Most of the guys on here from before you guys made your migration here do not like CFB, only a few of us do. I hope you brought some CFB fans with you. I love me some CFB talk.

Cool. I'm UNC and Ga. Southern, of course. We've got huskerred (Nebraska) and somebody else, can't remember who, and that's about it. Welcome aboard!

I fail to see any logic behind that "rule". But as a PSU fan, I'm used to the lack of the NCAA's logic.

Why does the NCAA punish future teams for what past teams did?

Why does the NCAA punish future teams for what past teams did? Because they have no way to punish those who committed the infractions directly and view the University as a single entity. In Hollywood, its the equivalent of the bad guy who abducts the stars's wife & children to hold them hostage because they can't reach the one fighting them.

Arizona State vs Duke looks fascinating on paper. The two teams had remarkably similar seasons but ASU received more media love (no idea why). Probably because it's Duke.
I don't know if the Dookies can travel to El Paso and win in a virtual home game for the Sun Devils. Phoenix really isn't THAT far via I-10. I've made the drive a few times. But I really like Duke to cover 7.5 points. That seems high for a fairly even matchup.

Yeah as Grue forgot to mention I'm the sad Michigan fan, but one of the more intelligent college football posters What is your opinion on Nussmeier? Someone who picked Collins as UF's DC said the Nussmeier was likely UF's OC. Don't know why UF is waiting though if that is the case?

As a OC, I think this guy is a bit overrated, but hard to say as he didn't have much of an o-line to work with. But honestly, having a great o-line at bama probably wasn't due to him anyways, and even then they struggled at times to light up the scoreboard, I think Saban's recruiting and the strength/conditioning coaches helped that o-line be so good and made Nussmeier look better than what he really is. I don't think hes horrible, but nothing special in my book.
