OSU vs. Michigan State looks like Center Grove vs. a middle of the road 3A program in high school. And Michigan State was ranked in the Top 10! I don't know how the NCAA rectifies the situation, but if the same 3-4 teams are playing for the championship every year, fans will lose interest very quickly. I already have. I use to look forward to a lot of tn bowls but now between the playoffs and having 40 bowls I lost interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU is probably top 15 I’d say. I don't think so because any team that couldn't blow us out don't belong in the tip 20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to enjoy the big matchups of the week, but I probably haven't watched 10 minutes of college football since I physically went to the IU / Cincy game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier51 Posted November 21, 2021 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) Oregon down early 14-0 to the Utes. Make that 28-0 now. Possibly another Top 10 team getting eliminated from the CFP today along with the Spartans. Edited November 21, 2021 by Hoosier51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football will always be king and have the viewership and money like you say. People will still watch and go to games no matter who makes it to the CFP. Also although slim there is a chance this seasons CFP might have four new teams in it. Clemson is out and if the Tide lose to the Bulldog then they are out. Notre Dame has a chance but they need a lot to happen, OSU is probably as close of a lock as any of them but they do have a couple of tough games coming up.

They are CLEARLY the 2nd best program in the ACC. By a wide, wide margin. I think most years they'd be 4th in the SEC, that's not necessarily intended to be a knock though.

They would battle for the ACC title every year with Clemson and win some of them. Also i think they would be second almost every year with Georgia or whatever other team is hot that year in the SEC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think it should effect their strength of schedule? Should it be discussed they get basically another bye week in the middle of the their conference schedule, while other conferences are grinding it out? I personally believe Bama should've dropped last week when they played New Mexico State and OSU dominated another conference foe. But then again, I admit my anti-SEC bias openly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 2nd in the SEC!?!?! Cmon now lol we've seen this play out before. Every year ND fans assume because they're 10-1/11-0 right now that they can compete in the South. They lost to a non power 5 at home... Has ND ever had a good showing in the post season? In my lifetime.. (1990).. I can't remember any BCS bowls/CFP they've even won. They are like the Purdue of CFB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't overly using that as a barometer any more. It's about who've beaten. 1, 2, 12, 16, 21, 25 in one conference gives you a plethora of good win possibilities. 4, 6, 7, 15, 17 is the Big Tens lineup rankings wise. It's incredible how much better those two conferences are than the rest. 5 of the top 7, 8 of the top 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
