Thanks for the shout out GatorAZ. I have to admit that I was very impressed with Murray's poise, and the Sooners looked pretty scary today.
But we'll know more about OU after next weekend's game against UCLA. Paging Russ Smith!
So you used to be "GatorHater"? Where do your college football allegiances lie sir?
Yeah. They really played the best of the best didn't they. C'mon. A lot of these games today were jokes. Oklahoma playing Florida Atlantic would be like a top ranked high school team playing a pop warner team. This is why college football is a joke and always has been. Teams load up on creampuffs to pad their stats and to keep themselves in the top 10. This is why an honest playoff system is badly needed.Thanks for the shout out GatorAZ.

The big schools always schedule a tune up game...the small schools agree even knowing they are gonna get killed because it brings in their biggest payday of the year....its a win win.......then sometimes the little guys actually win..... Either way that tune up game goes against a teams strength of opponent rating when they are being ranked. The only imbalances in cfb are biases favoring the secYeah.

Yea, it’s called “tune-up” games. Getting your 1st string in rhythm & backups some PT. That’s what high school football & college football has been like since the day of time. It would be dumb to schedule top 20 teams every single week.Yeah. They really played the best of the best didn't they. C'mon. A lot of these games today were jokes.

My Louisville Cards got whipped pretty bad by those Pro-bastards from Alabama.I expected a little closer game (51-140 but UL started a kid RS Soph QB who played maybe 100 snaps last year behind Lamar Jackson and he had the obvious jitters and playing against Bama was a experience.Oh well …….got that game out of the way time to look ahead.
I guess Jackson really covered a lot of flaws...

Then those games shouldn't count in the grand scheme of things. And apparently not everyone has them. Michigan and Notre Dame played each other. Auburn and Washington, 2 top 10 teams played each other.Yea, it’s called “tune-up” games. Getting your 1st string in rhythm & backups some PT.

Who are Auburn, Washington, Michigan, & Notre Dame playing next week?Then those games shouldn't count in the grand scheme of things. And apparently not everyone has them. Michigan and Notre Dame played each other. Auburn and Washington, 2 top 10 teams played each other.
NAU played an FBS team!Then those games shouldn't count in the grand scheme of things. And apparently not everyone has them. Michigan and Notre Dame played each other. Auburn and Washington, 2 top 10 teams played each other.
so...If you're going to play these cupcake games then the NCAA needs a legit playoff system. The fact that these top tier teams play these cupcakes and stay at the top and end up in the "playoff" is absurd. And I don't get it. The revenue the NCAA would generate with a true playoff tournament would be tremendous and yet they don't do it.

Also, when those big schools schedule those D2/FCS schools, they pay them a boatload money to help with resources with the school.
Has then be a normal thing, putting a college football post in the Cards forum?
