NCAA GDT: Week 9: Battle for the B1G East

[Cody Webster]

So if Penn St wins out, and Michigan beats Ohio State and they all finish with one loss, who advances?

Penn State I believe. The first tiebreaker for three teams is overall record I think.

If Penn State loses another one though I think Ohio State might win the tiebreaker? Maybe Michigan? Not sure

Michigan still has a chance to win the big but it’s pretty unlikely

Don't think Michigan will beat Wisconsin.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Wazzu's defense is opportunistic but they got away with one there.

 

[Cody Webster]

Don't think Michigan will beat Wisconsin.

Which would mean OSU advances

 

[HoseEmDown]

That wasn't the CFP.

Also last year in the playoffs, OSU got stomped 31-0 so you can't say only non P5 schools can get wrecked if they make the playoffs.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Don't think Michigan will beat Wisconsin.

Agreed. Wisconsin isn't pretty but they play sound football.

No but they'd rather have a big time P5 with one loss over an undefeated non-P5. That's reality.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

If J.T. Barrett stays hot, they should be the favorite.

 

[HisIceness]

I know Miami won today but geez, I didn't realize they almost gave today away, won on a fumble inside their own territory with UNC putting together a nice drive. They've got Virginia Tech and Notre Dame coming up (both at home), we will see if the 'Canes are for real or not. Might also see College Gameday there next week or the one after.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

And? I gave him props. Don't be insecure.

Insecure?

You are just wrong. It's ok.

 

[HoseEmDown]

For the regular bowls sure but the playoffs wants the 4 best teams. If Miami makes the playoffs they aren't gonna travel any better than a non P5 school if they get sent to the Rose bowl, maybe they draw a few more eyes to the TV for ratings but that's it. Some schools will travel well no matter where the game is but that shouldn't determine who makes the playoffs.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

O

Insecure?

He's playing well. We'll just ignore the last two years though.

The CFP is about money. They want match ups that sell.

 

[snowden]

Seriously, how the f*** is there no goal line view in USC-ASU game.

 

[HoseEmDown]

You think a matchup that has TCU, Washington State or Oklahoma State is a huge seller?

UCF has never lost to Alabama, you could sell that leading up to the game.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

Why'd you pick those 3 teams instead of Clemson, Oklahoma or Ohio State? UCF vs Alabama would be amusing for a half.

 

[NotABadPeriod]

Michigan already has 2 losses (Michigan St, Penn St), so they're out anyways in that scenario.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

These two late games are PAD as f***.

 

[GKJ]

Wazzu gets whacked again but at least they put up a bunch of points this time.

Sun Devils about to get in.

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Agreed. Wisconsin isn't pretty but they play sound football.

They haven’t played anybody. They are good but I wouldn’t write that as a Wisconsin win so soon unless peters starts sucking

 

[HoseEmDown]

Because those are P5 schools too. What your saying is that there should be a seperate playoff for the blue bloods of college?

They said UCF had no chance against Alabama when the played the last time too.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

If Michigan had any idea how to utilize its explosive players i'd be inclined to agree.

UCF would get crushed.

 

[HoseEmDown]

UCF would get crushed.

Maybe but so would a lot of others in the top 15. We have the best offense in the country, if anything we would give Alabama's defense a good challenge to stop us. Stopping them might be a problem but we are good against the run and I'm not sold on Hurts as a passer to shred us.
