College Championship Week and Coaching Moves

Georgia is looking better than last game. They still need to get the ball out faster 3.5-4+ seconds on passing downs won't bode well. As I type this they hit a 34 yard slant..ball out in about 2 seconds...haha

They're looking a lot better today.
Need a few more TD's. Auburn is too good
 
Good defensive showing by the Dawgs there.
Let's go boys. Need a TD for a conidence boost. Cannot let Auburn in it.
 
*whew* yes!


Ok. Nevermind. Flag. ****
 
Georgia thoroughly outcoached Auburn.

LOL at the SEC homer announcers on CBS saying how this Georgia beatdown should not factor in at all in judging Alabama. Of course it should. Auburn handled Bama pretty easily and that was pretty much the only tough game Bama played this year. What helped Bama was everybody declaring Auburn a great team after that win so it wasn't held against Bama at all (as usual).

Now you see Auburn get dominated and you are reminded they are now a 3 loss team. That has to factor into Bama's evaluation.
 
Nice win for Georgia! No way they're not in top 4 after this evening. Still have Clemson 1 and Wisconsin 4 playing this evening.

If Auburn continues to play like they have they will win. I have never seen Alabamas front dominated like it was in the Auburn game. The one TD by Bama was a toss up prayer and other than that only one good drive. I am sure Georgia will be extra motivated, but dont think it will be enough. I still think Wisconsin is being overlooked, but I guess we will find out Saturday. OU can score with anyone, but their defense is shaky. I would not be surprised if TCU upsets them, I think Clemson will destroy Miami and easily make the playoff. They will be a very tough out for anyone. If OSU wins I wouldnt be surprised if they put Bama over OSU in the playoff.

They should put Alabama in if Ohio St. wins.... they have one less loss and play a better schedule. The playoff should have the 4 best teams... conference championships shouldn’t have any bearing on which teams make it.... I know I didn’t hear any Buckeye fans complaining last year when they got in even though they didn’t win... or even play in... a conference championship, and rightfully so. They had one less loss than PSU. Personally, I think ‘Bama should get in even if Wisconsin wins.... they played all bums this year.... with the exception of a mediocre Michigan team.

i agree with you that the Buckeyes are not one of the best 4 in the nation, but OU isn't a bum, einstein.
 
Wisconsin and Ala have a very close strength of schedule and Wisconsin blew almost everyone out. Bama barely escaped against a bad miss st team and got dominated by Auburn. No way that wisconsin does not deserve to get in with a win
 
It would be real easy if the election committee didn't F-up last year. You need to win your conference to get to the playoffs.

Child please.... Wisconsin is getting exposed as we speak. It’s easy to go undefeated when your toughest game is Purdue.
 
Big Ten needs to fix their conference. You can't have Penn State, Michigan, OSU and Michigan State in the same division.

Like i said wisconsin and Ala have similar strength of schedules and depends who you ask, but some think Wis was tougher and they do not have a loss. They rolled Iowa who destroyed OSU and should have beat PSU. Also beat Michigan easily. Ala struggled with the ranked teams on their schedule and miss st severely botched the end of the game and should have took Ala to OT at worst. Ala does not have the resume this year. Auburn getting crushed by georgia also does not help bamas case.
Wisconsin is playing nervous. If they settle down they will fix their problems and make a game of it. If they win they are in. If OSU blows Wisconsin out then they will more than likely get in.
 
If Bama gets in, that means the committee would be excluding both the Pac 12 and the Big 10. Just the areas where about 80% of the population lives.
 
Wisconsin didn't play anyone all year and it's showing tonight. Ohio State does not deserve to get in, so....

I thought Wisonsin would've made their mark tonight. OSU has them.
Still a qtr left. But I see OSU winning this one
 
Wisconsins D ******** the bed. Too many big plays and horrible tackling. I am tired of the announcers riding JTs jock. He has not been that great and accounted for 3 turnovers.
 
I don't know what game those announcers were watching, because by listening to them, you'd think Barrett was playing fantastic. He sucks!!! If not for him, this game would've been a blowout by Ohio State.

Play a better schedule? You've got to be kidding me! Bama has beaten NOBODY! Ohio State's top four wins are ALL better than Bama's best. And for the record, I'm a Buckeyes fan who has stated that OSU did not deserve to get in last year, and putting Bama in this year would be just as stupid.
 
Tough loss for Auburn. GA came to play, and it showed. The polls should never have had Auburn at #2 after last week- should have waited until AFTER the conference championship. I will say that we lost to GA by less points than GA lost to us, so that was a bright spot. Kerryon wasn't at full strength and it showed. I give him props for trying though. Congrats to UGA.

With OSU winning, the top 4 should be OU, Clemson, UGA, and OSU. Just my .02.
 
Bama flat out does not deserve to get it, but they will. They made the same mistake last year putting in an undeserving Ohio State (whom I'm a fan of), but God forbid we don't kiss Bama's ***. They have beaten NOBODY!

It should be very simple this year: The winners of the SEC, Big Ten, ACC, and Big 12 Championship games should get in.

No excuse here from me - but you're absolutely insane if you think that OSU is the better option as the 4th spot this year. Had Bama not been decimated at ILB this year - the teams you say we squeaked by - would have seen the same destruction FSU got in Game 1 (oh, BTW, that's when we lost the top 3 ILB's on our team and it took 6 weeks to get them back on the field)...

So, let the chips land as they may - but, I say line both teams up on the field---Friday night and let the winner go to the dance...
