A lot of professors would get in hot water for failing a star player and holding them out of a key game.

Tulane/USF/Memphis/Boise/UNLV are at the "playoffs or bust" point right now.
It's not just power programs thinking like this. Tulane went 9-5 last year and the feeling was "mehhh".

That's WR4 and key returner down.

Time for a new DC in Washington.
You need to blitz. Dallas has two WR1s. You're not going to win those matchups.

Lattimore is burned. Again.

That was McNichols!
Also, 10/10 response. Brady says "we scored too fast" - which is probably right but oh well.

Comical DPI miss.
Dallas are being sloppy now.

A TD here before half and the Commanders aren't in that bad of shape considering how shite this half has been.

The offense is going to be a monster when Deebo and Terry get back. That oline is going to be a force now that Cosmi is back.
Bill is getting met in the backfield half of the time when they run the ball. This is against a BAD run defense, too.
The cap space is actually a god send since there are a lot of holes.
I don't know. Paying Terry for him to get injured is really crippling the team. Perhaps injuries are making this look worse than it is.

Commanders may need to blow it up.
The entire roster is really, really bad. Losing nearly everyone 1-on-1 with Dallas.

Why are so many schools firing a coach midseason?
Normally the coaches you want to hire aren't available until January.

Sumrall's Tulane is/recently was bottom 5 in penalties committed.
He's doing well at Tulane, but his teams are sloppy and inefficient. You get away with that in the American, but NOT in the SEC.

The sport is thriving in the sevens format - but participation at all levels in the 15s format has been flagging for a bit.
Professional teams in rugby playing nations aren't doing all that well, either.

USF are slowly taking control.

This is a lot of fun if nothing else.
Hard to tell on the quality when there's a great play followed up by the dumbest shite you could imagine.

This is a breakout year for both of these schools - and it really feels like it on the field.
Both teams are bringing SUPER high energy but are not under control.

I don't understand why big teams suddenly have completely lost the ability to develop an in house QB or other key position.
You have world class facilities and staff - so what gives?

First quarter was played at a fever pitch - the pace of the game was too fast I think.

Would y’all be in favor of a separate CFP for the group of 5?
I think it would be awesome, but are there enough worthy teams to make it worth it ?
A 0.02 chance at a CFP title is more enticing than a 15% chance at a G5 title.
It's a non-starter.

That tie might turn a tiebreaker come seeding time.
They were like 15 yards out. The odds of that are <10%. A FG from that range was a 95% chance. 10 percent of a win share is less than 95 percent of a half share.
Going for it would be the type of decision that costs you a playoff spot.
