    A few notes:

    Ohio st is a threat. This team for whatever reason was never complete with Cardale Jones as their leader. I have been saying for weeks that I thought this team was headed in the right direction, covering 2 large spreads back to back both in which I was on. Here is the issue I think most have, it's the schedule. But hey, you play the hand you're dealt, so with that being said Ohio st just needs to do whats in front of them and block out the haters. Keep winning and their in.

    Clemson's beat down of Miami yesterday even caught me off guard a little im not gonna lie. Look Miami is a very good offensive team and they got punked. I was almost sure we would win the game 10-14 point range, but that was a statement game IMO. But the beatdown IMO wasn't the most impressive thing Dabo did yesterday. Right before the half the Miami players were running their mouths like they were ALL DAY. Dabo sat his team down at mid field and told them there are women and kids in the stadium and if he heard them get caught up in that nonsense he would send them home. every player was completely locked in and quite. Dabo has this teams respect and they are locked in right now, as I said last week to few....If you don't think Clemson can play on the field with Bama or a LSU, you're a fool.

    Was not surprised at the USC beatdown of Utah. I was one of the first to call that Sunday evening. Look, Utah is a nice team and I had them in my top 5 and playoff because they were deserving. It didn't matter what my true opinion of them were. They deserved to be there, now with that being said, I knew things would work themselves out. GL the rest of the season Utah fans, you still have a very good football team.

    This nonsense about showing grit and toughness is pure and utter garbage. EsecPN should be ashamed of their propaganda. It's completely out of control. I can assure you with 100% certainty that if any other team would have struggled to beat a average and let's be completely honest here, Tennessee is a AVERAGE football team.... EsecPN would have called them out, but not Alabama. The rule book says, bama has to be ranked the highest 0 loss, 1 loss, 2 loss or 3 loss team. It's a freaking joke. When Alabama gets out in the real world like they have the last couple of years they get spanked. I cant wait for LSU to beat these guys, but hey....they will still be highest 2 loss team per handbook procedure.


    I could go on and on....got any questions? ask em. I will try to answer... get ready for week 9. Stay focused the season is now coming into shape and remember, The Best is Yet to Come!

    Keep up the Great work 


    CLEMSON Futures are looking great ...   Other than Ohio STATE I think the TIGERS have the easiest path REMAINING to the PLAYOFF .... D


    Do you have any concern about this week's Game at NC STATE ???   thinking if hedging and or laying some off the 33-1 Futures with at least $300 on the Pack ATS .. WHAT DO YOU THINK THE LINE WILL BE ???    I AM GUESSING -13.5 


    BIG 12 might knock each other out of the PLAYOFF picture .. TCU,BAYLOR,OKLAHOMA STATE AND OKLAHOMA have some BRUTAL round robin games to play ... 


    Right now my predictions are 
    1 OHIO STATE 
    2  CLEMSON  
    3  ALABAMA  (WINS OUT)
    4  STANFORD


    The TIDE got away with some OBVIOUSLY BRUTAL HOLDS ON THE O LINE on the final drive vs TENNESSEE ... I do disagree however as I thi.k the VOLS are a good team and would meet  Clemson in the ACC CHAMPIONSHIP game if they were in the conference .. 
    BEST OF HEALTH, HAPPINESS,WEALTH, BLESSINGS and LUCK TO ALL !!

    Tennessee is average. Nothing more...we have to stop assuming how teams would do in other conferences. That's the brainwashing EsecPN has done to your mind bro.

    Clemson will be a 12-14 point favorite. I do think this is a tough spot for them. I think it will be a close game for awhile....

    Clemson 41  NCST 20


    Alabama getting away with holds????? No, never would I have ever thought that.

    How far do you drop Baylor if Seth Russell is out for an extended period of time?

    Nobody knows the answer to that really... lets assume he is ok. If not, the young Jarret kid will have to step up.

    Without Seth, I think they might drop 1 or 2 games...maybe not tho because this team is amazing...so to be honest with you, I have no idea how much of a drop off it will be until we ALL see them play a few games without him.

    Seth Russel has a broken bone in his neck.  Will be out for a few weeks for sure, not sure how much tho.  If I had to bet on it, he'll be back this season. 

    I don't think this should worry many ppl tho.  Last year when Petty went down and Russel came in, they still were rolling.  Briles has endless qb talent on that bench for his system.  Might take a couple series to get the kid going, but I don't think this offense misses a beat 

    I know you already brought this up but I don't think it can be overstated.  How is Bama not getting raked over the coals for their 5 pt win over Tennessee AT HOME?!?!?  Not just on tv, where they are obviously not going to because of this myth that SEC conference play is tougher than any other conference, but also on here.  How anyone can say Tennessee is anymore than an average team is beyond me.  I said Bama would struggle with the rest of their schedule but not because it was any more difficult that anybody else's.  Simply just because they aren't as good as ppl think, ESPECIALLY their fans

    exactly.... When Tennessee came out last week I knew for sure I was on them.

    What is the one thing that really really hurts Alabama? It's the one thing they HAVE NO ANSWER for..... Anyone want to take a guess? I know the answer... just want to know if anybody else knows it.

    As for Clemson,its about time they had some good years ,you know like while we are still alive. Tennessee is better than you realize. The vols have already played Bowling Green ,Okla,Florida and Alabama. I know you don't give much respect to any of them but I do. I like Baylor but beating Iowa St. won't qualify as mush of a test. For years Baylor and TCU were the creampuff games for the SWC and the nation. You can hate on teams but you can't argue with history and their past performances

    Baylor QB is out. Brutal schedule for all Big 12 teams. Iowa is being discounted but in the Big team.n west they have the easiest path to being undefeated. Clemson controls their own destiny. Memphis needs Ol Miss to win out, besides win all their games,
    Baylor is done. TCU looks wobbly, but they are getting healthy and are very very clutch in big games,

    Trust me on this one, Baylor is not going to miss a beat with the new QB. It is going to be business as usual.

    Ratings:
    1 - Ohio State  (With Barrett at QB)
    2 - Clemson  (Best all around team)
    3 - Baylor  (The offensive is a machine)
    4 - Stanford (Very well balanced and disciplined)

    Neutral field i'll take Clemson over Bama all day....

    Bama struggles (if you can call it that) with 2 things.....atheletic qbs who can throw and/or the spread offense. The defense is full of robots. Terminators take time to process info. Put them in space and their programming has a glitch.....

    Bama has no answer for teams with a true deep passing attack.  
    See Ohio st and devin smith in the semis LY, and Ole Miss with Treadwell

    My top 10 and reads are almost dead on with some of the best cappers on here. Donno why I can't seem to win :/

    Also surprised Clemson was not #1. Clem, Baylor and OSU are top 3 and order will depend on win margins.

    Alabama is really not that good. I think the brand name era comes to an end. I wouldn't mind seeing:

    Clem / Notre Dame
    Baylor / Ohio State

    Clemson wins by 3-4
    Baylor wins by 8-11

    Finals: It would be an epic to the likes of USC/Texas. Winner is team with big play on the end.

    I agree with relax dude ...Baylor is done with qb out...Iowa might be the team in big 12...   But    Don't discount mid major teams like wku, Memphis, bgsu, or Marshall...

    Very nice week again Boom..! Congrats on Clemson.! They look like they are gonna actually stay focused week by week this year! You're right on Bama.. We suck! I don't think Bama should be ranked after barely beating a terrible UT team.. Saban should step down, no use for this nonsense to continue any longer.. I'm appalled ! And embarrassed... With that said, my top 4

    1) Baylor
    2) Bama
    3) LSU
    4) Stanford

    I think this is the top 4 teams in the country.. I think this year is setting up for another Bama / LSU NC game... Ohhhhh wouldn't that be epic, lololololol....

    USC wasn't great, Utah's QB stank.  He is the weak link on that team.  QB Cody Kessler should be benched.  QB Max Browne should get the call.  Get some experience for next year.
