I'm just glad that there is a chance that Auburn will lose to Yale in the Sweet Sixteen. :doublebird:

This pretty much covers it:

According to Next Gen Stats, Surtain was targeted on only 10.9% of his coverage snaps this season -- the lowest rate among 83 cornerbacks with 300 or more coverage snaps.

Surtain also didn't allow receivers to catch many of those targets. He gave up only 306 receiving yards as the nearest defender across 516 coverage snaps, translating to 0.6 yards per coverage snap, which was the second-fewest among the same group of cornerbacks.

And Surtain wasn't just covering anybody. He was going against the best of the best virtually every time out. He guarded the likes of DK Metcalf, Mike Evans, Garrett Wilson, Jakobi Meyers, Jerry Jeudy, Ja’Marr Chase and more -- and Surtain didn't allow more than 50 receiving yards in a single game this season.

If Texas falls off, it won't be until 2026--they still have a weak-arse conference schedule.

I'd put South Carolina in over Bama. Bama may have more talent, but SCar is playing better and more consistently, regardless of the head to head results.

This committee is so frickin dumb they operate with zero consistency whatsoever.

This. If there were any sense to the rankings, people wouldn't be so pissed. Instead, they seem to be ranking like ADHD kids, screaming "SQUIRREL!!!" everytime someone asks about strength of schedule.

Because, seriously, the strength of schedule disparity among the top 12 is ridiculous.

Penn State's main problem is that Franklin chokes under pressure.

Isn't 2 feet past the endzone a bit close to have plants anyway? I remember in our game against you, one of your players getting injured because he ended up in the hedges. and DAMN, your stands are really close to the field.

The plants aren't the problem so much as the metal fence supporting them, but yeah, they're too damn close to the field. They need to move the fence back a couple of feet, but they don't have the space to realistically do so.

One of our WRs (Kevin Brown?) was injured when he hit the fence while sprinting for a pass.

If a player or official doesn’t make a clear and full signal attempt as required by the rules it doesn’t count.

Not a good analogy: If a player makes a gesture that could remotely be construed as a fair catch, it's treated as a fair catch signal.
