A rephrasing of Jimmy Johnson's famous line: "It's about the Jimmy's and Joe's, not the X's and O's".

If you have better players than the opposition, especially at this level, it doesn't matter how good their play calling is. 

Yep. The truly elite teams at the college level can beat the good teams with their backups nine times out of ten. There's just a huge overall talent gap.

Last post on this junk but this talk of Notre Dame joining the ACC is beyond ridiculous.  This will never happen period.  Them being an independent should probably be banned but they are in a perfect situation.  No other team can situate themselves to make the playoffs like Notre Dame.  It’s a different playing field

And let me predict it…they will make the playoff this year

There should be a stipulation that if you don't qualify for a conference championship game then by rule you can't qualify for the playoffs.

What’s ironic is Matt Rhule’s QB situation at Nebraska is almost identical to his QB situation at Baylor.

In Rhule’s first year at Baylor he picked up dual threat quarterback, Anu Solomon, from Arizona. Solomon only completed 43% of his passes in the two games he played; one was a loss to Liberty, the other, a loss to UTSA. After a few more swing and misses, Rhule eventually found Charlie Brewer who was a more prototypical pocket passing QB.

So what does Rhule do this time… he goes to the transfer portal and picks up a triple option QB in Jeff Sims.

Genius

    • This won't be a trap game for them. I worry more for the next time we face Atlanta. That's a death trap game if we aren't careful.
    • Luckily, we've got more games ahead to watch and see what happens. Maybe he keeps growing his game, maybe we see that he's topped out when we hit stiffer competition. Or maybe he flames out against a team he should well be able to beat like the Jets this weekend. I really can't tell where all of this will end. I can say, though, there's no reason to hit the kid at the moment. Let him roll for as long as he can.  Heck, Sam Darnold is setting the league on fire right now, along with Baker Mayfield and Daniel Jones. Examples of guys mired in bad coaching on bad teams (sometimes our own) that hit their stride just as a team did. Maybe we're about to get lucky.  I do know one thing. The biggest change in a winning Bryce and a losing Bryce is that when he plays fearlessly, he is a hell of a competitor. When he gets scared, and he has so many times, it all just falls apart for him and no team can save him. Bravery makes the difference and it comes from believing in not just himself, but his line, his receivers, his running back and the play calling. Just like most young QBs. And quite a few of the old ones. Rodgers couldn't make it in the chaos of the Jets situation. He can in Pittsburgh, so it seems. 
    • That’s what I thought too. Maybe I interpreted it wrong. I was considering maybe taking a last minute trip but I think I’ll pass
