2019 Conf Champ Week Chat Thread

[Irish YJ]

Jake Fromm may be the most overrated QB in CFB. Riding with Fromm may end up costing UGA a real chance at NC this year. What was that Brian Kelly quote about Golson "riding the bus" in 2012? That applies 10x over to Fromm.

Yup, a lot of UGA fans have been scratching their heads for a while with both Eason and Fields decisions. Fromm has always be just a good game manager. Will be funny when Eason is picked before him this coming draft.

Joe Burrow is so good.

He's had some exceptional plays. He recognized and punished the blitz by throwing into it. Led WRs with anticipation. Not to mention so very pretty passes. If the Bungles FO doesn't take him #1, they are bigger idiots than we already know they are...

 

[Irish YJ]

Ed O for Prez...

 

[Bluto]

Clemson’s pass defense does not look that good...if they play LSU they’re gonna get whipped.

 

[dad4aa]

I'm sure it won't happen but, since this is a chat thread, IF Virginia happens to beat Clemson, does that move Oregon to the CFP? Will that give ND a quality win since we beat Virginia? Would Virginia jump us because of the "quality" win?

 

[Bluto]

Virginia’s pass defense is freaking terrible...yeesh.

 

[fightingirish26]

As much as blue chip guys like Lawrence, Higgins and Ross immediately jump out on the screen, Clemson has 3 star guys playing all over the place.

 

[Irish YJ]

Wiscy!

 

[T-Boone]

I think it is crazy that if Clemson lost today they would probably still get in. That is ridiculous they have beaten nobody. They should quit having these conference finals.

 

[NDBoiler]

Fields clearly is not 100% to me

 

[ND88]

Everyone can officially start watching basketball again.
No need to wait until after the new year.
LSU and Clemson in the finals.
LSU wins it all.
Season over.
lol.

 

[T-Boone]

Virginia v Clemson, Wisconsin v Ohio State. How lame. Get rid of conferences.

It's for the economy. Lot of people would be out of a job.

Wisconsin is looking good.

whoaaaa.... balls of steel on that call by OSU. Fake punt on their own 20ish.. WTF

 

[NDBoiler]

They’ve got some momentum now.

 

[Woneone]

I'm going to be so pissed when LSU gets to play Oklahoma now.

They'd have gotten beat by either OSU or Clemson. Clay Travis already begging for LSU to be number 1.

Love to see OSU get beat and Oklahoma jump them to force LSU to play OSU in the semifinal.

 

[Irish YJ]

Circa taking advantage of the weed surplus created by Willie quitting.

 

[Irish YJ]

Wiscy killed that OSU drive. lol
And Taylor taking them out of the danger zone.

 

[ThePiombino]

Holy shit, is Wisconsin actually good?? Like actually GOOD good?

I was just going to ask y’all what you think if Wisconsin wins tonight by a TD or more do they get the 4th spot considering Oklahoma has to go into OT to beat Baylor who had their backup QB in?

Uhhh why wouldn't LSU deserve to be #1? They just destroyed the #4 team by 4 touchdowns. They've beaten Alabama, Florida, Auburn, UGA, and Texas (although that win is very devalued now). LSU has went through a gauntlet compared to OSU, Clemson, and OU. They rightfully deserve to be #1 and should have been this whole time.

A simple Wuuuuuuuut? would've sufficed.

LSU is the easy #1.

A team should be able to opt out of the conference final.

The only 2 teams that played anyone in that list is:

Auburn - Who Oregon gifted the win, and without that we aren't even in this discussion.
Georgia beat us.

Self-fulfilling prophecy in action.

EDIT: Plus, I hate the SEC. I don't think they'd beat either team, so a bit of bias in action as well. You're honestly probably right, letting that get color my opinion.

Jim Leonard is a very good Defensive coordinator.

Yes. They destroyed most teams on their schedule; specifically Michigan and at Minnesota. The Illinois game was a fluke game and they were looking ahead. And their other loss was at OSU. But that game was only a 10 point game at halftime.

IDK... loss to IL is a lot worse than the loss to KSU IMO...
I like what they (WISC) are doing tonight, but the blowout earlier to OSU was also ugly.

Big 12 sucks this year though, and is way overrated, so you never know.
