November 10th CFP Ranking: OBD Jumps to Number 16
Team-by-team detail can be found in the 'At No. 16 Oregon Hosts a 1st-Round Playoff Game' post. The following results compare combined conference PO committee rankings with combined strength-of-record rankings (SOR). Compared to SOR, the B12 is receiving unwarranted love from the PO committee, and the committee respects the SEC. The Big Ten, and the ACC to a lesser extent, are getting the committee's shaft. The committee's use of metrics varies from one team and one conference to another. DUH! Hats off to Tony Petitii for holding his ground on a 24-team PO field. Now is the time for Tony to step up and insist upon changes to the committee's selection and seeding process. --- B12: +29 --- SEC: +6 --- Notre Dame: +2 --- Pac-12/ Boise State: -5 --- ACC: -7 --- Big Ten: -8 --- The CFB Committee should follow the CBB Committee's ranking policies and procedures, but it won't happen because E$PN is in it for the money and not the good of the game.

B1G disrespect for the Big Ten. I'm shocked! ðĪŽ

November 10th CFP Ranking: OBD Jumps to Number 16
I tend to agree if OBD win out and a combination of 4 of the following teams Texas Tech, Wake Forest, Kentucky, BYU, Houston, or Iowa lose just one more game it would put OBD in a good spot to get in. If the top teams stay where there are such as IU beating USC then USC will not jump OBD in the rankings with a big time win and a better record. Texas losing doesn't help us much but maybe if Tennessee loses and Kentucky drops another. That being said, if they lose to unranked teams, heck yeah. Getting into the championship game and winning seems more difficult and less likely to me.

Marsh Duck - Lanning is the Right Coach to get the Ducks a Championship
Lanning is wrapping up just his 5th season as a head coach, and when it's done his body of work in his first 5 seasons will be considered among the best first 5 seasons for a new head coach ever in major college football. We can appreciate that and enjoy the ride knowing that it will include ups and downs (long game with a young promising coach). Or we can look at every moment in a vacuum and call for his head whenever he missteps (but what have you done for me lately?). I know which camp I'm in, at least until the sky actually falls. But from the look of this thread I don't imagine opinions are going to be swayed on the matter, so I'm done burning energy on it. Go Ducks!

Marsh Duck - Lanning is the Right Coach to get the Ducks a Championship
I have been basking in the glow of a win over Ohio State in the Shoe this week, meanwhile you have been writing over-the-top and highly inflammatory posts. Below we see how Dan Lanning has done in five years...(4.75 yrs.) and he is tied for second in all of CFB, only trailing Georgia. And you want him gone? I notice you were not here during the back-to-back 13 win seasons, but show up on October 13th...simply to put down Oregon. Your posts have either been analytically negative, (which I approve of for everyone's learning) or they have been flat-out horrendously negative such as your posts in this thread which I believe goes too far, especially on this week.

hmm, could it be the players love black (ugh) and Lanning rewards them for their efforts? Or was this planned before the year started. I hope every time we reach the playoffs we wear traditional colors. Sure would be nice to see contrasting yellow and green/green and white/yellow and white. No green and green/white and white/yellow and yellow in the playoffs. Just pure Oregon quasi Green Bay. Like Iowa does. with the Steelers. I want some home grown pre wacky Nike throw it up on the wall stuff. Better yet, how about a tribute to "the Pick"? And to Rich Brooks right before he lifted us to recognition. A little old school can go a long way.

The front of the helmets also has Go Ducks written in Japanese script. Nice move to try to get a following in Japan.

Marsh Duck - Lanning is the Right Coach to get the Ducks a Championship
But most coaches can't plug the holes and the whole thing just sinks. Case and point... Penn State last year. That team took on holes and sunk. Parching holes mid season is hard and mostly unheard of. Minor problems sure ... Major problems almost never.

The Oregon Offense: What's Your Line?
What's left in the Wolverines' tank? All that's left to be played for on the field is pride and a who-gives-a-whip bowl game. (Who-gives-a-Whit?) Carr gets the start, but I imagine we'll see run plays designed for Underwood. Michigan's 2026 run game is missing in action; Underwood is the team's best RB. Does anyone know whether Michigan is bringing the band? Michigan, where fans are grateful for the start of basketball season. ðĪŠ
