Re: Worst CFP Finals ever

What a joke of an NC game. Quit watching at 38-7 before the half. 65-7 reminded me of 2016 SHSU @ JMU quarterfinals. Too bad Michigam choked vs TCU. They would at least have given UGA a game. Football is weird. That was the least resistance Georgia faced all year. The most points they scored all ye...

I don’t think that’s their conclusion. Also, did it take into account levels of community spread, relaxed mandates, social behavior?

Re: Title Game - (#3) NoDak State vs. (#1) SoDak State

Yeah. I pretty much decided that this was not a vintage North Dakota State defense when I watched the Incarnate Word game. And this last game pretty much confirmed it. Not that it wasn't a good defense. But not like North Dakota State usually has.

I think the Jacks are the better team, but things always seem to work out for the Bufs in Frisco, so I'll believe they'll lose if/when they actually do. i think that every time North Dakota State has won the championship game in Frisco they have clearly been the better team. And almost always to a ...

Wow those were two good football games. The Ohio State/Georgia game was particularly good.

Incarnate Word Trivia

What team held Incarnate Word to its lowest point total of the season?

Prairie View. 31. How weird is that?

I still wonder how Incarnate Word's offense would have done playing South Dakota State against what is probably the best defense in FCS in the conditions Montana State played them in.

West is best duh! It wasn't like that before the game moved to Frisco. As noted: Before the championship game moved to Frisco, 26 of 32 national championships were won by programs east of the Mississippi River. I mean, it's coincidence. North Dakota State didn't win all those national titles becaus...

Re: SF - (#4) Montana St. @ (#1) SoDak State

I've found myself kind of wishing the brackets had been different so that we could see Incarnate Word playing South Dakota State in these conditions. Be interesting to see how they'd do in these conditions against a top MVFC defense that isn't depleted by injuries as much as North Dakota State's was.

Re: SF - (#4) Montana St. @ (#1) SoDak State

Big Sky defense needs to buckle up and stop the Jacks. I cringed when I watched the play live. I think he did drop control of it before it hit the plane. Really got luck that they didn't have camera placement sufficient to overturn it. I've seen players do that from time to time. I just don't get it.
