This season is rapidly going off the rails and it would probably be easier to name which games aren't cancelled this week.

And Ohio State/Michigan is about to be canceled. Big Ten and/or the NCAA is gonna have to finagle something to get OSU eligible for the playoff.

I woke up and checked the Badgers score just now. I tried to wrap my head around why the Badgers stink, but then I realized part of it was we didn't have 3 JV games to pump up the W's and make our normal 3-4 losses not seem as bad.

It's a shame they forgot to find a RB for the first time in years. The 330 pound white farm boys seem to be in play place on the line.

Fickell's horrible clock management costs Cincinnati the upset over Georgia. Oh well.

Tom Herman is out at Texas and it appears that Steve Sarkisian is coming in.

Whelp, it's official. Sark is the next coach at UT. Can't wait to see him absolutely blitzed on 6th Street.

It was impressive how Alabama just thoroughly dominated the entire season, as flawed with COVID as it was.

As far as I know, they didn't have any starters miss time for Covid reasons.

I meant more for the rest of the CFB landscape in terms of teams missing games, players not playing or opting out, etc. so it's hard to do an Apples to Apples "Alabama Title Team" vs. another from years ago.

Saban seems to love rehabbing guys as OC (Kiffin, Sarkisian)

Sources tell FootballScoop that Saban is on the verge of hiring former Penn State and Houston Texans head coach Bill O’Brien as leader of Alabama’s offense, barring any unexpected final developments such as a current NFL head coaching or offensive coordinator vacancy being offered to O’Brien.
