Just any ESPN opinion piece is enough for me.

[answer iv dmx]

Danny Hope is out at Purdue

Good for the B1G. Needed an upgrade there, hopefully can land an up-and-coming coach. Need them to rebound back to the previous level of play which is probably the level at which Northwestern is competing.

 

[Lunden]

oops

Yeah, ESPN is pretty much paid to create hype where they're told to

Tim Beckman should be fired next.

i.e: talking about tim tebow every single opportunity they get a chance. i still can't believe people just blindly listen to everything espn tells them

 

[gunna get it]

I know it wont happen but Tavon Austin should get an invite to New York

 

[answer iv dmx]

Bring back Zook

Have to think that Jerry Kill is done because of his health. Even if he wants to continue, I think Minny should step in. It's just not safe and the players can't feel great about the situation either.

 

[trethousandgt]

How bout we just hold all this convo til January
im pretty sure some of yall would say "well at least we made it to the championship...im proud we made it that far"

Listen, if Notre Dame were to lose, and get beat up by Georgia or Alabama that would be the end of it what really could be said? But gut feeling is that whether Notre Dame beats Alabama or Georgia theres still gonna be the same dudes making up some lame argument of why Notre Dame shouldn't be the national champion

 

[ooiron manoo]

Nah team is buns. Same reason Lee won't go to NY.

Spaziani out at BC. Pink slip Sunday in full effect.

 

[trethousandgt]

I don't have to. That wasn't your point. Nice try though.

Ummmm my point was that no other team in the top ten has played and defeated 9 BCS bowl teams and I'm pretty sure its been proven.

If they win then they are claerly the best team IMO

thats just me tho


we wouldnt have none of these convos if we had playoffs

 

[nako xl]

So Gunna, and everyone else, who are your Heisman Finalists in order?  Let's say... Top 5?  Not who you think is gonna get the invite, but who YOU would invite.

1.  Manziel

2.  Lee (Won't happen)

3.  Austin (Won't happen)

4.  Colin Klein

5.  Barner

 

[statis22]

Marquise Lee
Johnny Manziel
Tavon Austin
Jarvis Jones
Gio Bernard

 

[ooiron manoo]

1. Manziel
2. Klein
3. Taylor
4. McCaron
5. Barner (Couldn't think of a fifth so threw in a system player, my bad)

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

1. Manziel
2. Klein
3. Taylor
4. McCaron
5. Barner (Couldn't think of a fifth so threw in a system player, my bad)

Not bad. Given the politics/storyline BS that goes along with awards like these, I'll say

1. Manziel
2. Klein
3. Te'o
4. McCaron
5. Taylor

 

[trethousandgt]

Agreed, long overdue for a playoff system

 

[gunna get it]

I'd only send 3.

Manziel
Klein
Austin

 

[39478]

1. Manziel
2. Klein
3. Taylor
4. McCaron
5. Barner (Couldn't think of a fifth so threw in a system player, my bad)

The wifey is glad that we have a weekend where we don't have to care about CFB going shopping

I don't see why the Heisman can't go to Manziel. Nobody had won it as a sophomore until Tebow did it in 2007 and Bradford did it in 2008. A freshman will win it at some point, might as well be now.

Regarding playoffs, I'm curious to see how teams are slotted. People use different criteria to rank their teams. Some use their schedule and quality wins/losses, others rank based on how team plays, etc. Some might say Oregon looks better than Florida, but then there is the counter argument that Florida has probably the most impressive set of wins in the country (LSU, A&M, USCe, FSU). Could get wild with politicking...something the sport is plenty rife with.

 

[elderwatsondiggs]

SEC...three teams in the Top 5, six teams in the Top 10. The last six BCS championships, Three of the last 5 Heismans possibly soon to be four out of the last 6.

I can see how many can be annoyed with their dominance whether perceived or not, but dang look at the results.
