I know a lot of people think the Oregon QB is going back to school but I think that would be insane. Him and Mendoza look like the only guys who should go in the 1st this year.

This has got to be the most overhyped preseason QB class of all time.

Agreed. Allar, Nussmeir, and Klubnik all went away

They'll probably still go with a close loss but they better wakeup. If they get blown out they'll be in trouble.

The amount of chaos coming the CFP committee's way is comical.  

Bama loses and gets in as a 3 loss team vs Miami a 2 loss team.  Your truest comp (according to the CFP committee's "rules") of the two is Bama lost badly at FSU and Miami won at FSU.  For the record I think Bama is better than Miami, but historically the CFP has always said like opponents results is a huge factor when there is no head to head.

Bama wins, does the SEC champ jump to 4, over Oregon, Ole Miss and A&M who didn't play today.  But OU is sitting in front of Bama, and OU beat Bama in Tuscaloosa, so OU, who also didn't play today would jump 5 spots including three teams who were ahead of them and also didn't play based on their head to head with Bama, according to the CFP's "rules".

Notre Dame / Miami, if Dook wins you'll have JMU as a 4 TD dog to whoever they play, Tulane will be at least a 13.5 point dog to whoever they play. 

The real travesty in all of this is we won't get to see Diego Pavia and his entire family arrested in a coke binge rage during them losing the Sugar Bowl.

Duke in no way deserves to get in but if they beat the breaks off of Virginia I could see them putting them in above jmu

No chance Dook is in under any scenario.  My mention of them was simply to point out JMU would get in, and that would be ridiculous as JMU would be an underdog to half of any D-1 college football team if not more.

    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
    • it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
