OFFICIAL COLLEGE FOOTBALL FAN THREAD WEEK 14

MSU is done for the year, glad to put 2023 football behind us.

Just hired Oregon State coach Jonathan Smith, which is giving fans a glimmer of hope. Doesn't seem to be giving players much hope as they're flocking to the portal, including all 3 of our scholarship quarterbacks.

As we say most years. . . Yay for basketball season!

I'll be watching the SEC championship game for sure, Alabama vs Georgia.

Sadly, my Oklahoma Sooners didn't make it to the Big 12 Championship game this year. However, after Lincoln Riley gutted our team last year, this year's 10-2 record is a great comeback by the Oklahoma Sooners. We feel like we have a great future ahead of us w/ Brent Venables at the helm.

**GypsyGirl** we were sad to see Jeff Lebby leave OU, he did a great job as offensive coordinator.  However, everyone knew he was bound to get a head coaching job soon, and I'm glad he got such a good one! And of course, everyone in Oklahoma loves Mississippi State's AD, Zac Selmon.  The Selmon named is revered in Oklahoma.  His dad and uncle were three of the greatest defensive players to ever play the game and they all three were scholar athletes and really good people who loved their parents.  As Barry Switzer likes to say "there was never a sniff of a scandal."

I can't wait to watch the games this weekend and see which teams make the playoffs.  There is the potential for a lot of drama, particularly if Florida State, Michigan, Oregon, Texas and Alabama win. Florida State, Michigan and Oregon would be in.  Texas and Alabama would have identical records, but Texas won the head to head early in the season.  Would the committee pick Texas and freeze out the SEC or would the committee pick Alabama even though Texas won the head to head? Of course if Georgia beats Alabama, there will be no drama because Georgia will be in, and Texas and Alabama will be playing in meaningless bowls in which all the best players heading for the NFL opt out.  

Looking forward to watching Zach Edey - he was incredible last year and only getting better!

Well, it looks like our backup QB is “day to day” on concussion protocol. I’m seriously so pissed about the hit he took in the game last weekend. Total scumbag move but I don’t expect much else out of the train wreck down south. The game should be interesting as we are a walking triage unit at this point. Makes me so sad as this is the most likable team we have had in a long time.

Congratulations to Coach Norvell and Jordon Travis, btw. ACC Coach and Player of the Year. So well deserved for both of them. I’m excited for the future of our team with Norvell at the helm. He is first class all the way.

I KNEW TR wasn’t going to start. There was just no way that Norvell or any of the medical or coaching staff was going to send that kid out there and get hit again. Our third string QB did what he needed to do to not lose. It was a frustrating game for sure, but we pulled it out and won. This team finds a way to win Every. Single. Game. Our defense was absolutely lights out. The offense wasn’t pretty, but they scored more than the other team so there is that 😏

Now, to listen to all the bozos on ESPN say that FSU doesn’t deserve a spot in the playoff is absurd. Absolutely absurd. Who knows what will happen today, but we deserve to be there as much as any damn team. ESPN’s cash cow, the SEC, should be left out because what happens on the field matters. It is so frustrating.

Same top 4 on my list too. Michigan 1, Washington 2, Florida 3, Texas 4. Though part of me would put Alabama at 4 and Texas at 5. I say that because Texas won over the early season Alabama team when they weren't so red hot.

But then Alabama had some tight games and did beat number 1 Georgia.

To me Michigan, Washington, and Florida are no brainers. But that fourth spot has me scratching my head.

I also think it should be Michigan, Washington, Texas and Florida State.

And can I just say as a loyal Oklahoma Sooner fan I couldn’t be more pleased that we are the reason that Texas did not have a perfect season and is having to sweat it out until the very last moment to see if they make the playoffs.

BOOMER!

No reason to play the game and listening to these douchbags pontificate is making me want to barf.  

It’s beyond comprehension truly. I’m so salty right now. Alabama jumped from#8 to #4?  Really?  How in the absolute *f* do you justify that?  You can’t. If I hear one more time how bad everyone feels for FSU, I’m going to head to Bristol myself and have a chat. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Wow! FSU got robbed!

The committee openly dumped FSU because their QB is injured. Totally not fair.

**GypsyGirl** looks like it's Penn State versus Ole Miss in the Peach Bowl. I'm looking forward to that a lot more than some of the other matchups that have been predicted during the season. Sounds like a good game! I'm already dreaming of peach topped waffles for breakfast.

I still scrapbook - are there any Ole Miss fans that want to do an embellishment exchange? Logos, mascots, small things like that?
