Who you have in the first round?

Notre Dame/IU….I really don’t know. I’ll pick ND but either team can win this. I’ll go ND 34-31 (do t care who wins, just no crappy officiating helping one or the other)

SMU/Penn St….feels like PSU should dominate the LOS and win this game. I’ll take PSU 27-18 (rooting SMU though)

Clemson/Texas….this one is tough for me. I do not feel Clemson is very good. I’ve watched several games and even watched them live…BUT, I also don’t think Texas is as good as their year long ranking. I think their ceiling is very high but are upset-able a bit. I think UT plays not so great and lucky Dabo sneaks a W (like they have multiple times this year) or Texas big. I’ll go Texas 36-23

Ohio St/Tenn….UT’s d-line scares me but if Day and Kelly have their heads out if they’re asses I think OSU takes it. If OSU goes through the predicable motions on 1st down…Tenn might make it ugly. I’m taking Ohio St 34-24

Also….SMU/Penn St will be on same time as Texans/Chiefs

Clemson/Texas will be on same time as Steelers/Ravens


Big big games

ND

PSU

Texas 

Tenn

And I parlayed this. 

Also tickets are cheap for the OSU game I think fans are done with Day and OSU better take this as a Statement. The face I can get two tickets in a Deck for less then 400 with fees says a lot.

Yes, many of my FB friends trying to sell theirs and at way discounted prices compared to any other OSU game in a good while

I thought IU would put up a bigger fight than this.

They can’t do anything on offense and not tremendous on defense

I’m wondering if tonight’s game is how PSU - SMU will go tomorrow. Cold, low scoring. SMU gets exposed like Indiana did.

Maybe…but ND has done most things well, not sure Penn St can play this clean in a game all-around

IU was a fraud.
