Oregon got the best draw.

Warm up vs JMU then play a rusty Raider Rash whom I think can beat then get the revenge game with IU.

Staying out of the UGA/OSU bracket is a much easier path.

IU has to first get past the winner of OU / Bama.

Now let's think about this for a second. Indiana probably has about the same talent as James Madison.

Now before you laugh, they only have seven four stars and the rest of their team is three stars.

I'm sure James Madison also has mostly 3 stars.

Now we can argue well the three stars in Indiana are really four or five stars and the ones at James Madison are probably three stars or maybe even less.

Maybe the scouting has been wrong. Maybe they have a great offensive or defensive coordinator just like Indiana.

Everybody said it was far fetched for Indiana to do what they did, and they're making the same mistake possibly with James Madison.

Really think about it I'm not saying James Madison is good I have no idea I don't know anything about their team. Is it possible that they're three stars are maybe better than people think?

It is known. It is also known that their defense and special teams are better both Bama & OU's offense and special teams.

I trust IU's offense to post enough points to keep either of y'all at bay.

I doubt that, they might get a couple 3 stars a year, but I would guess Indiana has many more.

Thanks.

You know, it seems close, but it's actually not all that close. My prediction was more than 3 TD win and that spread is less than 3TD win. Almost like a couple of scores difference.

Funny how the spread works.

Ummm, no. that is not "known".

It won't be "known" unless they play head to head.

Until then, totally subjective.

Have you seen Alabama's place kicking woes? Did you not watch us tear you apart in special teams?

It is absolutely known both of y'all have horrible offenses

The IU defense is better as a unit relative to their peers than either of your offenses that is a structural fact.

If they can secure the ball and not lose the turnover battle they will win. They may because of the 25 days off be rusty and turn the ball over in which case either of you can beat them. At that point with the #1 overall seed losing in the first round the CFP morons will absolutely have to get it through their numb skulls that the bye is actually not good for the team unless they are injury riddled.

Pissed me off when aggy got clowned by a 9-3 team that barely beat Miss State and Kentucky. I knew that was going to send us into the top 4 with a very long, potentially momentum killing , bye. Shelf life is a thing.

Dang I wanted the #5 spot.

There are roughly 2000 3 star recruits each cycle. All 2000 of them aren’t of equal talent. A better indicator would be to look at the offer sheets of the rosters. A 3 star with a bunch of P4 offers is probably a bit better than a 3 star with only G5 offers
