Ohio and southern miss.

Yeah I'm down to participate. Are those your actual picks? That confident in the bills over the Texans? Is Watson injured or something haha. I haven't been following NFL nearly as much as college this season.

Damn it. The 2 bowl games I said were designed to make the big 10 and group of 5 good were wake Forest v Michigan State, and Boston college vs Cincinnati respectively. I tried to be optimistic hoping BC could make it backfire on them but nope. Should've been UNC and Pitt in those 2 games. BC should've never got a tier 1 bowl to begin with, and wake was missing the top WR in the nation at the time of his injury that did EVERYTHING for them. Pretty lame and obviously deliberate in my opinion, and they got the desired results. Pitt lost to Penn State marginally less than Memphis did, and UNC torched the temple who beat Memphis (that beat cinci twice). A big lol at announcers saying wake was undoubtedly the 2nd best team in the ACC the whole time while saying Michigan State had a bad year but this is a testament to how good the big 10 is. Gtfoh. No wonder their fans think they're better than the sec listening to that garbage.

Jeez. I hope that first throw by Fromm doesn't set the tone for him tonight. Yeah, I thought it could be a toss-up. Baylor is going to be more hungry for it that's for sure, and is known to be the team with the most hustle. I keep banking on Georgia to bounce back after set backs.... we'll see.

Still can't believe Auburn let Minnesota win. I missed it(finally back in NC). I definitely thought it was possible that Minnesota would pick their secondary apart. I have no idea if that happened or not, but I imagined it being a high scoring game. Didn't count on Auburn putting up 60% of the points I thought they would though.

I'm now seeing OSU fans post nothing but Minnesota > SEC stuff, living life vicariously through the golden gophers...

Kentucky
AZ State
K-State
Georgia State

I might come back before kick-off and change Georgia State to Wyoming, though. That's the only one.

On that spreadsheet I picked against the big 10 except penn state and michigan state haha. But, Illinois v. California may as well be a coin flip. I picked Cal initially based on my big 10 hate mostly. But, I do think that the big 10's 'powerhouse defense' stats are completely untrue because outside from a couple teams they just have zero offense... and they play no one out of conference so they all just pretend it's from their fantastic defense as a conference collectively. I'll stick with Cal then.

WKU, Louisville, Cal, Florida are my picks.

MAN people are making a big deal about the officiating last night. It's like they had a whole script prepared worshiping the ground OSU walks on and they're pissed because they lost and couldn't use it.

Funny stat to share with OSU fans:

NC held clemson to 331 total yards and 21 points.
OSU allowed 417 total yards and 29 points.

If it's fair to judge clemson on their performance against NC all season long, then it's fair to compare OSU to NC 

You'd think that a fanbase that has been humbled again and again would actually start being a tad humble but nope, not the suckeyes. They deserve every bit of it.

I agree with all of that. LSU looks unstoppable.

It all depends on how well Clemson's defense does against the best offense/qb in the nation. If they keep lsu under 30 points, clemson had a very good shot. If they score over 50 like against everyone else, then no.

I don't think I can stay up for the whole clemson OSU game. Concerning the targeting hit/call:

Right when I saw that hit I asked myself hmm was that targeting? Saw it a 2nd time, thought the same thing. The announcers don't mention targeting at all during the 5-6 slow motion replays of it, UNTIL the refs want to take another look at it. Buckeye dick riders haha

Indeed. Very ugly. LSU is THAT good, but that ain't the whole story. Doesn't look good on the big 12, and good for the sec. I know everyone is over getting two SEC teams in the playoffs, and this wasn't a year for that to happen, but it's fairly obvious why the SEC should be the only conference where two teams get in.

Memphis did decent yeah. They're a solid team, I just bitch a lot over the hate for the ACC. I watched most of it. It was an entertaining and physical game. 2nd half starting now.

Yeah, make some picks. You'll have bragging rights if you beat us on the remaining games haha.

Penn state v. Memphis is kinda going how I expected, and what I've seen so far. (I watched Pitt lose to Penn state by 1 TD, watched OSU v. PSU). I haven't watched memphis much, but I saw they lost to temple who got smoked by NC and beat Cincinatti twice. But these people, media, announcers, etc. that say shit like "Cinci would go undefeated in the ACC only losing a close one to clemson"......GTFOH!!! I hope their matchup of Boston College v. Cinci backfires on them and BC wins lol. Michigan State v. Wake was so lame. Announcers are still bashing the ACC over it. Sage Surratt was 1st in the nation in receiving yards AND TD's at the time of his injury. HE'S A BEAST, I'm familiar with him because his twin brother is NC's best defensive player and first team all ACC(chaz surratt). Saying he was crucial for wake is an understatement. Wake beat NC by 6 pts, but it took some luck(2 fumble recovery -> TD's accounted for the majority of their points). NC outplayed them in nearly every stat, and had a chance to win at the end but it ended controversially with the refs letting time expire. the ACC apologized and said it was wrong etc etc. But Wake lost to Syracuse, VA Tech, and Louisville. So they give them one of the ACC's remaining tier 1 spots, and now every queer is talking about how the ACC blows because they beat "the 2nd best team in the ACC".

I know I sound like a broken record but these stupid announcers keep talking about it. The only conference that has the balls to play the ACC is the SEC. Everyone else just makes comments from the peanut gallery, and if they're from the big 10 their team plays NO ONE out of conference. Michigan, Purdue, and penn state half-way did their part though. Their 3 out of conference opponents were respectable. I really, really hope BC's run game too much for cincinatti because that's all they have.

Time for LSU Oklahoma!

I got Penn State, Clemson, LSU, and Notre Dame I guess. Part of me wants to pick Oklahoma and Iowa State, especially ISU, but I'll probably stick with that.
