9:35pm and we are halfway through the 2nd quarter. I feel like I'm double my age making these complaints, but good grief. -
Can't make a four-point mistake like that if you're Purdue. We'll take it though.
-
This offense is definitely back to a two-page play book. Page one: run up the middle, run to the left, run to the right Page two: pass, pass, pass
-
These slow starts may come back to bite them eventually.
-
It didn't look like they were surprised by the fake, they just gained enough yards on it.
-
No kidding. Four minutes commercial breaks, six minute reviews. 55 minutes to play 10 minutes. Ahhhh, and the lovely commercial-touchback-commercial sequence.
-
That was a stupid review. Didn't they used to put a timer on the NFL reviews? Should be 2:00 from the time they put on a head seat. If no decision when the time expires, the audio cuts out and the call stands. I'll take that though.
-
If the defense can win this game, I think they should let them. Looks like that's their plan so far.
-
Yeah, this game is for nothing except the B1G Championship and an undefeated record (small things). If M wins, they're probably the #2 seed. If M loses, they're probably the #2 seed.
-
I think they could pass them, I just don't think they should. If I was going to argue an extreme, I would say that USC should stay because they played last night and Ohio State didn't. Or that Clemson or Kansas State should go, because they're playing and Ohio State isn't. I'm not going that far because I think that's dumb. USC had their chance - so did Clemson and Kansas State. I do think it's a fair take though that TCU's overall body of work is worthy of the #3 seed. I also think it's fair to say that if you're going to make the playoff as the one team that didn't win your division and didn't have to play a 13th game, you should play the #1 seed in the semifinal and prove your worth.
-
I guess I would counter and ask if Ohio State can really sit at home uninvited and rise two spots. TCU will have more wins, a better SOS, a better SOR, and played 13 games. If M was to rematch OSU, I feel like they'd prefer to have a buffer game to see if they change anything coming out of the Michigan loss. I also think Ohio State is a better team than TCU and Michigan should prefer to play TCU.
-
I think they were caught looking ahead last week and now they don't see a point.
-
I tried finding a picture of the other angle on Twitter without success... I'm sure videos will be uploaded later. I thought it looked clear that he was lying on top of bodies when he started extending the ball.
-
This is just one of the angles. Another showed he was lying on top of a pile as he extended the ball. It's plausible that if they match up those camera angles to tell when the ball comes out that it would stand as called... I thought he was definitely in though.
-
I could be wrong, but I really don't see a scenario where Michigan and Ohio State rematch in the semifinal game. In eight years, there has never been a semifinal rematch. There has never been a two-loss playoff team. I don't think either of those will change if they can help it. It's also worth noting that Warde Manual is on the CFP Committee, and while he is "recused" from ranking Michigan, he's not recused from ranking Ohio State or TCU... I think he will pound the table to avoid an immediate rematch. The Kansas State AD is also on the committee, and while "recused" from ranking Kansas State, he probably won't have an issue joining that side of the argument for TCU to stay at #3.
-
LSU is dumb, dumb, dumb... Also Brian Kelly killed a kid.
-
I also maintain that I don't understand how the 3rd and Goal play was not overturned.
-
I think a three-point TCU loss, to a top 7 or 8 team, in OT, in a game that Ohio State did not have to play, will keep TCU at #3* *if keeping them at #3 is convenient for the committee.
-
And then there were two undefeated.
-
Wow. I thought he was definitely in on that 3rd and Goal.
-
Are these announcers even watching the game? I think that's a clear TD.
-
Heading to OT. This is TCU's second OT game this year, beat OK State 43-40 in 2OT back in October.
-
For #3 or to make it? I think they've done enough for #3.
-
Turning into a good game... If they punch this in, bet the house on a QB Draw for the two point conversion. never mind....
-
I get it's 'right' for a 12-1 TCU to make the playoff over 10-2 Alabama... I still think 10-2 Bama wins 8/10 matchups against TCU head-to-head.
