NCAA GDT: #4 Oklahoma vs. #1 LSU

[Live in the Now]

Memphis lost to a Temple team that just had 55 hung on them by UNC. This ain't it.

Jalen Hurts is out here still trying to play.

LSU over 600 yards of total offense

When has a G5 team been blown out in any of the New Years 6 games? They are 4-3 against P5 teams in those games and the biggest loss is this year's Memphis game, which was a one score game the whole way. The top G5 schools are good enough, it's people like you who fail to see that who are the problem.

I think people are overreacting to the fact Clemson LSU and OSU are abnormally good this year. You won’t often see even one team as good as those 3 in any given year

We've been through all of this before. If they want to get in, they've gotta keep scheduling good teams and beat them and get these prime time games that get the eyes. I know UCF scheduled Stanford this year, and it's not in their control that Stanford was down, just as it's not Boise's fault that Florida State was down, but they gotta figure out how to get better teams to play them or figure out how to get in a better conference, because they do get to the NY6 and show they belong.

The American had 5 teams ranked at some point this year, the league is good. Most of the top teams schedule one or two P5 teams, these games are scheduled years prior so it's not their fault those teams are not good at the time the game is played. Alabama schedules 3 or 4 cupcakes a year and gets a pass for that. You can't force one team to play 4 tough OOC games then give another a pass when they play none. UCF or any other G5 team would love to get into a better conference that's just not possible so not sure why people keep bringing it up.

Alabama does schedule teams, they have USC, Texas, Wisconsin, and Miami all coming up on the schedule.

UCF quite honestly, does hold some appeal to a conference like the Big 12 who once were interested in having a presence in Florida. They're willing to deal with West Virginia being an outsider. The conference UCF is currently in once had Miami, Virginia Tech, Pitt, West Virginia, Syracuse, Louisville, and Rutgers. Your criticisms are valid that the system works against teams like UCF, but they also didn't play their cards right 10-15 years ago when realignment was going on.

I hope Coach O shows up in New Orleans on an airboat
