This must be "give the top seeds all they can handle" week. No upsets yet but a lot of close calls.
/s
yeah. Pfft, who needs teams that beat teams by double digits. Last minute field goals all the way.

Also, Texas finally got the monkey off their back and properly beat a rising Kansas. Bijan 240 yards and 4 TDs. He's gonna be gone in the 1st round for sure
Big Ten still uses divisions. Winner will play a crappy team from the west and loser sits home.
Both OSU and Michigan had uninspiring days vs meh teams, probably kills the chance of either getting in the CFP with a loss. Michigan definitely has no shot of that, OSU has an outside chance since ND is propping up their SOS.
Tenn is out, entirely now, after this soon-to-be-a-2nd-loss-to-the-Gamecocks. Glad to see the SEC is chewing itself up just like the Pac-12. Ol Miss is currently behind as well.

Fucking pac-12 schedulers. We shouldn't have any game after 4:30 PST. Ridiculous.

Tenn and Ol Miss are out. Mostly counts re Tenn - they are out of the CFP.
If Michigan plays as well as they did against Illinois, Ohio State is going to wipe the floor with them. Not sure even a 1-loss Mich, non-conf winner would make the CFP cut. USC seems to be holding against UCLA.
CFP is going to be:
1. Georgia (SEC champ)
2. Ohio State (Big-10 champ)
3. (Big-12 champ)
4. Who the fuck know.

Yeah, as a 1-loss pac-12 conf champ. I could see the Committee pushing them past the rest for that last spot. Plus, what a great line-up for the CFP, 4 conf champs - ideal.
I could not see Oregon getting that same push to the #4 spot, assuming they win out. If USC wins out, and Oregon's only other loss is to USC, could Oregon get the Rose Bowl spot?
so with Ok state's loss, Texas needs Kansas to beat K state next week in order to go to the Big 12 champ. Unlikely, but doable if they play like they did the first half of the season instead of tonight.
Oregon filthy

You're right - I forgot about Clemson. Agreed re USC/TCU losing and they are in. That ND game next week will be hawt.
Would love to see the pac-12 get into the CFP before it goes to 12-man (did you see that the Rose Bowl is the only hold out to the CPF going 12-man next year?).

So many...I really thought one of them would fall. I mean besides Tenn. Although their loss at least opens the door for the pac-12 to get in.
Kickers won the game for Mich and OSU.

Oh right, shoot. Agree re OSU and Michigan - really lack luster games.
No joke - that was a sweet play. Very well executed under literally ALL the pressure.

Ty Thompson is in for Nix in the second half, and just FUCKING FUMBLED THE BALL ON HIS FIRST PLAY and Utah runs it back for their only TD so far.
That guy, Thompson, should just be benched. Not sure why we keep giving him chances.
Utah-Oregon is tied 17-17.

That actually wasn't Thompson, that was the RB. Even the handoff was clean.

Jackson Powers injured @cubby

No, Thompson fucked it up, and it was a horrible call to put him in regardless. We had that beautiful 3rd quarter stop and then fucked it up.
I really don't want to see Thompson on the field ever again.
- - - Updated - - -
Definitely change things. 2-3 pac-12 teams might make it in, rather than just an outside chance at 1. Couple of "fun" teams as well. ND...good point there.
I'm glad you're staying up for the game. I remember living on the east coast and being an Oregon fan and having to start watching the damn thing at 10pm in the bar. Craziness.
in before Lilithvia complains about the ref'ing...

Oregon-Utah game is nuts. Oregon owned the first half like last year was a distant memory, but after that total fuck up call and play by Lanning and Thompson, we're just taking the lead back now with a field goal. 20-17 Oregon.

I really don't give a shit - when Thompson is on the field, bad things happen.
Yeah...I mean, I could have made that pass. Great game, amazing defense so far from Oregon.
- - - Updated - - -
Great Nix pass, followed by an insane defensive play by Utah - fucking nice INT.
According to the script, Utah should fumble it in the next couple of plays, with Oregon recovering.
Game was winnable. Gg

Holy hell, a 3 and out?
3:34 left? We might win.

Fucking Solo.
