Takes
PFT CommenterJMU isn't like Liberty; they will be competitive in the playoff
We're not fucking Liberty, dude. We have sex at James Madison University. It's encouraged, it's mandatory. ... If one of those teams keeps it competitive, they might not change the format too much.
PFT CommenterKalen DeBoer would pick up the phone if Michigan called him for their head coaching vacancy
I do think Kalen DeBoer would pick up the phone. Obviously he's got his hands full right now with the playoffs.
PFT CommenterJMU will cover the +21.5 spread against Oregon
JMU's in the playoffs. We were playing against Oregon... I bet on JMU to cover at 21 and a half when the line came out. I think that there's a good chance that JMU can cover that.
Big CatTexas should not be in the College Football Playoff because they lost to Florida
I have a take and, and people will probably say this is wrong, but it's my take... Texas is out... That Florida lost. I know they have three very good wins... that's not a playoff team.
PFT CommenterThe College Football Playoff committee is intentionally keeping JMU out because they don't want any 'presidents' in the bracket
I think it's a anti-PFT thing. I think maybe the college football playoff committee has gone woke and they don't want any presidents in their bracket. Makes sense. It's sad. I mean, just fast forward 20 years, Trump University probably will be blacklisted too.
Andy StaplesIowa could make the 12-team playoff if they run the table
I'll give you a a one that I think is really interesting and they're not even ranked yet... Iowa. Iowa's gotta run the table. But they're if they can beat USC they have to beat Oregon too... if you can beat both those two teams, you can win out and you will make the playoff at 10 and two with that record and that schedule.
Big CatWisconsin Football is currently the worst program in Power Four football
Wisconsin football just because they're the worst team in college football, Power Four college football. It's an absolute joke what's happened to the program. They haven't scored a touchdown in two games. The culture's broken, the program's broken.
Big CatThe Penn State firing of James Franklin was necessary
James Franklin fired Penn State... You had to because Ir because they're gonna have to recruit and get, like, you can't fire your coach... where's he gonna get drafted? I don't, I don't know. He should've left late. He's gonna, he would've been a first round pick if he went last year.
Tom FornelliTexas A&M is the most surprising SEC team that could run the table the rest of the season
I would say Texas A&M. I do think that they're legitimately good. ... They've kind of figured things out and gotten their act together the last few weeks. ... I'm not saying that they will, I'm just saying they strike me as a team that is much better than anybody truly expected.
Big CatUSF is currently the best team in the country
College football. USF is the best team in the country. Resume. Debate me. USF... Are they the only team that's beaten two ranked opponents? I believe so. So they beat Boise State and then they beat Florida. I think they're, I think you can make the case. They should be ranked higher. Top 10.
Big CatOregon looks like the best team ever
Oregon looks like the best team ever. Well they do. Dan Lanning... we gotta put a reminder out there that Dan Lanning, if anyone steps to Dan Lanning, take the other side.
PFT CommenterMichael Jordan needs to be allowed back on the UNC football sidelines with a headset for decision making
I would say maybe Jordan needs to be allowed back on the sidelines headset. Why are you kicking Jordan out of all decision making from the team and then acting surprised when you get the shit kicked out of you by TCU week one?
PFT CommenterAlabama is back to being a regular program like it was before Nick Saban
This is going back to Bama. This is what you were before Nick Saban was there. That's what you're gonna be after Nick Saban leaves, unless you find the next Nick Saban.
PFT CommenterNico Iamaleava should transition to being a wide receiver
Nico, I'm a receiver. Yeah, that's, that's what I'm calling him... I think he's very fast. I think he's got great change of direction. I think he has no idea how to throw like an intermediate pass whatsoever.
Brandon WalkerPenn State will beat Notre Dame in the College Football Playoff semifinal
I have Penn State winning this game because I think Penn State and Notre Dame are very, very, very similar... I think Penn State's a little bit better version of the team they're going for... great defense, better quarterback... I don't think Drew Aller is gonna make the mistakes the backup quarterback [for Georgia] made.
Big CatOhio State is the best team in the country as long as they don't have to play Michigan
Ohio State is just a team on a mission right now. I don't know what else you can say. Like they are, as long as they don't have to play Michigan, they are the best team in the country.
HankIndiana and Clemson are the two best upset bets in the first round of the CFP
Indiana and Clemson are the two horses I'm riding. I think the weather, I think the big, I think the weather, it's big 10 weather. It's tough to go against Penn State and Ohio State. I think Indiana's got a shot. And I think Clemson has a real shot because Indiana's Big 10. Notre Dame's not big.
Ashton Jeanty deserves the Heisman over Travis Hunter
If I had to vote for the Heisman, I would vote for Ashton [Jeanty]. I think I would personally vote for Jeanty. I think it's not talked about enough that the seconding rusher in the country is Ashton Jeanty after contact. I think it's insane.
PFT CommenterGeorgia is the best team in the college football country
I think Georgia at their best beats any team at their best. I think Georgia at their worst also beats any team at their worst. Like the floor for Georgia is higher than any other team's floor. And I think that Georgia, like medium Georgia probably beats everybody at their medium except for maybe Alabama.
PFT CommenterTennessee could beat Georgia because Georgia's offense isn't great and Tennessee's defense is good
I wouldn't be surprised if Tennessee was able to beat Georgia. Georgia's not a great team either. Georgia's offense is not that good. Tennessee's defense is pretty good.
Ross DellengerGeorgia is the best team in the SEC
I think we all probably saw the best team in the SEC on Saturday night in, in it's Georgia. It's a healthy Georgia... they got pretty much everybody back against Texas And it showed. And that's, that's what they are. So to me Georgia's probably, you know, the best team in the league.
Ross DellengerBilly Napier and Dave Aranda are the coaches on the hottest seats in college football
Billy Napier would be a 10... [Dave Aranda] probably that's a 10 with Billy.
PFT CommenterTexas is inevitable and is in a tier by themselves
Texas, to me, Texas will learn a lot about them this weekend. I feel like they're inevitable. I feel like this is Texas and then everybody else.
PFT CommenterAshton Jeanty should sit out the rest of the season to protect his NFL draft stock
With the state of the running back position in the NFL where you have to maximize your healthy years... Is it crazy to think maybe Jeanty should just sit down for the rest of the season? I would agree. He's already got a season's worth of stats.
Booger McFarlandTexas and Alabama will play in the College Football National Championship
College Football national championship game. I'm going to go Texas versus Alabama.
PFT CommenterThe wheels are officially going to fall off for Deion Sanders and Colorado
The wheels could fall off [at Colorado]. Oh yeah, the wheels could fall off. I mean I think the wheels are gonna fall off.
Tom FornelliClemson will win the ACC
I have Clemson winning the ACC too. I do think receiver-wise they're gonna be better than they were last year... I think Dabo can win the ACC without using the portal because I don't think the ACC is that good.
Tom FornelliNico Iamaleava is the best quarterback in the country
I'm telling you, Nico's [Iamaleava] the best quarterback in the country. Size-wise, talent-wise, ability-wise, fit in the offense that he's in... I already have the future on Nico's Heisman.
Tom FornelliOklahoma will finish with a better SEC record than Texas in their first year
Oklahoma finishes with a better SEC record than Texas. I think Jackson Arnold will be a step forward for them... my concerns about Texas are shared.
Big CatFlorida State still controls their own destiny despite the Week 0 loss
Florida State has controls their own destiny now. Whereas last year they won all their games and didn't control their own destiny. So they actually control their own destiny even though they lost the first game. So they're not out of it.
Andy StaplesOhio State has zero excuses and must win the National Title this year
They really is no excuse. Not only should they win the Big 10, they should win the national title. There's no excuse. It is national title or bust. You're not really gonna miss Marv [Marvin Harrison Jr.] because they have Jeremiah Smith.
Andy StaplesNebraska will likely start the 2024 season 6-1 or 7-0
I'm looking at their schedule... six and one or seven and oh going to the Ohio State game is not out of the realm of possibility for Nebraska. I want it so bad because they'll have that little number next to their name.
Big CatMiller Moss will win the Heisman Trophy
I'm gonna go with Miller Moss, USC. They play LSU week one. I think it's actually the Sunday game. So it's gonna be a standalone game if he comes out and balls... I also am high on USC this year simply because they got rid of Alex Grinch, the worst defensive coordinator of all time.
Will ComptonNebraska will go 10-2 and compete for a playoff spot
Honestly, man, I think that they could, I think that they could compete this year... I think they could go 10 and two. You gotta think about it when you, if we're going into Ohio State, we're seven and oh... I think Raiola is gonna be a stud. We returned most of the black shirts, top defense last year.
HewyThe Sherrone Moore NCAA text deletion scandal won't be a big deal in a week
He [Sherrone Moore] deleted a couple text messages in regard to Connor Stalions and his possible knowledge on the situation... 52 text messages... I don't think anyone's gonna talk about this in a week from now.
PFT CommenterLSU should find a way to vacate Nick Saban's wins to be real haters
What I think LSU should do, find something that happened when Nick Saban was there, because Nick Saban is up for eligibility next year. And if they took away his wins at LSU... If you want to be a real hater, you could do that to a coach that left you and then came and coached for your rival.
Andy StaplesMike Norvell is my guess for the next Alabama head coach
I'm going to say Mike Norvell. That is going to be my guess. He's been recruiting in this area... Florida State has to recruit against Alabama, Auburn, Georgia... You are already in that world. You're just not in the same conference.
PFT CommenterMichael Penix Jr. should be the first quarterback taken in the NFL Draft
Michael Penix [Jr.] should be the first quarterback taking the draft. Michael Penix is so fucking... He was good. Tonight, this might be the best college football performance from a quarterback I've seen in a very long time.
Big CatYou cannot leave an undefeated Florida State out of the College Football Playoff
If Florida State can be kept out if they're undefeated? I don't think you can... They won't leave out an undefeated Florida state. I'm pretty confident. And if they do, like everything's a mockery. Because you, you, it doesn't matter who's starting quarter, if they win all their games in a Power five conference, like you're essentially saying games don't matter.
PFT CommenterBoth Georgia and Alabama will make the College Football Playoff this year
I think we're gonna end up with Georgia and Alabama in the Final Four. I could be wrong.
Big CatThe Heisman will come down to Bo Nix vs. Michael Penix Jr. in the Pac-12 championship game
I think the Heisman is gonna just come down to if Oregon and Washington play in the Pac-12 championship game, Bo Nix or Michael Penix who plays better and it would be so awesome if Bo Nix won the Heisman.
Big CatOregon is currently the best team in the Pac-12 despite their loss to Washington
I do think Oregon, what they did in Utah on Saturday, like that doesn't happen to Utah. They bullied him. Oregon. It's weird because even though they lost to Washington, they look like they're the best team in that conference right now.
PFT CommenterI'm betting the over on Northwestern vs Iowa's historic 29.5 total
The lowest over, under total. Yes. In the history of college football at Wrigley... This is 29 and a half, right? 29 and a half. It's Northwestern Iowa. I think I have to go to this game... I'll bet the over.
Big CatWisconsin will shock the world and upset Number 3 Ohio State
Boys, I believe that the badgers are gonna upset and shock the world. And I know that this is how it happens to me... 20 years ago this month a freshman Big Cat stormed the field when Wisconsin... beat number three Ohio State. And 20 years later, a double digit underdog is playing number three Ohio State.
Big CatJim Harbaugh had no knowledge of the Michigan sign-stealing scandal
I'm going with the theory that Jim Harbaugh had no knowledge of it and that Michigan is going to get sanctioned and Jim Harbaugh, 'cause he had no knowledge of it, has to recuse himself from Michigan and go coach the Chicago Bears.
Will ComptonNebraska will win their next three games and finish the season bowl eligible
Northwestern win, Purdue win, Michigan State a win. That's six and three... Maryland... Illinois just beat them like they're a beatable team. You win that you're seven and three, you're bowling.
