No sense in naming names, but OC definitely was not the only underperforming assistant.

Does this take place in the next week or so?

After playing against Alabama, we will have played against teams that finished 1, 3, 6, 8, 11 and 20 in the AP this year. We also played Illinois (which was ranked as high as 19 and USC which was ranked as high as 11).

The CFP committee got it right!

This bowl match up is absolutely terrible. The selection committee picked a bad one here

*nm

Just saying, as I see the schedules that put them in the CFP.

Been thinking about this and how the playoffs could be better as far as seeding and picking who gets in:

Get rid of conf championship game, the regular season conf outright winner gets an autobid from the P4 conferences. (Why If I win the conf in regular season do I need to be rewarded with an extra game)

Replace conf champ weekend with a wild card weekend between the 2nd & 3rd team in the P4 conferences. The winner of that game now gets into the playoff.

Best G5 team auto gets in & then that leaves you with 3 at large bids.

Lastly do seeding like March madness wait until the 12 teams have been picked and seed them that way.

Not perfect but I think better than current model.

Feels like the Reliaquest bowl has most of the momentum right now. As for opponent, we’ll see. Brett McMurphy is projecting Ole Miss.

Also, haven’t ruled out Music City either.

Should find out for sure here soon enough.

No names have emerged YET from the initial we’ve heard however there are folks who are adamant that Michigan wants to go younger with the OC pick and who has a history of QB development.

Who checks those boxes? Not sure currently.

I don’t get the sense Jason Candle will go further than the initial discussion.

Will do more digging.

Not a massive surprise. Michigan is active in the portal already on the interior OL.

My instinct tells me that SMU is out and they’ll put Alabama in just because they’re Alabama. They had two really bad losses but a tough schedule versus SMU who has two losses, but one in the championship game and they played in the ACC, which is clearly a demerit in the CFP world.

With there being no divisions in the Big 10 conference now, the easiest conference schedules will help teams get to the conference championship game. I’ve been curious about how things shook out this year, so I did some analysis. Here are some initial things that jumped out to me:
- Indiana played 7 of the bottom 8 teams.
- Iowa also played 7 of the bottom 8 teams.
- Iowa only played 1 team in the top 6.
- Michigan played 4 of the top 5 teams (only team in the top 14 of the standings to do so), with 3 of the 4 being on the road.
- Michigan played 7 of the top 11 teams.
- Osu is the only team in the top 10 to play the top 3 teams.
- UCLA is the only team to not play an opponent lower than 12.
- Purdue is the only team to play the top 5 teams (their other 4 games were against teams 12-16).
- MSU played 7 of the top 9 teams, and also played the worst 2.
- USC played 1 team in the top 6.

Key & Brown are both in the portal. Get one of them. Also Wysong of New Mexico had 69 catches. Holla at that dude!

I think that’s a solid hire for them. We might see Marion in the big ten after all.

He has 4 road games all year plus the SEC championship is in his backyard but he says this. What a crybaby piece of "work" he is

the UGA OC more money than he's making now with the chance to coach the #1 QB in the country. It's very unlikely, but just a thought.

We can talk about the other games going on today here.

Iowa State just got screwed out of a PI call!

has never played this well this year. PSU should have beaten OSU dad gummit!

Just feels like it’s time for him to step up into another program.

The Arizona State coach, Kenny Dillingham looks like a terrific hire at his alma mater

Bahaha he has no grace..PPOS
Pennsylvania piece of shit

Wolverines improve to 8-1 with a two point win over the Hawkeyes in their Big Ten home opener.
