Meh.  I can handle them getting in as ACC champs if Miami loses to Syracuse (which I think likely happens).   

But they ain’t good enough to actually compete with the top of college football.  I actually don’t like the expansion to 12.  It was hard enough to find 4 that belonged in the same tier. 

Nobody in the ACC is good enough to compete in the playoffs. Whoever wins the ACC I feel sorry for because they are going to get exposed big time in the playoffs.

You can't talk Colorado with me after the results. It's a known rule I only talk Colorado during the game. I can't stand people who show up after the fact. 


See I told you so!

I just got here boss.  

and I was at a bar this afternoon/evening in SC.   Clemson on 1 TV.  Gameocks on a couple.  And those were bad games.  Rest SEC.  BYU on a couple.  Colorado wasn’t even on 1 TV.   This is a Panther board.  Hence, SEC and ACC country.  No one here is really talking Colorado unless YOU seek it outside of a random Hunter mention (like Jeanty gets).  Or something in the main forum about our lack of QB.  No one here actually cares about a meh big 12 team.  Wrong part of the country

I hope those boys catch a rest because evidently they've been playing 24/7 365 for the last couple of years.

The hype has already reached it's peak. With Sanders/Hunter gone there isn't much else to talk about. The father/son relationship HC/QB was just the perfect storm and you had the #1 player in the country Hunter. Not hard to see why they were a intesting story.

 

Colorado will be just like every other team starting next season. They did land the #2 overall recruit who is going to replace Shedeur at QB. Not sure he has the personality that will keep them in the spotlight though.

Indiana should be out now.  They have played no one and was blown out by their only decent opponent.  Colorado losing badly to Kansas was expected too.

 

It looks like two teams will sneak in for spots 11 and 12. If Indiana still has the one loss, you have to give it to them over all the 2 loss SEC teams.

I can't imagine the playoffs without Alabama. I think they somehow still make it even with 3 losses.

 

Why?

 

Because the NCAA is shady and will make favors for certain programs that brings them money. Alabama happens to be the cream of the crop. Don't be surprised if they still make the playoffs when all this shakes out.

I disagree those SEC teams resumes are much stronger but the committee could god any way I guess.

Well if they get blown out they may be forced to not make the playoffs lol

    • Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.  
    • Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.
    • Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
