A&M and even Alabama should be ranked ahead of Indiana. A&M is undefeated against a much more difficult schedule, including a victory over their precious Notre Dame in South Bend. Alabama has played against the 6th ranked schedule and managed to survive 4 consecutive weeks against top 16 opponents, without a Bye Week to break it up, after a season opening blunder against FSU. I don’t think another SEC program has ever done that. The committee won’t pull the trigger though. They want a 1 vs 2 Big Ten Championship game.

Should be interesting.
Barring an upset, it’s OSU’s tournament to lose...again.

Would it surprise you?
We always find a way to make the Florida game tougher than it should be andbthis squad likes to make it extremely tough on themselves.
Yep, there were some bad Florida teams in the 2010s we should have beaten but whatever voodoo doll they have on us, it keeps working.
 
Did not. WTF use is that?

I’m just so happy that our 🟩🌊 knocked Penny College at Memphis out of the playoffs! We would have never heard the end of that!

I thought Uno was a card game.

Absolutely most people think of UNO ™ as a card game, rather than a school. (what is hysterical is that I dictated this reply into my phone and the phone thinks I’m talking about the card name and added the TM for trademark).

Assuming UNO does get brought back into the LSU system, based on the mock ups of the logos in that tweet, I will refer to them as NO LSU 😉

I was waiting for the Draw 4 Wild to get played.
 
NIL has created more competition. In what world do we live in where Indiana is a perennial CFP participant and Vanderbilt is on the precipice of being a participant as long as they win their last two games? Just because the big boys keep winning the trophy doesn’t mean there is less competition. This is the most parity we have seen in the sport since 2007.

Horrible playcalling down in the red zone by the Colts. Trying to get too cute with wildcat and a pitch play. Either kick the FG or take some shots at the end zone. Now you get zero points.
