Ohio State is your national champions.
wonder what current odds will be for them to win it?Comment -
two team open parlay... Bucks Moneyline in both... will pay better than their odds to win the title. you can make it a 4 team parlay and take the over in both games as wellComment -
Baylor will be playing Oregon
If you really go by strength of schedule I think Baylor slight nodComment -
Ohio St/TCU/Bayor/Whoever is not going to be ranked ahead of an Undefeated power 5 FSU team
1. Bama
2. Oregon
3. FSU
4. OSU
Bama will take Ohio St behind the woodshed and FSU probably beats OregonComment -
I think TCU was really the #4 last week because of this... They could easily be jumped
Select the top four teams for the playoff, rank them and assign them to semifinal sites.
The two participants will be announced on December 7, 2014 (12:45 PM ET), based on the final rankings by the CFP committee. The matchups for the Rose Bowl and the other semifinal, the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, will be geographically selected to ensure the top team will be closest to its fanbaseComment -
I agree now, OSU will get in. And I'm fine with that.
All 3 teams deserve to be in and a great case can be made for all of them and against them.
OSU had a bad loss and beat Mich St. and Wisc both of whom had ZERO quality wins but both were ranked highly. However, two Big 10 ex-coaches are on the committee and it's been well documented by people within the room that the ex-coaches have the most influence. They finished with the 26th SOS. They have beat a host of playoff eligible teams which seems to be a plus but playing in their conference that's almost a given. They also had what appeared to be the best win last night by beating #11 Wisconsin 59-0. Given everything, I think they're a slight favorite to take the 4th spot.
TCU was 11-1 and has the highest SOS at #10. The two things going against them and they are quite ominious is that they lost to Baylor and they only beat six playoff eligible teams. In addition to having the highest SOS they also have the benefit of already being at #3 and they certainly did not give the committee any reason to drop them. Ultimately, I think they're they end up at #6 though because of what the other teams did.
Baylor, 11-1 as well, has a SOS of #13 with seven wins against playoff teams. They also beat TCU yet were still ranked #6 last week. They did just beat a sound KSU team and that will help their cause but not enough but I do think it does just enough to edge them past TCU to be the last team left out.Comment -
If it's about money and it's usually is, oregon vs ohio state perfect rose bowl
fsu alabama perfect sugar bowl. That's what i want to watch, as a fan.Comment -
I think Baylor had the most quality winsComment -
In order of quality wins
Baylor
TCU
FSU
OSUComment -
Comparing Wisky to Bama because they run a pro style offense is like comparing Arky St. to Oregon because they both run a spread
If you think OSU is going to be "way too physical" you obviously haven't watched Bama play or noticed the size and athleticism of both lines
OSU would've had a better chance if their D-line was 100% with Spence
Bama has fukkin 5 future NFL players on the O-line and probably another 3 on the bench
Hope Bama goes down but don't see Ohio State pulling it offComment -
Ohio St. is over-rated due to a big victory against an unmotivated opponent whereas they were motivated to the hilt. Alabama will beat OSU and probably cover.Comment -
Take Alabama minus the points and see what happens.Comment
