@roaminglion. Georgia won the game and I’ve never said Ohio St couldn’t beat Alabama or Clemson even thought they do struggle to wins the games against the SEC and Clemson. If y’all want to think Coastal Carolina, Cincinnati and Indiana can play with the top 4 teams more power to ya I just don’t think they have a chance.
All I am saying is I'd like to see at least one of them get a chance, rather than constantly talking about it
Exactly, give one a chance and if they get the snot beat out of them it's a serious uphill climb for a group of 5 team to make the playoff again.
All I know is PSU is getting another verbal from a 4* on new years day. My sources have already confirmed.

@psujoe. I’d love for them to get a chance in an 8 team playoff but not a 4 team playoff because that means a team like Ohio St and Penn State get left out with 1 or 2 losses winning the big 10. I didn’t start liking Penn St until 1975 but I’m familiar with the 68 and 69 teams and them 2 teams were loaded with NFL talent and Penn State and they were beating teams like UCLA, WV, Pitt, Syracuse and Colorado that a big difference in what CC and Cincinnati is beating. I might give y’all Indiana but we all know if Indiana was in the playoffs playing with 1 loss playing Alabama or Clemson we’d be saying they have a cakewalk into the championship games and y’all know it.
Hey Southern...you mentioned 2015... What was the score of the Ohio State vs. Bama game again? Who got their aaaaazzzz kicked? And it was a home game for Bama as they played it in the sugar bowl as usual...
@the-funeral-director. That’s Ohio st FD a team with NFL talent all over the field and a HOF college coach Urban Meyer one of the greatest coaches ever you can’t put Indiana, CC and Cincinnati in the same category. I’ve never said Ohio State doesn’t belong in the playoffs except for 2016 season.
I also want to add Y'all know what? How do Y'all know if you never let them play the game? We will find out about Cincinnati when they play Georgia...I agree that I am not as high on Cincinnati as I am on Coastal Carolina and Indiana...I do know this much...Notre Dame don't stand a snowballs chance in hells chance of beating Alabama and everybody knows it...They bring a large fan base and plenty of eyeballs...They check all the boxes...Easy win for Bama...Perpetuate the myth and plenty of eyeballs to see it...A propagandists dream...This is why I hope Ohio State drills Clemson and Alabama...The B1G needs to represent themselves in these games...I know that Indiana played Ohio State tough and frankly should have beat em...They only have one loss...So explain to me why their one loss eliminates them and the drilling Clemson gave to Notre Dame shouldn't eliminate them? I can tell ya why...Indiana is an upstart and hungry...They are dangerous so Bama don't want anything to do with them...Why do you think they don't want Coastal Carolina in the thing? Same reason...As I said Southern...Keep chirpin...But I ain't buying the bullshit...If they only play with themselves the myth can continue...But myths are fantasy...and to me fantasy is bullshit...That is why I won't be watching as I got better things to do...
Again Southern let em play and lets find out...Take the NCAA basketball tournament as an example...How many sacred cow teams get knocked off every year by second tier teams? This is sports...Let em play...You know what happens when you ASS U ME things...You can spout off about how great bama and clemson are because they never play anybody outside of their inner circle...Why not let Coastal Carolina, Cincy and Indy play em...Lets see...You may be right but then again you may be wrong...I say let em play...This is sports isn't it? You compete right? It becomes and is a farce because they don't allow these teams the opportunity to compete...You still think UCF couldn't compete with Alabama during their undefeated season a few years back? Seriously? All a bullshit excuse to perpetuate the myth...I am surprised at you southern cause I thought you were smarter than this...You can't have it both ways...You either believe in competition or you don't...Either the games matter or they don't...Right now the games don't matter...This so called playoff is a preconceived farce...
@the-funeral-director Nothing better than watching Boeheim and Sorryexcuse go one and done!
@the-funeral-director. Can’t compare the playoffs in football to basketball because football is a much more physical sport and it’s 4 teams vs 64 team playoff. Let’s see how Cincinnati does against Georgia and remember the Tide run up the score on the Bullpups and Georgia also lost to Florida. I also don’t think CC could beat Cincinnati, Cincinnati has better players. FD, coastal Carolina signature win is against a garbage Kansas team, that’s their best win in their history from what I seen. Don’t get me wrong I respect CC and I think they are a good football team I just think it’s crazy to put them up there with the top 4 teams in the country.

??? Alabama had a chance to tie at the end of the game, wouldn't call that an azzz kicking.
@roaminglion..So much for Coastal Carolina, you need to get past he likes of LIberty first, nevertheless some power 5 teams, before the final 4 is even a remote possibility..AND Ive seen enough of INdiana, theyd get blasted in the finals..
@culture-thrives that was a good game last night between Liberty and coastal Carolina. Liberty almost give the game away why don’t these dudes just knee the ball down for goodness sakes and kick a dang FG and win the game. Why take a chance running the ball? Just for the record I believe these are 2 good football teams for their level of play but for goodness sakes they’ll get killed if they get in the playoffs they just don’t have the horses.
@southern-psu-fan..Was a damn good game..And the runner on previous play, at least seemed to know, it was best to get down..So it was really mysterious why everyone wasnt on the same page on the last play and the replay showed the runner trying to stop before the end zone..
AND I only saw the highlights, so it was tough to tell if TBs Jon Gruden did anything wrong, but apparently they took a knee, then kicked a FG with 19 seconds left, and Dolphins out of TOs How they ever lost, I have no idea, a penalty hurt, but Dolphins kicked a FG to win it, 26-25...Does anyone know if Gruden could have killed more clock?

It's interesting that when Coastal Carolina gets passed up and has to play in a nothing bowl game, everyone uses it as an example of how they weren't good enough. But when Auburn gets beat by UCF it's about how Auburn didn't want to be there.
Anyone ever think Coastal Carolina felt shafted because after this year, and being ranked in the top 15, they got to play Liberty in the "who cares" bowl? Was there every a greater example of a team being told "it's cute that you guys think we'd ever give you a chance"
@roaminglion. That was a good game last night and both teams were about even I think libery has the better coach Hugh Freeze. Either team could’ve won that game. The QB for Liberty was the difference that dude can play. Roam, if we had an eight team playoff I would be all for a team like Cincinnati gettin in but with 4 we can’t take a chance of a Cinderella team coming along every 10 years we have to let the heavyweights fight it out. Just my opinion but if we went to an 8 team playoff they probably still wouldn’t let these teams like CC in.

I agree with you there, 8 is the way to go
After looking at ESPN Clemson and ND score I will say teams like ND and Alabama need to be punished for losing their last game of the season just like all the other teams do. ND loses 34-10 last game of the season and gets rewarded with a playoff birth what a bunch of hog chit, A&M should’ve got the playoff spot because even though they lost earlier in the year teams do get better what you seen with ND the last game of the season is what you get with ND!
Ole woody got so mad he hit the Clemson player lol. I just watched the play where Ohio State was playing Clemson back in the day and Clemson beat ‘em and woody attacked the Clemson player man that was funny it’s not like Woody could’ve hurt him lol. Gotta give the old dude some credit he show did like to win lol
I don’t know about y’all but I hope Sarks gets another chance at being a head coach I love it when people get knocked down and get back up swinging to be better. He’s made mistakes just like everybody else has I’m pulling for him.
All I know is PSU is getting another verbal from a 4* on new years day. My sources have already confirmed.

Yes M. Flowers would be a great get. If he verbals and this trend continues, 2022 would be the highest ranked class in the Franklin era. Even without Flowers I think PSU sits at #3 nationally. Still sooo early but I love the start.
If I missed this posted on here elsewhere, sorry
@been-there-ii I think it was he and Menet that were suppose to have hired agents shortly after the season ended.
IMHO I'm glad Fries left, have no idea how he made the Big Ten squad when he was essentially replaced and moved to another spot on the line.
