Well, I would be thrilled to see a 3 loss Alabama being left out of the PO field. The fewer the sec teams the better.

How does this guy still have a job??? I would be embarrassed if I was a Penn St. fan. Wait until the transfer portal decimates their roster even more. It may take many years for Penn St. to recover and be relevant in college football again.

I like any format with 3 or 4 auto bids for the B1G. This way you go into the season knowing what you have to accomplish to get a shot at a national championship. Your fate is in your hands not the committee's. The fewer at large bids the better in my opinion because we all know that the sec will get the majority of those at large bids.

It can be fun to speculate on matchups but the final poll will not look like this one. I guess I've gotten old (61) because I currently only care about us winning our next two games and getting into the playoffs. Who we play is not as important as making sure we are part of the field. Unfortunately with the narrative that the selection committee and ESPN is spinning we must win our last two games. I realize that OBD will probably be 1-3 spots below were we deserve to be in the final rankings.

I think the goal should be to win the conference each year and let the playoff seedings work themselves out. I bet the coaches and players would love a rematch with Indiana. That's the mentality of great competitors.

If you are a current freshman at OSU, this might be only time in the upcoming 4 years that you get to storm the field. Might as well have fun when you can.

I believe if OBD wins out and finishes the regular season at 11-1 we will be in the playoffs. I refuse to worry about the idiot pundits that are associated with ESPN.

Oregon's official roster on goducks.com lists Novosad as a redshirt sophomore and Moga as a redshirt freshman. Interesting rumor about a possible medical redshirt for Novosad. I would guess that the coaches hope to redshirt freshman Akili Smith JR.

While we do not have an elite RB, I would not call our RB's average. I have been impressed with our depth at RB and I feel we have several very good RB's.

Charles, I agree with all of your statements. I have given up on looking for perfection on every single play. I'll let the coaches worry about pushing the players for the mythical perfect game. While, I'd love to have a National Championship, I'm just happy that we get to watch such a great program each week and season that Dan Lanning is our coach. It won't last forever.

A new metric would not have been added unless it helped the SEC and ESPN while hurting the rest of college football.

I wondered when USC would get smarter with their scheduling. Having a SEC powerhouse in September and then Notre Dame late in the season along with a nine game conference schedule is too difficult of a regular season for todays college football.

I am very happy for coach Lombardi and the team. To get two wins today with the bats and not superior pitching was fantastic. Earlier in the year the pitching got us the big wins over the best teams. Now the hitters came through when needed. If they follow up these two wins with a World Series berth then we may look back at this weekend as the career defining moment for coach Lombardi and her program. GO DUCKS!!!

If you go back to the start of the Indiana series, Oregon has not had a dominant pitcher. Something happened to Grein's dominance from earlier in the year. Here are Greins last 6 outings. I will list the innings pitched & earned runs given up. Indiana series G1: 4.1 & 4 G2: 2.2 & 0. G3: 1.2 & 5 MSU series G1: 1.1 & 4 G3: 2.0 & 3 BIG10 Tournament Michigan 2.1 & 3 Unfortunately OBD picked a bad time of the year to have their slump

According to the seedings the committee felt Oregon would have been the 10th best team in the SEC and the 4th best team in the ACC. Personally, I think that is BS. Oregon went 5-1 against #5 FSU (2-0), #7 Tennessee (1-0) and #9 UCLA (2-1). FSU and Tennessee couldn't even score a run against the Ducks. Oregon deserved a much higher seed.
