PSU - 42
Wisco - 10

...hopefully

 

If that happens, they have to get in over tOSU. Have to.

 

So anxious for the Buffs game. Boulder is going to be crazy tonight if we win.

 

so will madison

 

The fact that just about every prediction I've seen has Washington winning...is only making me more nervous

 

Imagine the chaos if Florida, Colorado, and Penn St all win.

 

Hoping they're wrong!

You guys are probably going to win though. I think it'll be close, but our special teams are going to do something dumb to cost us the game.

 

I would guess Larry Scott mighty be pissed if they lose because that'll knock them out of the playoffs, I mean Colorado is cool and all but I'd rather have Washington in the playoffs then like penn state. Fuck Clemson

 

I think that is going to be the deciding factor as well. Dawgs have some of the best returners with John Ross on kickoffs and Dante Pettis on punts.

Has your coverage on teams been poor? Also, how strong of a leg does your kicker have? Does he get a lot of touchbacks?

Because yeah, I agree that I think that could be what decides it.

 

Larry Scott needs to be fired into the sun. God he's awful.

 

I can't stand how like no one carries the p12 network, I'm not watching that crap on my iPad yet I get most other networks for free other than sec.

 

Our special teams coverage has been pretty lackluster. Our kicker is not good, most of his kicks are left short. If you guys capitalize on that, you've got it.

 

Interesting. Should be a great game. Mac is building something cool there. I think the Dawgs go to Boulder next year too

I imagine they'll kick away from Ross but the other guy back there (Austin Joyner) while no Ross, surely is no slouch either.

 

He was on local radio yesterday and was asked again about it and he said something to the likes of....

"Well if you're a real hardcore fan, you can pay $25 a month and sign up for a subscription based service with Sling (who recently started to carry the channel)"

Yeah ok, Lar...I'm gonna pay $25 for a subscription service just for the PAC-12 network on top of my DirecTV bill.

Get fucked, pal.

 

Yea, I think they're coming to Folsom next season. This whole season has been surreal. We've been so bad for as long as I've lived in Boulder, Mac has done a great job.

 

i generally would prefer washington to win and virginia tech to beat clemson, giving us the acc spot, but i'd be fine with going into tomorrow knowing we are playing for our spot in the playoff

 

Exactly, luckily most channels air the big games but there's always a few games they don't get. It's much worse with basketball than football though, like cal gets one game a month if they're lucky in general but that's just one example. If Oregon didn't make that run last year they'd probably be on maybe twice a month like a few years ago. I haven't seen Washington on at all and I really want to see fultz, it sucks.

 

That would make literally everyone happy, well except aof cause he's a buffs fan

 

Is there a scenario where Ohio State doesn't make it? I would like there to be, but I just don't see the committee knocking them out completely.

 

538 has their odds at 92%. it's weird. they almost seem like the most surefire bet to be in, even over bama.

 

sorry, i read that wrong. osu is at 94% and bama is at 92%. lol.

 

Has there every been so many teams in the top ten that have played against each other at the end of a season before? Feels like this is a rare happening.

Bama: none
OSU: 3-1
Clemson: none
Washington: 1st tbd tonight
Michigan: 3-1
Wisconsin: 0-2 and a tbd 3rd
Penn State: 1-1 and a tbd 3rd
Colorado: 0-1 and a tbd 2nd
Oklahoma: 0-1 and a tbd 2nd
Oklahoma St: 1st tbd tomorrow

You could almost make the argument quite easily that Michigan deserves to be in no matter who wins between Wis/PSU and definitely if Colorado upsets Washington.

 

except michigan's loss to iowa being the worst out of any of those losses kinda gets rid of that

why are people saying losses don't matter or are "flukes" when it comes to osu and michigan but yet they are the most damning evidence as to why wisconsin, psu and colorado can't get in hmmmmm i wonder why that issssss

 

I agree with this, if either Washington or Clemson loses, I feel like the Big Ten champion gets in, or at least should get in. Losing 2 of their last 3 kind of keeps Michigan out for me, personally.
