CFP thread

Well credit to Tech's defense, but offensively they're just not a playoff caliber team.

I bet on Oregon last night at -2.5. The line moved to Oregon +1.5 before the game…..had me a bit worried and wondering why the line moved so much so fast.

TT did not impress at all
when you think of how JMU scored on Oregon, this makes TT look pretty pathetic on O
But Oregon did impress me some
and they kept the Bye Jinx going

 

[gtb1943]

well so far these playoffs have been less then memorable.

Just maybe JMU was better than some thought
Just kept stalling in red zone in 1st half

And I suspect the long layoff hurt, just as it has all the others so far.

Now teams with byes and very long layoffs are 0-7

Credit the Ducks (and Canes) though!

 

[atlantacowboy]

Teams with first round byes are now 0-6.

Will Indiana break the curse today?

 

[gtb1943]

Does seem like teams that play recently have a big edge over teams that have weeks off

But then we have seen the same thing in the NFL with teams with a bye getting knocked off by low seeds
happened to us twice

 

[Reality]

Last year all 4 bye teams lost in the second round so it will be interesting to see what happens this year.

So far, it's 1 bye team game and 1 bye team loss.

Now, it's 2 bye team games and 2 bye team losses.

I think Oregon has lots of speed but is soft

This narrative needs to die.

 

[gtb1943]

This narrative needs to die.

maybe; maybe not

 

[Reality]

That's the first points a bye team has scored in the first half so far in three games.

 

[viman96]

That was an odd set of 4th down play calls.

 

[viman96]

Nice pass and catch for TD!

 

[starfan1]

I think the Hoosiers gonna blow out Alabama . I don’t believe the tide should have even been in the playoff

 

[Tabascocat]

Indiana sure can tackle, nothing much YAC given.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Cignetti is just better. Coaching matters and he will make sure they don't choke like the other 6 teams that had the bye week loss

 

[Buzzbait]

Will Indiana break the curse today?

Indiana looks like the real deal.
And thanks for the heads up TC, I didn't know about this thread.

 

[McKDaddy]

Yeah, I'm thinking Geo and Indiana.

I'm hoping Ole Miss ....

"Still every year they are ranked high & praised all season while rarely playing anyone. Look pretty mundane when they finally do"

You do realize they won it all last year?

I have already addressed that.
