There should be an ACC clause where they play in that title game if undefeated


If the ACC adopts a Big 12 style title game (which they should after lol Pitt in this years title game) then Notre Dame should be eligible for it.

Also I wouldn't call Notre Dames schedule weak by any stretch.

Let's compare their opponents to Georgia's

ND has a mix and matched Big 10/ACC/PAC 12 conference of:

Syracuse*
Pitt*
Wake Forest*
Florida State
Northwestern*
Michigan*
Stanford*
USC
Virginia Tech*

with at larges:
Vanderbilt*
Ball State (mid-major)
Navy (mid-major ind.)

Only two real cupcakes even on the schedule and neither is FCS and only 4 non bowl eligible opponents. Some of whom traditionally are pretty good like Navy, USC and Florida State.

Here's Georgia:
Austin Pea (FCS)
Georgia Tech*
Middle Tenn(mid major) *
UMass (FCS)

South Carolina*
LSU(L) *
Florida*
Kentucky*
Vanderbilt*
Tennessee
Missouri*
Auburn*

Alabama(L)*

The only way that doesnt look decently even to me is if you truly believe the SEC is THAT MUCH better than the other conferences and the fact that Ball State/Navy are better weakest schedule stops than Austin Peay and UMass.

Honestly this felt like the best case scenario. Murray felt like a poor man's DeShaun Watson in that he was doing enough to keep it respectable whereas Watson kept them in with a chance to win it.

Basically 45-34 is a much better game than I anticipated, 28-0 start not withstanding.


I think if Oklahoma doesn't get so gobsmacked and only go down say like 21-0 instead of 28-0 that this is a bit of a different game.

I don't think Love allows WR to get as open the way the backup did. Julian Love is much better one v one than his back is. Not too mention that was a circus catch to begin with. The guy who that was scored one was Loves backup.


One of the reasons Clemson is so good is that they are deep everywhere (except QB. Chase Brice isn't near Trevor Lawrence).

Clemsons superior depth is a valid reason for their victory.

If we only score 14 tonight then they might as well just have Bama and Clemson play 12 times a year.

Were gonna lose like 56-31

In fairness Georgia can hang with them too. They're the obvious #3 outside of whatever the hell they did at LSU.


But game results have to matter.

If you don't believe results matter we may as well go back to the poll era of National Championships because otherwise literally what is the point of a playoff.

Hard disagree.

WWE doesnt know how to do this right now. They'll just say HES THE LUNATIC FRINGE or HE WANTS TO BURN IT DOWN and think mission accomplished.

But you watch.... Fuck any other wrestling program but I am thinking most of PROGRESS, CHIKARA, Impact and even LU despite this seasons....problems.

Every wrestler has a purpose, a trajectory, goals. These can be simple like in Progress or they can be convoluted and layered like with this long term Allie story on Impact but it does a lot to make the program more watchable.

In WWE they have like... Maybe 5 or 6 total characters but for the most part people are jus sort of aimlessly feuding.

Shes over because shes a decent worker.

She hasnt had anything resembling an actual character since her call Up.


She didn't have a character in NXT, either. She's charismatic but that didn't translate to anything other than "she wins."


This is her main problem. This is also how they botched Nakamura before Nakamura decided he was done giving a shit. Other than the "Hes the Japanese Michael Jackson" push hes had no character.

Its genuinely difficult to get behind a character whose motivations are unknown and who never encounter obstacles that they then overcome. This is largely on WWE for not being able to tell stories non verbally. Its not just racism that results in foreigners being heels. You can successfully heel (in WWE) without speaking. Its much harder to baby face (in WWE) - especially in Asukas case where her broken English is so rough that it undermines any legitimacy her fighting stype might lend her (though her emphasis on ass based combat does sort of lend her to midcard goofiness when combined with this)

I mean the WWE literally used Asuka's streak to put over Carmella.

I'm not sure what anyone could do with that.


The same Carmella who is currently ADMITTEDLY like their 7th most popular woman primarily for her goofy dance break gimmick.

Like her win over Charlotte makes NO sense and has been booked as basically nit javing happened which means Asukas streak did... Nothing. For anyone.

So you guys think the rules should be more like 'unarmed attacks and magic are go but weapons are verboten'? Cause I can agree with that so long as we don't go back to the absolutely asinine situation where everyone who isn't Balrog or a High Tier mercenary loses for free to Mac in the ring. Home field advantage is one thing, but autowinning against most of the mercs cast is an entirely different matter.


Well you have to understand this is Macs ONLY value.

In actual matches he contributes NOTHING he is basically just a free kill of anyone 4 or lower with only a few exceptions once every 5 weeks which works well

The anomalous Tifa win aside that's pretty much what macs level was shown to be.

If you want that to be "a free kill of some but not all 2 and some 3s" instead that's fine but I think it will result in mac not getting bought.

If you're saying Asuka is Mankind (c) rather than TAKA (c) and that Becky should easily have the title over Charlotte or Asuka right now then sure I agree with you there.

Even Becky (c) isn't main event worthy right now though.


Yeah I only went Taka because Mankind wasn't really a straitlaced babyface either but in terms of card position is more accurate.

I think overall Lopen has the right of it - while Becky and Ronda are over enough to anchor main events they dont REALLY have anyone able to fight them that are any level of popular other than maybe Charlotte because shes the only heel even remotely close to them.


Lopen's more or less agreeing with us though that women main eventing aren't yet a big draw, not that people just aren't interested in seeing Asuka win. The first very much doesn't really imply the latter in any way.


What house show match draws more interest?

Austin (c) vs Triple H

Or

Triple H (c) vs Austin.

That's my only point there.

That said a bit of this is bad luck re:the divisions stars prior to Ronda coming on board.

Paige is out forever, Bliss is out for a while, Nikki is basically retired, AJ has been blackballed and that sums up their most popular acts going back like 10 years.

Its doesnt help that 3 of those 4 acts are rather limited in ring either. Like even if Nikki suddenly unretired she would have a difficult time running a 20 minute main event with Becky.

I think that the women basically have two main eventers.

Then Charlotte just because theyve done a good job protecting her. In the TLC I woukd say she definitely got the weakest reaction at first but then won over the crowds respect with how vicious she got.

People like Nia Jax and Asuka are another level below her before you start getting into people who are basically midcard people like Nattie and Ruby and then a whole slate of jobbers.

But both crowds had a lot of people leave before and during the matches.
