NCAA Football 2024 - it goes to 12!

[L-Jam3]

They’re pushing the Sugar Bowl back to Thursday night in light of last night’s attack. Sadly it’s not like the Superdome doesn’t have experience handling disasters.

[Nonlinear FC]

Texas is going to smoke Arizona St today and I'm here for it.

Yeah, I was asking about the line before the game. I think it was 13.5. I would take that and run to the bank.

[Nonlinear FC]

One good game too much to ask of the CFP?

I think the Rose and Sugar Bowls are going to be pretty good. This game and the PSU games were predictably headed towards lopsided scores. Not gonna be a dick about it, but the hype around teams like BSU and ASU are silly. Let them consistently beat good teams full of 4 and 5 star-level talent.

ASU out here losing to Texas Tech and Cincy and squeaking by Texas State.

[Giff]

We should have won that game tbh. A couple of awful targeting and non-targeting calls screwed us.

[Rex]

Is the rule really that you have to kick the ball through the uprights on a fly? I don’t see why it should be no good when you bounce it in.

Be a dick about it. They got this wrong.
They need to change that next year when they go to 16 or 120 teams.

It's like giving the US a seed in the World Cup because they won the Gold Cup and Italy-Brazil have to meet early

[Brontoburglar]

just to be clear ... "hype" is referring to the way the CFP was seeded, right? both teams were double-digit underdogs and also not actually the Nos. 3 and 4 teams in the final rankings.

Yes. It's the bracket that is wrong. It was said weeks ago, it's better to finish 5th then 1st. Penn State got the easier QF by losing Oregon. Same with Texas.

It really is wild how quickly I jinx things.

[Giff]

If I thought A&M wouldn’t print a t-shirt commemorating UT’s loss, I might be rooting for them to lose. But they would so hook ‘em.

Yeah, that lead went Skattaboo.

That dude looks like a young Tom Sizemore.

Anyhoo, missed FG! It just gets crazier.

[brian]

I actually don’t mind the CFB OT rules but I think in the playoff they should adopt the NFL postseason rules.

[Giff]

That’s targeting.

[govmentchedda]

How is that not targeting?

[sancarlos]

That absolutely is targeting.

[govmentchedda]

Doink

[Johnnie]

OMG! Boom-SHANK- a-lacka.

[sancarlos]

Texas kicker might be costing himself some NFL opportunity today.

Happy to have been premature here! Now to flip to the next page to make sure no one used this as a prompt for an insufferable and even more incorrect take!

[DaveInSeattle]

The ASU coach looks like he's 15 years old.

[DSafetyGuy]

Skattebo just scored by getting German suplexed into the end zone by a teammate.

[Johnnie]

The ASU coach looks like he's 15 years old.

He's 34. I think the youngest head coach in NCAA history?

[EnochRoot]

OK I found a play by play announcer more annoying than Jim Nance.

Who is this chowderhead doing the UT v ASU game?

[degenerasian]

I actually don’t mind the CFB OT rules but I think in the playoff they should adopt the NFL postseason rules.

Or the old CFB OT rules

[rass]

Ending stunk but what a fun game that was.

[Giff]

OK I found a play by play announcer more annoying than Jim Nance.

Who is this chowderhead doing the UT v ASU game?

Joe Tessitore is awesome.

[brian]

I assume you mean the requirements to go for 2 but yeah that too. They did that to prevent insanely long OT games but that’s less a concern in the playoff.

[EnochRoot]

Joe Tessitore is awesome.

He sounded like an over-the-top "announcer" covering WWE. Also sounds like he's going to stroke out.

[Brontoburglar]

youngest current head coach at the top level

The requirements to go for 2 are fine starting in the 3rd OT. It would be a shame to end a playoff game with a 2pt contest.

That guy sucked. Just call the game. I'm so over the Gus Johnson make it about me bullshit.

[Nonlinear FC]

Skattebo just scored by getting German suplexed into the end zone by a teammate.

That fucking guy lived up to his name. That was a fucking legendary performance.

With that said, I'm not sure having your QB and RB talk that amount of shit prior to the game is a great idea. You do you and all that, but Skattebo was barfing on the sideline because he'd been repeatedly annihilated with malice the entire game.

I never understand giving the other team motivation like that.

[Giff]

I could be wrong, but I felt like he was excited in the right moments. Gus Johnson acts as if every play is a 4th and 13 TD to stay alive in the quarterfinals of the playoffs.

[EnochRoot]

Wow. Oregon is getting curb-stomped. And what was with the Oregon QB throwing into triple coverage on 4th and 3? There was at least one guy open running across to the left underneath the coverage. It was 4th and 3, not 4th and 8.

New meme template just dropped:

[brian]

Ohio State winning the natty but being able to trigger their insane fans with “but you lost to Michigan” is the funniest possible scenario.

It's like music and food... it's not going to be received universally. I don't like that style of over the top play calling. I really like Joel Klatt and he's been covering for Gus' mistakes for years.

Just... call the game, man.

[Nonlinear FC]

It's fucking hilarious this team didn't absolutely fuck Michigan all the way back to Ann Arbor. The wild scenario where the run Oregon off the field and it just makes a certain segment of their fanbase angry is awesome. Because, even if they won't admit it... They are so out of their minds, they are mad as they run this score up.

=-=-==-

Also, thanks to OSU for fucking up the Ducks. Getting pretty tired of hearing about how a new team came into the B1G and ran the show. Those folks aren't wrong, but I was tired of hearing it.

Shhhhhhhhhh.

[brian]

Those of you who have never encountered real tOSU fans in the wild probably don’t believe us but if it you put it to them in October “you’ll win the national title but lose to Michigan” they’d rather it were the opposite.
