National Championship Discussion Thread

Agree but the same is true of other conferences.

Pac 12- Oregon and who?
Big 10: Ohio St.
Big 12: Pretty much only Baylor and Oklahoma, and Baylor has never been a serious contender.
ACC: FSU, and then Clemson this year.

If you break it down even more it looks like this. In the last decade only Oregon has played for a title in the Pac 12, Ohio St. is the only big 10 team since 02', Oklahoma and Texas have played for a title since 05', and then FSU and Clemson two of the last 3 years. Not at all different from the SEC.

I just made a similar thread.

Next year I would be shocked to see UNC, Duke, Georgia Tech, Miami, or VA Tech in the final four playoffs.

I don't see any PAC 12 team making it next season outside of Oregon.

I could see Baylor or TCU slipping in but doubtful.

The Big10 is OSU and a slim chance of Meatchiken.

As stated if UT, Ole Miss, LSU, or Auburn made it in, I wouldn't think "miracle" despite whatever handicappes they had. UF has work to do but it wouldn't be a world shocker. Our 06 team put it together under a second year coach. As much as I hate to say it I think UGA could compete in two years.

Clemson has already been ranked #1 in the "WAY WAY TOO EARLY" poll for this fall.

He's actually got TWO rings.

Was curious if any other college player had done that. Two NC rings at two different schools.

Good ol Cam Newton.

He actually has three counting his JUCO national title.

Auburn sucks.

The SEC has won 8 of the last 10 national titles by 4 different schools. What other conferences have done that or have the depth the SEC has. Yes Bama is a powerhouse. Doesn't take anything away from the other big time football programs in the SEC or the successes other teams in the conference have had.

And the SEC went 9-2 in bowl games, but "the conference is trending down".

 

[GatorGray]

Even Ray Charles could see that the SEC is trending down, while the ACC is trending up.

What does that mean? Could you explain?

LOL!

It is kind of like a Wake Forest or Vanderbilt cheer.
