I know, I mainly went back to 2013 because I vaguely remembered Penn State getting a big in-state tight end recruit that year (Adam Breneman). It looks like Gesicki might have beaten out Breneman, and the latter transferred to UMass. Worked out for both parties though, Breneman has 808 recieving yards and 8 TDs at UMass this season.

I gotta say, I'm not convinced. You would normally think so, but each of the four conference champions could be blowouts. Washington and Wisconsin (assuming this does wind up a blow out) will have blown out top ten teams. How do you not reward that? I was firmly in the "OSU is in no matter what" camp but if wiscy blows out PSU and Clemson blows out va tech with Washington already having blown out Colorado, how do you not let them in?

It would not surprise me if OSU gets left out. However, if they do get in I think the committee will send a message to Washington that says "schedule a goddamn decent OOC schedule and we'll help you next time. Until then, GTFO."

So, I've always wondered this, but on those types of plays where the QB knows there's no way he's getting the first down, why not try to punt it. Get a few yards back even if it's a shitty punt.
