2016 CFB Conference Championship Week Open Thread

Whereas, in the Clemson game...Clemson just did what they've done all year...played a mediocre low ranked team and nearly Clemson'd themselves.

I keep getting totally confused. Every time on espn Scott van pelt says "booger" I expect to see harbllllow and instead it's some guy named McFarland.

The one thing I really don't want to happen is if we get in over the B1G Champion or the PAC-12 Champion and completely fuck ourselves by pulling a Michigan St.

BTW:

FPI 2 SOS 26 SOR 2

Personally I don't believe it should be a zero sum game between OSU and PSU

Clemson and UW are the ones who don't have as strong a resume as either B1G team.

UW should be automatically disqualified from the playoffs for allowing 13 points to Rutgers.

So Clemson may be the Florida State of two years ago er both ACC champs who squeaked by in many games, except Clemson's luck ran out against Pitt at home !!!

Fuck the noise, all that matters is what the CFP announces tomorrow.

Good night, Buckeyes.

 

[AuTX Buckeye]

For those of you freaking out about PSU

Remember this:


Game control. It ranks up there with conference championships and head to head victories in the committees eye

Oh God Heather Dinich or whatever her name is...

She saw the light recently re: the Buckeyes. On a really, really good day she has a keen grasp of the obvious!

 

[UrbanBuckeye]

Okay. I am totally wiped. Got up at 5 and this crap has totally drained me.

At the very least, WE KNOW we have a great team. Hopefully they'll see that (Condi we love you!). If they don't, they're complete idiots.

I'll be on here tomorrow. I hope you guys will, too. I'll need the hand holding.

Night...Signing off until about 11 tomorrow....

But what I'm not is a blind homer. I would put Ohio State in the CFP - I repeat, I would put Ohio State in the CFP. But it would be stupid and/or naive as hell to think it's a lead pipe lock, without question. Believe it or not, there are people outside of Michigan who are NOT Buckeye fans, and they may not see OSU as the "lock" we see them.

His hate for us is hilarious. He was saying Ohio State shouldn't be in before they beat Michigan. He can't justify Penn State's SOS, or their glaring non conference loss. Only thing he could say was "well, Pitt also beat Clemson." Pittsburgh has 4 losses, let's stop pretending losing to them doesn't mean anything. Hell, the reason Clemson is behind Ohio State currently is because of that loss to Pitt. Why would the committee want to put a second team that lost to Pitt into the playoff? Especially at the expense of a 1 loss team with the best resume of any team not named Alabama.

If JT Barrett hits passes like the PSU QB, Ohio State beats Alabama.
