    Big 12 is definitely better than the ACC. The same ACC that won 6 of 10 games against the SEC this season. Maybe every team and conference is bad. 

    Forget the conference comparisons for a moment.  The fact that 2 conferences with so much overlapping and close proximity only plays 10 games against each other with a combined 28 schools is just sad.

    The team that Texas beat today to win the Big 12 lost to UCF by 42 points and South Alabama by 26.  How much weight is that conference title since they didn’t have to play Oklahoma?  How bad was that conference?

    Michigan and Washington and argue.  I repeat.

    If it’s up to me I’m leaving FSU out. That offense does not belong anywhere near the playoff. 

    If, yes a useless if U of L had won they could have actually made this easy on the committee. Your statement of the 2 that were not champions would have likely set up the perfect scenario to tell the public. Now, they have to explain away the perfect record of FSU if that is in fact the team left out with the University of California at Austin and Alabama being the final 2.

    Georgia and Ohio State are out since they’re not conference champs.
     

    Next part depends on whether the committee wants the best teams right now (Bama and Texas) or the teams with the best resume (undefeated FSU and Texas with a double digit win in Tuscaloosa). 

    You very well may be describing how the committee does this. Who do "we" eliminate first?

    Pick 2

    FSU 13-0 ACC Champ

    Alabama 12-1 SEC Champ

    Texas 12-1 Big 12 Champ

    Georgia 12-1

    Ohio State 11-1

     

    If this was next year it would be interesting to see the 3 of these that would have to play in round 1. You going from arguing you are a top 4 seed to facing someone the likes of the MWC champ and hoping you can keep players focused.

    So, I wonder if the total attendance was 10K.  It seemed to be at least 3 to 1 PNG fans.  Maybe it was more. Not sure. 

    Sat on Huntsville side as I mentioned in a few post. To say it was thin in number would be an understatement. Would take someone that sat on the PNG side to "guesstimate" how many section they could have filled.  Each section seats around 800.

    I want to share a story from last year.

    After the game, my folks and I went to the Whiskey Cake in Katy for a very late dinner. I had driven in from Leander that afternoon and they had left PN-G late due to work. Nobody’d had the time to eat beforehand.

    There was a family in the restaurant from Liberty Hill sitting a few tables down from us. They had a little girl with them, maybe seven or eight years old, and an older boy who appeared to be late middle school or early high school age. I figured he was a player on the freshman team.

    That little girl realized we were from PN-G and gave us the evil eye for the entire dinner. I’m talking a full hour of this girl glaring at us from across the dining area, non-stop. You could feel the heat coming off this girl’s gaze. I had to fight not to crack up all night because every time I’d look over to my left, I had the possessed girl’s hellish stare from the exorcism movie looking straight back at me. You could tell the PN-G crowd, the War Chant and Cherokee had driven this poor girl insane that night.

    Her parents picked up on what was going on and came over to talk to us after they finished their meal. Couldn’t have been nicer folks. Wished us luck in the championship, complimented the fan base - just nice, small town people. I told them I lived just down the road in Leander and drove in for the game. Even for a fan base like Liberty Hill’s that generally travels well, you could tell they were shocked that out-of-town alumni would make a drive like that to see the Indians play.

    This is the game where our fan base earned the “rabid” label online last year. Every time I think about that, I think about that ferocious glare from that little girl. I have a feeling I’m gonna feel it coming across the field at me again this year. Scalp ‘em!

    Sat on Huntsville's side last night. Never, yes never do I recall noticing a fan base other than the numbers. Seeing from the opposite side was interesting. That was a sight to behold and very impressive.  Not sure how to describe it other than to say again, impressive.

    Id say more like 15-20k

    Each section in the lower bowl on the sidelines hold around 850 people (22 seats per row with 36 to 39 rows depending on the section).  PNG has 3 sections at least 90% full and other sections filling 35 minutes before kickoff. Rough, very rough approximation of minimum 3000 already on PNG side. 

    Band and Drill Team seated in the north end zone. 

  9. Nicholls travels to Southern Illinois. UIW despite an 8-2 record is left out. UIW's lack of a quality win and close games against what would be considered weak opponents by the committee was the likely reasons. 

    Fourteen of the 24 teams come from 3 conferences. Missouri Valley has 6 and the Colonial and Big Sky each have 4. 

    Note: 27,000 plus attended the Montana v Montana State game yesterday. That total is approximately 2.5% of the state's population. Interesting that the 2 biggest sports programs of any type in the state are FCS schools.

    If that happened in Texas, you would need a 750,000 seat stadium. A silly but fun thought.
