    An 8 team playoff with your scenario, or just a straight 5 power conf champs + 3 wildcards instantly becomes a defacto 13-team playoff, because there are 10 teams playing in those 5 conference championship games. Today would have been the first day for the "playoffs" to start, round 1 was...

    I've officially made up my mind(not that anyone cares) Ohio St and Fla St deserve to be in on the lone fact that they had to play 1 more game against ranked teams than Baylor and TCU did. Baylor and TCU got an extra bye week during the season so as not to be idle this weekend. What did...

    Problem is, both ways have their flaws, I just chose 1 and went with it(since it was the easier one to find, ESPN lists season results with rankings as of the day played next to the team names) Teams do start out way overrated (South Carolina immediately comes to mind) But some teams take...

    I can't decide who I want to get fucked more, Ohio St or the Big 12. I really, really dislike Ohio St, but I'd really like to see the entire B12 conference get the shaft. So torn Also, can't wait to see Alabama or Oregon wrong-hole Florida St in the 1st round of the playoffs...

    Apparently he's on the "1 upgrade per half decade" phone plan. Hell, last year I broke my S4 and had to go back to an S3 for 2 months before I had an upgrade available to go to the Note 3. I felt like I was living in a 3rd world country going back to that S3. I'm definitely spoiled.

    That's interesting. I didn't know the playoff #1 seed got to choose their bowl location in the 1st round of the playoffs. Alabama will get to choose either Rose or Sugar(they'll obviously choose Sugar) Alabama choosing Rose would be hilarious though, would send Oregon to New Orleans against...

    I don't blame the B12, I blame Texas for running everyone off. They put the conference in a bad/awkward position, which they don't care about because Texas is laughing all the way to the bank. regardless. Sucks for the rest of the teams though.

    B12 has to pick up 2 more teams, as of right now it's an NCAA rule that you can't have a championship game unless you have 12 teams or more. Which 2 teams do they go after? Keep in mind that absolutely no one would leave the Pac12, Big10, or SEC to join them. I'd guess Cincinnati(to give...

    If these games finish the way they are currently going, I could see Ohio St taking the TCU/Baylor spot in the playoff. Lack of a B12 title game might bite them in the ass. TCU could have beat a 2-10 team that was winless in conference by 100, and it won't look as impressive as Ohio St...

    These title games are all shaping up to be blowouts, Oregon won huge, Alabama won big, Ohio St is absolutely destroying Wisconsin, and while GTech jumped out to an early lead, Florida state has come roaring back and Fl St has ALL the momentum now, this game could get out of hand too

    Have to agree. The Mu/Bama game had only a couple big plays, only 1 turnover, nothing really happened of note in special teams or in the return game. Maybe 1 sack on both sides, no picks, very few batted balls(maybe 1) It was just a straight-forward football game where Bama was good enough...

    07 Was still the craziest year I've ever seen in college football. To end the season, the #1 ranked team lost in 3 of the last 4 weeks (#1 Ohio St lost, then #1 LSU lost, then #1 Missouri lost, and Ohio St and LSU got back to the top of the polls). The end of that season was a total...

    Agree, I've done it twice now and each time came out amazing, the entire steak was pink/red with basically zero grey band, yet I was able to sear the holy shit out of the exterior of the steak. Perfect steak in 10 minutes or less on a super-hot grill.

    And just FYI, anyone that wants to see an 8-team playoff soon, root for Missouri tomorrow. Because I guarantee if somehow Missouri wins and the SEC ends up with no representative in the 4-team playoff, you'll see an 8-team playoff immediately, starting next year. Probably the 5 conference...

    My main issue is, local pizza places are almost always better than Pizza Hut/Papa Johns/Digiorno, but goddamnit, I hate paying $25 for a single pizza(if you don't have a coupon) The price of a pizza without a special sale/coupon is goddamned ridiculous. They're good, but that $7 Digiorno isn't...

    I'd shank someone for some authentic tzatziki sauce from a Greek diner. The closest authentic Greek restaurant is 20 miles away from me. I do have a crazy Turkish grocery store + restaurant near me that makes some badass kebobs and gyros though.

    Cracker Barrel is pricey? I don't think they have a single meal on their menu that is over $9.99. I also second the Monte Cristo from Cheddar's. You can't go wrong with what is basically a deep-fried ham&cheese sandwich. The raspberry dipping sauce they serve with it is badass too...

    I've done crock-pot lasagna, but then again, lasagna noodles take a LONG time to cook if you aren't boiling them first. They need several hours to soften up when you're cooking in a crockpot.

    No, not always, depends on the game. They're real close at 1440p. In fact, some games will be even more confusing because 1 card will have a higher average framerate at 1440p, but the other card have the higher minimum frame rate at 1440p, and both are important. Look through some...

    Oh yes, our QB isnt good. He's a Sophomore with a Canon arm but zero finesse. He just rifles the ball right through receivers hands on routes less than 10 yards or so. He only completes 50 percent of his passes. Our passing game is wildly inconsistent. Our team this year is very much like...

    That's probably fair depending on how close the game is, but there's no team in college football right now that would be favored in a game against Alabama on a neutral field. I guess everyone is overrated if Bama beats them I think I'm fairly reasonable about my Mizzou fandom. I've never...
