Yes this what I see

Ewers played pretty good so, I wouldn't say he lost the game, but then again he didn't win it either. That goes for the receivers that needed to make a play, and the kicker that didn't do his job either.

Special teams has really fallen of this year...

Ewers win never be the QB that can put the team on his back and will them to victory. Sam had that quality to him, and I think i see it in Manning. He has some moxie to him.

Would a 4 team playoff been better this year? Heard Josh Pate talking about it.

1. Oregon
2. Georgia
3. Texas
4. Penn State.

First out ND.

Not sure how you can make that determination of Manning, given how little he played. It would be interesting to see how he reacts after getting the crap knocked out of him a few times.

I think GA and TX have the best defenses, so I'd give them the best chance to win it all. Pedophile State shouldn't even be allowed to play football.

Manning will have growing pains. Backup QB is always the most popular guy on the team.

Most Manning’s success was against ULM. UTSA and last place Miss State.

Think there is a decent path to the semis for SMU.

I have a friends son who plays for SMU, number 15, edge rusher/DE. I will pull for them.

The best team is probably in there....

The schools are loving the home game though. We got our regular season tickets for the Clemson game and they were 370 a piece...... could you imagine what a 104000 seats brings in.

He is a leader that a team will follow. Ewers doesn’t bring that to the table.

I think portal officially opens tomorrow and declaration for NFL.

Should be interesting

Getting caught flat footed on the fake punt didn't help much either.

Hell of a call. Hat tip

everyone already has Texas beating Clemson. I guess I still don't trust them.

If Texas could get 27 points in every game, they could probably win the Natty.

their defense is VERY good! 10-4 on 27.

One reason Ewers looks shaky is because Manning is his backup and I think Ewers feels the pressure. I think Sark is advising Ewers to turn pro, when in all reality Sark just wants Ewers gone. I bet Ewers transfers in the next portal and Manning becomes UT's QB by default, as I have said would happen all along. Ewers may be making more money now than he would as a pro. Manning will start next year no matter where Ewers is and I am not so sure that he shouldn't be starting now instead of later. Upside on Manning is way more than it is on Ewers. I am still surprised that Sark did not get Manning in the game against Georgia in some fashion. Once he gets him in there again, I don't think Sark will be able to remove him from the starting lineup because of Manning's success. Texas could have beaten Georgia, but Sark got greedy and tried to score in single plays rather than a series. Georgia won because of the series of plays that were called. Sark got greedy Saturday night and it cost him. If he had called the same plays with Manning UT would have won because Manning would have probably scrambled for a TD versus Ewers who tried to throw for the TD and had to settle for the field goal.

I'll tip mine too, but it would have been a horrible call if the horns were ready for it. Would have given them the ball in GA territory with the score tied.

Anyone heard anything on Carson Becks injury?

Also what's the word on Georgia's punter?

Runors swirling that he’s out 6 weeks, Beck.

Punter out for season. He was best punter in college.

I think I’m ok with doing away with championship games. Not worth it, the interest doesn’t seem worth it. Crowds were small

Playoffs need to change too.
Boise and Arizona State get byes? Last year they woulda been left out.

I don’t think it can be judged by actual game attendance what with the prices of not only the tickets, but just the price and hassle of getting there. There will be many millions watching on tv.

With the conference realignment, there is no regional excitement….and now there is too much liability for making the CFP.

I’m with you….12 teams….16 teams….just pick the best ones.
