I'm home sick today watching these CFB shows and its old for people dogging FSU.The bottom line as long as Jameis Winston is their Qb and they have the best kicker in country FSU will be hard to beat.FSU s off line that has everybody back from last year's highest scoring offense in CFB history hasn't performed to last year's team.FSU's Green is one of the All Time great receivers to ever play CFB has also been a savior then u add some freshman contributing
..Interesting....no need to wonder what this team would do if it has to play LSU,Bama,Ark,AuburnTxA&m,MissSt because it won't ever happen.Give credit to FSU this year schedule...OklaSt has had some good teams in recent years,beat Clemson with sub par backup Qb,Irish team that played their best game of season,a decent at best Louisville team that will be very good next year
...and at Miami whose team has improved with Al Golden who is seeking his first signature win.There is a reason FSU is only a 2point favorite.Then with Florida's tough D and now they have found a Qb...Muschamp will have the Gators extremely pumped if they beat Scar going into Tallahassee...Like him or not Winston will be a Hall of Fame NFL Qb if he stays healthy.He has a unique almost superpower of putting passes on a dime.I'm not sure folks really understand how good he is.Jason Sehorn might be the worse CFB analyst I've ever seen.He.is an idiot.

1st off before i get to my Clemson questions boom:

1. If Les Miles becomes the HC at Michigan i will be spending more time talking Michigan rowing and hockey. and won't watch Michigan play football.

2. If Jim Harbaugh isn't the next Michigan HC its a failure by Michigan. The only choice 4 years ago was Harbaugh and the only choice now is Harbaugh


Now Boom to my Clemson questions. I too like them as a small fave but i have 2 questions:

1. With the safety being ejected for targeting vs Wake do you see that having an impact on the game?
2. How did Beasley play LY against the option because i honestly don't remember

BOL boom

FSU or anyone else could win every game 100-0 and there would be people like you in the world claiming they should do better.


True story...

Conversation the other day with this DA goes like this.

I think the SEC should be allowed to have by rule at least 3 teams every year in the playoff and the rest of the country should get that one spot.

I said Why?

He says, SEC Baby....


SMH  .............Why are u talking to District Attorney?

 Harbaugh has ties to Michigan and the alumni may be prepared to offer him whatever it takes.
 
 As far as being on fantasy island I am there as well hoping he lands in Chicago, but reading your post above Eagle it seems this is not a deserted island. Winston in the Hall of Fame? As in the NFL? He may be more likely to end up in prison at the rate he is going brother.

I'll put my life savings (not that its that much) that Harbaugh goes to Michigan at the end of the year. And this is coming from a Buckeye fan. He for sure isnt staying in SF.

If you believe FSU would beat :
Bama
Auburn
Miss St
Ole Miss
LSU
Oregon 
TCU
Baylor
Even tOSU
Then there's not much I can say to help you.. If FSU loses they will drop outta the top 15, so what does that tell you ? The WHOLE COUNTRY sees that they only have 1 player.. Now that Player happens to be great and possibly the best in CFB... But 1 player doesn't make a team and eventually its gonna catch up with em.. They should have 2, maybe 3 losses right now with THAT schedule.. The ACC shouldn't even be considered a "power 5" conf... The MAC has more comp than that terrible conf... Just flat out fukin terrible football in that shite show.. And I'm not trying to burn your Clemson team, but let's get real, they suck and so does the conf... It is what it is ! And I know you hate the SEC is getting all the love, but the SEC has the best players, coaches, and competition in the country... The NFL draft proves that every year BY A MILE !! Not even close to close...lol

Warcameagle said: [/Quote] People say "Oh,Les just sucks and thats why LSU lost"... This is my view on that..He lost to the greatest football coach since Bear Bryant.You can say it's a matter of an opinion,but I don't know how u can argue Saban isn't the best CFB coach of the modern era.He has won 3/National Titles at Bama and won 1@LSU...How many years did Tom Osbourne coach Nebraska with a cupcake schedules before he finally won a National Title?I think Osbourne is a legend,but Saban is the better coach.So people are gonna dog Miles for losing to the greatest coach of the modern era really.This is very debatable what Miles will do if offered.I'm sure his wife will be the biggest deciding factor.U look how much his team has improved from the beg to end and it's remarkable because how young they are.Does he leave a very ,young talented team.My guess is Les and his wife Love Baton Rouge.If I'm an athletic director Les Miles is in my top 10 simply because of the fact he is an outstanding recruiter and assembles not good,but great asst coaching staffs.People whether y'all want to label him a good coach or not you are hard to beat I'd u have great players and coaches.I've even heard Jimmy DA Freak say Saban isn't the best X's and O's coach,but nobody recruits better.Alabama isn't the easiest place to recruit because there aren't  [/Quote]

Dude you lost all credibility by comparing Tom Osborne to Nick Saban. You can't be serious, and forget the Les Miles Michigan talk, we all know if Jim Harbaugh get fired from the 9ers he will be the top choice to be the next coach for the Wolverines!

We get it.  You hate FSU.  You tell everyone, every week that this is the week FSU goes down.  First it was Clemson, then it was ND, then it was the Ville, and now it's Miami.  I know you will copy and paste the same response for UF in 2 weeks.  Cool story bro.

We didn't need Winston to beat Clemson, so explain this "one man team" again?

Also, you should watch more football on Sundays because it's nothing but FSU son.  We are all over every draft lately (including the current rookie of the year).

If they lose to Bama....Which I think the SEC would love by the way....It only helps the conference.

Why?

We see what happens when  SEC west teams lose.... the loses are almost in a sense " forgiven ".....look at Ole Miss. Lose back to back games and basically fall only 7 - 8 spots....

Auburn loses as a 24 point favorite @ home and only falls from 3 to 9 in the AP... What a fukin joke BTW....

Look, i been saying it all year. IF you lose @ home as a Double digit FAVORITE.... your asss should be eliminated from the playoff discussion. PERIOD.

In a nut shell, Miss st losing is good for the league. It " shows " that dreadful " strength "..... You know, the same strength that allows a team that got blown out 59-0 to come up and beat the #3 team in the country as 24 point underdogs WITH A BACK UP QB no less....


What does all that mean basically?  It's called mediocrity......

shhh... don't tell EsecPN....they get mad when you call a spade a spade..

Yeah, losing Robert Smith hurts... great player.... But we are playing a option team so I think we might be ok.

Beasley played well last year.... The defense played GT solid....gave up late garbage TD's but all in all.. ok.

Look, this GT team is the best Ive seen under PJ. This is gonna be a battle. But here the difference.....


In close games IMO, you either have a player ( preferably a QB ) who can lead your team....put the team on his back so to speak, or you don't. I personally think this kid Watson is the truth. Right now I think if he stays healthy, he will break every single record Boyd ever had, easily....

If Florida can beat S.C, you think he keeps his job?

I wouldn't keep him if he won the EAST somehow... Just asking your opinion

Oregon has the better resume...


By the same token.... I'm not lobbying for Oregon. As I said, if you lose as a double digit favorite @ home..... I say, you are out

if Bama beats MSU, will you have them above Oregon?


This is what drives me crazy..........

Stop using Words like " a big ten team ".....Stop watching espn dude

No, they beat Michigan st.... a good team.

You/the brainwashed country needs to stop thinking in terms like that.

Haha, I think you have me confused with someone else?? Only team I have predicted FSU losing to is Louisville.... My sons 10yr old team could beat Clemson, so no freakin way I thought that.. Also at the 1st of the season I thought FSU was gonna cruise to a NC... But after watching them play, I see they're just not a good "team"... They're a decent team with a GREAT "QB"... I'm a Bama fan and I will tell you right now I believe there's plenty of teams out there I would put money on to beat the Tide.. That's what I'm saying about FSU... The Noles are going thru the same thing that Bama went thru in 2010, except their WINNING the sloppy games.. But it will end sooner or later, cause Winston can't do it all, all the time... Those teams I listed have better teams than FSU, IMO... A good defense with a serviceable offense will beat FSU, especially the way they've been playing.. Miami has been playing VERY disciplined football and taking control of the LOS... This game will be very close and I honestly believe Miami has the edge and nothing to lose.. But they gotta stop Winston on a few drives, that's easier said than done..

1. Miss St 1 
2. FSU 3 
3. Oregon 2
4. Alabama 5
5. TCU 4 
6. Arizona St 6
7. Baylor 7
8. OSU 8
9. Auburn 9
10. Ole Miss 10

It will be interesting to see if the committee awards style points for big wins. If so, then TCU could jump Alabama and Baylor could jump Arizona St. 

SEC bias gets put to the test this week. Based solely on last rankings and this weeks outcomes, OSU should be ranked ahead of Auburn and Ole Miss in my opinion. TCU should be ranked ahead of Alabama. I would bet more than $5 that the SEC teams get the nod again. "Best 4 teams" is subjective.  I believe Auburn is a better team than LSU and Tex A&M. However, you have to factor the results of the games played into the rankings. If we are just going with top 4 vegas odds favorites, then we should just chunk the committee and let Vegas tell us who the best 4 are. 

Pretty close. I disagree with FSU being jumped by Oregon, but it won't hurt FSU's chances of being in the final 4. If anything, it shows FSU must win out to stay in the top 4.
I don't have a problem with TCU being ahead of Alabama. Again, Alabama can help their cause more than TCU can.
If Alabama beats Miss St in a close game, and assuming rest of top 10 wins their games, here is next week's rankings:

1. Alabama
2. FSU
3. Oregon
4. Miss St
5. TCU
6. OSU
7-9 Baylor Az St, Auburn
10 Ole Miss

If Auburn pounds Georgia, then they will take a bigger leap then they deserve. It's all going to come down to strength of schedule. Auburn will end up with 6 games against top 25 teams. If Alabama or Miss St. play in SEC title game, they will have 6 as well. TCU will have 5. Oregon and FSU will have 4 each. Baylor will only have 3. Only one team will have played 7 games against top 25 teams, and that's Arizona St.
