CFP Championship - Frawgs vs Dawgs

[AlaCyclone]

I hope the Rams and Chargers Draftniks are watching this game for future players!

 

[GTO]

This is like a Georgia exhibition game at this point.

Brock Purdy mention

I missed it! What did they say?

 

[Remo Gaggi]

Herbstreit just dropped a Purdy reference

So in a 12 team playoff, Georgia, Bama and Tennessee all would be in. LSU would likely make it without the A&M loss. Sign me up.

You mean Georgia’s worst game vs OSUs best game of the season? And Georgia still won

Nah, Georgia was far worse at Missouri this year. Even their game against Kent State was close for 3 quarters.

 

[CYedUp]

This defense is a joke. Not even trying

There are 3 teams that have elite talent all over the field, Alabama, Ohio State and Georgia. All three schools' backups are better than most schools are starting. Look at the recruiting rankings year after year, those three teams are at the top. Luckily for most weeks, they do not play up to their potential week to week, but when they show up, like tonight, they are unstoppable.

That Bennett would have a chance in Shanahan offense, like Purdy.

This is just added proof that playoff expansion really wasn't necessary. The drop-off between the top couple teams and the rest of the upper tier is usually pretty big. Even in the 4 team format there have been a lot of lopsided games in either the semifinals or the final.

You could make an argument that the 4 team playoff formula contributed to that lack of parity though, and that a 12 team playoff might provide a small amount of relief to that since more programs will have a realistic shot

What a difference a week makes. I think it was in the fourth quarter last week against OSU when @isufbcurt wondered why they weren’t targeting Bowers.

Yeah they were saving his energy for this ass kicking - Woof woof woof woof

Bennett is showing great accuracy on some of these throws tonight.

Georgia beating the #12 seed Coastal Carolina by 70 in a couple years will be fun.

In a 12-team playoff, if it's this year's #1 Georgia, #12 Coastal would need to win twice to get to that matchup, defeating #5 then #4. If CC gets there and loses 73-3, so be it.

 

[7Got6]

What would the score be if Bennett and Bowers were hurt and couldn't play?

I was wondering what the score would be if Georgia only had 3 downs and TCU had 5.

More shots at your NC, more money to go around. The talent will spread out naturally.

 

[ClonerJams]

5 stars vs mostly 3 stars with a few 4 stars sprinkled in. Michigan has some talent, but not like this. TCU wasn't ready for it.

 

[Remo Gaggi]

Time to call off the dogs.

 

[isufbcurt]

Is that Phil McConkey's son playing WR for UGA?

No relation

 

[State2015]

The playoff expanding should (hopefully) level the playing field a bit. When you give conference champs a home game in the first round that changes things immensely. The 2nd and 3rd teams in the SEC coming up to Ames, Manhattan, Madison, Ann Arbor Columbus, etc in December really gives an advantage to the B10/12 champ. Won’t just be track meets inside nice air conditioned domes

At least this is what I’m hoping…

 

[BCClone]

What makes college football good. Some teams match well against others, consistent performance by a team is rare. Georgia was looking past OSU and OSU held it close. Georgia brought it tonight.
