College football playoffs

I'm an OSU fan as well. Looks like the OSU offensive minds finally realized
that Oregon's defensive backs were giving up 4 inches of height and tons of
weight to each OSU receiver. But for OSU's insane decision to play soft at
end of first half/beginning of second, the game was a massacre.

Lots of credit to Arizona State vs Texas, THAT was fun to watch. Still
scratching my head over the failure to call Targeting on the Texas DB who
actually did Target someone! (This same DB committed PI twice on the same
play earlier in the game). That game was neutral fan Heaven

Not sure how UGA/ND plays out, should be interesting.

It seems as if the teams given a bye week struggled to get out of the gate-- two were down 14-0 after 1st qtr and ASU was down 14-3. I wonder if there is actually a disadvantage to having the bye--too long a wait can get teams out of rhythm sometimes. Let's see how Georgia starts today.

Personally I would prefer a 16 team tournament with no Byes, essentially structured like one region of March Madness. Give the conference champs an automatic home game in the first round as an incentive, but use rankings to establish "normal" seedings.

I loathe the way overtime works now.

Damn this ND-Georgia game is a slug fest.

TUM- It is indeed! Tight game, like it should be.

Top 4 seeds all lost in the quarterfinals. None were actually favored in their games so maybe not too surprising.
