I got USC winning outright as the only bet I placed this weekend. 

Notre Dame is very overrated but so is USC.  Tough call this one is coming down to the last second 

Notre Dame can probably have the ball like 75% of this game

Elite offense vs. elite defense. In today's era, the smart bet is usually on offense.

I just think ND is REALLY overrated. We'll see with USC. They have a tough schedule to finish out the season.

I’m just sold on ND being super overrated. I don’t bet big money by any means. I started this season with 50 invested. I’m up to 400 so a 350 gain between CFB and NFL. I usually just drop 25 or 30 on a game im feeling and never against the spread. 30 on the Bears to beat the Commies got me a +90 gain. I didn’t feel conviction in any of the other CFB games this week outside of ND sucking. 
 

The other one I was interested in was I’d pick Oregon to beat Washington outright but there wasn’t much to win when I was looking at it.

The Deion train has been derailed. 

Blowing a 29-0 lead against a 1-4 team is pretty damn embarrassing. Their big win over TCU in week one? Well, TCU is 3-3 now. Colorado barely beat terrible teams in Arizona State and Colorado State.

Yeah, they're still a lot better than they were prior to Deion because at least they're competing now and actually winning some games but the sideshow is gonna lose a lot of steam down the stretch as they get their asses kicked by actually decent teams. The hype train works against you in these situations. The best asset a mediocre team has is the element of surprise. Catch a better team sleeping and overlooking you. That's not gonna happen with Colorado and Deion.

    • 4610 total yards 27 total touchdowns 8 yards per attempt. Completion percentage was usual Cam ie mediocre or below at best at 57.7 and 86.2 passer rating. But the man scored points and moved the ball at will often. Compared to 2652 total yards 21 total touchdowns 6.3 yards per attempt completion % 60.9 82.2 passer rating. Let's just not do things like this. We can acknowledge Bryce improved (from realistically a bottom 5 QB) and hope he can work his way within the top 15 this season without dragging Cam Newton into it and unintentionally diminishing him. That's all I got to say. Carry on.
    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.
