If you eliminate the top 4 favorites Oregon Texas Ohio State Georgia that leaves 8 possible dark horse. I’ll go Penn State because of their schedule.

🙄

Like to see someone like SMU, Indiana, or ASU win the whole thing (still can’t pull for Boise in any situation). But fear we’ll likely see Georgia against Oregon or Texas in the final.

Sort of like March Madness. I hope to see a small humble mid-major win the title but we inevitably see teams like Duke, Carolina, Ashley Judd U, Kansas, etc.…[Read more]

ASU will not win it. Let’s be honest, they’re just not up there with the big boys talent-wise. I think my Dark Horse is probably Tennessee or Notre Dame. They have the actual blue chip talent to do it.

Interesting especially in baseball or basketball. Kid serves a mission, plays JUCO for two years, then transfers to a D1 program for four years. Graduates with a masters degree as a 27 year old man. Largely debt free.

Dillingham has said it doesn’t matter and they’re still welcome to finish out the season with the team if they so choose.

Has to be.

A real darkhorse?

Well that eliminates ASU, Boise St, Indiana, SMU.

They don’t have the depth to win 3+ games in a row vs blue bloods.

The real darkhorse?

Penn St. They have the easiest path. SMU then Boise? Give me a break. Then they get Georgia after ND gives them a tough game?

But the winner will be Georgia, Texas or Oregon/Ohio S…[Read more]

I didn’t know it was this weekend. I assumed it would start over NYE weekend.

Huh. Guess I don’t care that much.

IMO Wayshawn will announce tomorrow or Saturday at the latest. And again in my opinion he’s a heavy Utah lean. 🤩

Until every school has the same available path to the playoff it will always be an Invitational and only slightly more legitimate than any previous version

Yeah, this has class-action written all over it.

Was a long wait to get to a legitimate playoff. Yeah I’ll absolutely be watching.

Oregon is the obvious pick, but I agree with you on a darkhorse pick. However, I heard that ASU lost a bunch of kids to the portal.

Hard to see ASU as a potential NC pick. I believe that team has plenty of holes which, given the amount of time between the end of the regular season and their actual game, opponents with superior personnel can exploit. If, for example, the Sun Devils draw Texas as their next opponent, I can easily see a blowout going Texas’ way.

I agree. Also, for me, I’m just damned tired of the Dolphins putting out a substandard product season after season. I have better things to do than devote time to a team that’s a perennial underachiever.

NFL has been so bad this year. The games I have watched have been terrible.
I do like teasing my in laws about the Niners. Man that last game was such a dud. Drops and lazy football all around.

That would be my dark horse pick as well.

Absolutely no judgement from me. I just don’t find it as interesting without Utah anymore. I have also felt like the quality of football has declined. You could see it in the NFL for a few years now but it has finally arrived in the college ranks.
