Old school football.

To this point, Cincy’s defense and special teams clearly belong.

The offense has been suspect.

Cincy couldn’t handle Bama’s defensive front.  If the defense is able to rush three and still pressure the QB, there just isn’t a gameplan to counter that.

To be fair, that wasn't a terrible loss by Cincy really. They actually kept it close for quite a bit of time and the defense was fine. Offense just couldn't do much. But they had a great season and showed they belong in the mix going forward as well.

I hope Michigan wins. There's just something about them this season that feels special and I think they got a real shot at beating Alabama while I fully expect Georgia to choke against Bama again if they meet.

Looks like Bama-Georgia III for the national title. Michigan has no answers for Georgia thus far.

Dawgs are dominating, but if Mich can score before the half, it’s a game again.

And of course Michigan is down 20-3 currently lol...

Never mind…. Harbaugh is a good recruiter and a good manager of his players but a vERY poor tactician, much like our Ime.

He is too much of a traditionalist and keeps trying to go with using the run to set up the pass. This Georgia run defense is almost impenetrable, and what he should be doing is passing on first down and using the pass to set up the run.

Don’t expect that from Harbaugh.

Oops. I added an extra I. Good catch.

Alabama - Georgia again it seems

I'm beginning to think they won't expand the playoffs to 8 teams or anything like that because the SEC (at least 1 team from there) always seems to make it to the Championship Game anyways lol. This year there'll be two unless Michigan pulls off a 27-3 miracle comeback

For whatefer reason I think Ohio State would have given a better game than michigan. But they clearly earned being there.

Maybe, but then again this Georgia team got outplayed by Alabama about a month ago in a game where it felt like Alabama dominated. Ohio State looked terrible against Michigan especially the 2nd half of that game. Sometimes the matchups matter.

Oklahoma State might have given a good fight too.

That's why I think an 8-team playoff is needed for more representation. There's a good chance Alabama wins it all but I'd argue it has more to do with the competition. There's no team this year like say, the LSU Tigers of 2019 or Clemson 2018.

Alabama themselves lost to Texas A&M and took 4 OTs to beat Auburn.

Cincy defense gave up 301 rushing yards to what may be the worst rushing Bama team in the Saban era.  That's more than twice the rushing yards Bama was averaging this year.  The total yardage for the game was 482 to 218.  Hard to get too much more dominating than that.
