2022 Watch Party: WEEK TWELVE

[IrishSpartan]

Jeff Lebby stinks and Gundy is the king of half time adjustments

We might have a game!!!

 

[notredomer23]

Dillon Gabriel is 0 for his last 11

 

[NDMatt91]

With Tennessee losing we're pretty much down to just 6 teams who could make the playoff, right? I just don't think the committee will put in Clemson if they win out, but I could be wrong.

UGA
Ohio State
Michigan
TCU
USC
LSU

 

[ulukinatme]

Think South Carolina might run an underneath crossing route?

That game is wild. Clay Travis is going all Mike Valenti on the DC.

 

[IrishSpartan]

Caleb Williams is scary

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Can Caleb Williams be sacked? Damn

I think there has been enough chaos that they will, especially if OSU beats Michigan and UGA beats LSU. You’ll have UGA, OSU, TCU, and Clemson. I can’t see them letting in a 2 loss team or a non-champion Michigan.

Of course, I’m operating under the assumption ND beats USC which is an awfully big assumption.

 

[Sea Turtle]

Just can't stop the USC offense.

 

[Bishop2b5]

Gamecocks with the straight beat down. Gotta wonder if the early season success was just a one off for Tennessee at this point.

How does Tennessee beat Bama, even in a down year, then get curbstomped by SC? They gave up 63 points to SC??? I thought UT came too far too fast, and yeah, it's looking like the first half of the season was more of a one off than genuine.

If we beat USC, Ohio State beats Michigan by multiple scores, and Georgia beats LSU, Clemson probably gets in. They have looked better since our game.
Who else would be fourth?

They would probably give it to Tennessee, LSU, or Utah if they win tonight

 

[GATTACA!]

If Clemson does make the playoffs that opens another NY6 avenue for us right?

 

[GATTACA!]

Tennessee

Check ESPN my guy

 

[Bluto]

UCLA looking like they’re just giving up
playing defense.

 

[Sea Turtle]

This is like a video game. They're gonna score 70.

 

[greyhammer90]

Maybe I'll be proven wrong, but I just keep thinking about Lincoln Riley teams at Oklahoma and USC over the last 8 years or so, and neither of those things scare me.

 

[Bluto]

That terrible second quarter by DTR looking like it’s going to be the difference.

 

[ulukinatme]

Just can't stop the USC offense.

Well, UCLA hasn't had an exactly stellar defense. They've been middle of the road in points given up in the PAC-12, and that's with only facing Oregon and to a lesser extent Utah when it comes to teams with an offensive pulse.

Fun fact, we currently have more points scored for the year than any team in the PAC-12. USC's defense also hasn't been stellar.

 

[Crazy Balki]

Lights up the scoreboard against bad defenses, and struggles against the good ones. Never fails.

 

[ACamp1900]

Fuck SC chants in the rose bowl,… ucla student section winning regardless of outcome

 

[Bluto]

The key is getting Williams on the ground when you get that chance. The USC pass pro is pretty leaky. Williams is crazy good at scrambling and firing off platform though.

You were doing this about Tennessee just a few weeks ago

I respect the long con jinx

They lost to Arizona a week ago and their QB threw for nearly 80% and over 11 yards per attempt.

That same QB threw 4 picks today against Wazzu.

UCLA's defense is worse than the stats would indicate.

 

[FDNYIrish1]

SC is soft. None of these guys are going to want anything to do with Estime coming downhill.

 

[Bluto]

Looks like USC had decided to quit playing d. Last team with the ball Is gonna win. Haha

 

[stlnd01]

Neither of these teams is playing any defense at all, are they?

 

[Sea Turtle]

Unless you have a Georgia or Alabama defense, you aren't stopping these offenses.

 

[Dale]

I guess Arizona has a Georgia or Alabama defense lol

Alabama defense?

All those teams are going to have two losses. At least two of them - in the scenario I described - wouldn't have a conference title either. A one-loss ACC champ Clemson vs. a two-loss Pac-12 champ Utah is an interesting conversation. But it's hardly a slam-dunk for Utah.
