andycumbee19 Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Why do I have a feeling it's going to be another year of Alabama and Ohio State in the playoff? Ugh.The boys in blue from Ann Arbor may have something to say about that come late November. Lets just wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their QB play isn't ideal, but Harris has had 250+ in two straight games, and he's not turning the football over either. Should be a great game in two weeks.

JayMac Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I know Golden should've been fired but does Miami think that they are a top flight program still? The artist formerly known as The U is just a plain U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 It doesn't matter who's coaching them, Miami will struggle as long as they're playing in the Dolphins Stadium. Maybe they need to go back to being college football's bad boys again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Pardon my ignorance, but why don't they have their own stadium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alxy8s Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Pardon my ignorance, but why don't they have their own stadium?Private school with a small alumni base makes it cost effective to share with the Dolphins and there's no room on campus.There's been talk of them sharing a smaller stadium with the new MLS team. I'd be all for that. At least the crowd shots would be less embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I know Golden should've been fired but does Miami think that they are a top flight program still? The artist formerly known as The U is just a plain U. The program? Nope. "Fans" who still worship the 80s thug attitude and at most attended MDC if they even graduated high school? Yeah. There are fans out there today convinced they're either gonna land Gruden of Chip Kelly because Miami has the money. Despite the fact that Miami hired Golden and that was likely their high end of being able to pay.

infrared41 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I sure do love how the PAC 12 is so evenly matched top to bottom, but it's going to absolutely KILL their chances at getting a playoff team. I'm pretty much convinced that if you put a handful of those teams in either the ACC or the B1G, they'd run the table. What a bummer that whoever is going to come out of that gauntelt on top is probably going to be regulated to the lesser bowls. I'm happy we have a playoff system in place, but the PAC 12 this season is a pretty solid example of why it needs to be expanded IMO. The playoff doesn't need to be expanded. The playoff committee just needs to focus more on the strength of schedule/quality opponent stuff. The Pac 12 champ will be far more deserving of a playoff bid than either the ACC or Big XII champs. Hopefully, the committee will figure that out. Also, Ohio State curb stomps last year's SEC and Pac 12 champs and we're still knocking the B1G? Are we going to pretend the rest of the B1G sans MSU was good last year?Ohio State curb stomped Alabama and Oregon, Michigan State beat Baylor, Wisconsin beat Auburn, and the B1G had the most Bowl wins over ranked opponents last season. Let's stop pretending it's still 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conference was bad last season, the fact that they happened to win in meaningless games doesn't negate that.Also can we take some time to appreciate that fact that we live in a world where Colleg Gameday is going to Temple?

BBTV Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 College Game Day is going to be in Philadelphia, where nobody cares about local college football (or much college football at all.)The Linc is sold out, but it'll be all ND fans. The broadcast will be from Independence Hall, which might be cool to see.

That's just the contract they signed when creating their football program. And I'd say it was more the national championships than just the bowl victories that made their reputation the way it is. You can win all the bowls you want, if you have no titles it means nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
