Durham looks so boring.

Tell that to all the transplants that continue to move here. Please tell them that, for the love of GOD tell them that. I'm tired of this shitt. Please tell everyone you see how you think Durham is boring. Because there is way too many million dollar apartments going up downtown for me to make sense of it. LET THE WORLD KNOW DURHAM IS BORING.

USC's defense will keep Colorado in it. 

Their defense allowed 28 points to a left for dead Arizona State team. ASU only lost by 14. 

Riley's teams are lazy and have no spark vs opponents their anticipated to destroy/beat. I expect this game to be close because of Riley's ineptitude to motivate his players. 

I think Riley might be .500 vs the spread in his entire tenure at this point. 

Unimpressive Riley is unimpressive.

Oh man, Duke's QB got hurt after the ND TD? I turned it off when ND scored. I fuging hate duke but that fuging sucks if that's what happened. I don't allow my hate for programs bleed over into hating individual kids.

Except for Gerald Henderson. Fug that guy.

Can't hate something that's been irrelevant for over 30 years. You just feel sorry for them. 

If you hate Duke football fans (because most of them don't exist), you got serious issues.

OSU tend to be overrated for the CFP and should just stick to the BCS. Not sure why they keep getting the best 5 star receiving recruits to commit.

Because Hartline is a stud recruiter and WRs who go to OSU tend to show out and go to the NFL?  Also weird to say Notre Dame is legit and then dismiss OSU who beat them, plus pushed Georgia to the brink last year, lol

The only people who care about the spread are gamblers. To everyone else it's all Ws and Ls.

For the NFL, sure. But if you're getting by, by the skin of your teeth in College. It shows your team isn't complete and has issues on either side of the ball, and that's why USC dropped 3 spots last weekend and will drop again today in the Polls. You can't expect to win by 21 an then win by 7 and it be okay in CFB. Unless you're Georgia, which has the benefit of the doubt (back to back Natty's). Riley and USC in general do not. 

Here to teach you about CFB. You're welcome.

What is the typical spread for a Riley coached team? It's probably huge. The spread is Vegas trying to get equal money on both sides of the ledger. The whole point is for you to go .500 against the spread. That's just odds makers doing their job really well. This isn't difficult stuff to understand, man.

You're trying to act like the smartest guy in the room but coming off as anything but that in your attempts.

Ha. Well. Enlighten me. If the spread just mattered in Vegas, and well that's it. Why does USC drop in the polls? They're winning and that's all that matters according to you. 

And yeah, I've been watching CFB a lot longer than you. I know how this works, if you're anticipated to beat the hell out of a team and you have a "struggle win" that's what us CFB lifers call basically struggling vs a very meager opponent. The polls and CFP people notice. That's why Riley has this stigma. 

But according to you, spreads are just for Vegas and bettors, right?

Since you're a UNC fan, did you forget how UNC had that "struggle win" vs App State earlier this year and fell in the polls? Because the spread was over 14 points for UNC that game and they eeked out a win vs a very, very, meager opponent.

Only affects early season really. If USC wins every game by 3 but they go undefeated they are still going to the college football playoff.

It'll effect them in the CFP rankings as well. You can't continue to struggle win vs meager opponents and not get docked for it. 

Plus, USC will lose to Oregon, Washington, hell maybe even another team because of that atrocious defense. Their schedule down the road is brutal.

      I am also intrigued by Mohammad. Could be another story. Seems like he has the talent but seems to have had some issues with coaching schemes/changes,  some attitude and work ethic issues? Hopefully his being home can get him focused. Here is what I read ( all second hand to me ) :    1- He has all the skills but was nonexistent under two different coaching staffs. He butted heads and was benched under Jimbo (for wearing sleeves under his uniform after the coaching staff told him not to 🙄). Then under the new staff, he rarely saw the field – he had just 55 yards last season. When he saw the field, he either made the most impressive play of the game or would get an unsportsmanlike penalty. Just a bizarre case because he has the talent.     2 -Aggie here to provide some insight. As the other poster mentioned, Moose had a weird time at A&M and it didn't help that Jimbo's offense was painful and wide receivers never seemed to excel. His third year was promising but he was also competing with Evan Stewart, Noah Thomas, and Chase Lane who I'm pretty sure were all 5*s. Also Ainais Smith and Devon achane ran majority of the offense. That said, going into his last year with Jimbo, a couple guys like Lane and Achane left, and most Ags thought this would be the year Moose really steps up. Unfortunately as the other poster mentions, he disappeared into misconduct and coaching change.

      I'm more impressed with the UDFA that the guys they have drafted in the first the last 2 years. A whole lot of prove it is still needed before any improvement should be talked about seriously.
