Gabriel would slaughter our defense. He's so quick we'd never get a glove on him and he'd pick the secondary apart like vultures picking the carcass of a dead water buffalo.

Yeh...but shaggy would pick apart Oregons defense so it would be a wash 😃
CFP just licking their chops to leave out an 11-2 ACC team for a 9-3 SEC team.
I like seeing franklin and psu getting their butts kicked. Don't care that the ducks are new to the conference. After nebby, psu is the team I like to see lose.
This ain’t real football
Real football is < 150 yards of offense
< 5 first downs
PUNTS!!

Yep. I want them to lose by 50
Anybody not named Iowa can choke on a fat one.
I wonder if CBS is happy that the B1G championship is no longer B1G East vs. West. LOL
What the hell, Ducks!?
WhyTF is this a 4-pt game before halftime!?!?!?
You should be up 40 by now!! (I wish!)

“We just feel Alabama is a better overall team than SMU”
They did it to an undefeated ACC team, they'll do it to an 11-2 one.
Remember when Traeshon Holden was supposed to come to Iowa, but rumored he didn't make the grades, but the truth was he just didn't want to go to Iowa.
Really poor clock management by oregon to end the half. Very Iowa like.
Wonder if some of these conferences will realize that having a conference championship game hurts their playoff chances more often than it helps.
If the ACC named the champion based on regular season. It's SMU and they are in the playoffs.
Now.... Probably no ACC team
The thing is not long ago NOT having a CCG used to hurt the top teams because they would get jumped by conference champs.
Now they're possibly hurting the bubble teams.
Penn State looks to be crumbling. Too many mistakes against the number one team in the country.
Just shorten the regular seasons to something like 8 to 10 games [nothing but games vs own conference opponents], while making it a full 64-team playoff - ala the bball NCAA Tourney - and be done with it.
I mean, if we're gonna actually label fringe contenders as "bubble teams", that's where we're ultimately gonna end up anyways right?

After seeing the wear and tear of these CCG games, particularly between two teams who are getting in the field anyhow. I wonder if Ohio State, Notre Dame, Alabama or Indiana really feel bad about missing playing in one.
Yeah the winner gets a bye. But they are playing an extra game to get a neutral site second round game. Meanwhile they are playing another neutral site game against a really good team. Penn State will be worse for wear, same for Texas. Meanwhile Ohio State gets to sit at home and get another home game because they lost to a mediocre Michigan squad.

While what you say is true, getting a home game in the playoffs tacks one more on the total you gotta win to win it all.
IE, The Top 4 only need to win 3 games to be national champs & the other 8 have to win 4 games.
Way to go for 2 for no reason Franklin. What an idiot
Because it’s a big game and they’re still in it. Jim has to start effing things up at some point.
Good point. Four elimination games. My point is based off physical toll. Is an elimination game at home vs an SMU harder than a CCG against a Texas or Penn State? Rust will also be a factor imo.
Oregon, Georgia, Boise and ASU(?) will be off for a month. They'll be playing against a Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, Clemson or whomever that just played the week before. It's going to be interesting.
Come on Franklin. Score the touchdown and miss the conversion. As somebody with no rooting interest, I want chaos.
