That senile old fool Lee Corso said today that "UC was lousy", and not worthy of the CFP.

B.C.

Totally low class thing for him to say. Our Bearcats have earned the right to play in the CFP. This year just proves how tough it is for even great teams to go either undefeated or one loss. We are all frustrated that we can't put up "style points" every game but sometimes gutting it out in a rockfight is worth more than "style points". And finishing ahead of TO$U in any poll would be priceless!!!!

Well, Auburn is beating Bama right now. The flu bitting MSU is just ahead of PSU and Wisconsin in struggling against Minn.

Later tonight the the Big 12 comes into play. #10 OU goes to Stillwater where we should probably root for them to beat #7 OK St and drop them in the rankings, #8 Baylor played Texas Tech and won a close one earlier today. If Im not mistaken that cliches a rematch between OU and OSU in the Big 12 Championship because OK ST has the head to head tiebreaker over Baylor if they were to lose. The Big 12 Champion still has a chance at the CFP if the team that comes out of that mess only has one loss.

I think Baylor plays in big 12 title game if Oklahoma loses

Hypothetical fun:

Auburn drops Alabama
Michigan loses in big ten title game
Georgia loses in sec title game
UC wins aac title game
=

Cincinnati #1 seed 😊

And you are correct. I was looking at OK St vs Baylor and forgot Baylor beat OU

Nice thinking but in the CFP world, if the above happens, UC drops to 5.

BTW, Wisconsin dropping yo Minn. and Bama in 2 OT still in play.

How is that style points for Bama to beat a 6-6 Auburn team in 4 OTs?

You know they will use that game as an excuse to prop Auburn up to the top 15.

I was thinking more like how they will excuse Bama to stay in the top 4.

I agree they should drop, but "the SEC is sooooo good Auburn should be ranked" will be the argument of a lot of people.

And ND is beating a team with a losing record yet the announcers state that ND looks like a playoff team.

[bearcatbret]

How does OK State's win agains OK deal against UC? OK State handed OK 9 points with the fumble for a safety and then the next kick-off fumble for a TD.

[GoBearcats31]

Hoping for the following:
- Alabama ranked no higher than #3 (easier to drop them below UC from 3 than if they were #2 and lost closely to #1 UGA)
- Notre Dame stays above Oklahoma State (Oklahoma State at #5 winning over Baylor is going to allow them to potentially jump #4 UC winning over Houston - so let's keep the distance)
- Maybe Ohio State, at least for now, stay above ND and/or OK State to create further distance between UC and OK State
