NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

[dtgold88]

I doubt it. You need to realize what the committee thinks of Penn state as is. They look at them as a weak team and got beaten by the only good team they faced. Assuming Notre dame wins this one, they will give Notre Dame, Tennessee, and Ohio State a home game before they give Penn state if they lose to Oregon. Put it this way they don’t look at Penn State much differently than they do Indiana. Teams who got to 10/11 wins by avoiding most of the big dogs in conference play

I don’t think anyone think they are beating Oregon on a neutral field. We can solve this by making a friendly bet since you feel very strongly that they still are hosting a game if they lose to Oregon next week. Let’s make it happen

OK? But they may have given those teams home games if PSU stayed home.

I never said they WILL host a game if they lose to Oregon but they certainly could.....there's also that crazy notion they could win and get a bye. You made it sound like there's just no way losing the game doesn't hurt them and of course ignored the notion they could win.

Do you really think this is a game PSU would like to sit out given the choice? are there some instances that might be the case? Yeah, a team with 2 losses might not want to risk a loss knocking them out altogether.

Just going to address the first part of your comment. Penn State entered this week as number 4. They were not going to drop far enough to play on the road

 

[thunderc]

Thought USC was going to tie it

 

[The Q]

Notre Dame deserves to lose. Your run offense is bread and butter but now you want to try and pass like Leonard is Cam Ward

He’s 17 of 23 and you act like it’s 43

Losing love was a huge blow as well.

But I agree they need to lean on his legs even more with love out

I mean if they sat out the game or lose they’re in a similar spot as one of the top non conference champs

But they have a chance to get a bye and arguable the top seed with a w

Miami may get left out

 

[The Q]

Miami may get left out

They control their destiny though don’t they?

They’ll still face smu next week?

 

[bksballer89]

Idiotic decision to kick it when your defense is ass. Had to go for it on 4th and goal inside the 10

No Clemson vs SMU now

 

[shopson67]

CUSE!

 

[The Q]

No Clemson vs SMU now

Wow….

Yeah they’re on a tough spot

But they’re still only 2 losses

 

[bksballer89]

CUSE!

Easiest bet of the day. Cuse being 11.5 home dogs vs this Miami team was disrespectful

 

[shopson67]

That 21-0 start certainly tempered my expectations.

 

[bksballer89]

Wow….

Yeah they’re on a tough spot

Their losses aren’t bad. Tech and Cuse are decent teams but what is their best win? Ville?

 

[shopson67]

When it came down to winning time, they just ran out the clock without a pass. I wouldn't have bet on a successful no pass drive.

 

[msgkings322]

Notre Dame deserves to lose. Your run offense is bread and butter but now you want to try and pass like Leonard is Cam Ward

And they win by 3 TDs and score 49 points

 

[bksballer89]

USC QB turned stupid which I greatly appreciate

 

[The Q]

Yeah I’m curious how many 3 loss teams they’re putting ahead of them

 

[msgkings322]

Well they did get a garbage time TD so only lost by 2 TDs

ND offense looks a lot better than your comment said

 

[bksballer89]

Bama, Ole Miss, and Georgia
