2024 -25 College Football and College Football Playoff Thread

[CreightonWarrior]

Easily the best game I've watched all year.

[tower912]

Watching some of the Penn State game and now this has now more than doubled my CFB watching for the season.

[Shaka Shart]

You can't convince me Ewers is a better option than manning at this point. Very underwhelming

[MuggsyB]

Wow. 

[CreightonWarrior]

Suplexed into the end zone by his own lineman. Incredible theater.

we'll find out next year when Archie transfers.

[MuggsyB]

Holy crap. 

[MuggsyB]

That sucks.  ASU would have won in regulation. 

[CreightonWarrior]

Ohio State came to play

[tower912]

If tOSU wins today, what does that do to Buckeye fan?  The one who wanted to tar and feather Day and run him out of town on a rail?  Will they be able to acknowledge their insanity?  Or will the Michigan loss supercede sanity?

I really don't understand what you're trying to say here.  All I know is i got to enjoy an entire season instead of the first third.

I'm saying if you're only interested in watching TAMU when they can win a national title, you probably shouldn't have been interested all year. There's 5 or 6 (and often fewer) teams that realistically can win a national title every year. This year it's been 3, maybe 4. Whether TAMU snuck in or not, they weren't winning 4 more games against other top teams in the country.

[CreightonWarrior]

And just like that the ducks are toast.

[tower912]

Quacking under the pressure.

[Uncle Rico]

Ohio State's performance will help Marquette's cause

[tower912]

Not billed for the big moment.
Their Oregon might be shrinking from nerves.
Going down.

I don't care about realistically.  I care about mathmatically.

[BM1090]

I don't care about realistically.  I care about mathmatically.

And you never know, the bracket could break for you and suddenly playing for a chance to play for a title. Penn State is a good team so taking nothing from them, but there are plenty of teams who would have had a shot getting through SMU and Boise State.

[PGsHeroes32]

Wouldn't say they are back in the game. But Oregon scoring to end and start the half has at the very least put some pressure on OSU to see how they react.

A turn over or quick stop would make it interesting.

[Herman Cain]

Boise State had no business getting a bye. Would have been more interesting if they played Indiana.

[Shaka Shart]

Feels like Oregon's matchup complaint goes out the window when you get boat raced this bad

[JWags85]

we'll find out next year when Archie transfers.

Think you got that backwards. If a QB is transferring, its Ewers.  Manning was tremendous in his limited action this year and will be ready to be the man next year.  Ewers came into the year as a potential top 5 pick and is ending the year with discussions about where he is gonna play CFB next year.  He finished today really well but he was shaky as hell for a big portion of the game and big chunks of the second half of the season.

This is correct. That Ewers's agent is already out trying to get a big deal for him shows UT has made its decision. It helps UT as Arch doesn't require money from the UT collective so that frees up money for other recruits and players (kind of like Clark and Iowa).

I think Sark should catch more fire for not just going to Manning.

This guy's off the team at halftime right? Helping the team GPA only keeps you on the roster if you aren't hurting your teams' chances of winning football games.

[tower912]

The Bartman reference from the announcers was funny.
