Still plenty of time left USC, but USC is like 5th on the list of PAC 12 teams I would enjoy watching in the playoffs.

Somehow said the other day that Ohio St has been the most controversial inclusion or exclusion every year of the playoff. Here we go again.

I would never hang this as an actual comp on a QB prospect, but the way the ball comes out of Williams' arm at these angles is the closest optically to Aaron Rodgers I've ever seen.

It sucks that Caleb got hurt, not least because Utah can f*** off.

Is your desire to wound me? :rant:

Georgia will obliterate the Buckeyes, if they get the #4 seed, anyway, but, still.... :rant:

I'm just happy we (probably) have one new team. USC doesn't count when they're just re-skinned Oklahoma.

I'm a big fan of Whittingham, so I do want to give him credit. But could you even imagine this USC defense trying to tackle Bama/Georgia? No fun to be had at all.

They deserved to be #4 coming into the game because of their resume but USC in reality wasn’t even a top 10 team in quality according to most analytical models.

I get people are down on Ohio State after last weekend but that’s still not a team you necessarily want to back door into playoffs if you’re the top seed. USC & Tennessee without Hooker I don’t think they have the necessary talent to potentially pull off an upset like an Ohio State or Alabama would as a #4 seed.

Riley pulled a pretty good feat getting this far with this club. Helton left a bare cupboard when he was fired. SC was 4-8 last year with that being a weak 4-8. Not many quality linemen to speak of. This did them in last night. Without Williams they might have been a .500 team.

Yeah, I was thinking they were a year ahead of schedule. It will be interesting to see what Riley plans to do about that defense. They couldn't tackle shit.

TCU is going down today aren't they?

No. You know why? Because Kansas State is a f***ing trash bag.
