NCAA Foootball 2017

[dps]

538  Has their current 4 as
Alabama
Georgia
Ohio St
and Clemson
with Wisconsin, Washington and Oklahoma the first three out.

That's reasonable, but I'd go with Alabama, Georgia, Norte Dame, and Miami as the top 4.  I don't really think that Miami belongs, but as long as they're undefeated, I think you have to put them above Clemson.  I suppose that you could say the same about Wisconsin, but if they played in the Big Ten East instead of West, they'd probably be no better than the 3rd best team in the division, if that.

Notre Dame is almost certainly in if they win out, I think.  Unless Georgia unexpectedly collapses, ND would have the best loss of any 1-loss team, and a bunch of good wins.  Of course, they still have some work to do to get those wins.

At this point, the Big 12 and PAC-12 need help to get any team into the playoff, but they may get it.

Iowa fans very fucked up tonight.

Best game of the day is New Mexico State at Wyoming.    That Wyoming QB won't get drafted in the first round, but he'll be in the pros somewhere based on pure balls.   

No way, WSU at Arizona by far.

Kalil Tate. WSU loaded up the box, so he just threw bombs against them until they didn't, then Arizona hit them with running plays of 82, 79, and 49 yards.

Washington State was giving up 270ish YPG going into Arizona, and the Cats put nearly 600 on them.

Kalil Tate Passing:
10/17   275   16.2   2   1   91.8

Kalil Tate Rushing:
13   146   11.2   1   

Over the last four games:
Passing:
CMP   ATT   PCT   YDS   AVG   TD   LNG   INT   RAT
46   67   68.7   784   11.7   6   68   3   187.5

Rushing:
ATT   YDS   AVG   LNG   TD
69   926   13.4   82   8

This guy is freaking insane, and he is only getting better.

He has another excellent (and young) back with him, a solid receiving corps and decent offensive line (their pass blocking needs work).

Arizona's defense is stupid young, but has some really good freshman. They give up a lot of yards to a sophisticated offense like Leachs, but they have athleticism and force plays.

This team is ridiculously young - something like 60 RS freshman/freshman on the roster.

Next week they have to go to USC, that game will be for the P12 South Conference lead. I don't think they are going to go in and knock USC off at home, but it is sure nice that if they did, it would not be a huge surprise.

They should go from unranked to in the low teens I would think.

Nice article on Tate written before the WSU game.

I was there, it was homecoming and I blew my Southwest points to fly to Denver, get picked up by my Nephew (who as a real job there as a civil engineer - hod bless STEM), and drive up to Laramie.  I lost my voice, I had to leave this morning at 430 to make my cheapest flight back...but GODDAMMIT, for one night Wyoming looked okay.

for one night Wyoming looked okay.

They're probably going to go bowling again this year (hope posting this doesn't jinx it for you PDH).

It's also looking like the only FBS teams from Florida that won't be going bowling are Florida and Florida State.  Who'd have guessed that?

Lawdy, it's a massacree.

[grumbler]

Ohio State and Penn State both go down.  Chaos in the B10 East.

[PDH]

Well Iowa beat Wyoming - so they clearly are the best team.

See, for one week you get to know what it's like to be a Wyoming fan.

That's precisely why Mrs. Meyer made Mr. Meyer move there.
