Worst power 5 conference this year for sure. Clemson is good but they haven't been tested at all. Ohio State will clean their clock.The ACC is historically terrible.
I always feel better when the Buckeyes are a bit of a dog rather than the big favorite.Am I the only one who thinks Clemson is going to murder Ohio State?
I’ve been on Ohio State all year but I dunno. Acc may suck but Clemson is something else.I am seeing a lot of pundits pick Clemson. I personally think Ohio State wins. Should be a great game.
Clemson seems to be playing a lot better lately for sure. A win by either team would not surprise me. I guess I just have bad memories of Oregon being favored the past two games against Ohio State in bowl games and getting crushed.I’ve been on Ohio State all year but I dunno. Acc may suck but Clemson is something else.
I did not hear this. InterestingAlso the Justin Fields knee being 80-85% thing seems terrifying. That seems important!
Yea like I said, seems like a really under reported big deal.I did not hear this. Interesting
This is making Clemson such a huge wild card. When a team is piling up big wins against with that schedule, I legitimately can’t tell if they’re UCF/Memphis or if they’re the best team in the country. Personally, I still give them some credit for prior years which has me leaning they might be that good. There is just no way to really know.The ACC is historically terrible.
Well the core just pile drived Alabama 11 months ago so I can tell you they aren’t UCF with a lot of certainty.This is making Clemson such a huge wild card.

The QB made contact with the ref and it was for sure ejection worthy, but the ref could be on WWE with that flop.E. Michigan QB just punched a Pitt player. Tried to punch a 2nd one and got the referee too. Damn
We call it fillerDon't remember them doing so many games on a Friday like this before.
Agreed but they had a more difficult schedule up until that point in the season, no? Something to be said about going up against at least some above average competition before taking on a truly elite team. Add in the break that everyone has to deal with too...Well the core just pile drived Alabama 11 months ago so I can tell you they aren’t UCF with a lot of certainty.
Don't want to see it but I feel the same way.Am I the only one who thinks Clemson is going to murder Ohio State?
They have a lot of experienced players and staff that have won playoff football games.Agreed but they had a more difficult schedule up until that point in the season, no?

OSU 1H might be a good play regardless of how you see the game finishing.
It takes a special kind of smart for a QB to punch an opponent in the helmet with his throwing hand.E. Michigan QB just punched a Pitt player. Tried to punch a 2nd one and got the referee too. Damn
Yea being ready to play OSU isn’t going to be a problem. Preposterous. Bigger question to me is if OSU is ready for that speed. You don’t get that in the big 10.They have a lot of experienced players and staff that have won playoff football games.
SPOILER: They've always been insufferable; you're just now noticing.I don’t remember OSU fans being too terribly obnoxious a few years back, but they’re insufferable right now. Not sure what change happened.
Are you in Arizona?I don’t remember OSU fans being too terribly obnoxious a few years back, but they’re insufferable right now. Not sure what change happened.
Agree in theory, but his career is over anyway.It takes a special kind of smart for a QB to punch an opponent in the helmet with his throwing hand.
Nope, not for this one. Just seeing the articles and listening to the beat writers at the press conference and such.Are you in Arizona?
What? The 3:30 game will be on ABC. Nothing will change except the network the afternoon game is on. Disney already owns all the other broadcast rights to SEC already.Nobody talking about how CBS is likely to exit college football entirely?

There are numerous downstream effects here, mainly that primetime games are going to be limited and SEC games will be relegated to the SECN where they otherwise would be on a network.
I don't really understand how this is not somehow subject to anti-trust type legislation. This is putting a lot of influence with the mouse that otherwise would have been distributed across several players. The fact that CBS simply gets bid out of the building where they have air is just stunning to me. I can see a world where now clearly you won't get the Bama - Chattanoga epic matchups except on PPV, but are likely also to not see the mid-range Florida-Ole Miss etc. etc. as well without a cable package.
That's a pretty big deal though. That effectively removes a game every week from the network schedule, and on the weeks where CBS does the primetime games, two, pushing more games to cable. If you are an SEC fan odds are this will disrupt your Saturday in non-trivial way and could put non SEC games on the 3:30 slot which would usually be a travesty from a SEC fan perspective.What?

It sucks for the ACC/Big 10/ etc who will lose that weekly spot but I don’t see how it affects the casual fan at all. CBS will have an open spot it will be able to fill a lot cheaper as well.That's a pretty big deal though.

Well the deal isn't finalized, but the article would indicate this is not secured at all. There is also limited leverage that the SEC has in this situation which is why they would be likely horrified CBS is exiting in a world where cable subscriptions are in a freefall.It sucks for the ACC/Big 10/ etc who will lose that weekly spot but I don’t see how it affects the casual fan at all.

There is zero chance the SEC does this deal without having the 3:30 spot guaranteed.
They won’t leave cbs unless it’s for the same Broadcast window deal. I guarantee it.Well the deal isn't finalized, but the article would indicate this is not secured at all.

CBS reportedly bid as much as $300 million a year to extend its deal, but balked at making those payments retroactive under the current deal’s remaining four years. Now it will have to promote and build up an asset that, soon enough, it won’t control.
Kids come back with all sorts of swag from bowl game sponsors.Pretty cool but how is this legal? https://twitter.com/espn/status/1210580566388740097
NVM guess they found a loophole.Kids come back with all sorts of swag from bowl game sponsors.
Read on reddit that the bowl sponsors are allowed to give $XXX worth of gifts and the school is allowed to give $XXX worth of gifts. The headphones count against the school's $XXX.Pretty cool but how is this legal? https://twitter.com/espn/status/1210580566388740097

It's part of the team gift package included in the capped amount...LeBron James isn’t a team.
