Pre-season CFB Bowl Projection

[WVex-pat in GA]

Athlon Sports - Liberty Bowl - Memphis, TN - WVU (6-6) vs. Memphis (SEC could not fill all bowl spots)

Also Conference predictions in links.

I don’t want to play a school in their own stadium for a bowl game.

Although the advantage here would be you could buy tickets at the Liberty Bowl for $10 and under. That place never sells out.

Btw. Pickem is less than 2 months away!
Oh it’s like Christmas for children

 

[RichardCranium1]

Much rather go to the Cheez It Bowl.

 

[WVUALLEN]

So basically no Big 12 team in the playoffs. Does this mean the SEC gets 2 teams in or does Big 10 get two teams in with the ACC Clemson?

Miami could surprise

 

[locustwv]

Miami could surprise

Miami is gonna suck!!

 

[WVUALLEN]

Clemson will dominate a very weak ACC once again.

 

[3xWVUenginEER]

B1G Conference is with Fox now so probably not in the playoffs. Espn has to protect their own haha


Honestly the B1G is a mystery. Who knows what they have. No Urb. Still got the Khakis but who needs a 8-9 win team that can’t beat their rivals.

 

[sg44gold]

Bama and Clemson are IN until they’re not.

It is going to take a LOT to knock them out.

If Hurts shows up for Oklahoma they are IN based on his reputation and TV ratings for possible matchups.

 

[Pitt4Life34]

Miami is gonna suck!!

Ok

 

[TownesVanZandt]

Miami gets early commitments from all of South Florida and most decommit.

They had a S committed that is going to be a star. One of the best Safties I have seen. He already decommitted for their 2021 class.
If Miami has a big year they can make some noise. Mark Richt put them in a great position and truthfully won't get his credit if Miami returns.

But....
Miami starts out with Florida.
Manny Diaz's Defenses usually have issues with power spread teams.
Mullen going to look to run over them.

They could be a 9-3 team at best and if they can keep their commitments in 2020, 2021 and 2022 could make some noise.

But they are not a CFP team this year. No where close. Florida St has more upside in 2019 because of Cam Akers.

Hear that same bullshit every year...but in the end we don't do so well head to head and on the national scene ACC has done better our dwarf 10 team conference lol.

Don’t necessarily disagree with you but I’m just not sold on the FSU coach.

Hurt sucks.

Didn’t you hear? ACC wins Natties and Big p12 doesn’t. Hey do you think this will finally be the year that the Big12 wins a playoff game haha?

 

[TownesVanZandt]

People don't watch ACC football.

They had one game with a decent rating
Syracuse vs Clemson
Why it had a decent rating was the suspense of Clemson losing

For the most part a conference survives or dies based on ratings.
The ACC is eating itself. Problem with ESPN. They love the it team but truthfully this marketing strategy doesn't work.

ACC needs Florida State to return and others to bring eyeballs to the television.

Winning these NC isn't helping the conference and is hurting it.
Clemson beating teams 59-0 doesn't bring eyeballs to the TV.

Oklahoma beating Oklahoma St by one point does.
Same with Oklahoma/WV

 

[WVUALLEN]

Or Oklahoma/Texas, Texas/WVU, TCU/WVU

ACC is nationally respected. Big12 not so much. Deal with it Texass.

 

[TownesVanZandt]

Is it.

Why would a Pitt fan have to hide behind a conference.
Plus one like the ACC.

The conference doesn't bring in eyeballs. People don't watch ACC football. Never have and never will.
Clemson is an exception to the rule but even Clemson suffered through years of being in the ACC.

The football viewing public was determined in the 1960's.
Clemson or any school in the ACC wasn't noticed.
ACC basketball was.

But as a football conference it wasn't. The schools they brought in aren't helping. They are just more mouths to feed.

 

[Pitt4Life34]

F Michigan and the Big Ten!!! College football and college hoops is all ACC, Big Ten and SEC. It’s so annoying that we are nothing burgers. Sucks!

 

[TownesVanZandt]

Has life beat you down that much Greggy.

Schools are more important than conferences.
Pitt would be dogshit no matter what conference they are in.
WVU on the otherhand has a lot of fight and is trying to create their place in the Big 12.

Michigan would take 99% of Division 1 schools coaches including Pitt.
Michigan is an Alpha. Would be an Alpha no matter the conference.

WVU is trying to be that school. Guess Pitt on the otherhand is trying to hide behind the ACC.
The ACC.....
Is not the SEC or B1G no matter how you attempt to spin it.

Not in success
Not financially
Not historically

I get it! Pitt sucks haha
You’re a racist that should change your Avatars
See you in the next thread

 

[TownesVanZandt]

I thought Pitt fans would have more self respect

You would run your own name down to hurt WVU.
You are obsessed with WVU. Only seen a few fanbases that would do that.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Uh Texas. You could say that about yourself. You are obsessed with WVU as well.

Pitt sucks. Tell them so at every opportunity.

 

[TownesVanZandt]

No need to run down WV like some.

Posters like GregJacobs have one purpose and that is troll West Virginia and their fans.
He doesn't hide his agenda either.

Find it interesting but he and the Marshall fans want to trash the Big 12.

Marshall fans want nothing more than WV to fall down to their level.
They actually think it is going to happen. Pretty sad.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Well WVU will fall to 4-8 this year. Marshall fans can party for 1 year. Then....they will disappear after that.
