2022-2023 NCAA Football Thread

The winner over the weekend? USC.

Man Tennessee went out big. And the others that won... not that impressive. Maybe just give all the teams participation ribbons at the end of the season.

A bunch of Trap games this past weekend, and 1 got trapped, others almost.

As for USC, yes they won, but also a Very close game .... ( this was thier closest Rival UCLA)

They could move up nicely, or be out in a week or two.
They play a much better than earlier in the year Notre Dame team next week and then the PAC 12 Championship game, win both and they very likely could be in the top 4 ... TCU won't like this though.

But a slip up and the Pac 12 will be Out again.

As for LSU .....
Not sure what to make of them, They are playing well, but they do have 2 losses .
It will be very interesting IF they get by Georgia.

When Tennessee played Alabama, that stadium looked like a crush hazard! So, definitely seems like "a thing" in Tennessee.

Tennessee's QB out for the season.

With LSU you never know until it is over. They have always played better in the second half.

OMG, here we go again ....
I don't care about 45 years ago ... what have they done in the last 10 years, maybe 15.

You may not, but the people that watch college football do.

 

[Derwin0]

And with Tennessee's huge loss, the SEC Shorts team is ready to pounce.

Who are we talking about ?
I thought we were talking about people Here ...

With Vandy on a 2 game conference winning streak and Tennessee being humiliated by South Carolina, I wonder if the CheckerVandy plan is still going on.

Tennessee Fans To 'Checker Vandy' And Take Over Rival's Stadium After Commodores Tweet Sparks Angst

Tennessee fans are planning to buy up every seat at Vanderbilt's football stadium and 'Checker Out' the road rivalry game. SAVAGE.

Great ....

What a great game, Michigan beat Ohio State by a better score then last year.

 

[Derwin0]

Clempson got knocked out of playoff contention by USC(e).

Michigan beat Ohio State by 22, giving them the #2 playoff slot and likely knocking Ohio State out if TCU and USC(w) win out.

And Tech got humiliated by Georgia again, after giving us false hope in the 1st half, so Georiga is in no matter if they win or lose against LSU.

 

[Derwin0]

What a great game, Michigan beat Ohio State by a better score then last year.

If/when Michigan wins the Big Ten championship game, it sets them up to get the #2 slot (they should get the #2 ranking in this weeks poll).

 

[Hyper Casey]

Today my little family (wife, daughter and boyfriend, and our honorary daughter and boyfriend) had our Thanksgiving dinner and watched The Game. Thats what we call it around here, Michigan vs Ohio State.

We are big Michigan fans here (me and the wife) and so we had a GREAT day here!

You are spot on Derwin0, - Michigan will move to #2, they should/will win the BIG 10 Championship game next week, and they will be in the CFP!

 

[Jimbo]

Looks like we won't get 2 sec teams in either, with LSU's loss.

So, heres what most have been hoping for.

New teams in.

Then again, Bama is still lurking, I'm sure the sec is expecting them to get in now ...

Bama gets in just another joke then! How could they pass up USC with one loss?

Bama won't get in unless TCU and/or USC(w) lose.

But both play ranked teams next week. And Bamas season is over. Not playing shouldnt get you into a spot to contend.

Yes, bit losing next week will have consequences for those that do so.
