Really need 6 team playoff.

Not just talking about you, but I find this hilarious. I knew this would happen. There will always be people wanting more and there will always be debate about the last pick and how they should expand. Just leave it the way it is. No whining about it if you don't finish perfect.

He's exactly who I'd hire if I'm UVA. And UVA is exactly where I'd go as Richt. Non-foosball conference in a very fertile recruiting state.

Wouldn't touch the Miami stuff with a 20 foot pole right now.

Virginia is IMO anyway a decent football school. I know VT is the top dog in that state but UVA has had some good teams in the last 25 years and is a program that I think has potential to become an ACC contender. There's no reason for them not to strive to be a good team.

Apparently Dan Mullen wants to go to UGA

The rumblings have been that he has shown interest in Maryland and Miami. Strangley enough he was on the hot seat at the beginning of last season. I think he might have done all he can there in Starkville. Ole Miss seems to have control of the Magnolia state for the next couple of seasons.

After which they end up on NCAA probation for recruiting violations with the SMU guys facepalming and going "guys, seriously, we told you you can't be THAT obvious about it".

Yeah but how many quality wins? Because I count all of 1 for the bucknuts.

I mean to be fair that's more then my boys have right now but you don't make the playoff without a conference championship when you've only beat one good team

Right, but anything is possible if the teams in front of you are dropping. OSU is clearly at worst like the #5/6 team. That's not even my point though. I'm not crying for OSU to get in or anything.

And they'll probably have a better loss than Alabama just like they do this year.

Would actually be very interested to see what would happen if Ole Miss played tOSU this year. Would be a helluva game, any chance they meet in the Outback Bowl? I forget if there are any other exclusively SEC//B1G games.

I think it'll be OSU in the Rose Bowl if Iowa beats MSU, or OSU in the Fiesta bowl vs Notre Dame if Iowa gets beat.

I'm thinking of starting up a support group for SEC fans whose coaches have been fired.

Rumor I'm hearing out of UGA is that they want Kirby Smart owing to his status as a Dawg alumni.

Apparently South Carolina are interested in Muschamp..... It seems like both USC's are in a competition as to who can make the worse hire.

Yeah, and I'd be shocked if Smart doesn't end up at Georgia. He's been waiting for that job to open.

Just came to post this. Saturday Down South had a big long article on it.

of every possible measurable they could use to decide tie breaks in this case of needing 5-7 teams to go to Bowls, how the **** did they decide on APR?! :laugh:

Mizzou released a statement saying they will decline any Bowl bid they get, hopefully ECU is on the short list.

God, I hope not. I was hopeful when I saw the original scuttlebutt that Herman was the favorite for the position. If it's Muschamp you're dooming the program to lose any and all legitimacy that's been built up over the Holtz/Spurrier eras, taking us right back to the bad old days of Brad Scott and perennial also-ran status.
