I just read that there are 20 states that have NIL rights for high school players, which astounds me mainly because I'm surprised anyone was seeking out high school kids for endorsements.

I'm very happy to see Oregon in the CFP conversation going into week 10 of Lanning's first season, but I'd be lying if I said I was super confident about winning out.

I feel like LSU at -2 is free money, so much so I actually investigated what it would take to place a bet and it’s such a pain in the rear end I guess I’ll just pass on this hot tip.

The real nightmare scenario is LSU inexplicably beating Georgia in the SECGC which leaves 11-1 UGA and 11-2 SEC Champ LSU who lost by a billion to 11-1 Tennessee at home Couple with a TCU lost somewhere and god forbid Ole Miss ends up 11-1, a 12 team playoff would be instituted the day after

Joey Freshwater posted:https://kyinsider.com/mark-stoops-calls-on-community-to-help-with-nil/ Yeah I'm worried about this. There is a big disconnect in the athletic department, especially at the AD level. Mitch Barnhart has done great things for UK, especially the non-revenue sports, but he is very against anything NIL. Stoops and Calipari lobbied the state legislators to get NIL legal in Kentucky, and Barnhart was pretty upset they went around him to do it. Basketball will be fine at Kentucky because it's already a national brand and national deals will be available, but football NIL has to rely on local business. UK has a collective, but the AD does nothing to promote it, nothing to lobby for it, and it is going to hurt football recruiting more than anything. If he goes I think it's to the Big 10, especially if Iowa opens. I know money talks but why the hell would anyone want to take the Auburn job otherwise. e: Here's an article that really explains the situation at Kentucky. https://www.on3.com/teams/kentucky-wildcats/news/kentucky-football-recruiting-nil-administration-collectives-matt-jones/ quote:After a conversation with a source last night, Matt outlined three major issues that are prohibiting Kentucky from reaching its NIL potential: So not only is it hurting recruiting, Kentucky could lose their 6 best freshmen and 6 of their best players overall. Not sure how many schools are dealing with similar situations, but most of the big schools seem to be embracing everything Kentucky is not.

PostNouveau posted:These are all very good arguments, but have you considered that Clemson has been good recently and that seems to matter a whole lot to poll voters/the committee? I think this is a solid point but it feels like the hype around Clemson is so much less than usual season even before the loss.

The committee putting Clemson behind a 2 loss Bama I think is a nail in the coffin in the chances of an ACC team making it. Sure Clemson will jump some if they win the championship, but I would be shocked if they jumped above a 1 loss Tennessee or the loser of the OSU/MI game. I might be completely wrong because as a Tennessee fan the last time I had to worry about this was before there was CFP (I think 2001 was the last we came close to a BCSNC but lost to LSU in SECCG).

 god blessdownout posted:Is this why texas is a 7 point favorite over TCU? Cuz I'm really I think the thought process is as follows: 1) Texas is at home. Home teams are favored CP 2) Texas has been pretty good in a certain kind of way even if the results have been bad! They score a lot of points and perform well on balance, they just loving melt down in the second half. Open question whether this is inherent or somewhat noisy. 3) The losses have been close one-score losses. There's a lot of noise in those. 4) All the forward-looking projections take in to account things like recruiting class strength etc, so even though Texas has underperformed relative to recruiting talent, they get credit here for absolute talent level (you can argue this is dumb) I do think it'll be extremely funny to see if TCU come-from-behind bullshit is synergistic with Texas choke-in-the-second-half bullshit or if either/both these narratives get destroyed.

I feel like the only way you favor Texas in this game is that you have not watched a lot of Texas games this season. We do seem to poo poo the bed far less at home, but I dunno if that's compelling enough to say we should be favored.

Sagarin, ESPN FPI+, etc are all really high on us. I assume whatever methods Vegas uses to set the lines has a heavy dose of algorithms and fancy stats to it as opposed to just eye test and W-L resume stuff. I don’t see it happening, but I thought Texas being favored to beat KSU on the road was crazy too and apparently the computers were on to something there.

For fun I checked a website that shows Money vs. % of bets for Texas -7 and LSU -3 TX/TCU - 59% of bets on TCU +7 but 70% of the money on Texas - 7 LSU/ARK - 70% of bets on LSU -3 but 73% of the money on Arkansas +3 There are a lot of flaws with this approach but I wouldn't bet either game based on that.

Oregon and USC at 6 and 8 make me think there's a good chance that any 1-loss Pac-12 champ (including UCLA) is going to make the CFP. That said, I'm sure they'll find a way to beat each other up and ensure that the conference doesn't produce a 1-loss champ.

This is way worse than the glass case, the glass case is a goal to be reached, something to be filled. This is an assumed accomplishment for something that he hasn't even gotten close to while the coach there. LMAO Stoops I really wanted VT to try and chase but it seemed like he got his big extension and wasn't going anywhere last year. If he's really jumping ship in the near future, seems like yet more bad timing, should have fired Fuente and gone for Stoops after he kicked the poo poo out of us in that bowl game with a WR for a QB.

All of this Oregon talk neglects the fact that Oregon is about to play 3 good teams in a row to finish the regular season and then maybe a conference championship game. Like Oregon was not too far from this position last year and then got blown out by Utah consecutively.

For sure, no guarantees. However, Cristobal was an atrocious X’s and O’s coach, that team had really bad injury problems, and the team had already looked pretty fraudulent. This team definitely looks better and while all those games are for sure losable, I don’t think the Utes got better since last year. (OSU and UW definitely did get better) Still a good position to be in but it don’t mean anything yet.

Yeah if Oregon goes 12-1, that means they're finishing with wins over UCLA, Washington (whatever that does for you), Utah, and USC (or possibly Utah again). If you have all that and the conference belt, and your only loss is week 1 versus Georgia, I think you have a pretty unassailable case over a 1-loss Clemson and whatever 1-loss SEC or Big Ten runners up that are floating around.

(OSU and UW definitely did get better) From what I gathered in Twitter Spaces that included players and insiders shortly after the season ended, Cristobal was already in talks with Miami before the first Utah game and players knew it. Guys were trying to figure out whether they'd be transferring or not and the team as a whole was basically checked out. Combined with Cristobal being completely outclassed by Whittingham in the coaching department, it makes some sense as to why they were blown out by a good team, twice. Utah is still the team I'm most concerned about going forward but I think it'll be a close game one way or another.

I just hope we keep the game kind of close this weekend. Basically my entire adult life Oregon-Washingon has not been a traditional rivalry game, in the sense that the better team going into the game has won pretty much every year and you cannot therefore throw out the records, so I expect that to hold true again this year.

I think you're right, assuming Oregon wins out. The only way I guess it falls apart is if the rest of the conference games break such that it devalues all of those wins (Utah, Wash and OSU lose the rest of their games and USC and UCLA suck in a race to see who can avoid going to the PAC-12 championship), and ND wins out making the Clemson loss look less bad and boosting a one-loss tOSU's resume. But I doubt all that poo poo happens. dphi posted:Utah is still the team I'm most concerned about going forward but I think it'll be a close game one way or another. Being at home helps for sure.

I think a 1 loss Oregon will jump a 1 loss Tennessee after the Pac-10 Championship. They both lost to the same opponent, but playing championship weekend will give the Ducks a boost over the Vols. It all comes back to TCU. If TCU drops a game but wins the Big-12 does it jump Tennessee? I am not sure. Like I said before not really worried about Clemson. The only other team that could keep Tennessee out of it is the OSU/MI loser if it is a close game.
