Week 12 Playoff Projections

I can't speak for the new West Coast entries because I haven't looked and it's not really the same, but for the original Big Ten teams the next one that plays a game outdoors in December will be the first.

Every bigten and pac team has played a game outdoors in December.

I see that reflected in some of the computer ratings. Sagarin for example has only 2 Big 12 teams in the top 20, as opposed to 8 SEC. 5 Big Ten and 3 ACC. On the other end, there is one Big 12 team rated 69 or below(that's how many P4 teams there are now) same as the SEC, while the ACC has 5 and the Big 10 has 4.

There are a ton of Big 12 teams in the 20s and 30's, a lot good teams in there. The highs might not be as high as some other conferences, but they also avoid the shit teams...looking at you Purdue and Stanford. #116 and #106 respectively...only slightly better than Mercer @ #129.

That doesn't surprise me at all. I've said all 16 teams will be pretty even year in and year out. (Wonder which one is below the 69.) I don't see team(s) with enough advantages over the others to "run off and leave them."

It's actually Houston.

So the host teams will treat it like any regular home game and allocate their usual amount to visitors. That's interesting. Even more incentive to host a game.

I'd like to think there would be some minimum you have to give to the other team ... 10% or something like that. But we will know very soon.

That would have been my guess but it doesn't make sense to me. So I may not understand how that rating system works. There are four teams below them in the conference standings. Oklahoma State (0-7), Utah (1-6), UCF (2-5), Arizona (2-5). Houston is 3-4 with an OOC of UNLV, @ Oklahoma and Rice.

I thought it might have already been decided and I just missed it. Or can't remember because....old.

That would make sense, but it's computer rankings, so it might be eye test bias, or it might be garbage in garbage out. His model tends to get better the more games played so we will see how it holds up.

The current big ten 14th destroyed the big 12 #1

And? Pretending no one in the B12 could finish in the top 5 of the B1G when an actual B12 team won at the #5 team in the B1G disproves his point. But thanks for stopping by.
 
O/U set at 2 weeks for the amount of time Cucks fans disappear when Oregon shits the bed.

Whatcha got?

5 weeks is waaaay over. But that's a good bet. I tend to agree that Oregon fans will disappear after talking nonstop shit. It'll be same as last year, and every other year.

One Oregon fan will take a post-Thanksgiving break. The rest of us are here the whole time.
