Bowl Season 2021-22

Njigba Smith is gonna ruin us.

Watching OSU offense looks like they're playing a different sport than ND.

We definitely need a talent upgrade in many places. Hope Freeman and the boys are up to it.

Utah had to let them score there,…

 

[irishff1014]

And people think we can win lol. They were missing their 2 best WR’s.

Yeah it's going to be ugly. This defense gave up over 600 yards to this OSU. They'll give up 1000 to that OSU.

Wilson & Olave would both tell you JSN is better then them.

Utah literally had to throw their backup RB in at CB today.

Gotta hard time swallowing kyren not playing and then seeing corral for Mississippi out here battling it out when he's a projected first round pick.... Just saying

As he goes to the ground with an ankle injury.... I'm literally the kiss of death

And Corrals draft status just imploded with a serious leg injury. So.. Point proven I guess.

Mike Farrell shares your assessment of his toughness just three minutes before he was carted off.

one thing I’m seeing slot of today is numerous people getting injured. Utah’s qb, Corral, several buckeyes…

We've been severely lacking in the WR group as a whole for some time. We get the occasional playmaker in a Claypool, but top to bottom when was the last time we had a stacked WR room or at least two very strong starters? A real 1-2 punch with talent? Tate & Floyd? Samardzija & Stovall or Samardzija & McKnight? Never during BK's reign did I feel like we had two WRs that could truly dominate a secondary like those guys did. Closest might have been Floyd /w Eifert, subbing in a TE. Seems like at best we have one decent playmaking WR (Or one average one) and a cast of bit players. Styles is a bonafide star in the making, but we need some other guys to step up.

You are correct. However i was talking about Ohio State.

No, I'm with you. tOSU is deep at WR, while we've got maybe 1 consistent guy and he's a true frosh. It's depressing.

Conference USA	3-5
MAC	3-5
AAC	3-1
Independent	2-2
Mountain West	5-1
Sun Belt	3-1
Pac-12	0-5
Big Ten	6-4
Big 12	4-2
SEC	5-6
ACC	2-4

I would like to congradulate the SEC on proving their dominance in college football once again. They are garanteed a 6-7 record while holding out a chance to add a win/loss against Kansas State matched up with the powerhouse of LSU. Showing us all that a part from their typical top 2 programs their stretch of dominance flows wide and far across all spectrums of their programs. No advantage to collect 13 bowl games was created by propping up their marginal teams with games against lower tier, non bowl programs like Samford (Florida), Eastern Illinois (South Carolina), Southeastern Missouri State (Missouri), Tennessee Tech (Tennessee), Tennesee State (Mississippi State), Alabama State (Auburn), or McNeese (LSU).

I put this in another thread, but here you go. Current RPI by conference updated today. ND is #8 and you can click on the Independents to see their breakdown. Pac 12 falls below even the American and Mountain West conferences.

Interesting. We would have been the best team in the PAC-12, but only the 3rd best in the Big-12, the Big-10 and the SEC.

I dislike the ess eee cee more than anybody. I have lived in the south my entire life, and gotten first-hand views of several programs. Certain schools drown in their own Kool-Aid- sometimes every few years, but sometimes annually.

That being said, 1) every other team (minus a handful) plays shit teams every year. The scenario you described above isn't unique to the ess ee cee. 2) the ess eee cee, sadly, is better (and it's not even debatable) than every other conference. Now, does that automatically mean that the 5th best team in the ess eee cee is better than the 5th place team in the big ten? No, it doesn't. Or does it mean that the big xii or acc can't have great years to rival them? No, of course not. But get real, by virtually every metric, the ess eee cee is the best conference. It's not even a discussion.

Cack, they've just about slipped to G5 status. Seriously, they aren't far from it these days. They've only had two teams ever make the playoffs, and it's been five years since the last one.
