    Look at LSU 3 to 15? OSU's loss screwed up the final 4 contest it looked like ALA, OSU, ND and one other.

    And I like ND, #1 baby! God's team.  😆

  • Well the OHIO STATE stumble certainly shook up the Final Four race......

    Oct 25, 2018 - Heather Dinich ESPN writer 

    LSU and Alabama can wait.

    Don't look past Week 9 -- not when there are 20 other ranked teams playing, and 18 of them are either facing a ranked opponent or are away from home.

    Three of the top five teams in the AP Top 25 -- No. 1 Alabama, No. 4 LSU and No. 5 Michigan -- are off this week. But the rest of the schedule features several games with the potential to derail everything you thought you knew about how the first College Football Playoff ranking of the season would look on Tuesday.

    "You look around the country every week and see scores that maybe surprise you, catch you off guard," said Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz, whose Hawkeyes have an opportunity to earn a statement win at Penn State on Saturday. "I think it's the nature of college football. Biggest part of the challenge, not only matching up for your opponent, but also being focused, making sure you're spending the time you have to spend, not getting distracted on things that have nothing to do with the ballgame."

    Things like ... who might be the best one-loss team in the country?

    No. 7 Georgia, which had a bye last week to recover from its loss to LSU, is trying to regain focus for a playoff elimination game against No. 9 Florida in Jacksonville. The winner will take the lead in the SEC East, while the loser fades from the national stage with a second loss.

    1. FLA/GEO in JAX   2. No. 18 Iowa at No. 17 Penn State (3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN) 3. No. 6 Texas at Oklahoma State (8 p.m. ET, ABC)  4. No. 2 Clemson at Florida State (noon ET, ABC)  5. Navy vs. No. 3 Notre Dame (at San Diego, California)

  • Well the 2018 final 4 matchup was:

    1. ALA vs 4. TBA   and 2. OSU vs 3. ND

    Now we're looking at the best 1 loss teams out there and when the conference championships are over that list will be longer.
