I find funny how every team between #3-#9 got beat (often badly)...other than Ohio State. CFP committee got it wrong this year, big time.

eh... howd purdue do in its bowl game

OU/OSU, neither were going to beat alabama. They are a beast this year, and probably the best alabama team in recent history.

Great win by Clemson!

UncleWede · 01-08-2019, 09:29 AM

I only saw the first half, but Clemson didn't make mistakes, Alabama did.

RickFLM4 · 01-16-2019, 02:41 PM

Lots of transfers this year...

Everyone wants those free burgers at the end of the year

Hurts to OU

and OU blocked Austin Kendalls transfer to WVU

interesting turn of evens for Kendall who was the projected starter until they landed the #1 dual threat qb and hurts transfers in

I saw that about Kendall as well. Presumably their basis for blocking is that it is within the same conference? Have they said why they are blocking?

It will be interesting to see what the NCAA does with some of the non-graduate transfer petitions this year. A lot of guys are going to petition to get eligibility that would not have been granted historically. If the NCAA denies them they will be criticized because coaches can move on but players can’t, etc. etc. If they grant a lot of them it might be difficult to justify why one is granted over another and conceivably result in elimination of the “sit out for a year” rule.

Some of the transfer guys work out well but a lot of them don’t do any better at their new school than their original. We have more than I ever remember at Miami this year so hopefully at least a couple work out and contribute something.

Looks like OU just reversed course and will allow him to play right away.

Flying Ace · 01-16-2019, 11:08 PM

The block was a conference rule. It's BS.

its a conference rule, but the school can waive it. OU wasnt going to waive it.
