Re: Kiffin is the Benjamin Button of football
I like it :lol: I don't even know if Kiffin will work at FAU. He shouldn't have too difficult a time of it. But if he fails here, it's obviously career suicide as far as his head coaching aspirations go. He can still always become a coordinator. I've always wondered how Kiffin worked himself into th...

Re: What Must The Big XII Do?
I don't know what their complaint is this year. Oklahoma has beaten Oklahoma State and West Virginia. Okay, so add that in with a crushing loss at home to Ohio State and a loss to 9-3 AAC team Houston, how do they get in over Ohio State or Washington? They have no beef. The first year of the playoff...

Re: The Big 10...
I can't say that Penn State and Wisconsin haven't looked impressive down the stretch, but I'm wagering on the Big 10 doing yet another faceplant in the postseason. I'd have to check the records on this, but I'd be curious when the last time the Big 10 had a winning record during bowl season. This co...

Bowl Pick'em is Up and Running!
Go make your picks! :D We're doing both confidence and W/L record, or if you only want to do W/L, you'll still be eligible to win that contest. http://www.cfpmessageboard.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11308 The final leaderboard tally is (finally) up. Spoiler: Spence won. Congrats again! 8)

CFP Bowl Pick'em - 2016
Welcome back to our bowl pick'em at CFP! I'm leaving the option up to you whether or not you want to do confidence points or not. I know it can be a hassle, but if you use a service like ESPN, it makes it easier to sort out. I'll be keeping a separate tally of straight-up W/L record and with the bow...

Leaderboard - CFP Pick'em Final
Congratulations to Spence! He wins (yet again!). He did a number on us this year. I don't want to give him props considering he's a Buckeye, but it comes with the territory. :mrgreen: Good luck to you all this bowl season! 1. Spence - 185 2. Eric - 175 3. Highfly - 171 4. Donovan - 165 5. Cane - 161...

Re: Bowl Thoughts
I will say this about P.J. Fleck: Whether or not he ends up coaching this game, he's done an unbelievable job and his enthusiasm is infectious. The problem for him going forward, as I see it, is schematic. Right now he is the biggest fish in a little pond, but at the next level, his advantage is goi...

Bowl Thoughts
I'll have the bowl contest running soon, after I tally the final picks standings. Here are my general bowl thoughts: I feel like Alabama is set to throttle Washington, but I want to see what Washington's offense can do to see whether or not they can hang in this game. Also, just don't throw pick six...

Re: Michigan vs FSU?
Well, Billybud, after all these years.....It's finally on! :D I really don't know what to make of this game. I've seen FSU's defense struggle mightily early this year, but they seem to have gotten much better on that side of the ball as the year went on. I know their defensive line is great and will...

They got dropped 2-3 spots when they didn't even play a game once the #2 and #3 teams fell on the last week that year. Putting OSU in the Playoff is a BIG middle finger to ...

Re: Playoff Pandemonium
I don't exactly have a problem with the committee looking at stuff like that, but with them weighing those kinds of analytics, how is it really different than looking a computer program....You know, like the BCS that everyone else hated? :roll: At least with the BCS, an application of the metrics wo...

Re: Playoff Pandemonium
So, here's my question: If Western loses, what happens with the teams in consideration for the Cotton Bowl? If they leave the spot empty at that point, then Navy has to take care of business against Army. Highly likely, but you never know in a rivalry game. So if Navy were to lose, the Cotton Bowl w...

Playoff Pandemonium
This process feels like it's turning into a joke. So apparently, Michigan still has an outside chance at backing into the playoff, despite losing 2 of 3. Michigan probably need Clemson and Washington to lose in order for it to cause enough chaos. If Colorado and Virginia Tech won, would the committe...

Re: Do They Really Analyze It That Way?
Pittsburgh is really one of the most incredible college football situations I've ever seen. Pat Narduzzi is supposed to be the defensive wizard and their offense is supposed to be generic and simple and boring. Turns out, their offense is unbelievably good and their defense is the worst in the ACC o...
