wonderbread Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 With the B1G's poor performance today the SEC has locked up 2 playoff spots IMO.It's the second week, nothing is guaranteed right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 The BigTen is absolutely irrelevant. There may not be any ranked teams by year's end. MSU's loss may not have been as close as the score indicates, so they are probably top 25 but that may be it. Iowa dodged a bullet. Nebraska dodged a bullet. Wisconsin looked awful. Minnesota, possibly the best team in the west, may have lost its QB for the year (and let Midd Tenn State back in). No wins of significance yet. OSU really seems to miss Braxton Miller (though tons of credit to VT's defense). The conference is eliminated from National Title contention.

CubsFanBudMan Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Yes, but if Michigan State wins out, a lone loss at Oregon won't look as bad. Better to lose early.And hey, despite appearances, some B1G team could still go undefeated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakwood Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 So if the Big 12 dumps Texas and adds North Dakota State, does the conference improve? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 The B1G is ALWAYS overrated. So's half the SEC. How long are we going to pretend South Carolina is good again?

PSUcelticsWON95 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Yeah, why was Washington ranked? They've beaten Hawaii and Eastern Washington by a combined 8 points, and gave up 52 today. I'll be surprised if they make a bowl game knowing how deep the PAC-12 is this year.EDIT: Oh my Stanford.Eastern Washington's loss made me sad.I was so excited that Nebraska just scored the game winning touchdown against McNeese State. But then I realized they had to score a game winning touchdown to beat McNeese state. It's one of the weirdest feelings ever when you're jumping up and down in excitement while you're disappointed.Nebraska's LUCKY game-winning run made me sad.

jhn31 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I'm compiling lists of school leaderboards at the most notable stats. So far it's mostly SEC schoolsArkansasAuburnFloridaLSUMississippi StateOle MissSouth CarolinaTennesseeTexas A&MVanderbilt But I've added a couple Big 12 schools too.BaylorTexas TechKansas StateWest Virginia And Michigan State I would like to eventually have all 129 FBS schools have pages like this up there, but that's going to take a very long time to compile. I have built an Excel spreadsheet to convert tables of the stats leaders into Wikipedia code to make the tables, so there's some time saved there (although it still takes some time to make sure all the links point to the correct person). If anyone would like to pitch in in the actual compiling of the leaders from the schools' media guides, I have been working from a public Google Doc: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wbn_QB1CmJpOCxUloBOObMmQaXiOS4WpXpjS8HMJqsA/edit?usp=sharing If anyone wants to pitch in, it would be greatly appreciated, and the whole world would get to have one of these references for your favorite team. Compiling a single school can be done in about 15-20 minutes, so if lots of people pitch in, the major conferences could be done and up on Wikipedia in a few days. Either way, I hope you enjoy having these resources. I'm primarily a Mississippi State fan, and I've already been referring back to the MSU page several times since the season started to check progress of current players.

OnWis97 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I guess the overwhelming belief that the important thing is for PSU to remain a top-notch program prevailed. Aside from the downfall of The Enabler, everything's the same at Penn State.

kewp80 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 So why did they punish them in the first place!?!?!? Jeez, the suspension nonsense in the NCAA and NFL has my brain hurting right now...

PSUcelticsWON95 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 They never should have had those sanctions in the first place. But, it's great to see them dropped. Penn State has still done an outstanding job recruiting even under the sanctions, and I think now it'll be even better. WE ARE... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
