Palmetto Bowl
Absolutely wild game, Go Cocks!
🤙 Go Cocks!!! I lost 5 years off my lifespan in that game.
Failed onside kick into immediate 3 and out is just about one of the funniest sequences I can imagine
So, playoffs now…right?
Yeah what is the pathway?
Seems tough.
Beating Clemson is as good a reason as any to give South Carolina a higher vote over the other 3-loss SEC teams (and I think they’ve looked better anyway). Miami deserves to drop below, also.
So maybe SMU wins next week and is the sole ACC team in, Boise State wins and is the G5 team.
Maybe that’s enough to bring South Carolina from its current 15 to 11 after Boise State, leapfrogging Miami, Clemson, Alabama, and Ole Miss.
The big question is what happens to the SEC and Big 10 championship game losers. Does a 10-3 Georgia get in over the 9-3 SEC teams? What about an 11-2 Texas who has only lost to Georgia, but twice? If Penn State gets demolished by Oregon, what does that mean for them and the rest of the Big 10 contenders?
There’s still room for chaos, as shifting narratives retroactively change how we (and more importantly, the CFP committee) view strength of schedule and strength of record.
Ok, so, not totally surprising that the AP voters didn’t put South Carolina ahead of Alabama, but I still think they deserve to be. And for the AP poll, South Carolina was at 16 rather than 15 for week 14, and has a little bit further to go to get into the top 7 non-conference-champs.
We’ll see what happens, but I’ll be pissed if Alabama gets in and South Carolina doesn’t.

The Game
Go Blue, but if (when) this starts getting lopsided I can’t imagine I will be watching this one for long
Ryan Day and poor game management in the final minutes, name a better duo
Did Ryan Day just lose his job?
Somehow buckeye fans want that. I know many and they seem united on that.
Delicious
Well it’s almost halftime and I’m still watching. It’s almost like an OSU is trying to let Michigan win. Kind of weird after Ryan Day said earlier this week that losing this game 3 straight was equivalent to a death in the family…
Will Howard is a turnover machine
And so is Davis Warren :(
I’m basically just rooting for every Underdog today, except the Aggies fuck the Aggies.
3 Texas @ 21 Texas A&M, the return of the Lone Star Showdown after a 13-year hiatus. Winner of this one goes will be rewarded with their first SECCG appearance
Red zone stop! The pretend soldiers’ offensive fails. Rumors are Putin is contacting them now for strategy advice
Texas defense looked really strong last night. Lots of key stops on important plays.
A&M taking “12th man” too literally, lol
Go horns go! Pretty sure Wisner is still running between the tackles. Now let’s get some revenge against Georgia
Manning with the first points of the game!
Broke: Mississippi related Manning
Woke: UT related Manning
Horns letting Aggy hang around. That punt block…
Only because we feel bad for how weak their offense is
Lol, worked out for y’all. Good luck in Atlanta.
I also love seeing how little Aggy boosters get for their money, year after year, decade after decade.
Why do they keep talking about the foot, surely they’re reviewing the bobble
Chaos for the Chaos God!
For the return of UT vs A&M, it’s a shame they can’t both lose.
10 Tennessee @ Vanderbilt
I just flipped over to this and it’s only been like 7 minutes, how is it already 14 to 7 Vandy?
Sorry Tennessee, we’re pulling for Vandy!
Can’t blame you, those story lines scare me
I said this over in the other thread but I’ll repeat it here. Tennessee has yet to play a full game against a meaningful opponent. Is this good or bad if you’re our opponent in the cfp?
Probably bad for the Vols, good for your opponent.
Now, if that opponent is Texas, I dunno how scary we are. We have yet to do so as well. (Although maybe Michigan and Florida now count as a meaningful opponents?)
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Dlyan Sampson leads the SEC and sets the record for single season TDs and Yards at Tennessee, not a Doak Walker finalist. What an absolute joke
Oh shit my b, I was in the other thread y’all.
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON
Ryan Day better enter the witness protection program is what’s going on lol
How the hell did they lose to that bum ass Michigan team lol
UF @ FSU
Confession: FSU isn’t that different from Florida, it’s just that literally everything about them is a little bit worse, always has been, and always will be, and yet somehow they refuse to admit it.
For that they deserve all the bad things.
Not to jinx my team, but man this FSU offense is sloppy. Of course, so are the Florida receivers.
31-11, Florida wins and causes a relatively minor kerfuffle, at least by today’s standards, with a flag plant.
TD Gators.
Vigorous chomps ensue.
The numbers tonight aren’t going to really show it, but Lagway does things that make one really optimistic for the next year or two, portal-willing.
Gators up 14-0 at the half. Clearly the Noles have some talent, but they’re just a mess. Florida has had some frustrating drops that have left the offense not putting up the points, but one more score should do the job.
Napier has done one hell of a job just believing in himself this season. Honestly good for him but still fuck the gators
All while still doing at least one head-shakingly stupid thing every single game. I’m not sure he’s got Saban or even Kirby ceiling, but the chaos factor should be fun/memeworthy if the team keeps improving. See you next season.
*scared Volunteer noises
Gators give up the FG, but get three back after a muffed punt.

Yeah, this FSU team could hang with Florida if they played clean. Florida is improved but are not elite.
FSU has not played clean. 24-3 Gators early in the 4th.
oklahoma @ LSU
Using a timeout on the first series on offense at home? It’s like Brian Kelly wants people to pile on even more criticism of his coaching ability
5 Notre Dame @ USC
Ok, not the game I thought I’d be watching at this point but here we are
It was tough and much closer than this scoreline suggests. But I’ll take it. Playoffs here we come. Go Irish!.
ngl, wanted y’all to take the L. I think that was our surest path to hosting. I’ll take a replay of the Miracle at South Bend any day of the week though
25 Kansas State @ 16 Iowa State (Farmageddon)
Major implications for the Big XII/playoff in this one. Wish it was in a snow storm like last year
No implications, but TCU-Cincy has gone from flurries to big flakes.
Wait what happened after the Michigan Ohio State game? I just caught a little bit of that. Did they say the Ohio State players got pepper sprayed
So Michigan did a flag plant, which caused a fight. It was dying down some, but there was still a Michigan player running around with the flag, and the fight started back up when a tOSU player tug-o-war’d it away from him, then other Ohio State people started chasing a Michigan fan/staffer/something who grabbed the now-sad rag of a flag, and random cops started pepper spraying people all over the place. I guess folks from both teams got sprayed.
Iron Bowl
Other two big games don’t have the early makings of an upset, but if the Orange or the Trojans keep it competitive I am potentially rooting for chaos there?
How is Auburn winning the turnover battle +3 but down 2 scores? Feels like they used up their entire offensive playbook in overtime last week
Giving up and kicking the fg was pitiful
Got to say I’m pretty darn surprised about Texas’s inability to pass the ball tonight.
I don’t think “inability” is the right word. With how poor A&M’s run defense came to light in their South Carolina and Auburn games, it was obvious we wouldn’t need to pass. The thing is, our run game was pretty pedestrian until it showed up out of nowhere the Kentucky game last week
TCU @ Cincy
Won’t be commenting a ton on this one, but hoping to cap off what’s been a decent enough get-right season for the Frogs.
Frogs trying to hold off the Bearcats in the snow, helped out by their awesome Tasmanian punter. One for 63 yards to flip the field after a low snap. Another coffin cornered at the 3 to force UC to drive the full length with a minute left.
And Frogs doink the FG in the snow. Still up by two scores at the half, but still not efficient enough to be as good as they should be.
Frogs win. Sloppy, but finish the regular season 8-4 and on a 5-1 run.
