New overtime rules blow. Can't imagine anyone was pushing for this except ABC / CBS because long OTs were screwing with their programing.

Plus how embarrassing for both offenses that it took that many OTs? Talk about inept.

I like watching Dabo lose games.

I know Illinois is not a destination job by any stretch but if Bielema can build that program into a Wisconsin/Iowa type program and do more with less it could make things interesting over there. I have never understood why that program is so bad. One of the best public universities in the country and they can pull talent from Chicago, St. Louis, Indianapolis. Nothing was even proven that Zook and Locksley were up to shenanigans but that was really the only time anyone was able to recruit there. Northwestern has had more success recently with their admissions standards.

Maybe that program developed a little bit of identity against Penn State. They need a QB bad, though.

Dream scenario is PSU collapses down the stretch (brutal slate to close out the year), Franklin bails for USC, and we poach some of the guys we whiffed on the first go around.

I don't know if Franklin going to USC is worth maybe getting Singleton. He's a terrible clutch-time coach but he's absolutely been the best thing to happen to both Vandy and PSU in some time. He'd recruit the hell out of California.

Will he win any big games in California? The only redeeming quality everyone keeps circling back to is he won at Vanderbilt and can recruit. All the QBs in the state are going to the SEC. Recruits know the PAC 12 isn't very relevant right now.

Cincinnati still in a close one 14-12 with Tulane (1-6 record). Would be a big yikes for them and us.

The reason a G5 team doesn’t deserve the playoff, UC is giving the perfect example. They’ve slept walk for two weeks now. You can’t get away with that in a conference or with NDs schedule. Like Navy and Tulane are bad bad. You do the same against a Arkansas or Purdue or whoever and you lose.

Cincinnati has not really looked that impressive all year.

They needed a key ejection on a bogus targeting call to pull through vs Indiana.

It's a testament to how poorly Kelly and the staff prepared for that game.

Not even about thinking UC is bad to me. A lot of teams can get up for one week. And that’s all UCs been asked to do

What is going on at Clemson this year? Was Dabo coasting on elite QB play?

They showed their starters and the injuries they had. After the Pitt game they were down 19 scholarship ship players due to injury.

And they recruited 5 star QB that the rankings were clearly wrong on.

If Florida just runs the ball a few times and doesn’t press they go into the half down 3-0. It’s 24-0.

I love scUM losing and I really see what everyone is talking about in Mel Tucker now.
