I said that going into the season. The twelve team field is gonna put an end to meaningful out of conference games other than long standing rivalry games and it might just take a couple of ill-timed losses in those costing playoff spots to bring some of those to an end.

UNC football has always been toast, sometimes it just takes a few games to accept it but the inevitable always happens. That's my experience as a lifelong Heels fan. If App has known this NIL stuff was coming I don't think they would've made the jump up to D1. I'd rather contend for championships at the D1AA level than be an also ran hoping to land in a toilet bowl in D1. They just don't have the resources to compete in the NIL era.

I just don't think anybody cared enough to make it. I pinned yours.

If a win over a five loss team is the crown jewel of your argument then you don't have an argument.

What??? One ranked opponent and they lost that game by 35. LOL

Yeah, I'm for leaving out the bubble teams with very obvious flaws. Milroe is just too limited as a passer to win three games against playoff caliber teams. Just not gonna happen. I'd love to see Cam Ward against a playoff caliber team but let's be real, Miami's D is gonna give up 40+ and they're gonna lose so why bother?

It tells you that they were highly thought of going into the season because they didn't beat a single ranked football team.

Zero ranked opponents. Two unranked losses. No argument for them to get in.

They should ditch preseason and early season polls. Honestly the first poll should come out mid-season. Too many highly ranked teams stay there no matter what. Texas has zero wins this year over ranked opponents so why were they ranked #2? What did they do to earn that other than being a unanimous top 5 preseason team?

14 point spread today. You almost never see spreads that big in the NFL. Every other spread today is under 7 points.

Anyone but Oregon. Phil Knight hasn't even been shy about saying he's given them a blank check to buy football championships. fug that.

ND in the playoffs has historically meant ND getting their asses beat down. I wouldn't be so sure of a comfortable ND win. LOL

Hell, the same arguments are used for bubble teams in a 64 team field in the basketball tournament. There are always going to be teams barely in and barely out and folks squabbling over them.

Missing the playoffs because of a last second 55 yard FG would be rough but you gotta play tighter D than that. You gave them an opportunity and they capitalized.

Oof. That's why you don't play Charmin soft at the end of the game. LOL

Penn State just has no answers defensively. I'm switching over to Clemson/SMU.

Just who he is.

That's a 7 point swing. Hit that layup throw and you probably have 7 and instead your kicker misses and you have 0.

Allar just isn't a good passer. Great play design and you have your elite TE streaking down the field wide open and you just flat out miss. Brutal.

This Penn State TE is the real deal. Dude looks like a top tier NFL TE prospect.

Penn State has made a game of this again. Can't let Oregon find the endzone here at the end of the half though

This Penn State TE like baby Gronk. Dude runs people over and just puts them in the damn dirt.

Is he gonna come to the combine sporting a teased up fro and hiding under a hoodie all weekend? If not, 5'9" 180.

These night games are just not looking like they're going to be competitive.

SMU gonna get blown out. Maybe they should've spent more time prepping and less time bitching about having to risk their playoff spot by playing. It is what it is.
