In fact Indiana beat Oregon and ….? That entire league is so overrated 

The bottom of the league is awful, and the overall style of the league is boring.

If that's what you mean by overrated, I agree.

Good news is Ohio State and Georgia should be able to settle it on the field in 6 weeks.  We can pick this debate up then.

Looking forward to seeing it.  I think Ohio State wins by 3 TDs tonight.  Indiana is a great story but they can’t beat this team

The Alabama-Georgia and OSU-Indiana games are pointless.   If I was the coach of any of these teams I'd send my second string out there.  I'm not risking player health or my playbooks for a meaningless game against a team I'm gonna be playing again in a month.

Next step is they eliminate conference championships.

Ok, so who is crowned the Conference Champion then?

'Cos schedules are completely unbalanced - as evidenced by this ACC CG (and fuging Alabama making the SEC game).

The Alabama - Georgia game was essentially an elimination game for Alabama and Georgia's chance to lose a first round bye. 

The OSU - Indiana game is for the number 1 seed and Indiana's first conference championship in school history. 

How are either of those pointless games?

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
