ACC has a great chance this week. GT, Clem, Lou, FS all have opportunities to get signature wins and help the ACCs strength.

Lane Kiffin talks too much for his work output throughout his career. Had he beaten a mediocre Florida team, his team would be in the CFP top 10 right now. His teams have consistently been weak. Should stop whining and take ownership.

Ole Miss lost to UF who got slaughtered by Miami. Cal beat Auburn who beat the Aggies. Aggies also lost to ND. For one week IΓÇÖm rooting for FSU to beat Gators. That way our worst team will have a win over SEC. Same with Clemson/USC
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

Standard SEC: our league is SO much tougher than yours that we deserve it all, and if you play nice per our definition, you might get tossed a cleanly picked bone.

Ole Miss looks terrible. SMU would beat them by 30.

I find it hilarious that the SEC is complaining about SOS. They are getting exactly what they wanted: a whole lot of big money programs all in one conference, so they can all make a ton of money. You can do that, but there is a cost: you 're not allowed to lose more than 2 games.

Close game til MSU failed to convert with a first and goal on the 2. Yes, little miss looked
awful against a 2-9 bottom feeder. Hope the committee took note.

It's looking like the Big 10 and SEC will each have 4 teams in, the ACC, Big XII and MWC champs will be in and the only question remaining is whether the ACC will get a 2nd invite or the SEC will end up with 5 teams in. If we win Saturday, Miami gets in based on the current rankings. If we lose, the question becomes whether SMU, Miami or Ole Miss gets the final at-large invitation.

Just play well Saturday and show everyone you are deserving, Mustangs!

The whole system is a scam in order for the B10 & SEC to keep their control over it all.
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

HOWEVER, whatever we think of the 'portal' system, it's going to change the lay of the land. Now, the power conferences & their 'power' teams will have more & more losses to mediocre teams much like we've seen this year. There is now a new sheriff in town!!! Yeah!!! They'll be only able to hold onto this $#$% for so long as they experience more & more losses.
