HokieStone Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 We had Notre Dame on the ropes...and let it slip away. Damnation. Meaningless game in the ACC, so we started the former 3rd string QB in order to let the 1st string guy rest for another week. But damn...Notre Dame.

dbunting Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Had a guys road trip this weekend, went to the Michigan Maryland game in Maryland. Nice drive, spent a few hours in DC Friday checking out the monuments, got to see Marine One take off, which explained all the roads blocked leading to the front of the White House and the SS stationed at each entrance w assault rifles. Tailgated before the game, just as many Michigan fans there as Maryland. Nice stadium, good atmosphere and they actually sell beer??? Michigan and Michigan State stadiums don't sell any alcohol so this was a pleasant surprise. Had some damn good fried chicken at a local chain, Pollo Campero(?). Not sure if it was that we were all starved or not but man that was good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingintheNorth4 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 A small part of me still thinks that Bama can still come back and win this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DireWolfSpirit Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 ^^^I know Minnesota could be this year's UCF, possibly winning out and be on the outside looking in at the FBS playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they won out I think they would have to be in the play off since that would mean they were undefeated and had wins over ranked Iowa and Wisconsin together with #4 PSU and #1 OSU.

Possibly, but what if OSU were to stumble in the B10 playoffs and Minnesota beats a lower ranked team in the B10 championship? Under that scenario I could see the GGophers getting snubbed from the FBS playoffs, at least theoretically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With PSU and Michigan at 2 losses each, OSU would have to lose its last two games (to those teams) to miss the championship game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess your right it's a different format than the basketball championship which is tournament style for B10 championship. So you guys think that Minnesota would be in if by some fluke they were able to take down the Buckeyes, it's a tall order but it would be such a wonderful, dramatic development to see such a dark horse team get that far.

Kalbear Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 A Minnesota team that is undefeated would have also beaten penn state, Ohio state and Wisconsin. Any power 5 undefeated team is going to make it in. FSU showed that despite not being very good in 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhom Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 While it’s hard to picture Minnesota in there, given the qualifiers that they would have the wins mentioned I think they’ll get in. You’ll have Clemson, the SEC champ, and Minnesota in that situation. Where things get interesting is what happens with the fourth spot. A one loss Alabama? One loss Ohio State? If Georgia were to beat LSU, you’d likely get UGA and the Tigers in. I don’t see a path for a BigXII this year and it might take a few things going just right to get Oregon in. These next few weeks will clarify much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I feel like he was before he took the Gophers job, so for sure now. Golden Gophers is such a great college, marmot mascot. He just signed an extension this week, 2026 I think?

Coaches signing extensions means nothing. If a big time school like FSU or USC want PJ and PJ wants to go, he's leaving. I'm surre a big time school would pay his buyout.
