OT: All Purpose NCAA Football Thread

[LegionOfDoom91]

Ideally you'd like to do what Oklahoma did years ago with Landry Jones & Blake Bell. Bell would come in down in the red zone at times & obvious running situations. Buechele would be Jones & Swoopes would be Bell.

Don't remind me. I played college fantasy football that year and Bell absolutely killed Jones' value. He scored all the TDs.

Are they going to review every play at the goaline?

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Swoopes demolished the camera guy.

ND DBs getting toasted tonight.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Brian Kelly is the king of mismanaging the QB position. He's done it his entire tenure at ND so far.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Both coaching staffs are botching it with the QB situations. Trying too much to make a two QB system work & it just rarely ever happens.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

I'd love a Texas upset here.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Wheels starting to fall off.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Are you ******** me?

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Might actually have been a good thing. Field goal wins it now.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Or not

 

[Cody Webster]

Texas!!!!!!!

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I just can't believe Brian Kelly wouldn't just fully commit to Kizer being the starter. He's clearly the best they have at the position & quite possibly their best player in general.

 

[FLYguy3911]

ND had a chance to step on Texas' throat and then had an awful 3 and out.

 

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Love to see ND lose. The yearly hype is too much.

yeah their fan base can be pretty unbearable.
love it when they lose.

Problem is they'll probably only fall a couple spots even though Texas was unranked. I'd be shocked if they were lower that 20. ND in the playoffs is the NCAA's wet dream.

They still have Michigan State, Duke, Stanford, Miami, Virginia Tech, & USC left on the schedule. I think Stanford's pretty much a lock for a loss for them at this point. They're defense looked horrible last night. At two losses it's going to be tough to get in & anymore than that you're done. I think they end up 9-3 or 8-4 this year when all is said & done which isn't going to cut it for the playoffs.

Yeah but you know they'll be in the conversation all year and their losses will be downplayed. I can already hear it tomorrow "well it was on the road and it was OT so you can't fault them too much." ND ranked 14th, Texas ranked 18th.

Meh I think you're overreacting here. They get Michigan State for their third game & get Stanford in the middle of their schedule. They drop those two games they're playoff hopes are shot. It doesn't matter how good or bad the losses are perceived at that point.

They were 10-2 last year with close losses to Clemson & Stanford. They didn't get in but granted the Stanford loss was the last game of the year. They get USC to close out the year this year.

 

[Halladay]

Preseason rankings are dumb though, there should be no rankings until the first week of October. I have no clue if Texas is good or not based on the fact they beat a preseason ranked Notre Dame team.

I'm probably overreacting but I just hate ND so much and a lot of my friends are inexplicably fans and I have to hear about how THIS is the year every year. And for some reason the Big Ten preview magazine I got the last two years has an in depth look at Notre Dame.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

This looks like it's going to get ugly. Ole Miss getting good pressure rushing four. Francois doesn't look ready for this.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Aw man that would have been so much funnier if didn't go out of bounds.
