Kentucky is ranked 17th. First time ranked in 11 years.

I believe Allen is  turning the program around , like what I see. They certainly have some young talent. Will they be top tier in B10 this year ? I doubt it but I think they are very capable of a bowl

Ball ST was outclassed by IU , and I don't think that says much for the Fighting Irish . I think ND will be out of the top 20 before long if they don't figure things out quickly , they are far over ra

Dexter Lawrence, the very good Dlineman for Clemson, apparently failed a drug test and may not be able to play in the playoffs if his B sample comes back positive.

.....and now the starting left guard for Alabama has been suspended for the game against Oklahoma for violating team rules.

Will be interesting to see how this hurts their teams. Bama will probably be fine. Lawrence being possibly out helps ND quite a bit though, IMO.

Not a good half for ND. NDs play calling has been wack, not sure what they are trying to do.

They don't look good today. Clemson is definitely on their game today. 

 

Michigan flat out sucked today

 

I was hoping for a better showing by ND.  Book has not looked good, IMO, but that Lawerence kid has looked great.

ND won't be considered for the playoffs for a while no matter how good they look in the future. They keep getting these big bowl games and get blown out every time. They need to get in an actual conference, not just partially play against one, and compete for a conference championship before they should ever be considered again.

Those are garbage bowl games.. I said "Big" bowl games. LSU hasn't been "good" since Saban left. 

 

The Alabama title game they got blasted and they got blasted by Ohio State 2 years ago.

ND % the bed in the playoff against arguably the best team in the country.

 

OSU didn't even make the playoff because they % the bed in October against a team that was 3-3...

 

:thinking:

 

Yawn... OSU will be Rose Bowl champs and well.. ND got a participation trophy... well done boys!

There's only one champ at the end of the year.

 

OSU is participating in a meaningless game...  against a Pac-12 team...  :P

 

Maybe that's what ND should have played in beings that's the only bowls they can win :lol:

 

On a serious note, what I said about ND possibly being overlooked in the future, I think is what's happened to my Buckeyes when they got blasted by Clemson 2 years ago. The CFP has kept that monkey on our back ever since. The loss to Purdue, even with destroying Michigan, was going to be our downfall. Hell, they wouldn't even rank us ahead of a 2 loss Georgia team. I said the week before the Purdue game we were screwed and with the way Purdue played I don't think anyone could have beat them that night.

 

I really don't want the playoff expanded, but with the CFP's continued clear bias of the SEC, they wanted to put Georgia in so bad and if Oklahoma would have lost, even with OSU winning, they would have put 2 loss Georgia in over a 1 loss OSU. 

 

Bama and Clemson should be a good title game, again..

Amen.  I hate to admit it, but Georgia (and even OSU) would probably have made the playoff more interesting than ND did... that game was embarrassing.  :facepalm:

I don't believe that the CFP has a bias toward the SEC, at least not one that is undeserved.  I tend to watch a lot of the teams from the different conferences and it looks to me that, at least at the top of the conference, the SEC has the best teams.

 

I believe that either Georgia or Ohio State would have fared better than ND last night.

 

Alabama and Clemson have looked like the two best teams almost the entire year.  I just hope for a good game, no blow outs.

      Playoffs? Why Not?

      By MB-ColtsFan · Posted

      I think the bolded is my biggest concern, with Steichen at the top of the list.  A rookie HC that wants to call his own offensive plays.  Hmm...seen that movie before and didn't like it.  I'm hoping the same result doesn't play out again.   He also has a rookie QB that he's going to want to talk to after some series during the game.  I'm hoping he'll lean heavy on Cam & Cooter during the games and not call his own plays.   I would love to see us make the playoffs this year. It would give the whole team and organization a huge boost.  Not seeing it this year because key elements are too young and inexperienced, but I'm not saying it's impossible.

      Colts sign LB Genard Avery

      By 1959Colts · Posted

      https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2023/06/01/colts-sign-genard-avery-waive-darius-hagans/   ...Avery spent last season with the Buccaneers, appearing in nine games. He finished with a sack, one tackle for loss, and five QB hits in 72 defensive snaps and 164 special teams snaps. Avery was a fifth-round pick by the Browns in 2018. He recorded 4.5 sacks as a rookie but fell out of favor under Cleveland’s next coaching staff and was traded to the Eagles midway through the 2019 season. He played with Philadelphia through 2021, recording 3.0 sacks in 35 games with the Eagles. While he signed with the Steelers as a free agent in March 2022, he was released in August. As a corresponding roster move, the Colts waived running back Darius Hagans...

      By teganslaw · Posted

      We could  if everything goes well. I'm optimistic abut Richardson, but am not thinking playoffs this early. The season hasn't started and there is no way to tell what will happen. I've been let down when people were hyping Wentz and Ryan, so I'm trying not to get overly excited regarding playoffs.
