filling out my bowl card. Who do you like Nevada or ark. St and Clemson or ND. Man I’m thinking ND might beat Clemson. Clemson ain’t beat nobody worth a crap?
Arkansas State / Nevada is a hard one, basically 50/50... If I had to pick, I think Arkansas St?
As for Clemson / ND, I don't think ND has the speed to keep up with Clemson. IMO Clemson has gotten better through the year, and their new QB is playing very well. Yes, they had a soft schedule but that doesn't mean they aren't good. I think ND got a bit lucky playing Michigan so early too.
I'd pick Clemson.
That is a fair analysis Roam, except for the last part..UM is the most over-rated team in country and got exposed in Columbus ..How I wish ND had them in playoffs, they'd beat them easily..
You do realize ND beat them rather easily with their now 2nd string QB, and 2nd string RB..That the now first string QB while going 8-0, completed 70% of his passes while throwing for almost 2500 yards,and 19TDs..And since being installed as first string RB in game 5, the guy ran for nearly 1,000 yds and 12TDS..The ND team that beat UM is much, much better now; UM is basically the same as OSU showed you..Offense is stodgy, dull, unimaginative...UM was beneficiary of a very weak Big 10..
I agree that Clemson is speedier, and playing their best ball now..That being said, I think ND wins this
Yeah true, but Michigan was a shell of itself on offense week 1. Ohio State hammered them, but I think they would hammer ND as well. I don't really buy ND, they faced very few good teams. A 5 loss Northwestern, or Syracuse were their toughest games outside of Michigan.
Ian Book is good, but hasn't played any semblace of a defense yet. The best defense Book has seen as a starter is USC at #54.
Looks like Ga Tech is bringing Geoff Collins back home to coach the Jackets. Another coach that George O’leary and Ralph Friedgen helped get started. I’m sasified with the hire because he did a great job at Temple. How in the heck does a guy from Ga Tech become head coach at Temple lol. Does Temple still have a few penn st guys on the coaching staff and will he bring some of ‘em to Ga Tech?
