Week 14: What to watch, who to cheer for (if you want ND in the CFP)

Posted

 

Power 5 CC's and AAC bolded red (basically games that might impact ND, or are just big games)

 

Week 14
Friday, Dec. 3

  • Western Kentucky at UTSA (Conference USA Championship Game in San Antonio, Texas) | 7 p.m. | CBSSN
    • UTSA is fun team to watch

  • No. 10 Oregon vs. No. 17 Utah (Pac-12 Championship Game in Las Vegas, Nevada) | 8 p.m. | ABC
    • Doesn't really matter, but should be a decent game/rematch
  • Eastern Washington at Montana (FCS — Second Round) | 9 p.m. | ESPN+

Saturday, Dec. 4

  • No. 9 Baylor vs. No. 5 Oklahoma State (Big 12 Championship Game in Arlington, Texas) | 12 p.m. | ABC
    • Some folks and analytics say a Baylor win would help ND, some others suggest even Baylor would jump us with a win?

    • ND needs UGA big time... Hate cheering for either. Go Dawgs
  • No. 21 Houston at No. 4 Cincinnati (AAC Championship Game) | 4 p.m. | ABC
    • No question about it, a Cinci loss helps us here.
  • Prairie View A&M at Jackson State (SWAC Championship Game) | 4 p.m. | ESPN2
  • UT Martin at Montana State (FCS — Second Round) | 4 p.m. | ESPN+
  • No. 15 Pitt vs. No. 16 Wake Forest (ACC Championship Game in Charlotte, North Carolina) | 8 p.m. | ABC
    • This is the definition of weak sauce

Oregon still struggles vs Utah running game.

I like Utah to beat them again. I think OR is simply overrated, and Utah peaking at the right time. 

Still, a super weak P12 this year overall. 

It'll be interesting to see how both do in bowls vs other conferences. 

I'm watching The Last Cowboy now, but will be flipping over in 15. Hope it's a good game. 

Oregon getting pummeled.... I hope they can at least make this a good game to watch in the 2nd half.

They did not. I guess Utah feels like they didn't get their point across last time.

Boy that was a bad game. At least it made it easy to get some house work done at the same time.

Between the PAC and the ACC sucking this year, I feel like we're getting cheated out of good football this weekend.

B12 not much better.

I’m sure they are happy they ponied you for a third time to keep Mario Christobal at Oregon.

I wonder if it will work or if we announcement on Monday that Diaz is out and Cristobal is in. I still think he is a quality coach 

I feel like we need Baylor in a fairly close game. If Baylor continues to blow out OkSt it I going to give them a chance to jump us. Unlikely but still a chance.

I get it but BAYLOR winning is Better then OKSU

We know OKSU jumped us. Pokes are losing more then Baylor is winning if  the CFP truly watches the game like you and I are.
