2022 Non PAC 12 Game Thread

[Catintheheat]

I love watching this game. I believe Michigan wants it more. This is the best high-level football game I've watched all season.

[Merkin]

I grew up in Michigan, and my mother grew up in Ohio, and she had many brothers who went to tOSU.

Have to say that was the biggest sporting event of the entire year in that area. Even the Rose Bowl was secondary.

Of course that was back when it was Bo and Woody with 3 yards and a cloud of dust, although it seems they haven't dropped off much in terms of winning.

[EastCoastCat]

My daughter is a Freshman at Michigan.

How friggin lucky is she to have a team go to the CFP her first year in school and her old man has been waiting ions just to get to a Rose Bowl.

All I have to say is…Go Blue!

[ASUHATER!]

So since #3 TCU and #4 USC lost that probably means that Ohio state and Alabama will probably get in the playoffs even though neither played for a conference title

[azgreg]

TCU is still in.

[EastCoastCat]

No way TCU is out with a Conference Championship OT loss, and being their first loss.

1 loss OSU slips into the 4 spot. No way they put them as a 3 meaning a rivalry rematch with Michigan. The committee already said they want to avoid that.

Georgia, Michigan, TCU and tOSU in that order. Bank on it.

TCU. Gives me hope.

They won 7 games last year.

[wyo-cat]

Snapped them fools off.

Good on TCU.

No way. Georgia, Michigan, Alabama, tOSU.

Dude, I think you are a little late to the party. When you are “down under” does that mean you’re 1 year late?

[RichardCranium]

No, not late.

Just mindful of the contractual obligation that Alabama has with the NCAA that it MUST play in the National Championship game no matter what.

Are you eating shrooms and forgot to share with the rest of us?

[EastCoastCat]

But Alabama didn’t make it to the CFP this year. Not sure I’m getting your point.

Court case coming up to overturn that decision in 3...2...

USC’s QB, Williams has an awful tell - when the play is a run, he keeps his mouthpiece between his teeth….

[TheCatInTheHat]

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory by losing to juggernaut Tulane. One more season in the sun for each, then it's lots of planes, buses, and sleet. Enjoy!

[EastCoastCat]

Pac is sucking today.

[Merkin]

I'll say.

Geez...Plaschke went thermonuclear on them. Guess they ruined his holidays and he took it personally:

Meanwhile, RG3 was the TV analyst for the Cotton Bowl. His biting comment on USC's collapse: "Expectation without effort is just entitlement." Ouch!

[EastCoastCat]

Georgia with a beat down on an overmatched TCU team.

[Merkin]

Sonny Dykes would have been an amazing hire for Arizona. Don't know if he was in the running or not, or even interested at all.

Jimbo trying to get fired to get that fat paycheck.

Fisher signed a 10-year, fully guaranteed contract extension on Sept. 1, 2021, that will pay him $95 million through 2031. If Texas A&M fires Fisher after the 2022 season, boosters would need to pony up nearly $86 million.
