2021 College Football Season/Playoff Thread

Clemson OL getting absolutely manhandled.

Clemson… doesnt look like Clemson

 

[OptimusPrime]

Georgia can't win a national championship with this QB.

still alabama’s world, we’re all just living in it.

This may be a hot take, but Clemson appears to be trending in the wrong direction. I think a lot of people underestimated how much they were being carried by a transcendent QB over the last 5-6 years (Watson & Lawrence). They've recruited well but not at a top tier level, and their last several games on the big stage reflect this, being grossly outplayed in each of them (LSU, OSU, UGA).

Will be interesting to see what happens with them moving forward. Of course, they don't play a single ranked team the rest of the season (lol), so they'll probably manage to sneak into the playoffs anyway.

Edit: Right on cue...

I’ve had this sneaky take since the end of last year. It could be classified as hot but I think there is truth to it.

Playing in the ACC has magnified this mini era of elite-ness for them, though, and it will probably help keep them relevant for a few extra years.

A week after beating Nebraska, Illinois loses to UTSA.

Took a minute, but Chip Kelly has something going on at UCLA now.

LSU 2019 flash in the pan modes

LSU 2019 flash in the pan modes

I called this one immediately

If Coach O is still there in a few years, I'd be stunned.

Are Indiana fans still talking? Or has that ship sailed

I still the right thing happened last year, but I don’t think this year should affect how people feel about last year. If you feel Indiana had a beef last year, this year doesn’t change it.
