#5 Ranked Cincinnati Bearcats? Is This Real Life?

[TheMoneyShot]

IF.... IF.... A BIG IF.....

Michigan beats Ohio State Next Saturday.... I think you have to put Michigan at #4.

More than likely they aren't going to win....

But if Michigan wins.... do they go to #4???? I think you have to put em there.

[jtoler]

now it’s top ten and not simply ranked? every week dame plays an opponent that could potentially beat them if they aren’t on their game 21st toughest schedule so far. beat a purdue who beat a ranked mich st and a ranked iowa. they beat a ranked wisky unfortunately they weren’t able to beat a ranked cincinnati but nobody else has either.

[jtoler]

Ute Up!

[RM Logic]

The saddest thing is the SEC officials protecting Alabama and always giving them calls that are absurd. The last TD pass to Williams was clearly incomplete and they let it stand. It is a running joke within the SEC coaches that its not going to change as long as Saban is there.

[homie1975]

And who in the hell did Notre Dame beat this year??? Every team they faced.... all the teams were on the decline and knocked out of the Top 25. So.... who did Cincinnati really beat??? Notre Dame is competitive??? They haven't been challenged either....

We have a bunch of Top 10 "Illusion" teams. 1 big joke year.

Committee.... go have some fun figuring this sh## out!

they've beaten good teams like wisky (8-3) and purdue (who beat iowa and mich state).

you are going to be wrong about Cincy.

that's all that matters.

[jtoler]

lol great timeout by coach whittingham resulted in a punt return td

[HappyGilmore18]

Utah should be up there. Oregon is fake, Bearcats are inconsistent but def one of the top teams.

[homie1975]

Oregon up in salt lake city tonight. Buh bye

ore-GONE

I'm going to be wrong about Cincy?? lol I'm trying to save them embarrassment if they have to go against Georgia, or Alabama... or Ohio State. Cincy should be on the Disney Channel.

Any team would get destroyed there are only 3 elite teams.

[jtoler]

every year the so called big name schools have been getting blown out in the playoffs so if cincy gets blown out so be it

[homie1975]

No. Only 1 elite team and it's Georgia.

Ohio state D still suspect. Ask penn state.

[jtoler]

Yup they'd have thrashed them by 21

how did oregon win that game I need to watch it

Give me + points Ohio State.... they would compete with Georgia. This should be on everyone's BIG PLAY in the future.

I'll trust Ohio State's D with 24-28 days preperation.

That's what I tried explaining to him pages ago... Blowouts are not a rarity in the College Football Playoffs, thus if dominoes keep falling in Cincy's favor, much like I predicted, then I don't see any reason why the Bearcats shouldn't be granted the opportunity to go up against Goliath. If they get blown out, it's not a unique situation. But they deserve the courtesy of getting blown out in the playoffs like all the other heavyweights.

[homie1975]

It was week 2 and only cj stroud's second start in his career.

Buckeyes had not gelled yet.

[homie1975]

Agree.

stroud threw for the most yds in that game than he has all season I guess the defense wasnt that good then but seems it can still be exploited but they just outscore opponents so it hasnt mattered since that game

Buckeyes fewest points (28) all season save for at Nebraska (26 pts) and it's not like the ducks D is scary.

Also, ducks were up 28-14 to start the 4th qtr so Stroud had to throw a ton which skewed the stats.

College teams evolve quite a bit during a season whether in the right or wrong direction and trust me the buckeye O is a different animal today than they were in game 2.

Their D can be suspect at times so look out next sat in ann arbor.

[Otters27]

I think they'll get in

[HappyGilmore18]

I doubt they can beat the other 3 but I can see their offense giving Alabama fits.

I am not convinced Alabama is the same team they have been in the past.

They can move the ball on every school in the top 25 save for Georgia, mich and ok state who imo have 3 of the toughest defenses in the country.

[chico2663]

Well if cincy plays ga they won’t be able to throw on them. Worried about rushing d. I hope they play against Ohio st. Cincy has 2 best d b s in nation as a pair. I m putting money on ml if O s u plays ga. All I remember is uc giving ga all they could handle in the bowl game last year. One thing people don’t realize is fickle is a tressell disciple. He will never try to run the score up on anyone.
I still think O s u wins it all. Remember when big underdog to Miami fla or Alabama in nat. Champ. They won both unexpectedly.

[homie1975]

Mark my words:

IF IF IF BAMA beats Georgia then we all know they BOTH get into the playoff at 12-1.

Ohio State or Michigan if they win the Big 10, gets in at 12-1.

then it will come down to the 4th spot.

ACC and Pac 12 are OUT OF THE WAY.

however..........

IF IF IF Oklahoma State beats #10 OU and then #8 Baylor to win the Big 12 title, they VERY LIKELY jump into the #4 spot ahead of Cincy.

sucks but it will most likely happen under the scenario above i laid out.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GEORGIA BEAT BAMA

[Four33]

Baylor will beat ok state if they play again then cincy gets in even if bama beats Georgia

[Brandt Moat]

How does the standings line up if, BAMA beats Georgia? OSU (If Buckeyes take care of the lil whore Ann Arbor)number 1 or 2 or 3? Bama 1or 2? Georgia 2 or 3?Who the fook knows 4?

i think it would depend on *how* Bama beats GA in that scenario, on whether GA would drop to 2 or 3.

at 12-1 and a loss to BAMA in the SEC Title game, i don't see GA dropping below #3 maybe not even below #2.

[homie1975]

Okie state, if they beat OU and do not lose their qb to injury or suspension or what have u, will be favored over Baylor at Jerry's world.

Alabama (Any Order)
Georgia (Any Order)
Ohio State (Any Order)
Oklahoma State (If they beat Oklahoma)

Cincinnati can go eat a dikkkk. They aren't getting in.

[Geremye]

so which one of the geniuses on the cfb playoff committee are you?

[KiDBaZkiT]

Cincinnati is a joke. I hope they stay in the playoff so I can fade them.

[Brandt Moat]

I hope they stay. They deserve it over any other 4th. No, they can't beat those top tier teams most days. Neither can any of the 4's that have made it. If they faced Ok. St., it would be a competitive game and either could win it on a givin day. Going to be interesting!

Yeh I agree.

The first game was a toss up it was tight the whole way. Baylor’s starting qb pulled a hammy so doubt he will play till bowl game .

I just don’t trust gundy or spencer sanders in big moments.

Maybe this is the year for them .

[homie1975]

Alabama (Any Order)
Georgia (Any Order)
Ohio State (Any Order)

If bama loses another game (Auburn or Georgia) they're out.
