CFPR week 2 ... Syracuse is 13

[USMCSnyper]

Hope we TCB Friday night...ND game could put us in an unbelievable spot. Then BC/Syr matters again!

 

[Rocco]

Games against #3 ND & #17 BC, but MUST NOT LOOK PAST LOUISVILLE.

So incredibly important to take care of LVille, then focus on ND.

Fun times after years and years of utterly terrible football.

 

[gbo]

How is Kentucky still in the top 20? They are garbage.

 

[OrlandoCuse]

CFP committee meets right down the street from me in Grapevine, TX. Maybe I should start placing some subliminal Cuse advertising around their hotel. Might have to bribe the hotel staff to start using some SU napkins with their room service.

 

[Jeremy L.]

Trying not to be Buzz Killington, but seeing people say "Cuse 13th best team in the country? Lol" don't know how Cuse got there.

We're a top 25 team for sure, who benefited from the teams in front of them losing. That's how this all works! Let's keep winning!

It's a weird football year. Teams keep losing so voters have no other choice but to move teams up.

hey i did pretty good i thought miss st would stay ahead of us with the easy win.

one thing you cant overlook. if we win out and nc state wins out we will end up with 2 top 10 wins and no one else will have that even ok/wv would only have 1.

GT could do us a great favor too knocking georgia out of the top 10 and taking away the big win for LSU.

ok/wv/ thats dicy

wsu i think 2 top 10 wins and we pass them.

mich over OSU helps us because they can still lose to ND

 

[Chip]

So basically the committee did the ACC a solid.
By having NC State 14th it ensures that if one of Syracuse and NC State get to 10-2 it will get into a NY6 bowl game.

NC State can only go 9-2. Didn’t get to play the WVU game and it appears WVU will be busy the first weekend of Dec. Wonder if that will cost the Wolfpack. The rest of their schedule is cake.

EDIT: They’re playing ECU in Dec now???

 

[gbo]

While I'm at it, Florida might be the worst team in the top 25. Why does the SEC never fall far after a loss??

 

[upperdeck]

only 10 0-1 loss teams left and we have more upside than kentucky. if wash wins out there is a good chance not one team is left in the pac-12 with less than 4 losses then them.

Statistically, one of the best Ds in the country.

 

[Whitey23]

Please hang 70 on Louisville.

 

[upperdeck]

so if we beat ND and Mich wins out

12-1 mich with wins over 5 loss msu, 6 loss nw, 3 loss psu as their resume builder?
11-1 nd with win or mich
10-2 lsu with win over 10+ ga and 20+ miss st at home
10-2 su with wins over rop 10 nd and top 10 nc st and the only non home big win

best wins by far and they value wins and all the talk of ND much better than week 1..

we could get in over all 3

figure out how to get ok/wv to collapse..

We nearly beat #2 Clemson on the road. We're the 13th best team in the land. I'd argue that others ahead of us are not as good, but I don't want to be too greedy.

I guess. I'm just saying this is a crazy year. After the top 2, you could probably pull the rest of the teams out of a hat.

 

[upperdeck]

at this point it isnt about who is the best its about who has the best resume.

of the teams left standing we would have the best wins and the best loss

ND is pretty good, so is Michigan. Hell, Georgia, too.

OU and WVU play 11/23. Assuming they are the two best teams in the Big12, they will play again in the Big12 Championship game. A split would not likely knock both out. OU has the better chance to win both meetings but WVU will not be an easy out twice.

 

[upperdeck]

its not even a given that they play twice.. tex holds the tiebreaker and gets in ahead of OK if they win out and OK loses to WV..

 

[upperdeck]

Ok st can do it for us too.

 

[upperdeck]

we need to win.

but aub over GA
col over WSU
osu over OK
msu over OSU
tenn over kent

gonna need 3 to get into the top 10 this week. and they have not moved UCF up even with all the losses so we could jump them

beating ND probably gets us 8 without anything else. but 2-3 losses and you can easily get to 6 then it becomes crazy

i can see us getting to 4-5 and getting jumped that last weekend though.

or losing the last 2 and falling to 25

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Kinda crappy that all of the ranked teams are on the same side of the ACC.

 

[blust2i3d4]

Nope CBS

Our two losses are to divisional leaders. W

That guy on CBS is Syracuse hater. Over the years he has proved that.

Yeuh. NC State cancelled the hard one and make it up with ECU, a cupcake.
