The Polls (AP, Coaches, & CFP, etc.)

Their target will always be osu.

Nothing moves the needle like that. It would kill their bottom line if osu ever joined the sec and the narrative had to flip.

Oklahoma had more big game struggles than osu in the late 00s but it was osu that got 98% of the focus/disdain. Fast forward a decade and it's the same.

Amen to that! :chest:
This. I’ve straight up tuned out all media whenever they’re discussing OSU.

This year is not every year; otherwise, just go back to the BCS system.....and strip away our 2014 national title at the same time. You can't have a floating number of teams based on how many truly deserve to be in. Is it 2 this year, 3 a couple of years ago, 6 in 2014. Eight is the perfect number because while you'll certainly have teams that really don't belong, but you'll never have a year where a team that has earned it gets left out. 5 P5 champs, highest ranked G5 and 2 at-large. First round games at top 4 seeds home fields.

As long as there is some sort of clause next to P5 Champs and highest G5 team. I'm sorry but situations like 2012 where a conference champ has 5 losses getting an auto bid should never happen. Make conferences with champs that have more than 2 losses lose their auto bid for the year and I'd be in for it. Setting a number for a non P5 team is more difficult since generally if they lose they are out anyway so if they are undefeated I think they deserve a shot, and this includes ND IMO, join a conference or GTFO

It actually started during The Great War, which became WWI once we had to start numbering them.

Yes, I remember some Aggies talking about those tea-sippers when I was in the trenches with them, dealing with mustard gas and trenchfoot.

It’s appalling that they let someone your age fight, but I’m sure they appreciated your experience

People from Texas don't sip tea
A Texas oilman and a British aristocrat are sitting next to each other on a first class flight from Dallas to London.

The Texan is trying to get some shut eye, but Brit keeps talking on and on, all boring Brit topics: cricket, bird watching, bell ringing, The Queen. Finally, the Brit starts talking about his favorite subject of all, the British national beverage, tea:

"You see, my good man, in England we simply love our teas. First, we have the Oolong tea, which is 90% essence and 10% substance. And then we have the Darjeeling tea, which is 90% substance and 10% essence. And, of course, we have the Earl Grey tea, which is preferred."

The Texan has had enough, so he leans over and says to the Brit: "Well, that there's mighty interestin', pardner. Y'know, in Texas, we got our own teas, different than yer all's."

"Oh, really! I would just love to hear about them!"

"Sure thang, pardner. Well, first off, we got the F-A-R-T, which is 90% essence and 10% substance. Then we got the S-H-I-T, which is 90% substance and 10% essence. And, of course, we got the C-U-N-T, which is preferred."

SKULL SESSION: SHAUN WADE GETS HIS SHOT AT “SUNSHINE,” THE COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF WOULD POSTPONE IF NECESSARY, AND JONATHON COOPER

POSTPONEMENT IS POSSIBLE.
The College Football Playoff has seemed massively inflexible with its schedule up to this point, but apparently, they're prepared to postpone a game, if it comes down to it.



I have no idea how the logistics of this would work, how it would impact the other team, what the timeline would look like, how it would impact any other games, or any of that. And to be honest, I've got a strong hunch they don't either!

So while this is super cool and good to hear, but let's just go ahead and try to play it on schedule. Cool?

I don’t really get the consternation by A&M and Domer fans. A&M already got rolled by Bama early in the year. Domers literally just got rolled by a team arguably less talented than Alabama. What makes them think they have any more of a shot than Ohio State?
