Hate to Beat This Dead Horse

Bama and LSU's defense aren't at their historical best this year. Defensive lines aren't as dominant. OSU on the other hand has done all that you could ask of them against their opponents and look to have top 15 picks on the DL and secondary.

I took them at +900 to win it all after seeing their defense after the first 3 weeks and have been extremely pleased with my bet. Think they're at like +350 now.

You may be right, but there’s a long history of reality being a bit less than expectation from that team. Could be it all changes this year ... I’d believe it. They just don’t play the kind of kids the SEC does. Auburn and UGA are each more talented than all teams OSU will play except PSU.

I would have liked to see Oklahoma and Bama meet in 1st round (Sooners win, even thought I dislike them). But they just don't play much defense out there in 90 points a game league.

As much as everyone has a love affair with Clemson on this board...

They will not make the Natty.

Trevor Lawrence has a love affair with himself and he tries to hard to show off HIS OWN attributes, and it's really making him look bad this year.... OH And yes it's making Dabo look bad too. I've stuck up for Dabo because he always ripped his players a new one when they made stupid mistakes, but he let's Trevor do it over and over...

Clemson has an extremely good shot at making playoffs, but I'd almost bet they get knocked out.

they will be undefeated and make theplayoffs. This is a down year for them. Congrats on taking a victory lap while we are on the outside looking in at a bowl in El Paso.

BIG 10 IMO is extremely strong this year. I understand Wiscy had that horrible upset but they were playing extremely well to start the season. And to boot you've got an undefeated Minnesota team that looks like a complete team and had an extremely impressive win today. And yep, I'm with you on PSU. Great defense and an offense that is limited when talking playoff teams but is pretty talented.

If OSU wins out in the regular season and BIG 10 championship game that will tell you a lot.

Maybe. Probably. But there’s truth in the mutli-year results that you should be careful not to ignore based on half a season.
 
Just want em in the top 4. Keep the ACC relevant. Don’t want PAC 10 type status just in case we rise again.
