NCAA might actually drop the hammer on Michigan.

asterisk natty is best natty

Unfortunately I witnessed our? beloved Huskies get run over and the media completely forgot about it when it actually mattered.
-
Their current coach deleting 50+ texts without explanation might be the back breaker.
No one won the Natty last year.
-
I fully declared us 2022 Pac12 champions and gave us a CFP appearance thanks to ASU forfeiting their win.
I am less inclined to declare us 2024 champs. Although if Mich is out and FSU is in, I feel good about our outcomes.
Edit: I have not figured where tOSU ends up in this scenario. I guess they probably lose to Bama in the Rose and then we play Bama for Natty?
-
We? were the best team in 2022 and everyone knows it.
Conference champions lose to shitty teams in the Pac 12. It's not a feature, not a bug, but an irreparable design issue that means you need to deprecate the motherfucker entirely. But it does happen.
Utah and Oregon can kiss the ring.

Was talking about this yesterday with Joey if the NCAA bans Michigan midseason the way it looks like they should have a lot of scenarios could have played out. Most likely what I think happens is Ohio State actually beats Michigan if Michigan has nothing to play for. Ohio State is undefeated and #1 seed and plays Alabama in the Rose Bowl and UW is the same with Texas in the Sugar Bowl. Like Bama/Michigan, Bama/Ohio State probably a coin toss and UW gets winner in Houston.
-
Harblaugh panics and takes a job with an inept NFL franchise before the ____ hits the fan. What a surprise. ๐
-
I agree with this. Iโll add that Deboer would still have been finger fucking Bama in Houston and weโd still have played like shit and lost, so anyone trying to claim the natty is a fucking doogtard.
-
Seemed like college football desperately wanted Harbaugh out. I can definitely be convinced but felt like me Ohio State and shit was amping up some stuff that wasn't as nefarious as it's been made out to be.
-
How many coaches trend down for years and then magically, suddenly are locks to the CFP for 3 years in a row like him? Could be argued that he finally got the right mix of players/transfers but it still feels unprecedented in the modern era. Ed O accurately showed what he was with and without Burrow.
-
Dong James? haha
I think Harbaugh benefitted from the covid year in a way UW would have had Petersen not quit. He had a team with a lot of guys who were good but not great NFL prospects and got extra years out of them and more chances to coach them up.
-
im old enough to remember the non-stop media slobbering when harbs showed back up in college. the khaki covered bus, espn jizzing all over itself to talk about him taking his team to europe.
die a hero or live long enough to become the villain or something.
-
lol what? UW had a historically old/experienced team last year.
-
Iโll hang the banner, not because I care, but because I know itโll piss everyone off
college football is dead, might as well make a mockery of its corpse
-
Peterlips would have taken them all the way to a Rose Bowl loss to Penn State.
I liked what I saw out of Fisch in that Alamo Bowl against a 10-2 team.
Peteylips couldn't get it done unless it was the Vegas or Dallas bowl
-
Did you get free wifi time at summer camp?
-
...and?
Every college football team in America had this opportunity after 2020.
The two best developmental staffs made it to the championship.
-
btw this would be our second most bullshit natty after 1960
htfb -
I like the scenario of Michigan winning all the same games but being BAN HAMMERED from post season play. Michigan would still have wanted to win all their games and probably just claim a natty.
That makes a 12-1 tOSU team the B1G champion with a loss to 12-0 Michigan. Now pick 3 of these 4 to fill out the playoff: 13-0 FSU with no QB, 12-1 tOSU which only won its conference cause Mich was banned, 12-1 Bama, 12-1 Texas.
Have to assume 12-1 tOSU is not viewed significantly different enough than 11-1 tOSU actually was, and therefore is ranked behind FSU. Win the Rose vs FSU, play the Texas/Bama winner in Houston. Hmmm.
-
Again, it's why it's bullshit they didn't step up and quickly make Michigan ineligible before the end of the regular season. Now no one is a champion and UW, Alabama and even Georgia and Ohio State borderline have claims. I'm sure there are Florida State doogs who want to claim it too.
-
That's the biggest difference
UW would have had the Rose Bowl rematch with Bama
-
There is nothing bullshit about 1960. It's honestly more legit than 1991.
We should hang 84 too
-
I don't know. They were all in on snitching, but stealing signals to that extent is pretty bad.
I don't want their wins vacated though, even though it kind of makes sense and would "help" us.
-
I'm not looking it all up now, but from my anecdotal memory a good chunk of pre-BCS title claims are sketchy anyways? I think the way the game went down really sours it but yeah with UW in 2023 if Michigan vacates it you'd be able to say they only lost to the one other undefeated team (not counting QB injured FSU) who were cheaters.
-
FSU got ass blasted by Jawja
-
I think they were a different team without their QB and didn't they pretty much boycott and quit that game?
-
If ASU and WSU stole our signs, it's impossible that a school with a lot more resources failed to do so, or at least figure out Grubb's tendencies.
Someone on X, in a seahawk argument of all things (he was clearly not a fan), said that Grubb/DeBoer ran, "high school plays and routes" and that a top 10 draft QB and 3 NFL receivers are the only things that make that even possible.
-
A ton of players sat out
That was the nail in the coffin for CFB. There's no doubt it's completely corrupt. SEC cancer.
-
Here's a problem with the ASU and WSU thing and possible Michigan - they were doing the whole audible thing at the LOS all the time. Especially at home, couldn't they just switch to a lot of that?
With plays and routes I could see the talent they had there allowing them to kind of just play backyard ball more than others but with things that play to Rome which saved their ass on 4th down conversion against USC, got a TD against WSU and should have gotten them a TD or a 4th down conversion against Michigan, I think they had good plays.
