Really fortunate the ref had the courage to throw that flag

At this point, BYU has FEI rankings of Offense #35, Defense #19, ST #10. Rankings last year were

Good thing SEC poached Texas from the B12 or they’d have nobody in the Semifinal.

yapacoug Hands down GOAT!

Huge Georgia run. They have plenty of time still.

But Matt, the WR was moving towards the LOS at the snap. This isn't Canada.

So is the CFP more easily accessed by bring in the MWC or the new and improved PAC if you can just run it every year and

BYU in the new PAC would be in the playoffs 4 times a decade at a minimum.

I don’t really care who wins the game

As long as it’s not Notre Dame, I agree

I think the SEC losing is always good.

ND's RB is legit. He's keeping them in the game despite mediocre blocking.

Is there a carve out in the rules that allows the runner to face mask the

Only carve out is for hands to the face.

chilawcoug

4:50pm

Do you mean that’s allowed for the runner? If so that makes sense on the one

4:51pm

Correct. I don't think it is technically a carve out, but just only applies to

chilawcoug

Same seems like for some reason they don’t call it on the O player.

Blue for Life

4:51pm

It seems to me that the dangers of a facemask are overstated. I just don't see guys getting hurt from other guys

HarlemCoug

5:01pm

ND has 85 yards of passing and is driving to essentially end the game. Crazy.

So much SEC jealousy on here

Goliath

it’s just cause SEC fans and the media act like the SEC is God’s greatest gift

Guilty. I hate the SEC.

He really Parker Jones'd it, didn't he?

jvr7

4:44pm

The OL has had so many freaking false starts, just really bad by Georgia.

Blue for Life

4:42pm

ND is pulling the snap count simulation and/or full DL jump

Kajdin

4:43pm

They have to be doing something as it has been bad for Georgia.

Blue for Life

4:49pm

They got called for it right after that false start on 4th and 2

Kajdin

4:50pm

The OC for Georgia is just bad. That 3rd down call was horrible.

Blue for Life

4:41pm

Yeah, well they're 11-2 and in the playoffs so he can't be anything but great.

foofcoug

4:44pm

Yea but things change from game to game. They haven’t shown they can run the

Blue for Life

ND should have played it safe and punted. They were in control of the game.

4:41pm

Can I post some Jake Retzlaff stats after a bowl win?

YOHONOMOTO

4:40pm

I have him much lower in the big 12 in completion percentage....12th to be precise.

kimdaddy35

4:43pm

He is a great leader and a very average (mid) QB.

indocoug

4:45pm

So he’s like a solid top 50 or so QB. Not bad.

Polecat

I love it when people cherry pick stats to suit their supposed "non-narrative".

ManicBlue

"Cherry pick" funny.

Very kind spot. But not kind enough.

chilawcoug

it was a good stretch by Leonard. refs viewpoints are often blocked. but yeah

cwilke1

4:40pm

Strange thing to complain about.

kimdaddy35

4:41pm

Not complaining

Goliath

4:42pm

He's been complaining almost since the game started

SJS

4:43pm

Nah, not true

chilawcoug

4:44pm

Yep, the official on the bottom was much less closer.

Blue for Life

4:43pm

But he didn't have the spot. So where he came in is not really relevant

chilawcoug

4:43pm

well it looks like he had the better view, even though ref on the other side got

cwilke1

4:45pm

No it was on the other side of the field. Refs don't just "give up" their spot

chilawcoug

4:47pm

When the ND players looked at him he just pointed to the other ref because he

chilawcoug

4:49pm

ok but the spot was terrible, and the ref on lower side of the camera got it

cwilke1

4:55pm

I thought the replay showed that the ref actually had the perfect spot.

chilawcoug

4:56pm

the replay showed Leonard continuing to stretch after leg was already down, and

cwilke1

4:58pm

That was dumb ND. Punt and make Georgia drive.

Kajdin

4:38pm

too predictable on the play

cwilke1

4:39pm

Pin them back and make them eat clock. ND believes in its defense too much.

88Coug

4:41pm

okay, ended up being the right call after all. There's a reason I'm not a coach

johnnybyu

Agreed. 12 is good. If it was 16 I would just think there's more Big Ten and sec

Agnostic-alumni

4:35pm

I don't think the Big 10 nor SEC goes for that. They think they should get 12 out of the 16.

kimdaddy35

4:33pm

At least 2 of the remains 4 must go to non P4 teams.

Bluforever

I like the idea of 16 and eliminate the CCGs.

Chefcurry

4:57pm

If it were still 4 team BCS, semis would’ve been Oregon, Georgia, ND, and either

Rexy Coug

4:27pm

That is not correct. The Top 4 of the rankings were Oregon, Georgia, Texas, Penn State. That’s your 4.

TCuz

4:29pm

Since there’s no established criteria for who is selected and where they rank

Future_Tacos

4:31pm

They fabricate rankings for what they want. I doubt all 4 from SEC/B10 would go.

Rexy Coug

4:33pm

Notre Dame was not in the top 4.

kimdaddy35

4:31pm

I stand by my prediction

Rexy Coug

4:33pm

There is no prediction. We literally know what the BCS formula was. They would not have been in.

kimdaddy35

4:35pm

I think ND would’ve ended in top 4. That’s all I’m saying. In 10 years of 4 team

Rexy Coug

Wait, you are saying committee now, but the OP and what kimdaddy was responding

I'm not sure that is a takeaway from this game. Georgia has moved the ball

Georgia lost their QB. Expect them to be down.

Salami Karate

Yeah but besides the auto bid, they wouldn’t be there

RealTaysomHill

The wouldn't have been in the SEC championship game and thus no auto bid.

Mr. Belding

4:34pm

Georgia vs GT has zero bearing on the SEC champ.

Kajdin

4:37pm

Yeah they're not in the same conference. I was just testing you.

Mr. Belding

4:50pm

They lose to GT, then they don't beat Texas. Complete wind out of their sails.

Yup, much more difficult now for BYU. Thanks for making my point.

So UGA getting whooped means the SEC champ doesn’t deserve an autobid, right?
