Purdue constantly going to Jones the entire season is pretty much what we did with X except they don't constantly jump off sides and they don't waste 40% of their plays running up the middle for negative yardage.

I agree, to be eligible for the Playoff every team should have to play at least 10 P5 games.
I'd prefer it being 9 conference plus 1 P5 non-con. It seems that would benefit developing conference rivalries in 16+ team conferences. But if a conference would prefer to give schools scheduling flexibility, I would have no problem with 8 conference +2 non-con P5.
My take on Alabama vs Texas is that Texas tends to be "up" for OU and name teams. Their massive egos aren't as big of a negative factor in games like that.
I think Alabama is better than Texas, but I don't think that close result is a fluke for Texas or a horrible result for Alabama. I think Texas would beat a lot of marquee name teams at home this year and it's a positive Alabama got that road win.
Michigan is really getting to the QB yet they are still managing to get some balls downfield and big plays.
I feel like when we had that kind of pressure we just completely abandoned even trying the deep ball.
It was a tough call. I might still be going back and forth.
I'm not even sure who I want to win. I think Michigan is less vulnerable to TCU if they come off a win (if everyone is right and TCU is still a lock for #3).
They've had a rough night. The running into the kicker penalty was pretty bad too, if that wasn't roughing I don't know what is.
Nah it wasn't a tough call. Live maybe, but on replay he comes across the facemask, doesn't grab it or turn it. Took him down awkwardly by the neck.
Really tough to tell if punter was trying to become a runner. I can't pretend to know how that works.
It looked to me like he was moving him by the facemask (twice) without ever actually grabbing the facemask.
Does that mean no facemask? It was unique that way.
I didn't understand Klatt on that one, I don't get why it matters what it looked like when he was definitely punting.
I think he was saying at some point if they try to evade they become a runner and that play was on the edge of that.
I'd certainly be shocked if ISU players hit a punter in that play and drew no flag.
Welp good night folks. Lackluster night with the late games. Oh well, now onto the big show tomorrow to find out who the hell is right on these boards on whether or not TCU or Bama get in. At least we all don't have to debate anymore.
Interested to see where they slot Clemson, K State and Utah as they all won conference championships, which they give serious weight to. I think we may be shocked to see where those three climb to. I think they all might jump Tennessee and Penn State. And don't be surprised, if they do keep TCU in the top-four, that they slot Clemson over Bama because of the dominating ACC Championship. The committee always likes to do at least a couple of head-scratching things. Doesn't necessarily have to be in the top-four.
