Question
I know this is totally untreated, but has anyone heard any new rumblings on Gunner Keil? I read a recent thread on Twitter suggesting that he should be considered a strong Michigan lean. The person said that he's close to Keil's family and that his preference is to stay in the big ten, thus giving Michigan an advantage over ND. This could be old info, but just curious as to what others may have heard regarding him...

Heat at Oregon game.
So how is it possible that Oregon can have the 3 Heat players and Chris Paul at the game without it being a recruiting violation. This is crazy, especially seeing as how they are play SC which stopped letting Will Farrel on the sidelines because they thought it cpuld be a recruiting violation. I can understand former players, but not random celebrities (I guess this includes Russel Crow, but he did give the ore-game speech so that's probably an exception). I just don't know how they can get away with this.

That intentional grounding call
That intentional grounding call in the SC game was bogus. Didn't we just go over in a thread that the rule states the QB must be judged to be throwing the ball to avoid an immenent loss of yardage by tackle? There was no sack coming. Bad call.

Apparently...
In the Pac-12, the receiver must be right there at that moment or it is intentional grounding. The bar on that call seems rather low here.

Your use of "this offense". Considering that a well coached team with good athletes can stop any offense, you didn't need to single out this style.

November 19th, 2011 at 11:08 PM
#52
The point is that the spread can be stopped.
It is not unstoppable. No offense is unstoppable and any defense can be scored upon. My point is that the spread is no different than any other offense that has ever been used. It was not an attack on the offense itself, but a comment about the excessive fondness some have for it.

It would help because then
It would help because then Orgeon would definitely be in the Rose Bowl and not the title game. There's some concern if they went to the title game that the Rose Bowl would then take Stanford as an at large, while the Orange or Fiesta bowls would probably prefer us since Stanford has a small alumni base that doesn't travel well historically.

There's a little over 2 left, vandy just got the ball back and it's tied 21-21. I hope vandy pulls it out and beats them. Because that would make tennessee 4-7.

If Oklahoma fails to pull it
If Oklahoma fails to pull it out against Baylor, is there really even a point to a national championship game if LSU wins out? They will have wins against Bama, Arkansas, Oregon, and Georgia already. All four of those teams could very likely be top 10 teams. You are telling me if Bama pulls out a win they are somehow now the champions? I'd still consider LSU the best team.
November 19th, 2011 at 11:30 PM
#87
Yeah, but 'Bama would have
Yeah, but 'Bama would have just as good a schedule. I think the voters will try to not set up a rematch, but at some point it will be out of their hands. Is there an alternative to not Oklahoma/Oklahoma St? VA Tech vs LSU would be pretty not inspiring.
November 19th, 2011 at 11:38 PM
#88
Bama wouldn't have the
Bama wouldn't have the Georgia or Oregon wins and also would have lost to LSU at home. They would be 2-1 against the top 10 with a home loss instead of 4-1 with a neutral loss. Again just my opinion, but I would still put my vote for LSU.
If Oklahoma wins tonight, I think the Bedlam winner still has a good chance at the national championship game with a strong showing against K St in the Big XII championship game. Other than that, though...Stanford would probably be #3 or 4 and as much as I would like to see Luck playing that LSU secondary I don't think Stanford should be there.

This is the point of Kelly's offense
It's the fourth quarter, and the USC defense is completely exhausted and can't get set between plays quickly enough to stop anything Oregon has coming. It's like time of possession based entirely on time required to set up your offense.

Herbstreit saying "why would you go for it with :08 seconds left from the 30 yard line?" gave me flashbacks to the Notre Dame game. It made it even funnier when their kicker missed the field goal. Maybe that's why you go for it?

Too many coaches assume that
Too many coaches assume that kicking a clutch field goal is easy. You really shouldn't put your team in that position if you can avoid it. It really doesn't make sense when you're down 3 and the FG only gets you to overtime, anyway.

I think putting the two best
I think putting the two best teams in is secondary to choosing a champion fairly. Alabama had a shot at LSU (at home). Why should they get another shot at LSU for keeps when Oklahoma State/Oklahoma won't get even one?

So have I got this right?
If OU doesn't come back, as of this evening the top of the BCS will be:
- LSU
- Alabama
- Arkansas
If they all win next week and LSU then loses to Georgia, it'll be Alabama vs. Arkansas in the championship game? Two teams that didn't even win their own division of their conference?
