CFB Playoff Expansion to 12 teams approved
Bill from NYC replied to YoloinOhio's topic in College Football
I said the above months ago. There should no longer be conference title games. How many games should these kids play and risk injury and the loss of millions of dollars? I know that they get paid now (NIL) but they are still not pros. -

Is it always the #1 tiebreaker? Kansas State beat TCU, didn't they? It gave them the chance to get steamrolled and disgraced by Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. Should they have finished ahead of TCU? If Alabama was in that game, do you think the score would have been 65-7? Strength of schedule should and does also matter. The entire Big 12 was pretty lousy overall this season, wouldn't you say? C'mon, can we have a serious conversation? If you check out my posts on this board, I did not complain about Alabama getting in. It was not a good year for Alabama. I mean, they lost 2 games by a combined 4 points. That said, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that they would have utterly destroyed TCU, much like Georgia did. But, they did lose 2 games and this paved the way for inferior teams to get into the playoffs. Maybe you will feel better at least for a while with the 12 game playoff system. It will allow more inferior teams to "contend" for the title. Still, something tells me that you will be crying out for a 32 team playoff system. https://www.facebook.com/BamaOnLine/photos/a.608553272527278/5836521939730359/

I think that you left out perhaps the most important question......If the 1st round pick does play well, would it be worth it to the team to re-sign him to a huge second contract? Safeties, RBs, and LBs are (in the current NFL) are very rarely worth a huge cap hit. On other teams, guards might even fit this category but with Josh Allen on the team, protection is essential if we want to keep him in one piece. If it were up to me, our (very late) first round pick would be my highest rated blocker or wide receiver (preferably a blocker). Josh Allen is not a running back and if he continues to carry the ball over and over again he IS going to get hurt. Sadly, it's only a matter of when and how bad. That said, thanks for an interesting, well though post.

I don't know. They did give up 63 points to South Carolina and their qb got hurt. That said, why are you asking me? Why not ask the AP voters, etc. https://www.espn.com/college-football/rankings Now, my question to you is: Do you seethe with jealousy and anger 24/7 365 days a year or do you take occasional emotional breaks? 😆🤣😂

Probably not but tons of complaining about the SEC dominating playoff spots. Alabama lost 2 games by a combined 4 points and they were excluded. They went on to destroy Kansas State, who defeated TCU in their conference title matchup. Now, my question to you is: In retrospect, do you think that TCU belonged in the playoffs?
-
OK, so here are the scoring totals of the Sugar Bowl and the Title Game..... Alabama and Georgia (SEC) - 110 Kansas State and TCU (Big 12)- 27 Can the issue of conference parity be put to rest, at least for a while?

I like the fact that he had the courage to take a stand.

I predicted this before the horrible injury. I think that McDermott is calling the shots more than Beane, and he won't be able to resist a 1st round safety. Josh Allen is just SO great that McDermott probably thinks that he can win it all without help at WR and OL and you know; maybe he can. That said, because of the HOF talent that Josh clearly possesses, protecting him and giving him more weapons would seem to be the top priority to most people. We can only hope.

NFL Week #18 - Patriots* @ Bills - Post Game Thread
Bill from NYC replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Some of those passes were the best I have ever seen, particularly the TD to #16. Josh imo is now easily the best QB in the NFL. -

When the last bolt of sunshine hits the mountain And the stars start to splatter in the sky When the moon splits the southwest horizon With the scream of an eagle on the fly I will walk alone by the black muddy river And listen to the ripples as they moan I will walk alone by the black muddy river And sing me a song of my own RIP Robert Hunter

Agree 100%. As much as I want the Bills to draft OL and like players from Alabama, right after that draft I said that Kouandjio was a wasted pick, and that there were 3 or4 better blockers on Alabama alone that season. He also had a fairly serious injury.

Happy New Year Brother! -
Why do we never get an answer When we're knocking at the door With a thousand million questions About hate and death and war? 'Cause when we stop and look around us There is nothing that we need In a world of persecution That is burning in its greed

Did plasma tvs not last long? What was their problem?

I hope that you are right but I strongly doubt it. How on earth did TCU lose to Kansas State in the Big 12 Titile game? I will not back down from my stance that bowls that offer no chance for a national championship prove very little, but Alabama (in an off year) steamrolled Kansas State as if they were Vanderbilt, or even a group of 5 team. That said, I don't think that Georgia is as good as they were last season. Frankly, I think that 2022 was an off year for college football in terms of talent. I am not even sure that there will be 32 legit first round picks. In any event, Georgia 34 - TCU 17 but again, I hope that I am wrong.

Tonight I'm gonna break away Just to wait and see I've never been imprisoned by A faded memory Just when I think I'm over her This broken heart will mend I hear her name and I have to cry The tears come down again It happens all the time This crazy love of mine Wraps around my heart Refusing to unwind Ooh-ooh, crazy love, ah
