I like the idea of having it at MSG, but not a fan of hosting it a full week before Selection Sunday.

Dick pics for everyone!

Preseason AP Poll: 1. FSU 2. Alabama 3. Oregon 4. Oklahoma 5. Ohio State Ignoring the overreaction to Oklahoma's bowl win, the 4 teams that were supposed to make it to the end did. I doubt that happens very often.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 11:27 AM) Its stated pretty clearly on the playoff committee site that the extra title game weighs more than a regular season champ. So its not really to their advantage if all things are equal. Do you think the committee ranks a 2-loss Wisconsin or GA Tech team higher than 1-loss Baylor and TCU simply because they won a conference title game (hypothetically)?

Having Robertson at the back of the bullpen would be awesome, but paying huge money for a FA closer just seems so wrong.

In one league I have a 14 point lead with Lacy and Roddy White (or Harry Douglas) going against Jordy and ATL's kicker. My other team has a 30 point lead facing Lacy, Cobb, and the Packers D. Thinking I will go 1-1 this week.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 11:39 PM) Does having 2 favorite teams just completely shatter your reality? It does. An adult rooting for and talking trash about 2 teams in the same conference? Mind. Blown.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 07:59 PM) The Rams beat the Redskins 24-0, but that wasn't the best part of the story. Rams head coach Jeff Fisher sent Stedman Bailey, Michael Brockers, Janoris Jenkins, Alec Ogletree, Greg Robinson and Zac Stacy out to midfield to handle the coin toss. What do those six players have in common? They were all part of the worst trade ever. This was discussed a week ago, but no matter how much talent the Rams acquired, if they don't have a good enough QB to make the playoffs, it's pretty irrelevant in the long run. Although props to Jeff Fisher for trolling Washington.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 09:26 AM) QFT. It's that special time of year when we remember how annoying Mariah Carey is. All I Want for Christmas is the best Xmas song, maybe the best song ever

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 03:08 PM) The conference title game was huge like I said. The sos was second like I said. And the vote wasn't close. I respect you riding the horse till it bucked you, but it was pretty clear. Apparently I missed some major writing on the wall. The Buckeyes make sense, still shocked by Baylor jumping TCU, but guess I have 365 days to learn the system for next year. Illinois vs. Louisiana Tech in Dallas. Kenneth Dixon will run for 200 yards minimum

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 02:34 PM) It wasn't a guess. I put all the facts out there for you but you wouldn't consider them. And I put all the facts I had out there too, yet the committee just seems to be making it up as they go. Stewart Mandel @slmandel · 3h 3 hours ago Long: "The fact there were co-champions in the Big 12 had no bearing on the decision." Stewart Mandel @slmandel · 2h 2 hours ago Long on Big 12: "We were presented with co champions. In the other situations, we had definitive champions for that conference."

Surprise! All the NFL kickers have been replaced by college kickers.

Last week Michigan State was ranked higher than Mississippi State, but after their idleness this weekend, Mississippi State somehow passed them. What does that mean? The Fighting Beckmans are going bowling!

Remember when the Saints were invincible at the Superdome? What happened to that, wow

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 11:53 AM) Long DOES say that it was the title game. I don't agree with it, but he's telling the Big 12 to add a title game. Yet had FSU or OSU lost yesterday, Baylor would have benefited from NOT having a title game.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 11:47 AM) Like I was saying... Nice guess, lol. Apparently everything I had read and heard from the committee was wrong or BS. And the weekly TV rankings were nothing but made for TV bulls***. 92% of the season puts TCU 3 spots higher than Baylor, but add in the final 8% and suddenly Baylor jumps them? That seems crazy.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 7, 2014 -> 09:39 AM) I'm really ok with any of Baylor, OSU or TCU getting in, I think they all have pretty decent arguments. That said, I think it's going to be the Buckeyes. Baylor has no chance IMO. The committee hasn't liked them from day one, I doubt a home win over Kansas State suddenly changes everything. Years ago they set a non conference schedule without a BCS opponent and that's gonna cost them this year

#FREEMORIN You might as well trade him at this point since Q refuses to play him. Maybe throwing him in a deal would convince someone to take Bickell's contract off their hands

If this were 2013, what would we be arguing? FSU would be a lock #1 because they are undefeated, so it would be Alabama or Oregon? Given the SEC bias, it would be FSU vs. Alabama with little argument. This system is way better.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 6, 2014 -> 10:16 PM) TCUs non conference is garbage. Their overall opponents are 61-70 while OSUs are 84-60. TCU didn't lose in the non conference to a 6-6 team. Given what the committee has said, it seems like that matters, even though OSU is rolling right now.

When the triple option is rolling, it is an absolute joy to watch

No matter who wins, I think it's obvious FSU is not one of the best 5 teams in the country Still think the non conference will keep OSU behind TCU, but who knows at this point

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 6, 2014 -> 06:55 PM) There is no way Oklahoma should be ranked. They got hyped up for winning a bowl game that Alabama had no interest in playing in.

Bama to the Sugar Bowl, Oregon to the Rose Bowl. Who will they play?

My wife's USC family is loving the Lane Kiffin love fest, lol
