I wouldn't call a 6 point win a triumph... More a struggle win. Would not be surprised to see Alabama drop in the rankings

 

[The Whispering Monk]

I would, simply b/c it's Alabama.

Crimson Tide triumps over the Tigers!

Survived a big scare.

We'll find out what the College Football Playoff Committee unveils on Tuesday.

The only thing potentially saving Alabama is that Cincinnati also had a scare

I've NEVER warmed up to Cincinnati from the get-go.

 

[LordSunhawk]

They're still the best team in Ohio!

Good Morning Sietch family. Here are some developments in College Football:

*Boise St defeats Wyoming late last night 23-13, making the Broncos bowl eligible with (6-4) record & 2 more games left in the season which could give Boise St (8-4) overall if they keep winning out.

*#5 Cincinnati pulls away defeating South FL 45-28. Big question is whether this will hurt their chances of getting into the College Football Playoff ?

They're 10-0 and, like most teams, don't get to pick most of their schedule. They'll likely have to play Houston for the AAC Conference Championship. If they win out they're propably in.

Big question is whether Cincinnati can avoid having their defense getting torched in the next 2 regular season games ?

 

[49ersfootball]

I'll be watching NM St @ #2 Alabama on SEC Network 11:00 AM CST this morning.

 

[The Whispering Monk]

One game I'm just not understanding is Samford @ Florida. 1 minute left in the 1st HALF and Samford is ahead 42 to 35...in the FIRST HALF!

Defense, wth is that!?

 

[49ersfootball]

Howdy from the Alamo City Sietch family. Here's the latest developments of yesterday's games:

*#1 Georgia blows out Tennessee 41-10 in Knoxville.

*#2 Alabama keeps rolling blowing out NM St 59-3 in Tuscaloosa, AL; the defending national champions all but clinch the SEC West due to #11 Texas A&M losing to #15 Ole Miss 29-19.

*#13 Baylor upsets #8 OU 27-14 in Waco, TX yesterday afternoon.

*Kansas upsets Texas 57-56 with a game-winning 2-point-conversion in Austin, TX.

University of Washington Director of Athletics Jennifer Cohen announcing she's fired Washington Huskies Football Coach Jimmy Lake fired after 2 Seasons in Seattle with (7-6) overall record.

@bintananth @LordSunhawk ACC Network reporting VA Tech Hokies Football Coach Justin Fuente is out after 5+ seasons.

 

[LordSunhawk]

Saw that, not too surprised.

 

[49ersfootball]

Saw that, not too surprised.

Fuente needed to go (9-3) or at least (10-2) to save his job. I had no clue he was on the Hot Seat.

 

[LordSunhawk]

Virginia Tech has been struggling for a while, and I seem to recall some minor bruhahas with players there. A 9-3 season would have helped, a 10-2 would have likely saved his job, but he was on the Hot Seat all season.

I'm still waiting to see what happens in Florida, that seat must be getting REAL hot right now.

Mullen badly needs to win out to save his job including winning a bowl game.
