    Well, that sucks.

     

    Hope OSU fans aren't too bummed out by their new Coach, OC & QB performance tonight.

     

    I’m not. Tulanes defense looked pretty good and it was closer than the score because of the the calls. Mestemaker also has three years left, he’ll get better, after the adjustment to P4. And upside is Morris should be full time in Stillwater now.

    I’ve never had my team’s result changed bc of this. It’s just crazy in my opinion. For example, let’s say Wingo breaks a screen for 97 yards but gets hit and the ball goes out at the 1. Texas ball at the 1. But if it goes out beyond the cone it completely flips the field? 

    Yes. That’s how the boundary works. I’m good with it.

    How many years of a G5 not winning a first round playoff game before “everyone” rethinks that?

    That's fine if they want to rethink it and by "everyone" I mean the conferences and university administrators who approved this format. I'm just saying the fact that the winner here gets into the playoff isn't controversial, its the rule.

    I know a few of them. It's a really quality fanbase - nice people, pretty artsy students. UVA is brutally hard to get into and Harrisonburg is nicer and easier to get to than Blacksburg so it's a sneaky solid academic student body.

    That said, it's the frat bros in the front at the biggest game in school history, they're gonna be dumb.

    I'm sure there are lots of people like me for whom this is the only exposure to JMU and now view their fanbase as trashy. Frat fucks should have been kicked out immediately.

  5. JMU fans threw snowballs at Troy's punter who was in the back of his end zone and he shanked it. I know the crowd usually gets a warning first but it actually affected the game, I would have penalized them, or at least allowed a rekick. This is literally the first I've ever seen anything JMU other than headlines etc. Their fans must be the Ohio State of the east.

    Hey,  their little 3 game run kept everyone entertained through Thanksgiving. 

    But only the dumb and delusional didn't know they were going to shit the bed at some point in this run. It was inevitable. It's the Jerry Jones Cowboys

    I do appreciate them winning on what was otherwise one of the most boring Thanksgivings at the in laws in a while. My plan was to get drunk and doze off during the KC blowout but we looked good and I was genuinely feeling like this team might be okay. Thanks for that moment, fuck you jerry for the inevitable tonight.

    Lots of people in this thread making lots of assumptions about the future of the CFP. Aligned to those assumptions, they are also making a lot of calls on what Texas should do regarding future scheduling.

    Every year since the CFP has begun, the next year has been extremely different. Assuming that suddenly all aspects are going to remain static moving forward is frankly just naive. 

    Right now eyeball test and w/l column plus bias towards helmetology and the committee members own motivations. 

    Its fucked and ND over Miami and Texas being out despite having head to head vs 2 teams IN screams for masssive changes. Even better, the current system is going to punish the itself for bullshit like G5 team admission, not valuing head to head and other nonsense. 

    Declaring what a university should do about future scheduling with zero clue or insight other than guaranteed change forthcoming is... certainly a take. 

    One change I can see is that all conference champs have to be in the top 25 for the AQ and if a champ ends up unraked (i.e., if Duke were to win), it opens up another at-large spot (which would likely be Miami ironically depsite losing the ACC 2nd place tiebreaker).
