Now I'm wondering if it will be 2009 all over again if Strong leaves for a SEC job.
Like Brian leaving for ND.

I wonder if some people voted Florida down to prevent us from getting a BCS #2. I'd be OK with that, more than most of them thinking Oregon has a better resume/is better.
Huh?

I'd honestly be surprised if Charlie isn't coaching somewhere else by the 2nd.
Because we may not have enough offense to beat you?
We would be able to run on Oregon. Same gameplan as LSU and FSU. Let the Defense do it's thing, and on Offense beat the shit out of them in the trenches for 3 quarters until they break and run it down their throats until we get the lead.

ESPN dudes is mad
So, is it possible that all of this is Sirpopopopop's fault? Rutgers loses to Kent State, giving them false hype to rise up in rankings, and then when NIU beat Kent State, they vampired the essence of that Rutger's loss, and achieved their lofty 16th rank, and made Herbie mad?
But then he talks about Oregon, which is confusing. His comment would make sense to me if he talked about Florida being compared to Alabama.
I really believe he'll land at Auburn. Seems like a good fit for him. I really like Charlie, I hope he does get a chance to coach in the SEC.

Can't get behind him anymore after he agreed with the "eye test" last year
Oh. There wasn't any worry about that. Computers are only worth 1/3 of the equation, and Bama was a solid 3 in the computers anyway.
Wouldn't even happen then. UF has a solid team this year

CUSA vs. SEC is the normal tie in. SEC didn't have enough teams and the Liberty is one of the few bowls that has an at large option. They went after Iowa St.
Thanks. That would make sense. Considering Iowa State finished 9th in the conference and is bowl eligible and there isn't a bowl for the 9th team Big 12, they would have to be an at large team.

Hot off the presses: A&M vs. OU in the Cotton Bowl
I think he's already abandoned NIU, however. I don't think he's coaching their bowl game.

Awesome, love seeing these rare matchups the postseason gives us, cant wait.

Same, why not finish your season. I know you need to touch base with recruits but I don't like the idea od shirking your old team.
Sometimes the schools tell the coach to beat it. I don't know which it was in this case.

Kirk just said "Don't underestimate EJ Manuel and the offense's ability to keep the game close"
Of course, he said we had zero chance against FSU.
Of course, he said we had zero chance against FSU.
Florida almost lost to LaLaf at home. Stuff like that doesn't necessarily mean much.
You could also look at the narrow victories over Bowling Green, ULL, and Missouri.
Then see that Oregon had all but two of their games won by the third quarter. The other two, they beat USC by three scores (basically), and loss in OT to Stanford.
Florida has the best resume but Oregon has had a crazy season in terms of the 'eye test'.

I'll keep my O&B glasses on. Haha. But seriously, playoff is the only way.
There aren't too many jobs better than the one he has. Definitely not a top flight program but close to the top

Has anybody figured out what the BCS bowls would have looked like with OSU eligible? Would they have pushed NIU out? Or with OSU potentially in the title game, would the Rose Bowl be forced to take a non-AQ (don't they have to take one every few years)? B1G wouldn't have gotten two teams in, that's for sure.

Ohio State would have been in the title game had they not been banned. There was a big bias in the media poll to keep them down so we didnt have a split title again.
