Except for Bama.

Uga may be decent. I still have doubts.

Pedo st as well. But that's it. I feel like these are the only real contenders right now. And let me stress right now. Things may change quick

2. Georgia

who cares about the rest

1. Bama
2. UGA
3. PSU
4. Ohio State

and who cares

Man what a wild week

Still not convinced that Penn State is that good. Hopefully they get stunned by Michigan next week.

Same.

Losing 2 of their next 3 would not surprise me in the slightest. Seems more likely than them winning all 3.

They will be at least touchdown dogs to OSU in 2 weeks

But TD favorites against everyone else on their schedule.

Kinda hard to parse where to put PSU/OSU as it feels like PSU is more accomplished & they don't have a loss, but OSU's loss was quality-ish. OSU has also spend the entire rest of their season blowing the doors off of really bad teams. PSU has the close call @ Iowa (but weird things happen there at night) and their only common opponent is Indiana, with PSU handling them easily while OSU struggled on that opening Thursday.

I'm pretty sure OSU is the better team by a decent margin, and Sagarin & F/+ both love the Buckeyes. But PSU is slightly more accomplished at this point.

Hey on another note what's the best source for YPP data, both for the whole season and for individual games?

Doesn't matter. They both suck. Bama and Clempson will play for the title. Existence is pointless

Bama sure, but Clemson just lost to Syracuse this weekend. One more loss and they won't even be in the playoffs.

the rest after 4 is interesting bc someone is going to make the playoff from the 5-12 group

1 Alabama (1)
2 Georgia (3) Let's just recognize they FAILED to cover the spread.
3 TCU (4) Quietly suffocated Missouri State to death.
4 Clemson (2) They may need their qb to be healthy.
5 Penn St (7) No I do not "like" them but someone has to go here.
6 Ohio St (8) What a bunch of losers they've beaten.
7 Virginia Tech (10)
8 Miami FL (13)
9 Washington (5) Still just a conference road loss.
10 USC (12)
11 Washington St (6) Haven't even heard anyone blame the air quality yet.
12 Michigan (9) Vaunted defense couldn't stop Indiana from coming back to tie?
13 Oklahoma (11) That's 3 straight "we kinda suck" games against middlings.
14 Notre Dame (14)
15 Oklahoma St (16)
16 UCF (19)
17 Auburn (15) Not too big of a fall because I didn't have them hugely overrated to start with.
18 Stanford (22)
19 South Florida (20)
20 Michigan State (23)
21 NC State (24)
22 Wisconsin (21) If I'm reading this correctly, Purdue is the best team they'll play until Michigan in week...12?
23 San Diego St (17) Go **** yourself, San Diego.
24 Texas A&M - I know, I know, I'm surprised too but they did come back against Bama and Virginia's numbers are sooo *bad*!
25 Utah (25)


West Virginia
LSU
Virginia?

1. Bama

Everybody else sucks.

OP got it right.

Sure, Georgia and TCU and Penn State and even Clempson and Ohio State CAN beat anyone else. They just aren't going to beat Bama and they might get beat by anyone.

I guess where Im at a loss is why the SEC ADs havent all got together and pooled money for an offer ($75 mil+) for Saban to GTFO of the sport and never come back

Or maybe they have already and he turned it down

Except for 1. Bama

Lol

Saban has a real knack for losing massive amounts of money on real estate deals with boosters (even at former schools) then going back and demanding to be made whole. So in two years he'd be back demanding $150 mil, then two years later $300 mil, etc. He's exactly like my ex.

Struggled against lolZou.

Georgia literally doesn’t matter.

Winning by 25 is struggling? Lol

UCF is a playoff team. They're ****ing sick

I'm so pumped for them. This has been a fun year following UCF. A lot of good people still down there doing alot right. I'm also taking a lot of credit for them being good.

I remember the conversations about investing into Georgia and how the offensive line coaches weren't crazy about recruiting for big guys in Georgia. We went into, historically, how well DL played and were coached at the high school level in Georgia and that Georgia is underrepresented with offensive line play and we didn't need to create a pipeline to the midwest and north east for the OL players because we had plenty in the SE that weren't being recruited highly enough.

Feels good.

lol auguy makes an op saying everyone sucks because his own team lost to lsu

angerpush getting a little chippy now that his team appears to be actually good for once

7 teams in the top 25 lost this weekend. But sure make that assumption.
