2021 College football thread - Auburn’s gotta Auburn. (1 Viewer)

I think UGA beats them easy but I think they may beat OSU easy too.  

31-0?  Or maybe 52-24?

No chance a 2-loss Ohio State screws an undefeated Cincy after getting mauled by Michigan like that.

Notre Dame gets in before Ohio State.  Not sure how they stay in the conversation with Notre Dame around.

ABC really has to stop aiming their camera at banana boy.

Jameson Williams ejected for targeting and now Brian Robinson down with an ankle injury

I'm not sure exactly how Cincy will get screwed, but of course, they will.

It makes me feel good to see some think Cincy will get it in.  Kind of like when you see an older kid that believes in Santa Claus. 

It's nice to know that sort of optimism still exists and that not everybody is a beat down curmudgeon. 

Unfortunately, though, Santy Claus ain't coming down the chimney and Cincy aint' getting in the Playoff.

Iron bowl getting interesting

So OSU drops to #7 and needs help from 3 teams to get in?  ND loss tonight, Auburn beating Alabama, Oklahoma St loss and/or Cincinati losing.  Not sure if they jump Michigan if they lose.  Long shot, but not out.   Michigan should jump to #2 or #3.  

 

[MAC_32]

Hutchinson is a beast.

Hutch for Heisman

 

[Moe.]

Only way Cincy doesn’t make it is if they lose to Houston next week. Not even the tiniest bit of doubt in my mind.

They need OU to win this week and OkState to win next week. If either OU or OkState wins out they’ll be above Ohio State for sure.

Ohio State is done unless things get bonkers

Even if Bama loses tonight, I still think they’d have a better shot as a two loss team if they beat Georgia next week. I see no way Ohio State has any chance now. 

Big XII still has a shot of having a 1 loss champ too even if Oklahoma State loses tonight. 

 

[The Man With No Name]

Cincy in the final 4 cfb wow.   

IF they beat Houston

 

[Moe.]

Amongst my friends and family, even the biggest homers think OU is going to get waxed tonight. I’ll be very surprised if we get to 17 pts. 

 

[culdeus]

Everyone is aware bama is getting beat right?  Like right now?

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Georgia's in no matter what.

Alabama, Cincy and Michigan are in if they win their title games.  An Alabama win over UGA would be the best win on anyone's resume and they'd get in with 2 losses.

Notre Dame and Oklahoma State are probably next up if any of the three teams ahead of them lose and they win out.  And I think OK State should jump ND if they beat OU and then Baylor.

IMO Ohio State only gets in with utter chaos ahead of them now.  Like at least three of the five teams ahead of them (other than UGA) lose.

And just botched a FGA. 

 

[Moe.]

Who is the best team UGA has played this year? I’m not trying to throw shade, the eye test is good enough for me with them, but I’m not convinced they’re going to waltz in the semis. 

 

[WDIK2]

Auburn got hosed on a big play.

Don’t know but if Lawrence was still at Clemson, they beat Georgia no problem in the first week.

None of the wins look awesome in hindsight (Clemson, Arkansas, Kentucky all top ~10 when they played), but the point differential is 488-83.  That defense is GOAT level insane. 

Unless they turn the ball over a bunch I don't think anyone can score on them.

Their defense is pretty much all the eye test you need.

Definitely a generational defense. Looking through it UK and Tennessee are probably the two best offenses, and they didn’t do much against UGA. I think they’ll beat Bama but I am interested to see if Bama can move the ball at all. I hope they get Cincy as I think that’ll be the best offense in the playoff, but Cincy looks like the 3 seed to me. One-loss Big 12 or ND at 4, which will not be worth watching. 

 

[Moe.]

Yeah, like I said I wasn’t being critical of them and I agree they’re the best team by a decent margin. 

 

[TLEF316]

So....someone paid off the Bama offense, right?

 

[Moe.]

Take a look at the Air Force - UNLV box score. Air Force won by 34 and didn’t throw the ball once.

Ducks drawing up a reprise of the Stanford collapse.

Should change their name to Ground Force.

Their wr look so ordinary.

The refs are trying to change that. That holding call on Auburn's 42 yard screen was just horrible.  But still 10-0.

They’ve been so loaded at that position for so long, it’s crazy to see. 

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Serious question: What is the rationale for Alabama being a top-four team, as it stands today? A home win over Ole Miss?

 

[Jayded]

So with Stroud looking good but tOSU losing and now Bryce Young looking especially average, who wins the friggin Heisman?

ive never seen a year with so much blah to choose from. Usually we have 3-5 really solid candidates and this year feels like there really aren’t any.

Recent history.  This year, not so much.

I want to agree with you, but everybody is so meh this year. Who would you have had above them coming into this week?

 

[AAABatteries]

I will happily take Bama +8

Can I still get this?

 

[Moe.]

It’s almost like it’s better if you just come up with a system where you can decide it with actual football games instead of a debate contest. Weird. 

 

[Tom Servo]

I dunno. Auburn DC dialed up some serious witchcraft today. 

 

[Tom Servo]

Whisky and Minny tied at 13. Iowa is anxious.

Still Stroud.  His "bad game" was nearly 400 and 2 tds.  Wasn't his fault the D couldn't stop the run.

 

[jon_mx]

Auburn is winning with a QB who is literally lame.  He can barely walk. 

 

[Insein]

This has got to be Harbaughs last chance at a title. If he doesn't get it this year, he never will. 

 

[facook]

Jeez, when will Bama EVER catch a break?!

 

[Moe.]

I didn’t like that roughing the passer call on Bama 

 

[Leroy Hoard]

+800 on Auburn.

 

[Tom Servo]

QB was pretty much plowed into the ground.

That's what I saw too

 

[Penguin]

And just like that.....

 

[Jayded]

4th and a yard to stay alive for a title and you blow it. Not sure there’s anything Bama can do now, even next week.
