NCAA GDT: Week 4

[spintheblackcircle]

If tOSU, Michigan St or Penn St go unbeaten in conference play, they will get in

 

[Canes]

The Big Ten isn't looking good, but if Penn State wins the conference with no more than 1 loss, they will get into the playoff.

I would love to see Alabama or UGA hang half a hundred on them.

if any b1g school goes unbeaten in conf play they will go in. the only one with an OOC loss right now is OSU.

ND is floating out there too. If they get past #8 Cincinnati next week their arguably toughest game left is at home vs. No. Carolina. But really other than Alabama and maybe Georgia, nobody looks unbeatable.

They can get in with 1 loss.

WTF has gone on with Clemson? I'm not totally shocked given how they've looked and I know they lost a lot of guys, but they had the #1 recruit at QB who looked great last year and put 40 on Notre Dame, even with a substandard running game they should not be that impotent on offense.

This could be the year we finally get a 2-loss team in the playoff. The committee at this point will only do that if they have to.

Their O line is made of swiss cheese ultra thin sliced. Oicantspell this isn't fast enough at reading the D yet to compensate

Clemson had an unbelievable run dominating the ACC during Watson and Lawrence eras. Eventually they had to rebuild. Looked vulnerable against Ohio State last year, Georgia exposed them and NC State delivered them the first loss to an unranked team since 2017

Ohio State is also rebuilding too, it's just that these programs are going through growing pains. And then Alabama just reloads without any period of adaptation whatsoever. Bryce Young just comes in and balls out against Miami.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Buckeyes are baaaad

I would love to see Alabama or UGA hang half a hundred on them.

Hah! Bring them on.

by the way: West Virginia will beat Oklahoma tonight.

Clifford has been pretty impressive at QB for PSU. Been reluctant to say that for many PSU QB's as PSU had the same problem Wisconsin and many Big Ten teams had where they weren't focused on the passing game but rather the old school mentality of grinding it down.

I saw on Gameday that Penn State recently hired a new offensive coordinator who was supposed to open up the offense. I'm a believer that the Big Ten should stop playing 13-9 boring ass football and enter the 21st century. To Ohio State's credit, they are literally the only one with an explosive offense for years. Day and Urb innovated offense there.

penn states offense under was moorhead was built on the big play. pretty much only last year was bad over the past 5-6 years.

Garrett Wilson just embarrassed a young man



Henderson may lead the NCAA in rushing this year.

I get being a transition year when you break in a new QB. But to not get too recruits for the OL on a regular basis along with other position groups when you can move guys around. Guys start off either at G, move to RT, then into LT. If you want to ensure experience at the key position.

Buckeyes are baaaad

allow me to step back a bit from that one. After a really bad play by the new QB and then letting Akron march down the field......I was a bit nervous. But things seem to be what they should now. New QB looks good after that first error.

 

[GKJ]

Spencer Rattler getting booed off the field with chants of 'we want caleb'

 

[spintheblackcircle]

McCord can zip it for the Buckeyes. Not sure he's mobile at all.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Let's go Mountaineers and Volunteers!

 

[GKJ]

West Virginia up 10-7 at half.

Defense is still winning this season

 

[DaveG]

About as good a first half as WVU could have asked for. Gave up an INT but that effectively ended up being a punt, but so far not losing the turnover battle and effectively neutralized their offense so far.

Would like to see more Garrett Greene in the 2nd half, OU is able to key in on Leddie Brown a bit too much for my liking when it's Doege under center.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Arkansas is freaking legit. Top 10 team in the nation in my opinion. Tremendous, athletic defense and a more versatile offense than you'd think. They may not beat Georgia next week but they're certainly going to give them hell.

Someone from the ACC is going to get into a high-end bowl game and exactly none of those teams deserve it.

PSU has had some consistency issues over the past few years but they're more athletic than Wisconsin and certainly throw the ball better as well.

 

[Rossi Rat]

Make no mistake about it, PSU being in the fold is no fluke. They are one of college football’s blue bloods. Cliff won’t blow you away, but this program doesn’t need an elite QB to be a playoff threat every year.

That’s the talent, the defense, the coaching… anyone check out Franklin’s 2022 recruiting class? Wooooooooo boy.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

lol how did I miss Minnesota losing to Bowling Green. PJ Fleck the bald fraud.

I still can't get over that. You let a THIRTY-FREAKING-ONE POINT underdog come into your stadium on Homecoming and do that to you?

Jesus. Has there been a worse loss this year so far?
