Bingo.
The sec has the right to STFU…..

 

[PIBuckeye]

I have to laugh how sec teams don’t want to be in the ccg…. Lol

Well it is OSU and I have lived in Michigan for 50 years.

SC over Indiana is a ridiculous argument - Indiana will be 11-1, SC 9-3. You can argue SC deserves a spot but not over Indiana

This.

IU just doing whatever they want offensively.

Cannot rip you as when you wrote this I was thinking the same.

If we'd like to come out next week and not fall behind early AND put pressure on QB on their opening drive on D I'd be OK with it.

I want some revenge next week for ann arbor cheating in '21 and '22. Wonder if JH added Connor Stallions to his coaching staff?

It's tye argument every year. The SEC beats each other to death. Adding Texas and OU only made it that much tougher. It's really hard to compare playing an SEC schedule to a normal league. Take Indiana. Post their schedule vs, say, Florida's. Tell me Indiana goes 10-1 vs that shit

I don't think they go 10-1 with UF schedule.....but going into season played both teams from title game AND OSU. Not their fault UW and UM shit the bed.

I have no doubt IF we were able Day will run that score up to 100 if he could.

But it's UM so even though a middling team it's no lock......even though with our talent it should be.

UM week!!!

 

[dtgold88]

Yep.....and guessing we will hear how PSU close win over MN shows how weak the BIG is, but Ole Miss losing to UF shows how strong SEC is.

I always get a little nervous for The Game. Just glad it's in Columbus this year. Would love to be there next Saturday. It's gonna be a great atmosphere. Actually one of the few things I miss about Ohio are Saturday's at The Shoe. Went to multiple games every year from '84 until '05.

My son and I have each not seen us beat UM while at OSU (he is now a senior). If we lose there is zero chance he's going to OSU for grad school.

INDIANA played nobody Out of Conference.
The teams they played, including a 4 win FCS team, are (11-26) and played all at Indiana.

That is why they are getting grief.
They actually control that part and chose this cupcake, and scheduled nobodies.

Conference play is what it is .....they dont really get a say in that part of it.
But the OOC might be the worst ever for any Power 4 team this century.

The committee should send a strong message about weak as fuck OOC scheduling.
Maybe not drop them entirely, but make them sweat it a bit.

That will encourage more Michigan vs Texas, Alabama vs Wisconsin, LSU v USC etc

I mean, it was an out of nowhere season for them and doubt Indiana thought this season was going anywhere when the OOC was likely created 5-10 years ago.

But I agree for teams who do want to be considered for the CFP in general they need to schedule at least 1 tough OOC opponent.

Missouri actually did think they should be a CFP contender this year and their schedule isn't much better - Murray State, BC, Buffalo and at UMass.........same with Ole Miss and for them was Furman, Middle Tennessee, Ga Southern and @ wake Forest........How about TN with Chattanooga, Kent State, UTEP and NC State. ......How about Oklahoma which was Temple, Houston, Tulane and Maine (sure IU the worst you've seen?). Can make case IU 3 are worse but their 4th is a BIG school.

Regardless, I definitely would like to see more big OOC games across CFB.

I don't see the sense of it tbh at least not for SEC and BIG schools. Those conferences are loaded so there is good chance you can have 2 losses in conference play so why should i book a difficult OOC game when we know 3 losses make it difficult to get in if you don't win your conference?

However for ACC & Big 12 schools I do think it would make sense
