I don't know Nick Saban.....We may need to create a special playoff for Alabama and the SEC teams...they don't belong in this big boy football.
Oregon held TTU offense to zero points. Ant TTU's offense was no joke. JMU scored 30 something on Oregon. Most all year. That JMU team would beat this Bama team. Bama is the one that did not belong in the playoffs.

Bama is doing all they can to put the Hoosier Haters to shame tonight.

Since they expanded the playoffs there have been more bad (blowout) games then there have been memorable ones. Yet let’s expand this thing even more. And if they snub the G5’s there needs to be a serious lawsuit filed.

You think jmu woulda beat Bama? 😂. Who belonged in over them? And Texas tech woulda crushed jmu too. Jmu scored on Oregon’s third stringers

I figured Indiana would win, but the Hoosiers gave the Tide a Sunday School lesson they won’t soon forget.

A good g5 team could hang.....it is the reason for the game. If the rules are made and they take the top 5 champions.....absolutely a g5 belongs. I personally think this years g5 reps were the worse g5 teams in a while. I hope we expand to 24

Is it the echo chamber you want?! You have a ton of hot takes all the time then get very angry when anyone doesn’t lock step agree with you. Disagreement is fine. Personal
Pointless insults are where the rub lies. I don’t do that to you. I respond to your posts. You seem to take exception to that then insult me.

Multiple JMU transfers making big plays for Indiana today. I guess the red jersey makes them more worthy than the purple one.

Herby was still taking shots at them for being less than top notch players, but they are functioning as a team. He's still a cupcake.

On top of his baseline level of douchebaggery, Herbie’s allowing residual butthurt from the Buckeyes’ loss to color his takes on everything.

Over the past few years, I have not watched complete games of the CFB playoffs as it seemed it was pretty much the same teams (just change out one or two). I have actually watched more non App. St. college football over past week than in past few years. Opportunities for teams not named Ohio State, Gawgia and Bama having a chance to win. All are out of the CFB and some newbies have a chance to win. It has really enjoyable to watch.

Glad to see it as well. Cignetti is the best coach in college football, including Bill B. He is spanking power programs with 2 and 3 star players and it is great for the sport. Cignetti is proving again that stars don't matter.

I wouldn’t include Belichick in a list of top college coaches.

And that football is a team sport. The blue bloods are going to have a much harder time winning national championships because they actually have to win them now instead of living on the talking heads impression.

Verifiably false. JMU scored more points against the Duck’s 1s than TTU did. That vaunted Red Raiders’ offense laid an egg for the entirety of the game. The Dukes managed to put up at least 13 against Oregon starters, unless you believe Coach Lanning was playing 3rd stringers in the 1st half and the opening drive of the 2nd half. There were Duck starters still on the field for JMU’s second 3rd quarter TD.

No need in shaming, or outright lying about JMU’s performance in Eugene because the Red Raiders crapped the bed on a neutral field.

That is true. I would take Cignetti over Bill to run a NFL team as well though. That’s why I included him. Shoot, Cignetti gets more out of less than Saban ever did either. Saban just bought the top talent every year. Indiana is loaded with 2 and 3 star players.

Ok. If you think that game was ever in doubt jmu appreciates your support. Oregon was up 34-3 and 48-13 at different points and it was 48-20 to start the 4th quarter. I’d counter you are being a little dishonest about how that Game went. TT played terribly I agree. They still handle jmu easily. Their defense was every bit as good as Oregon’s which put it in cruise control
