A few drinks in.....Just came back to say our bowl selection is BS. ![]() ![]() I'm bitter. Also, my earlier prediction before the selection committee came out....I stand by it. Why? Vegas only opened FSU as a 6.5 point favorite. It's not like you are expected to blow them out. They would be 12-0 if Greg Ward didn't sit out 1 game nursing an injury. I guess well see how far off I am. 6.5 points?.....they'll cover that by mid-first quarter and never look back. FSU will be up by 3 TDs or more and then they'll pull the starters. Only thing that will hurt FSU is they really having nothing to "play for". No statements to be made by winning this game. Houston on the other hand..... Gur-ran-teeeeee they would love to put that feather in their cap of chopping down a Goliath like that from a power-5 Isn't U of H 12-2 all time against "Goliath" FSU? ![]() Those games are from the 60's and early 70's I'll be the first one to admit FSU wasn't shit back then.

Man we're getting worked. I've tried to see the bright side all year but we have a serious deficit at QB this year, even with Golson.

I'm glad people are finally coming around to this way of thinking. I have no idea why people want to limit the number of teams in the playoffs to even 8. 32 would be awesome with a 5 game playoff.

Houston has been a legit contender this year, unfortunately they are not a sec/big 10/big 12 team so they don't get the coverage or the respect in the polls.

FSU needs to just keep throwing the short passes underneath until Houston stops it.

The only "limiting" I've seen is that some folks think 8 would be enough. But guess what? 8 > 4, so that's in fact arguing for MORE games. Hell, the entirety of the media - the very 1st year of the playoffs, thought it should be expanded to 8 or 16. ESPN showed polling data from coaches/AD and sports media, EVERYONE wanted it expanded past 4. Because 4 is retarded and still just a popularity contest. Hell, that was the whole damn narrative from everyone. That 4 isnt enough. Your whole "im the only one that ever wanted expanded" is one of the more insane things I've seen in this thread. Literally EVERYONE wanted more than 4 since its very inception. Hell, google "college football 4 enough 2014" and the hundreds of thousands of hits make it pretty clear you're full of crap. |

We will never see 32 much less 16. 8 is probably the best we can hope for truthfully. |

More than 16 teams would be foolishness. If you look at the differences in talent and production, there is a huge gap between the top tier and the rest. Look at last year's B1!G championship: there is no question that Wisconsin was clearly the best in the West, yet the Badgers had no chance against OSU, and were crushed. That kind of gap exists in all the major conferences. There is no realistic expectation or chance for #30 to beat #3, and I would argue that we don't need to see it played out on the field. #16 and #1 is a significantly different quality matchup. Speaking as a fan of the #26 or something team, I say no thank you. Everybody saw that game back in September, and it went as expected - a blowout. I'd be satisfied with 8 and happy with 16. There's no need for more.

Just caught up live. FSU hasn't looked worse all year. O-line can't block and SMAG can't make a decision. Being outplayed and out coached You think there's a possibility the players and coaches overlooked Houston kind of like you did when the bowl matchups were announced? You were pissed and said y'all (quote): "got fucked" (unquote) I think this is a definitely possibility, I was a afraid something like this would happen when we played NIU a few years back. Bowl games are a weird animal. Some teams come to play and some come for the festivities. Smaller schools will usually show up to play when they get a chance to prove something vs the "big boys" The only teams not dealing with this dynamic will be the 4 playoff teams. I won't take away from Houston, they look,very good and game planned well. We didn't come to play and it shows. Pathetic showing by both players and coaches. Like I said before, bowl games are just a different animal. I watch them every year and a lot of teams just don't show up. Whether its ring rust from the layoff, too much partying, premier players not wanting to get injured and screw up their draft chance or just a lot of nothing to play for really in most cases. I can tell you that when I was an 18-20 yo college guy that if I had went to the Bahamas Bowl and been wined and dined at celebrity level status that football would have been the farthest thing from my mind. |

I'd be ok foregoing conference Champinship games to expand the playoffs. View Quote We're not friends. ![]() ![]() Conference champs are way too big of a part of college ball to ever get rid of. It's also an integral shit talking bullet point. ![]() FYI - for those interested starting around page 200 of last years thread... EVERYONE is talking about more than 4 teams for the final... Yet, conspicously the tinfoiled texan isnt prominently in that discussion. Instead it's conspiracy talk of the SEC not letting certain teams play Texas in a bowl game (pg 209). ![]() ![]() |

I'm surprised Clemson is instigating so much smack talk. They have the scoreboard, they really don't need to say anything. Whatever though, hopefully OU wins. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Couldn't be more disgusted by the playing and play calling.
It's one thing to lose in a dog fight, it's another to just screw up everything and look lost and basically play like you don't care and gave up in the first quarter. |
