Afternoon Championship Games Open Thread
December 4th, 2021 at 4:11 PM ^
I am rooting for Georgia to destroy Alabama and Cincy to win their game as well
December 4th, 2021 at 4:15 PM ^
That would be best for us.
If we win, we will be #2. Cincy would be #3 (because ND is in and you can't put them ahead of Cincy because Cincy beat them.) We would play Cincy which looks very beatable.

December 4th, 2021 at 4:17 PM ^
Nd is not getting in even if Alabama loses. Bama would move to No. 4.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:27 PM ^
Would they really match up Georgia and Alabama again in the semi? Close game and they could leave them right where they are to play Michigan. Worst case scenario.
However, this scenario leaves open the possibility for Cade to lead a comeback against Alabama, get drafted by the Patriots, win a superbowl, and marry a supermodel.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:39 PM ^
That would not happen.
If 2 loss Alabama gets in, I am going to contact my senator. I’m gonna tell him “senator, people are unhappy in the streets. We need a cohesive plan to roust these rascals from our presence!”It might work.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:43 PM ^
If it goes chalk from here, who else would be 4? The committee isn't sticking a 2 loss non-conference champ Bama at 4 for an unfair rematch with UGA and then there's no way you can justify Bama at 3 to avoid a rematch.
I think as of this hour it's tentatively
- UGA
- Michigan
- Cincinnati
- Notre Dame
- Baylor
- Alabama
- Ohio St
December 4th, 2021 at 4:47 PM ^
Incorrect. 2 loss Alabama will not get in as the second SEC team over a 1 loss team. People would riot.
December 4th, 2021 at 6:35 PM ^
Georgia has been informed to throw the game to get two sec teams in, to help young get the heisman, and Georgia will oblige to not give away a good game plan for any hypothetical rematch.
December 4th, 2021 at 5:12 PM ^
Of the top 6, Alabama has the best QB, so would prefer they lose and be left out.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:12 PM ^
Please, please, please let the planets align so that we play Cincinnati.
H2 would eat.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:12 PM ^
I hope Georgia wins. But I did put a few bucks on the bama spread. Seems too good to pass up. Bama -6.5? I’m not too much of a betting man but seems like a no brainer to me.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:13 PM ^
My mistake. Georgia -6.5
December 4th, 2021 at 4:21 PM ^
I hope GA wins and Cincy loses, just incase things go bad Tonight. If we win with ease, then I would like Cincy to win!
December 4th, 2021 at 4:25 PM ^
I would like the optics of Michigan beating 'Bama in a game. But it's probably better to win a Natty, generally. Anyway, neither team looking great, so far.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:27 PM ^
Why are those Georgia fans wearing dildos?
December 4th, 2021 at 4:29 PM ^
Because Georgia fans are dicks
December 4th, 2021 at 4:30 PM ^
Yeah, weird! Some of them looked well endowed, over a foot long. LOL!
December 4th, 2021 at 4:30 PM ^
Georgia O Line looks large.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:33 PM ^
Clayton Tune with a chooch!
December 4th, 2021 at 4:33 PM ^
I really can’t stand Gary Danielson. Pompous jackass
December 4th, 2021 at 4:35 PM ^
Cheering for Georgia and Cincy makes the most sense for Michigan. But end of the day we just need to win baby! That's all that matters!
PS. I really really don't want to see ND in the playoffs, that would cheapen it a little imo.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:35 PM ^
Were about to see Ohio State weasel it’s way back into the CFP
December 4th, 2021 at 4:36 PM ^
You shut your whore mouth
December 4th, 2021 at 4:40 PM ^
If Bama and Michigan win with a cincy loss it should be
1. Michigan
2. bama
3. UGA
4. ND or Baylor
no way in hell OSU should sneak back in, but money talks and CFB above all is a business. It’ll be interesting to see how it all plays out.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:46 PM ^
I was wondering- ND thinks they're in right now. But will the committee punish ND for no CCG and losing their head coach? I think ND would tentatively be in but you could see them being left out too
December 4th, 2021 at 4:42 PM ^
Go away.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:42 PM ^
Idk - That Oregon loss is looking worse and worse over the past two weeks or so.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:45 PM ^
I'd rather see ND and Baylor get int than OSU!
December 4th, 2021 at 4:36 PM ^
Give us 24 or whatever days to prepare for UGA or Bama and I really like our chances.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:36 PM ^
Wtf all these guys are ginormous
December 4th, 2021 at 4:36 PM ^
I've been shocked all week that people seem to have written off the Cinci game as a W given that Houston has one loss in week one. Cinci has struggled with multiple teams far worse.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:38 PM ^
San Diego State, first and goal at the 2, kicks field goal. I like Brady Hoke a lot, but good God I don't miss those days.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:39 PM ^
75 yard TD run by Cinci. Could have driven a semitruck through that hole.
Cincinnati now up 14-10.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:40 PM ^
Just watching the first 10 minutes of the 1st quarter of the SEC title game and the sheer physicality and speed between both these teams is uh, let's just say very different than the B1G.
Let's beat Iowa and then shit ourselves later. I have extra diapers for everyone left over from our role playing night :)
December 4th, 2021 at 4:49 PM ^
We were not punked by Alabama a couple years ago and doubt we would look stupid versus either of these teams.
December 4th, 2021 at 5:04 PM ^
Yeah I'm not saying we get our doors blown off by any means but the talent disparity on display in this game is very real. We'll always have a shot and I think a very good one if we get to the CFP but there's no doubt we're watching the best 2-3 teams in the country right here. Real recognize real.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:41 PM ^
Bryce Young missing some open dudes. And a tight spiral would've made another pass much more likely to have been a ridiculous catch.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:41 PM ^
This will be a rough 3 1/2 hours of listening to Gary Danielson. He's nothing like the color commnentator who used to be paired with Brent Musberger and did Big Ten/Pac 10/Big 12 games.
Alabama being the Death Star allows them to be fawned over simply for existing. Last week against Auburn, Danielson and the media practically sobbed for Bama for getting a targeting penalty. An obvious late hit on the Auburn QB shouldn't have been a late hit. And a 2 loss Bama team deserves to go to the playoff. I can't handle it. It's worse than Dick Vitale watching a Duke basketball game.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:47 PM ^
Alabama has one good win, and if I'm reading this first quarter right are about to get blown out.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:50 PM ^
Everybody is sick of Alabama and is praying they get a big fat L today
December 4th, 2021 at 4:52 PM ^
I've already flipped it over to UC Houston. Probably a better game anyway
December 4th, 2021 at 4:47 PM ^
If UGa scores a TD here this game might be over quicker than I thought. Young looks shaky and a 90+ yard TD drive in your face is tough to come back from.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:47 PM ^
Isn't it nice to enjoy Championship Saturday football knowing that in a few hours we have a meaningful game to watch? What a time to be alive.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:51 PM ^
It is a glorious new sensation
December 4th, 2021 at 4:48 PM ^
Somone who knows more about Cincinatti and Houston help me out. I know Cincinatti is supposed to have a great defense, but in what I've seen (first quarter just ended) Houston seems to be going right through them. Does Houston have a great offense?
December 4th, 2021 at 4:49 PM ^
What situation gets us into the CFP even with a loss tonight? Probably Bama and Cinci lose also, then we're not falling behind OSU and a non-division winning Ole Miss. That would maybe leave UGA, Notre Dame, Michigan, OSU?
December 4th, 2021 at 4:50 PM ^
No sense in hashing it out. Michigan isn't going to lose
December 4th, 2021 at 4:50 PM ^
What a catch by Washington despite a bit of pi.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:52 PM ^
Georgia looks good! Alabama may get blow out here.
December 4th, 2021 at 4:58 PM ^
One big play and its a game again!
