2024 CFB playoffs

[May Day 10]

Complete destruction

[SirAndrew]

I don’t have any rooting interests in this playoff, but I’m disappointed Oregon didn’t show up. I’ve always rooted for Midwest teams in college football, but OSU fans online seem a little entitled these days.

I historically like Ohio State, as I do any team that gives the SEC competition, but  as a Syracuse fan I saw a lot of classless McCord posts coming from Ohio. We get it, you upgraded, now get over your ex, and enjoy what you’ve got. Give the guy props for helping lift up a moribund Syracuse program, and enjoy having Howard.

I would not want to be an NFL team in need of a QB in this year's draft.

I haven’t seen anyone say anything about McCord tbh but I don’t follow anything Syracuse related. Glad he had a record breaking season. also will Howard is far from loved with the fan base.

I guess I don’t understand what targeting is.

It’s when a non-SEC player touches an SEC player.

Half my family is from Texas and we all thought it should have been targeting. Mom is very happy they won so I'm happy. But,  bad call.

The Ohio State has something to show and a chip on their shoulder

Has the loser of the Michigan / Ohio State game ever won a national title?

I think McCord took an unfair proportion of the blame for last year, but sure there are bad apples in every fanbase including tOSU’s. I’m not sure Howard is an upgrade. He can move a little better on QB runs, but I’m generally scoring them as a wash. 
 

(Also I’m always pulling for the Orangemen, so long as their interests don’t conflict with mine.)

Jeremiah Smith looks like a future top 3 draft pick.

Best bowl game i've seen so far this year is SC vs. Illinois.

 

This game had everything......it was back and forth, it came down to the wire, the coaches were taunting each other and yelling obscenities, etc.

 

Best bowl game of the season by far.

If that isn't targeting then what is exactly?

Even the rules expert right away said clear case of targeting.  There had to be a betting interest at play, had to be.

Not a big Ohio State fan but glad Chip Kelly removed his head from his ass and properly ran that offense.  They really came to play on both sides of the ball.

I agree, I didn’t think that Kelly and Day had this game in them. I’ve placed a lot of blame with Ohio State on the coaching staff, but it seems some fans blame the players. I think Howard with those skill position players is plenty good enough to be dominant in college football.

One of my buddies refs college games around Chicago (just earned his white hat!). He agreed with the no-call and said the key physical indicators were that the defender’s arms were out and his head was up, which together indicate an intent to make a legal tackle. The tipped ball and the receiver turning into the tackle were additional mitigating factors. 
 

Meanwhile, I can’t believe I’m saying this, but Penn State can play with either of these teams and has a great shot at making the CFP finals.
