McAfee is nothing more than a wanna be WWF guy. He goes way over the top on everything, just give some ******* analysis and quit with the hooten and yelling, it's not entertaining. I love Gameday but it seems the more they have McAfee on the less I pay attention.

Yeah, in the TCU/Michigan game it looked like there were two fairly evenly matched teams where one team made too many mistakes and gave away the game. If they don't make those mistakes they probably win but the teams themselves were close enough to make it a contest.
TCU/Georgia looked like FBS vs FCS.
McAfee belong on a podcast or at best a radio show. His appearance and discussion is not cut out for broadcast televesion. He would fit in well with the Barstool guys, which isn't a knock, because I listen to a lot of their stuff. It's just delivered differently to a different audience.
In his first 12 games Duggan threw 3 interceptions. In his final 3 games, he threw 5.
See, I just think TCU beat Michigan fair and square. The teams each had 3 turnovers, and Michigan ended up with more total offense, but also had to possess the ball for +5 more minutes to accumulate those yards. Idk what TCU's deal was last night, but probably a little bit of a let down after the high last week, combined with Georgia being a sleeping giant that Ohio State awakened last week. Perhaps I am oversimplifying, but that's how I see it. TCU certainly doesn't belong on the same field as Georgia though. I do think they are on par with Michigan. Ohio State may have blown them out similarly to how Georgia did. The thing with Michigan is Harbaugh built them specifically to be able to beat Ohio State.
Exactly right. And that is nothing I am interested in.
Several AP voters had Michigan #2 today including Reece Davis
When he sticks to talking football he is extremely knowledgeable, the younger demo loves him.
That is nonsense. I know Ohio State lost to them head to head, but they were a better team all year long aside from that week.Several AP voters had Michigan #2 today including Reece Davis
Did he sleep with your wife or something? The hate for some random guy on a pregame show is really weird, even for you.
I think one of the issues is that some of these Power 5 conferences really have 1 or 2 elite teams and then a bunch of mediocre to bad teams. Michigan only really has two quality wins this year: penn st and ohio st. Otherwise they just beat up on a bunch of bad to mediocre teams. The problem is that we really don't know how these elite teams stack up against each other until we get to the postseason because they don't want to play each other in the regular season (and I don't blame them for that, there's nothing to gain). So if Michigan builds a team singularly focused to beat Ohio State they really only have to beat maybe 1 or 2 other quality teams to back into the playoffs.
FWIW I think Michigan gets spanked by Georgia last night too. Maybe not to the tune of 62-7, but it probably would've been pretty ugly.
This is why I don't watch ESPN at all anymore other than when a game is on. It's not some ethical protest, it's just because I can't stand any of their shows, they've all moved pretty hard in that direction.
Their non con was infamously weak. They deserved to be in based on going undefeated and winning the Big 10, but I still think more than anything, they just executed well when they needed to and won games. Similar to TCU, aside from the whole not winning the Big 12 thing. I will say looking back, I was surprised when they announced TCU to the CFP. I thought the loss to K-State in the Big 12 championship was a nail in the coffin for them. I was happy to see the committee didn't punish them for that.
I get the line of thinking, but to me that opens the door to the narrative that 2 Big 10 teams and 2 SEC teams is the best four team playoff. At least here…even though the best game was Ohio State vs Georgia, you have a situation where Michigan beat Ohio State and TCU beat Michigan. TCU was unquestionably good…they just matched up horribly with Georgia.
Terrible take. Just look at ratings, McAfee brought much needed juice to a dying show.
And Ohio State couldn't come ready to play for a home game that had been dubbed by the media as the ultimate greatest single game in the history of sports and got their doors blown off.
Really this is just a year where one team has this iron clad grip on #1 and nobody else is close.
If TCU wasn't worthy of a 4 team playoff, the only argument left is that it should have been the top 4 SEC teams and nobody from other conferences. I mean that potentially is a valid argument, it makes just as much sense as saying Michigan is better than TCU or Ohio State is some ultimate perfect team after they got stomped at home in a huge hype game.
The Pac and ACC didn't exactly make a case that they needed representation more than Big 12 and Big Ten either.
It'll be very healthy to get a 12 team playoff where the SEC always gets 2-4 teams to reflect its strength, the Big Ten can get 2-3 teams to reflect its ownership of the selection process, and the other conferences just get to play and sometimes win without all this second guessing.
He has zero personality and seems dumb. But hey lets watch this cool interception he had 20 years ago every other week.
And if that's what the people want, then that's what they get. Me? I prefer pxp and color (even if it's repetitive) over the manic sideshow all day, every day.
