I'm all for bagging on Cignetti and his non-conference schedules, but it is crazy that the media ignores Miami's schedule. They will play ONE ranked team the entire season and that's not until November.
Their schedule is easily the second worst among CFP contenders after Texas Tech.
You're not wrong. The ACC is weak AF and Miami won't play anyone decent until Notre Dame in November.

Notre Dame at 3 is hilarious.
Notre Dame is still feasting on destroying Wisconsin in game 1, though aside from the name we have no idea if they're even decent.
Indiana is still coasting on last year's ranking as their opening slate is as pathetic as last year's (though they are blowing them out like they should).

Well... I chuckled. :cheers:

Oregon is the anomaly. That was a bad loss.
I concur... I'm not convinced they should even be ranked.
That same Okie State team lost the week before 24-10 to TULSA.

Alabama has the following in October through the first week of November:
#2 Georgia
@ #14 Tennessee
#8 Texas A&M
@ #7 LSU
I know Auburn has a pretty brutal one as well.

Somewhat surprised that we jumped four spots.
Georgia Tech may not be world beaters, but it was still one of the better wins this past weekend.
I will add that USC being ranked #11 is a clear indicator that no one knows how good anyone is yet.
They have, to date:
A 16-point win over San Jose State
A 39-point win over Fresno State
A 19-point win over Louisiana
Now, I'm not going to come on here and try and convince folks that Alabama's played some kind of murderer's row to date, but I think we can all agree that some teams ranked well below USC would do the same thing they've done (or better) against that schedule. I'd wager Mississippi State could easily do the same thing to their schedule.

re: How Oklahoma and Oregon make the playoff...

I don't understand why these fanbases are so stressed thinking they have no chance to make the playoff now. All Oklahoma and Oregon have to do is go 8 - 1 in SEC/Big 10 conference play to make the playoff. Unlike the old days that early loss isn't a death sentence. The committee won't punish an SEC or Big 10 team for getting a 3rd loss in their championship game.
Oregon's path to 8-1 is much more feasible than Oklahoma's.
Hope some fantasy football folks grabbed him; I'm sure he's going to get plenty more this season.

Not putting MSU in the top 25 is just garbage
Anyone who watched that game knows we look like a top 25 team
Some voters noticed, just not enough yet.

Excellent take on the situation. We need more levelheaded posters like this on the board. Lol. I agree completely.
I'm not hungry and I *AM* sober, so don't expect these takes all the time. :lol: :cheers:

As bad as it sounds, that line for UGA and Arkansas is probably low
Yeah... I hate to say it, but Arkansas doesn't have the talent to compete, plus they look like they've given up entirely. I have a hard time seeing them mounting much competition against Georgia.
quote:
I'd put the o/u at 2.5 and I would bet the over.
Their remaining schedule has the following:
UTSA
@ Tennessee
Oklahoma (Neutral Site)
Florida
Ole Miss
Mississippi State
@ Missouri
@ LSU
Arkansas
@ Texas A&M
If you think they have three losses left on the schedule, what are they?

And so you were granted mercy.
I've seen Alabama when we're good and I've seen us when we're bad.
I don't think I've ever seen us at "12-point underdog to Vandy" bad though.
NC State fans should be on suicide watch.

LSU’s offense is not scary. Ole Miss secondary is awful. Curious to see what gives.
This, honestly.
I'm curious to see if Leavitt can develop into a good QB, but as of right now LSU's defense is really good and can help overcome his mistakes. The flip side is we know Clemson's offense is hot garbage, and we don't know about La Tech either.
I still think LSU's defense is good despite the competition, but are they "good" or are they "elite" is probably an answer that will take a few more games to answer.

And October is just around the corner. Don’t know if you’ve looked at Auburn’s schedule in October, but to call it brutal would be an understatement…
Damn that’s a rough slate of games.

Clemson has one of the 10 worst P4 offenses, maybe worst 10 in all of FBS. They're a joke.
