Lame rest of the CFB day IMO. Not just because PSU Bye week.

Won’t and shouldn’t happen. They will only play in the SEC championship.

No way does a one loss team get in over an undefeated WVU or Clemson.

No way WVU is undefeated. They'll lose at least three games.

3? Lol no. I think 1 or 2. That’s a damn good team. But their biggest tests are down the stretch.

Pretty damn classless. They're better than that. But then, college kids don't care.


As for the day itself, PSU's loss has greatly zapped a lot of my interest in the season now. There's always one or two weekends a season where things get shaken up. I don't think it was too much of a surprise that WVU and UGA got whacked on the road. If Pitt wasn't Pitt, they would have taken out ND. Miami lays a total egg on the road at Virginia. The Chokies nearly live up to their nickname with a lackluster comeback win at NC. Nebraska goes to 0-6 for the first time ever by allowing that giant NW comeback. Florida & Vandy nearly have a bench-clearing brawl after a decleating block on a punt return led to the two head coaches shouting at each other and EVERYONE on both teams assessed an unsportsmanlike conduct foul for leaving the sideline (that got a Florida player tossed since that became his 2nd unsportsmanlike). Auburn's a total no-show at home against a team that hadn't won an SEC game in 12 tries. UCF pitches a shutout in the 2nd half and Memphis goes all Three Stooges on themselves on the final drive to give the Knights the win and as a result, many of my co-workers will continue to whine about getting zero respect. I really can't wait til they lose but I'm afraid that may not happen now.

But the one thing that stays constant is Alabama. They take the opening kickoff and it's all of 2 plays before they're on the board. Then they just suck the life out of the other team like they're a boa constrictor. Interesting to see how much Tua's injury will slow him down. Will also be interesting to see how Bama-LSU shakes out. That game is November 3 in Baton Rouge and LSU will be coming off a bye. From what I've seen, that might be the only obstacle to Bama waltzing into the playoff undefeated.
