DaRadniz29 Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 With Conference Championship Weekend only a day away, here's a scenario that's a bit chaotic:Wins Championship Game1. Alabama beats Missouri in the SEC Title Game2. Oregon beats Arizona in the Pac 12 Championship3. TCU beats Iowa StateLoses Championship Game and/or last game of "regular" season4. Florida State loses big to Georgia Tech ACC Championship5. Ohio State loses to Wisconsin in the Big Ten Title Game6. Baylor loses to Kansas State7. Arizona loses to Oregon in Pac12 Championship8. Michigan St. (Idle)9. Kansas State (Beats #6 Baylor)10. Mississippi State (Idle)Not saying any of this will happen, but other than maybe GT blowing out FSU, the rest is still very possible. In the even this does happen (I'm going to get a lotto ticket!) would the committee keep Florida State in since they only have one loss, a CG blowout loss or do you bump up a #8 Sparty or #9 K-State or even Wisconsin into the number #4?Edit: Also McElwain to Florida is a done deal. Buyout seems to be worked out and now they expect the University of Florida to introduce McElwain sometime Saturday. ESPN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I think Nebraska made a great choice in Mike Riley because he's a proven winner. And let's not forget before he got here, Oregon State had only 4 winning seasons in 30 years and he turned them into a solid program. For Michigan, I believe they will hire Kyle Whittingham from Utah. Riley's 61 and his last few Oregon State teams have shown a definite regression. He's probably the lowest ceiling of all the guys Nebraska could have hired, which is ridiculous when you just fired a guy who won 9-10 games for 7 straight seasons.

Football is a little bit different because rarely do you play a team twice, especially in college football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 It's pretty hard to beat the same team twice. In football you tend to learn a lot more from losing than you do from winning so the team that won the first game tries to repeat exactly what they did the first time, but the team they're playing isn't playing the same way that led to them being successful in the first game. (See: Patriots-Giants 2007)Just don't tell that to the 1999 Jacksonville Jaguars who won 15 games and lost 3 and all 3 were to the Tennessee Titans.
