Danny Kannel is the dumbest ESPN troll there is.

His top four right now are:
1. Miss St
2. FSU
3. Oregon
4. TCU

Pandering to the anti-SEC crowd...

I think when all the games have been played, it’s gonna be more like:

1. Alabama
2. Oregon
3. FSU
4. Kansas State or TCU

This prediction stuff is fun, but meaningless; including the predictions of ESPN’s staff.

Problem is he wasn’t projecting, it was as of today and he said he disagreed with the selection committee. Just a moran.

Doesn’t matter, plenty of football left to see how it shakes out.

Not that they do any good now, but this last weekend I was @:


So far from the early lines I like:
Georgia Southern -10
Georgia St +7.5
Duke -3.5

But need to do a bit more looking @ those games before I lock & load.

Waiting for Wednesday for FCS lines for the Crack Pipe Degenerate Special Of The Week.

What a crazy ending to the auburn game, poor kid is a baller.

I hope you’re talking about Laquon Treadwell.

Congrats on the win, but damn that was a great game, razor-close and tragic. Didn’t look like a compound break, but I haven’t read about it. Just watched it and nothing looked to be "bending" the wrong way.

OK, so that changes the playoff scenario a bit... and there’s probably plenty of changes to come in the next four weeks.

Lou Holtz just said there would be no two-loss teams in the playoff. Wanna bet?


Yes, LT is a first round draft pick. Never quote anything from Lou Holtz.


That break was at best, career altering, more than likely, it was career ending. I hate it for Treadwell, kid has major talent. Surgery immediately Saturday tells me it was nasty.

I sort of want this to happen...


I’d respectfully disagree.


Well, you’re a bit biased on that topic.


You might have a point.

We were watching that game on our rotation once we returned from the Iowa game.. my god, it just looked terrible.

Kid is certainly a difference maker. Played his high school ball in the area I grew up for a coach who coached at my high school (D Coordinator).. took head coaching job at Crete Monee school.. won a state title.. then got hired as my alma mater’s head coach.. not doing well at recreating that success..

Either way, wish that kid all the best.

The place where I think it may come into play is an instance like the Kansas St game last night where they see that they’re not "in" as of yet so they really pound the shit out of an inferior opponent to look better when it comes time for the rankings.

I hope it’s not WVU this coming weekend.

The Hillbillies have two weeks before they have to worry about that.

I for once wish Auburn would curb stomp the Aggies. We never run the score up. Should’ve hung more on LSU.

No Kenny Trill offered for A&M again this week. Though at this point, they may be good for the Aggies.

But I think that team is in a free fall. Auburn should beat them down good.

Yes. The old man here got his schedule all screwed up. Well, we are going up against a Longhorns team that beat us in OT last season. If we hold onto the ball, we should win. Anything can happen in Austin. I was at the last game we played there. Got out of there with a win. Fingers crossed. Lots of cousins with degrees from UT-Austin. They let me hear about it last year. Austin is the most overrated city in the nation in my opinion... and TexMex blows. It’s beyond gringo and gross.
