College football (non-Duke)

[Thain]

UVA just doesn't want to win.

 

[aiw]

UNC will have 2 last minute/second wins in back to back weeks

 

[physicsfactor]

Really need Miami to come through for us next week or UNC will win the Coastal

 

[DrKlahn]

Good to see that program catch a break.

 

[StopThePumpFakesShav]

Miami opened as a 10 point favorite over UNC and line is creeping up to two TDs. Seems way high to me. Anyone else agree?

 

[DurhamSon]

Maybe vegas factors in a retard opposing head coach when accounting for your teams' win the previous week

 

[aiw]

Duke #24 in College Football Playoff Rankings

 

[aiw]

Gonna take 25 minutes to go over the first 6 teams.

 

[aiw]

#1 Miss St
#2 FSU
#3 Auburn
#4 Ole Miss

#5 Oregon
#6 Alabama

What are they going to talk about for the next 23 minutes?

 

[aiw]

Apparently, Ole Miss 2 spots ahead of Alabama is a shock to the system despite Ole Miss beating Alabama.

 

[aiw]

Why do they need to rank 25 teams?

 

[DrKlahn]

I think I heard the words "body of work" used. Guys have played like six games.

 

[Rollins]

Apparently, Ole Miss 2 spots ahead of Alabama is a shock to the system despite Ole Miss beating Alabama.

Bama's best win is West Virginia

 

[aiw]

I didn't say it was a shock to the system, the tv guys did.

 

[Rollins]

I knew what you meant. Alabama can have 3 losses and there will be pundits who will claim they are the best team in the country.

I guess Fla/Georgia has a hold on the 3:30 SEC slot no matter the state of the teams? Auburn/Ole Miss should be then.

Bama's best win is West Virginia

Phil Steele just said on The Herd that he would have Alabama favored over any team in a neutral sight game.

interesting take.

 

[physicsfactor]

I'm sure the Arkansas game clouds my judgement a little, but Bama just ain't that good this season. I see them losing at least two of the LSU, Miss St, and Auburn games.

I get it from a spread/Vegas perspective, the Miss's haven't been at the top long enough to be trusted against Saban on a neutral field, Auburn is probably a bit worse than them and FSU has not looked like world beaters.
