Committee chair Hunter Yurachek says Notre Dame and Miami were compared in the same pool this week.

"The committee still feels Notre Dame is a complete team and has been consistent throughout the season."

Did credit Miami for playing better and making it closer.

Perfect single color piechart.
What are the odds that these ICE folks who can’t risk unmasking now were complaining endlessly about having to wear a mask during the peak of COVID?

Suddenly considering Temple on the moneyline on Friday.
Note: The Owls are 19.5-point underdogs at North Texas.
SOURCE: Oklahoma State is targeting North Texas head coach Eric Morris to be its next head coach, @theathletic.com has learned.

North Texas is 10-1 this year, and Morris would finish the rest of the season with the Mean Green, including a potential conference title and CFP bid.

Virginia is a 9.5-point favorite this weekend vs Virginia Tech.
SMU is a 13.5-point favorite at Cal.
If both win, they will meet for the ACC title game.

Which is why, folks, we are looking at SMU making the Playoff two years in a row.

My nephew is a student at UMass and was told it’s earlier so students would attend before leaving for the holiday. He is leaving right after class today.

Anybody know why Bowling Green at UMass is at 4:30 ET on Tuesday?
On ESPNU

I am all for it, a bowl season appetizer (that'll taste like 0-11 UMass football ...).
Just odd.

Big moment in sumo, as Ukrainian refugee Aonishiki (born Danylo Yavhusishyn), won the November tournament at age 21, only his 5th tourney at the top level, defeating yokozuna Hoshoryu in a playoff after both tied for 1st after 15 days.🇺🇦🏆

We all hope Missouri beats Arkansas by two points this week, right?
The Chicago Bears are 8-3 with a point differential of -3.

Arkansas is 2-9 with a point differential of +3.

If you took those underdog moneylines and did not take into consideration the sportsbook's hold, the implied chance of at least one upset in those four games is ... 109.8%.
Which is just to say, I am telling you there is a chance.

Four chances next weekend for an upset to push Notre Dame into hosting a first-round Playoff game.
Which one gets the job done? Does any?

All the below is still true, except sub in SMU for Georgia Tech and Tulane for James Madison.

Also, the Vikings should draft a second- or third-round quarterback. I don't know, someone like Carson Beck or Garrett Nussmeier (okay, those are funny) orrrrr honestly Jalon Daniels?
My college football hot taek today in the hour when all college football thoughts get lost: The Nos. 5 & 6 seeds are gonna be wildly important again this year.
— Host a Playoff game
— vs. Georgia Tech or North Texas or Virginia or James Madison
— Dodge Ohio State until the semis, if not the title.
