Week 11 Playoff Projections

[osubuckeye89]

Kentucky is

124th in Points Per Game
123rd in Yards Per Game

Their offense is only a smidge better than Michigan's

Yet we are supposed to believe they would be much less garbage in any other conference. Hilarious.

 

[osubuckeye89]

Wouldn't have to be 10-0. They'd only have to win 7 games to get to 10 wins assuming they play 3 sisters of the poor in the OOC.

They would not, see my post above. Kentucky is dog shit.

If you can't beat Auburn or Florida (and lose to them badly) you are gonna have trouble with the mid-lower level B1G teams as well.

PLEASE, you're a card-carrying member!

I'm a Big 12 card carrying member for sure. I give the SEC homers as much shit as anyone...outside you B1G wonks. Especially the rusty cows and agnuts. I have no use for either of the money grubbing suckers. One's weird and the other is a cult. Ask'em.

Kentucky's not good. Neither are teams 5-18 in the B1G.

I think I will just keep cutting and pasting this until you read it:

Read all my posts. I say exactly that about Texas in every post. Seeing as how I am the SEC voice here, you just aren't paying attention. I am the one saying that if Texas loses to ATM, they should be out of the CFP. Same with IU.

I've only posted about 100 times about Texas' weakass schedule. SMH.

Damn hairy dawg. They ain't going to listen because you are not telling them what they want to hear.

If you get beat badly by Auburn and Florida you aren't assured wins against anyone.

Kentucky likely would lose to the Maryland, Nebraska & Washington type teams. They would get clobbered by the Illinois/Iowas of the world.

 

[Deep Creek]

If KY had Indiana's or Penn State's schedule, yeah, I could see them winning 10.

Then you're a card carrying SEC homer Al. Right @Sgt Brutus?

Nah, not at all true. USC is 16th in the Big Ten standings and just benched their QB, yet they beat one of the "top dogs" in the SEC. Bama losing to Vandy and Ole Miss losing to Kentucky doesn't make the conference harder, it simply makes the "top dogs" not as good as you might have thought.

We'll see. Anyone can get beat. No one is saying Vandy is good, but they are clearly better than the Vandy of old.

Can we say that Oregon's struggle to beat Idaho and BSU makes them "not as good as you might have thought?" Or do you have to lose for that? Seems to me IU's win against UM might say they aren't as good as we thought. Or again, are we just looking at Ls and Ws? Seems like we get criticized a lot for a close win to Ky.

 

[osubuckeye89]

These fools keep pretending like Kentucky has only lost to those so called ELITE! upper level SEC schools.

Explain how you are assuring a team that got wrecked by bad Auburn and Florida teams 10 wins with any P4 schedule?

I even admit Vandy is "better" than normal. In the end they are still Vandy though, they arent totally incompetent level Vandy but they still managed to lose to the 2nd worst team in the Sun Belt, which is really really bad.

“y’all have a weak schedule. You don’t play these certain four good SEC teams.”
— We play all the teams that beat all those teams.
“Oh, yeah, ummmm, we’ll, it’s a WESK SCHEDUKE!”

Are you denying that you have a weak SEC schedule? Seriously?

I get you can only play what's in front of you, but you got a break this year, and that's fine. You just better win your only tough games - UGA and ATM. You've lost one so far. Win the next one, and you will be in the CFP. Lose it, and you are likely out.

If its 1 game i'd agree but I think you can even admit that UGA is not very attractive to the eye test this year.

Ohio State has not been at times either, we damn near blew it against Nebraska.

My main point is nobody is that great this year, anyone pretending otherwise is laughable,

 

[Deep Creek]

There have been some crazy outcomes this year in the SEC. There just aren't any dominant teams. Still, watch them go nuts in the playoffs, whichever teams are in it.

Most years I'd agree with you Hu. And they are still very talented. But damn, all of the leaders have thrown in some real clunkers. Some multiple times. And looked worse than just losing.

Tennessee - shit the bed losing to an Arkie team that lost to a winless Big 12 Okie Lite.
A&M - South Carolina ain't bad but damn aggie looked awful
Texas - Anticipated game of the year and the huge egg they laid ripped their ass wide open
Georgia - Ole Miss and Kentucky games were just pathetic. First half of the Bama game sucked Win against Kentucky sucked.
Ole Miss - Kentucky and LSU, really?
Bama - Vandy?

Everyone one of them can beat any team in the CFP IMO. They're also capable of losing to nearly all of them. I don't see them making as much noise as normal.

 

[Deep Creek]

This year is really wide open there’s not a single team I’d truly call elite. It’s just a mash up of good teams who all have glaring flaws at times .

I really haven't seen "glaring" flaws in Oregon or Ohio State. I'm sure they have some but they've managed around them. They've been tested and taken care of business for the most part. May not have looked "fantastic" but the limited "stink" they've shown smells better than the others.

Can't say the same for Penn State. We'll see about Indiana. I don't consider Michigan "testing" them because of Michigan's lack of offense. While pretty good, ACC, Big 12 and SEC leaders all haven't avoided exposing flaws.

All this make me think the playoffs will be entertaining as hell.

 

[Brutus]

If you have to ask, you're a Honk

 

[Deep Creek]

HAH! Let me clarify: getting into the field of 12 = "playing for the natty"

I doubt they'd get past the semis, but you best believe that however far they get, I'm going to remind them forever that they lost to us that year (just like I remind OSU fans that they've never beaten the Cocks)

But I'd bet they have beaten "their" cocks.

 

[Deep Creek]

People just can't admit that these certain SEC teams are just not really as good as their hype.

LSU is a prime example. Theyll likely finish 9-3 but they are one of the most mediocre 9-3 teams you will ever see. They lost to USC and also had a struggle with UCLA until later in the game.

Damn, there is something we agree on. They damn sure ain't as good as the hype this year. While they've been real good the past several years, they haven't been THAT MUCH better than the rest of CFB regardless of the ridiculous hype. That hype comes the "It just means more"/"S-E-C, S-E-C type crap they spew.

Here's our disagreement. Other "people" just can't admit the middle/bottom of the B1G isn't as good as their hype either. Other "people" think being members of the B1G automatically makes them good.

Nobody is claiming the middle or bottom of the B1G is good, that's the difference. Plenty will claim the Middle-Bottom of the SEC is way better than they are.

 

[osubuckeye89]

Ive yet to see a single person claiming Illinois & Iowa are in fact legit good teams.

 

[Across The Field]

Not my point at all. USC-LSU has nothing whatsoever to do with middle/bottom B1G teams beating the leaders of the conference. That's happend 5 times in the SEC this year.

Yes but how does that mean the SEC is tougher? That's the whole point - USC is good enough to beat one of the top teams in the SEC but not in the B1G, so how does that equate to the SEC somehow being tougher?
