NCAA CFB - Week 12 Random Thoughts

[Golden Taters]

Win or lose, we still booze.

The reason ND isn't in the BCS title game right now?

They lost to FSU last season.

By far, the chief reason the Irish are No. 3 and not No. 2 is because they lost 18-14 to Florida State in the 2011 Champs Sports Bowl. Expectations for the Seminoles’ 2012 season soared as a result of their come-from-behind win. Notre Dame’s dropped.



As such, FSU started the year ranked No. 7 in the coaches’ poll. Notre Dame was No. 24.

The problem for Brian Kelly was that Kansas State checked in at No. 21. Oregon was No. 5. The Irish were effectively boxed out before the season began – Death by Athlon, if you will. They’ve remained behind both the Ducks and Wildcats every single week.

Who's more deserving of No. 2 isn't the point here. Just know that if Notre Dame held off FSU last year, the Irish would have started the season well ahead of Kansas State in the preseason polls, and due to their computer strength would today have a clear path to play for the title this year.

Lol @ college football as usual for there "title game" and whoever they pick

Anyway, the top SEC teams would beat down any of these other top teams in a title game, would be a complete mauling, SEC speed > These other guys

Very true. Oregon seems like a very slow and plodding team.

Troll moar.

When the last time the SEC didn't win the national title? Wasn't it when undefeated Auburn didn't get in? I'd have to look it up though

The PAC 10 always had fast offensive players through the years, plus those defenses have never been good, SEC football is at a higher level when it comes down to it, ND, K State, lol, these teams would get bounced playing Bama and LSU

I agree that the SEC is still the best, but I think part of their defensive prowess is due to their conservative coaching and lack of good QBs throughout the conference. Urban Meyer destroyed the SEC by running a spread offense, yet other SEC coaches haven't really followed his example.

Vince Young vs USC.

2005.

The PAC 10 always had fast offensive players through the years,

And the last time the SEC played a Pac 10 the game came down to a last second FG. Truly dominating.

Again.

Troll moar.

The winner of the SEC title game should be automatically in the title game until someone can beat them

6 straight years they won it and undefeated Auburn was kept out before that, they have proven there dominance over the years, those are facts

You can't tell me that 1 of the 2 best teams in the country right now isn't the top team from the SEC

Yes I can. Watch.

The two best teams in the country are Oregon and K-State.

I think Alabama and Oregon are the two "best" teams in the nation. If Georgia wins the SEC, or if somehow Texas A&M ends up in the SEC title game and defeats Georgia, I would have a VERY difficult time saying they are 1 of the 2 best teams in the country.

 

[Liquidrob]

Until someone can beat the best team in the SEC in the title game I can't agree, I have 6 straight NC games to prove that and an undefeated team before that was kept out

SEC winner in the title game, pick whoever you want to challenge them

 

[FirstTimer]

SEC=

Got it.

Thanks. Move along.

 

[Liquidrob]

Thanks you Senser for your replies, I apperiaciate it

 

[Jayrock]

Liquidrob, you're a fucking retard.

Do you even watch college football?

Keep to the WWE, bro, you know nothing about how "good" the SEC is (even though they aren't the best conference in college football this year).

And becoming the first conference to have 6 teams in the BCS top 12 at one time.
