VT?

 

[Jake]

These coaches going for two too early and no one calls them on it. Kick the XP earlier and all they need to do is kick it again.

 

[Mike80]

Didn't JT have roughly a month by the time we played VTech?

19 days and a very different scheme for both weeks.

Think a lot of people are underestimating the impact. Not like this is a team that the defense carries either.
I'll be thrilled with the conference and anything after that is exhibition.
Would rather draw a bowl than deal with the 'Ohio State got blown out in the playoffs last year, why should they go again?' narrative all 2015.

Who gives a shit about a narrative that may or may not form anyway? Go for broke now.

Can't see anyway they jump us this week after that shit. More and likely TCU stands alone at 4 at this point

 

[Saw31]

Pretty much can't take a sack there TT.

 

[Mike80]

Rod Gilmore more or less just put Ohio State into the playoffs (if they win out)

Those bastards at WVU blew it vs TCU a few weeks back.

 

[Jake]

If we beat Wisconsin we should move to #4.

Let TCU and Baylor argue about 5th and 6th.

 

[Mike80]

Rod Gilmore I take back everything negative I've ever said bad about you.

 

[Jake]

If Auburn beats Alabama, would we really have a playoff with no SEC team in it?

Oh please, oh please...war eagle!

 

[Mike80]

War Damn Iggle y'all

 

[dragurd]

Better yet war eagle then mizzou would abe amusing to see the SEC him and haw about how a former BigXII team should jump the BigXII teams

JT had a month, but the oline was awful. The line is playing so much better. Marshall has emerged. EzE has grown into a horse. And once JT was carted off, the defense DID carry the team. So much talent on this team. Yeah, it stinks JT is done, but CJ is not a scrub...many were shocked JT got the nod over him to start with...it was a very narrow decision for the staff.

I just really like this team...and if they can step up and beat a Wisconsin team that is playing as good as anybody right now, then I'll love to see what the Buckeyes can do in the playoff. And if they lose, so what? You never know when you will have that chance...can't just bank on being there next year. The interwebs may say, "OSU doesn't deserve it in '15 cuz they lost in '14." But it seems like this committee is looking at how teams play this year...not worried about past years or what talking heads think.

 

[woofermazing]

Well at least one game turned out well for us.

I like to think FSU is executing the most elaborate troll job in football history, and will blow everyone out by 50 in the playoffs.

 

[Saw31]

Come on Auburn you dirty, cheating fuckers.
