2025 Playoff and Bowl talk

Lane Kiffen is the biggest drama queen in sports - there, I said it.

Biggest douchebag going. I can’t stand him.

Yeah, he's a weasel for sure but anyone would have taken that raise. The real issue is that the NCAA has no rules preventing a rival school from poaching a coach right before a team enters the playoffs for the first time - money owns college sports now and it's a shame.

Isn't Charlie Baker supposed to fix this?

Pretty easy fix..just make rule that you cant even talk to a coach until his season is over. Move the first signing period to January.

Pretty simple low hanging fruit right? Yet Baker is MIA as he's been on a lot of these large scale issues.

The rule is the five highest ranked conference champions, not the P4 champs and one G5 champ.

Duke isn’t ranked in the CFP and has five losses. It is within the realm of possibility that if they win and JMU wins, JMU and the American champ are both higher ranked than Duke.

Dukes did their job. Now we just need Duke to do theirs.

I really hope JMU gets in as it will show what is possible...

Maybe, I’m not sure though. I haven’t delved into what he’s made over his coaching career but he has to be over a 20 million dollar net worth easy already. There’s more to life than money, bailing on your team right before they’re about to play in the playoffs and Ole Miss having one of its greatest seasons ever shows what kind of human he is. Dirtbag.

^They paid him $91M. College football is a business. And UMass is a penny stock company that won't fire their CEO.

Duke did their job. Now we get to see if the committee has any guts or if they are cowards. Put JMU and Tulane in.

I know. Still has to be a classier way to leave a school than how he's doing it. Sounds like he didn't really say anything to the Ole Miss kids on his way out the door and basically threatened his assistants to jump ship from Ole Miss within a day of being notified or be left behind. You can just tell he's rotten dude with how he's handled the whole exit. Besides that LSU will be probably be paying him and Brian Kelly not to coach there in a couple years

They will put JMU in. I wonder though if they put Miami in over ND or Alabama?

It was great to see Indiana win the B1G last night. A historically bad program wins the championship and goes undefeated heading into the CFP. Congratulations to their long suffering fans.

Whoever gets left out of this year, will force the expansion to 20 teams and autobids for all conferences. First round will be the week after championship weekend. Second round week before Christmas. Take Christmas off and the do the last three rounds currently scheduled. The last talk of giving ACC etc. two bids is off the table now after this year.

[jjmc85]

^Much more likely there’s no more auto bids IMO. Or that each power four gets an autobid and rest are at large. Pendulum will swing other direction. Saban and Herbstreet were crying so hard about JMU and Tulane. Hopefully those two do well on the post season to shut up the critics
