Swarbrick was at some alumni event in Philly last night and told my dad (alum) that he thinks both ND and Stanford need to win out for ND to get in. Probably for the best Stanford won.

There's no two ways about that. Agree 100%

Baylor just missed a field goal. Kansas State down by 7 with 53 seconds and no timeouts.

This game solidified my belief that the Big 12 is awful and am not worried in the least bit. They'll all get caught eventually

Well shit. K-State tries a trick play and the WR throws a pick.

One of the dumbest calls I've ever seen. Whose going to bite on the double pass there? It's not like Baylor had to be worried about the bubble screen in that situation.

why because it isn't espn?

No. Because. Clay. Travis. Not to mention they are all trying to sound hip and cool. Just analyze the game and move on.

The one guy said that if Texas, A&M, Bama, etc. had the same record against the same competition as Baylor does now they would be ranked in the top four. Also said that everyone else's schedule is basically the same. I mean, that is just not factual.

Matt Lionheart talking up Baylor.

Everybody here knows this, but here it is again:

Coming up: 22 (OU), 41 (OK State), 59 (TCU), 103 (Texas).
Average to this point: 109.
Average overall at this point: 90.

And us: 103, 78, 49, 119, 5, 36, 64, 28.
Coming up: 26 (Pitt), 31 (WF), 1 (BC), 39 (Stanford).
Average to this point: 60.

Baylor would not throw all over teams like Bama, Clemson, LSU, Florida. I'm sorry, those are legit defenses.

FS1 has a vested interest in pushing the Big 12. No amount of talk can justify their pitiful schedules and their even more pitiful defenses. One of them Playstation 4 teams will likely get their crack at the big boys in the playoffs. Beat your chest when you beat somebody with a pulse.

In the same breath though he said we should be ahead of Bama, so I'm on board.

Well, I do not think that's the case. I think Bama is a very good team, and no team ranked behind would beat them on a neutral field. I know Ole Miss beat them, but I doubt they turn the ball over 5 times again in one game this year, next year, or the next year.

Kansas State's 3 wins this year are over South Dakota, UTSA, and Louisiana Tech. They lost to TCU by 7 too but lost 55-0 to OU.

Clay Travis is a jock shock wannabe. All he is looking for is hits on his web site.

Irish YJ can relay the message to Clay at the next Tenn Vol game since they sit together. Clay is a big Vol homer.

FS1 was supposed to save us from ESPN. Instead, they are just going over the top. And bashing the SEC and propping the Big 12. Sometimes, I really really hate sports.

Gotta remember Clay is a big Vol homer and an Alabama hater. He has a vested interest in badmouthing the Tide. He does it every chance he gets. Bless his heart.
