Which Lose Turns the Season in a Dumpster Fire?

[mcnabb7542]

In all fairness to every other CFB football program this year they're all waaaaay overrated. There's only 1 elite program & 1 elite HC (who just happens to be 1 helluva dancer)...

Saban and Bama!

Yes - all 125 teams are overrated and no one deserves to be in the top 10.

Texas will be lucky to win 8 games, they won't be winning 10.

Really? Their schedule is crazy easy. Especially now that they know they can score on the goal line.

Even though you are claiming potato salad, regardless of how bad the rest of them get this season, they won't be anywhere close to the dumpster fire Baylor already IS and WILL BE.

Saban and Bama!

Who, what, where, when & why? According to a very special meeeechegan fan Saban is a shitty CFB coach because he didn't win a Natty while @ Michigan State. Took over a totally loaded LSU program, failed in the NFL & is only having his current coaching success because he's the best CFB coach in the best conference in the country. Overwhelming advantage: Jim Harbaugh.

Damn right!

Exactly.

 

[MAIZEandBLUE09]

Let's bet then since you're so sure they won't be winning 8 games

No, I'm sure Texas won't be winning 10.

They're still a bad team with a bad coach.

Too early to tell.

 

[Brasky]

I think Texas drops a few games FOR SURE. "lucky" to win 8 games? I dunno about that. I think 8 games is right on the money.

When your vision is as selective as that of M&B, you don't need actual facts in order to draw conclusions.

Not to go off topic, but that hit on Hunter Jr was total bullshit. By definition that was targeting. He should have been ejected.

Yes, it was.

What I don't get about it is that (unless the rule changed in the off season) all targeting calls are reviewed. So when there is any doubt, you call it. If the call is incorrect, you waive it off on review. That was a horrendous miss by the officials. And in the end, the hit resulted in exactly the kind of injury the rule is intended to mitigate.

And, for me, worse than the failure to call the penalty, is the failure to call out a player who clearly was willing to injure another player. That is total BS.

Threw up a thread on it with a well written article on the subject.

Threw up

Okay.

I don't see four sure losses. I know they'll "fart a blank" somewhere along the line (usually K-State or I-State), but I don't see them losing more than a couple. The RRSO is a toss up IMHO. The only road game that might be a problem is at Okie Lite. They get TCU, WVU and Baylor at home. None of the rest are anywhere near as good as Notre Dame was. I see them splitting with the Okie schools, losing one along the way but sweeping the home games.

For me it is the OU lose, because if they win out, and Houston wins out, does the non P-5 team get in the playoffs???
