IMO, those four are Texas, Georgia, Ohio State and Oregon. Boise State and Arizona State have 0% chances. Penn State is a very good team but they've already had a chance to beat Ohio State and Oregon and they failed on both tries. Notre Dame is also a very good team but a notch below the top...

I get it that to a large extent, TV is the driving force and it pays the bills. But the hosting sites of these games are looking for an economic impact of having thousands of fans come to their city and stay in hotels, eat in their restaurants, etc. When thousands turn in to hundreds as in the...

I saw that too. Pathetic attendance numbers. You get two G5 schools with smaller fan bases and this is what you get. You have to wonder what the Boise Chamber of Commerce thinks about this turnout? Is it worth the price of their promotion?

I think that Polasek was at least party responsible for the drop off in talent at the O-Line position that Barnett has had to deal with.

I read that he had selected Mizzou but hadn't seen any numbers. That's a lot to pay for an unknown commodity. I'm sure we went all in but sometimes you just have to let them go when the bidding gets too high. I would have liked to have had him but I don't think losing out is the end of the world.

Totally agree. In basketball, the 12th best team can get hot in the tournament and make a run towards a title. In football it's completely different. In reality, there are 3-4 teams that have a legitimate shot to win it all. And it's like that every year.

What stuck out to me was that if you are a road underdog, it's a very difficult environment. That was especially true if a team has to travel north into a cold, outdoor stadium. All of the home teams won this weekend and none of the games were particularly close.

I was a student then. As I remember it, it was a fairly close battle between the two and Hayden Fry put both of them in at different times. It was Bohannon's first year as he transferred from a JUCO. I think it was just a situation where Bohannon eventually became QB #1. He was the better...

As with most higher level transfers, it will probably come down to NIL $$.

I'd be up for this as long as I can fit it in with my schedule.

I heard on Cowherd's show today that UNC's NIL fund went from $4 million to $18 million. That is probably part of what attracted him to the job. He brought one of his sidekicks along to be the GM. They will recruit as a gateway to the NFL. With a solid NIL fund and what he has to sell, he...

He just signed two days ago. I have to think that he had some inkling that this was going to happen. And older brother was a walk-on. As we all know by now they can't keep as many players on the roster next year. The staff may very well have had a conversation with him that he was unlikely...

That's what Minnesota did with Max Brosmer. DII QB with four productive years. He was seasoned and ready. Had a pretty solid year this year.

I read today that a kid from Williamsburg, Rayce Heitman, has accepted an offer from Iowa as a preferred walk-on. How is that when all 105 are supposed to be on scholarship?

I heard on a podcast that one of the Nebraska captains had put on social media that this was not the first time they had refused to shake hands after the coin toss. They also did it against Ohio State and USC (which were both road games for them, FWIW). I don't think Ruhle directed his players...

There are some really good perspectives in this thread. I enjoy watching college FB every Saturday, all day, each and every opportunity that I have. I retired a couple of years ago but took a retirement job that has me working some Saturdays. But I managed to attend every home game this year...

He said during his press conference on Tuesday that Stratton was starting and he hoped he could go the entire way. Take if for what it's worth.

Stratton is starting. Sullivan and McNamara are #2 and #3.

Hockenson was better than Fant then and he's better now. He didn't play as much as a result. As for Fidone, I remember we went after him pretty hard but I don't think we were ever that close to getting him. He had a bunch of bluebloods in his top 5 along with Iowa and ended up picking his...

No bowl since about 2015. Big deal in Lincoln, LOL.
