2025 College Football Playoffs

Alabama under DeBoer is so soft.

I am remarkably unimpressed with DeBoer. He’s literally the definition of “mid”

He may just not fit in Tuscaloosa. Was an odd hire

Talent composite doesn't work when you are bringing in dozens of developed players. These guys are 20+ years old with tons of college film to show that they are good. For example, Mendoza is considered to be TOTALLY ASS by talent composite but is actually a Heisman winner.

Well-coached team with no holes. No superstars, but every single guy is good.

For the most part, but being a Heisman winner and a top 5 draft prospect has to mean you are a superstar at least

Indiana blowing out Alabama in football. What a time

 

[T-Boone]

Nah, we are the last team to beat them.

And they have a few nattys and heismans to go to catch up.

Drop everything and schedule a game next year week 1.

3-loss alabama deserved to be in over Notre Dame....

There.... I said it....

Mother Fuckers...........

If Indiana wins, the SEC moves to:

1 - 6 against P4
1 - 0 against G5
2 - 2 against each other (obviously)

Do you think the committee is impressed with how Alabama is running the football?

It was gutsy how they went for it on 4th and half a yard and couldn't pick it up. You can't just find anyone to run those types of plays in the CFP.

 

[ShamrockOnHelmet]

Alabama RETREATING to halftime.

Against Indiana.

I don’t think I would have ever believed it.

5-7 Florida state did the same thing

Sure, but it’s still directionally correct, and 247 tries to adjust with this with their updated transfer player rankings. Outside of Mendoza, it’s not like the rest of these guys were top flights transfers that Miami, Oregon, LSU, etc wanted.

They jumped out to a 17-0 first half deficit- very impressive.

It’s still pretty wild. It’s not like other schools have been sleeping on the transfer portal. I guess maybe loyalty to guys you recruited in high school is a drag on other programs that Indiana hasn’t had to worry about?

That was week 1, though, you can't trust those results

I’m going to bite my tongue for just a bit longer based on last game but … yeah …

 

[irishfan]

Indiana is literally last in the B10 in the 247 talent composite. What he’s doing is unprecedented. It doesn’t make any sense.

Very different styles of play and eras, but reminds me of the Harbaugh Stanford teams:

There is absolutely nothing easy offensively anyone can do to them, and they’re able to shut down any style of offense.

They make essentially zero mistakes on any side of the ball while seeming to be able to get the absolute most out of every single player.

I’m also not convinced there isn’t something funny going on in their strength & development department…

Only thing Bama has going for it at the moment is that Williams is a constant home run threat. Beyond that, they are getting beat soundly on both sides of the ball. Same Alabama team they've been for the last 2 months, can't run and can't stop the run.

Like what?

I mean, they don’t looked jacked or anything. In fact, they look quite a bit smaller than Bama players. 🤷‍♂️

 

[ThePiombino]

So... THIS is what the committee wanted? Mkay...

 

[CoachB]

Indiana is good. Not sure about great. They beat OSU 13-10. Miami beat them worse. They barely hung on to beat Penn St and Iowa. Don't forget, Alabama sucks. Don't get fooled by them kicking the pee out of a bad team. But I am loving seeing it. Darn corrupt SECSPN.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

SEC will end the first 2 rounds of playoffs 3-4 w 1 win against a G5 team and 2 wins coming against… SEC teams. It just means more. Miami will smoke Ga/Ole Miss winner.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

The fact the “Saban glow” still existed was ludicrous, if it exists in any capacity whatsoever after today, it is criminal

People have been holding the close wins to Iowa and Penn St against them and i don’t get it. Even good teams lose games.

Theyre the most disrespected, undefeated one seed in CFP history and they have wins over OSU and Oregon, 2 top 6 teams and beat everyone else they played

Although I wish for your sentiments.... GA will annihilate Miami... bet GA kills ol piss tonight

Like I said, they are good. But think ND would take them, just like last year. They are very good. They are not unbeatable, by any stretch. In all honesty, I think either Oregon or Miami beats them. Probably Miami, Oregon is still young.

Don't forget Georgia is in the SEC and the SEC is massively overrated. GT gave Georgia all they wanted. I think Miami beats them by double digits, tbh.

I’d like to agree, but it seems like literally the opposite of every feeling I’ve had has been proven wrong these playoffs

Stanford had “The Glove” when they were dominating teams, Bama had deer antler spray, what’s going on at Indiana?!
