CFB Playoffs

It's just a torn ACL for Brooks. With today's medical advancements guys are coming back 8 months after their injury. There's even word that some teams are still just as high on him for the draft even after the injury.
I've watched Michigan play and each time I come away thinking they are nothing special. The thing they do best is run the ball. The thing we do best on defense is stop the run. I would actually prefer that matchup over Georgia. But even Georgia to me looks nothing like they have the last 2 years. They are still a good football team but I truly think we could beat any of those teams on a good day.
And how about Michael Pennix he's had an an ACL and both knees and now he's the favorite for the the Heisman.
Rb is not the same as QB. There's far more opportunities for punishment at RB. Plus, the awkward cut angles.
There's truly no way to know until the surgeon gets in there. There are ACL tears that can't be fixed. They can be mended, the patient can be made to walk again and lead a normal life-- but not fixed to be an elite athlete.
We won't know until 8-10 months from now for sure.
I know this may sound knit-picky hoss-- but check it out--
5.2 vs 5.9 yards per carry is a difference of .7 ypc. That doesn't seem like a lot. But in a 300 carry season, it's a difference of 210 yards. That 210 yards COULD be the difference between 1st round and 3rd round. Between All-Pro and also ran.
Well Michigan has the luxury we had last year with Bijan and Johnson so that could be another reason
Nice dream, lol.
Here's a more possible scenario to keep the SEC out of the playoffs. Let's say FSU, Washington, and Mich/OhioSt winner run the table and finish 13-0. Those three teams are in. We do the same, and Bama beats Georgia.
Then you have UT/Bama/Georgia all at 12-1 in contention for that 4th spot. I would think we get the nod, but wouldn't bet on it.
Well, if this isn’t motivation enough to get to the Big XII conference championship, I don’t know what is!!

Big 12 title game MVP gets WWE belt in new deal
A new partnership around the Big 12 championship game will include blended Big 12-WWE logos on the field at AT&T Stadium, a new merchandise line and WWE superstars presenting the most outstanding player belt to the game's top player.
I know this board isn't high on Yormark due to the TTech comments, but -- this guy is wall to wall sales, which is exactly what the Big 12 will need to remain relevant. Not saying this stunt is going to change the world but you have to admire the effort. We've got Nelly performing at halftime, WWE guys showing up. Who knows what else he will pull out.Well, if this isn’t motivation enough to get to the Big XII conference championship, I don’t know what is!!

Not meaning to offend anyone but I am not a Yormark fan. He is a promoter, I hope the big 12 doesn't go weird but it may.
I did some math last night, since I never sleep-- When the season started, Yormark had it in for both Texas and OU. No way in hell he wanted those two teams up at the top of the conference. If someone else from the pack could rise up and run the table, Yorkmark would have cleared a path for them. But nobody did. Now that BlowU has fallen flat, Yormark knows the only REAL payday will come from Texas (who he dislikes) getting into the CFP. Payday for the Big 12. It's not Yormark's ideal situation, but he'll take the $$$$ and swallow the Texas pill.
I expect to see some favorable calls for once, this weekend.
I don't know that we didn't get some favorable no calls last weekend. I'm not saying we got all the calls we should have.....but there were a couple calls later in the game that could, and have been, going against us not get called.......
