Naw, not with the way things are going lately with Harris. Any half-serious thoughts of UF being in a playoff died when they needed OT to beat FAU in the Swamp. *sigh*

Nice catch
Try this.
UGA doesn't have their head coach, defensive coordinator, or offensive coordinator. Most of the remaining coaches will be gone after the game. I have no idea what to expect out of that game.
He got mobbed by the teammates too.

Yeah, the interception & punt runback really knocked MSU off their game. Alabama's defense is nuts.
No regrets here. Love the team & love where the program's at. Still work to do.

So this was the best team the B1G had to offer?

You can't say that.
Lets talk about right now:
'Bama has a better FPI, harder SOS and was higher ranked than OSU in all the major polls and by the Committee.
The one common team they played, Bama won 38-0, OSU lost 17-14 AT HOME.
That smile by Saban with Rinaldi was so forced. :jnc
This is where you say, "I'll hang up and listen, Paul."
Nobody here has been spouting off conference bull shit but you. Indeed, OSU beat Bama last year. Too bad they couldn't beat this MSU team in their own house so we could see how the game would have played out this season.
On topic: funnily enough, a career .550 passer ended up completing about 50% of his passes. I don't get why Cook is so ballyhooed.

It's what fuckery will get you. Sparty knew they were lucky to be there and it showed. Kinda like ND against Bama in the MNC game. Exposed for what they were.

this was all true last year before the sugar bowl.
Similar opponents? Memphis beat Ole Miss, Alabama lost to Ole Miss.....sooo Memphis > Alabama? No sorry.

It's a shame this defense went to waste this year
I have said all year this MSU team wasn't that great, I thought they were better last year. They easily could have been 8-4 or 7-5, but were one play from being undefeated too. Strange year in the Big Ten.

Exactly. Why I said "no sorry". He was the one trying to use the threeballz logic with MSU, tOSU and Alabama. Keep up.
they lost to Nebraska
and as a Nebraska fan
if we beat you this year you shouldn't have gone to the playoff. We should have somehow sent Iowa instead.

How in the world am I a troll?
Stating ohio state is better than Alabama as a fan of neither program doesn't make a me a troll.
It was just as outrageous remember last year to say the same before the sugar bowl. Then reality struck.
The reality is MSU isn't in this game if not for the idiotic kicker at Michigan. And Alabama is not in this game if not for the miracle in OT for Arkansas over Ole Miss.

Touch that thang, folk!
The hell are you talking about? Nobody brought up Memphis, Ole Miss, Bama except for you. It was simply stated that MSU beat tOSU at home, thus MSU had the shot at Bama here and not tOSU. It was already settled on the field in that game. That's not theoretical threeballz logic, that's an actual game result.

That was a disgusting beat down for a playoff game. Shameful display by Sparty.
What exactly does "better" mean to you?

As nice as it is to see a shutout as a fan, it's also kind of a shame from a quality standpoint. Actually wish it was closer just so the team doesn't potentially ride a high off the win.
What he said was actually relevant unlike what you posted regarding Memphis and Ole Miss? Break it down for me, I'm a dumb SEC fan and need your Pepperdine education to enlighten me.

Is this the part where Vegas puts Bama as a 10 point favorite over undefeated Clemson?

He brought up ThreeBallz logic. Which is apparently "relevant" and okay if Alabama comes out looking good.
I showed why that logic is trash by bringing up Memphis, Ole Miss and Alabama using the same exact format.
Hard day at work?

I don't think you are a troll.
You are a fan of college football, thats ok. And you picked OSU to defeat Bama last year in the sugar bowl, in what was a big come from behind upset. Well done. However, just because you picked one upset winner, doesnt make you an authority on who is the best team in college football.
As far as I can see, you havent given any reason as to why you think OSU are the best team in the country, other than you called the same thing last year (which had no basis either).
Yeah, he's the most hated man in Columbus.
