2025 WATCH PARTY: WEEK NINE

[Dale]

Florida would go 8-4 / 9-3 in the ACC / Big 12. I don’t think we can equate records here.

Florida lost to South Florida at home and to Miami. The hypothetical game does not favor the Gators.

Yes, but did you consider that they are in the SEC and are therefore undefeatable in all hypothetical games?

 

[Jeffwantpoppers]

Ohio State has to have the worst RB group in the top 15

[Dale]

I don’t think his stats show Heisman consideration it but Malachi Toney is the only juice Miami has week in and week out

 

[NDPhilly]

All the power rating systems have UF around the same spot as GT, Louisville, SMU, Washington, Cincinnati. So they’d be around a pick em on a neutral field. It is what it is, UF has like the hardest schedule in the country.

The second you lose to an American team at home as a double digit favorite that goes out the window

 

[Bluto]

Jimbo Fisher has got to be the most independently wealthy analyst in the history of the ACC Network right?

Wonder if he ends up somewhere coaching again next season.

 

[NotKoon]

Let’s just have Florida pull the upset today, make UGA and Texas an elimination game next week, and then I’ll say they’ll go 11-1 in any conference other than the SEC out of sheer appreciation

 

[stpeteirish]

Navy’s defense can’t stop anything

 

[FU BK]

Late to the party, but did anyone see Utah's helmets tonight? 1....they are badass. 2...dude hand painted everyone of them at 2-3 hours a helmet

 

[stpeteirish]

Miami looking like pop tarts bowl material

 

[arrowryan]

Can’t believe Notre Dame lost to those two bum ass teams.

 

[NDPhilly]

Sayin has a 80%+ completion % on the year. You may just have to give him the heisman in this underwhelming year. He’s crazy efficient.

 

[CoachB]

Pretty surprising Texas result considering how awful they have been all year.

 

[maxwell]

Damn impressive that OSU had EIGHT defensive NFL draft picks last year (14 overall), D coordinator change, and generationally good defense this year

It’s nice to see Vanderbilt getting exposed. Missouri is their only win worth a crap.

 

[NorthDakota]

The SEC getting only 4 teams in would make it very likely we are in. Big 10 can have 3. That would be ideal. Vandy losing helps this out, IMO.

Yes I think so

 

[NorthDakota]

Damn impressive that OSU had EIGHT defensive NFL draft picks last year (14 overall), D coordinator change, and generationally good defense this year

To be fair, they've played zero offenses

 

[FOTY977]

To be fair, they've played zero offenses

They kind of won’t for the entire year.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Pretty surprising Texas result considering how awful they have been all year.

Equally surprising that just one week ago Manning was in concussion protocol. I’m sure they were just doing their due diligence & wouldn’t be brazen enough to play him if he wasn’t cleared but a week ago seemed like he’d have to sit out today.

 

[laughingirish92]

so does Vandy move behind us in the new rankings this week due to a beatdown from Texas

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Jimbo Fisher has got to be the most independently wealthy analyst in the history of the ACC Network right?

I bet he does. I believe he has no offsets so he’ll continued to get paid by aTm while also getting a hefty contract w/ whichever program hires him. That’s the best example of “double dipping“ i think I’ve ever seen.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

No…SEC teams have a contractual agreement w/ CFP to remain ranked ahead of ND team regardless of how many losses b/c it “just means more”

 

[Dale]

The double digit margin is not unimportant. The Bama game was closer, but on paper will be two double digit losses for Vandy.

Would help for Missouri to drop out like LSU has of the rankings.

Some people will also rank Vandy behind Texas and they are #20 right now

 

[burmafrd1944]

doubt it; still have a Cinderella vibe there. I think they had a let down; Arch has really played well but Texas simply has not looked this good against a quality opponent this season

Vandy should absolutely be ranked behind Texas

 

[OKCDomer23]

Miami and SMU tied in the 4th. Miami driving. Agree that we rank ahead of them after this week if SMU pulls this out and we throttle BC as predicted.

This is what Billy Napier does to a team. Gameday wants to sit there on their high horses every week and lecture teams about firing their coaches but Napier was a literal football terrorist who refused to give up playcalling duties which is really all he had to do to keep his job. BN has the worst record at UF in 80 years, no self respecting program was going to accept those results.
