Potential final ranking prognostication

[The Ols]

I saw Reese grill Hunter on that point

Hunter looks terrified…and who does he keep looking at on the side?

I come before the Tidefans forum and admit I was wrong. I said Bama would be out if they lost by more than 7. I am happy we are in but we better show up or OU is gonna take the belt to us. Forgive me

Also I know JMU and Tulane got in based on the criteria, but can we use some common sense? Anyone saying they are better than Texas, ND, and Vandy well I cant say what I want on a family friendly forum

one Georgia player was whipping the belt afterwards

 

[rtr90]

they satisfied both conference ACC , lack of conference ND and State of Indiana (incl IU dropping ND)

 

[CoolBreeze]

OU will still be a very tough out if we play like we did last night.

ND has had this coming to them for decades.

Agreed. If we lose three straight to the sooners, well, gonna be some reckoning in the offseason.

Oregon at #5....sneaking by without beating any good team and losing by 2 scores to Indiana....

Notre Dame... Welcome... To 1966... Sucks to be on the receiving end!

Hahahah... We need to figure out something on the OL next couple of weeks. I don't think we can fix it, but we need to take stock and rep work around plays constantly. We have to actually scheme around our weaknesses rather than run into the concrete wall every play.

Hopefully we will be a bit more healthy too...

 

[CajunCrimson]

The over under on Bama /Ou may be 10 with the way these teams are playing

Revenge factor helps us.

If DeBoer had guts, he’d play Mack to start the game and then bring Ty in the 3rd series.

Revenge factor helps us.

I thought so too, until a few weeks ago when we played them.

 

[CoolBreeze]

Not sure he has the stones. Makes Nick's decision in the NCG against Georgia all the more amazing.

 

[Cruloc]

I'm still in shock that Notre Dame was dropped out.

It really wasn’t his decision. Daboll and Locksley had a lot to do with it in the locker room.

 

[CB4]

Money to be had if you had Notre Dame out or Miami in.

 

[Tug Tide]

All I remember from that game is the defense being in Ty's face play after play. The OL has their work cut out for them between now & 12-19.

That’s what Ty remembers from the last month and a half too

 

[tusks_n_raider]

If DeBoer had guts, he’d play Mack to start the game and then bring Ty in the 3rd series.

That potentially has a psychological upside.

Light a fire under Ty if that could possibly help.

If it doesn’t then have both Mack and KR ready anyway.

We won’t beat OU with the way the Offense has played for the last half of the season.

I’m also not opposed to giving the OC duties to someone else because QB isn’t the only problem.

 

[KrAzY3]

I don't mind the Oklahoma matchup. If you're coaches and players it's a perfect chance to try to clean up all those mistakes.

 

[davefrat]

I agree that Ty has regressed, but with how bad the O line is, is it realistic to expect Mack or Russell to be any better?

The O line is just terrible.

 

[carder24]

The big 12 and big 10 already play a 9 game schedule, however, the big 10 seems to protect the upper tier teams in the conference by having them play the mediocre to bad teams and one or two teams that are equal.

This, and confirmed / obvious from Day and Downs comments this season

 

[tusks_n_raider]

I agree that Ty has regressed, but with how bad the O line is, is it realistic to expect Mack or Russell to be any better?

The O line is just terrible.

I’m not sure it’s realistic at all.

Just that we have to be prepared to try and do something different that could possibly provide a spark.

I love Ty and I do think he’s a combination of hurt but also mentally rattled.

His pass attempts yesterday were just awful many times.

He’s playing every bit as bad as Jalen Hurts in late 2017 and #4 late last year.

You gotta try someone else and at least just see if it helps.

We literally can not be worse than what we already are right now on Offense.

I like it too, I think familiarity here helps us with turnaround and preparation. Team can have positive confidence, and limit mistakes. Hopefully day game, not at night there
