I think 12 or 16 is plenty of teams in the CFB playoff but after pseudo careful consideration I guarantee the powers that be will follow the $$$$$$$$$$$$ while at the same time claiming the “student athletes” are their main concern.

They'll expand to 24 and naturally a large amount of morons in the country will use that number to somehow justify the entire SEC being in the playoff.

this makes me feel like I would be worried as an ole Miss fan.

For sure.  Betting markets have shifted pretty hard to LSU since yesterday afternoon, but it’s still not a lock.

Quite the saga!

This makes me continue to really appreciate IU and Cig resolving our coach speculation situation in a matter of days with a revised contract and clear video message to the fans and broader CFB world (recruits).  A chef’s kiss of institutional alignment here at IU!

I wonder if we will see conferences drop a championship game in the future to avoid damaging their seeding or inclusion in the CFP? Maybe just go back to way it use to be, best conference records complete with tie breakers.

Maybe.  Theoretically if the committee looked at resume instead of idk vibes it could be a way for a team to play themselves into the CFP.

It will depend on which decision makes the most money.

Mizzou up 3-0 on Okie early.  Funny if the Sooners lose this.

Hypothetically had they scored more points they would have won. So that’s basically a win. In fact they weren’t even challenged that game

Julian Sayin without his NFL WRs is looking more average by the minute.  In his last 9 quarters he has 2 TDs and a pick.  0 rushing TDs as well.

OU, Oregon, and BYU losses today are all realistic and would make for some fun chaos.

I would love to play USC for the Big Ten championship

Rutgers keeps shooting for the stars on 3rd and short.

That would take a Ohio St. loss.  That ain't happening today...is it?

[Hovadipo]

Brent Venables is kinda like if Tom Allen drank Busch Light. 

[Brass Cannon]

Sayin is so good they take him out for a 4th down.  
 

 

[southsidehoosier]

Rutgers killing themselves with dumb penalty on 4th down 

OSU rushing game is non existent today

Dumb play of the day goes to Rutger’s DL lineman.

[BtownStrength]

Missouri has blown several opportunities. Not the way to win on the road 

[TTT]

First half Ohio State looks very average but over the years how many times do they look so average but are so difficult to beat….And if they are losing or in a close game they almost always can shift into a higher gear (from their ability, size strength and speed) to pull out a win or win going away.

Which leads to the question….

IU not always even close to perfect but overall has played close to their ability or even overachieved sometimes during the season… when OSU tries to shift into a higher gear can IU match it in a head to head matchup?  (Ohio State among a few others have that gear)…..However, IU is currently demonstrating this as well.
