              I texted that to my co-worker from OK, who is a huge Sooner fan. She texted back: “More like Caffeine-Free Diet Pat Mahomes.”

                  I don’t see how that could be. The top non-p5 conference champion gets in even if they are ranked #25. I’d rather have a them in the top 12, where they take the spot another at-large might take.

                    Bama vs Ohio St. Would be fun again but I hope we get another shot at Clemson. [emoji2959]

                      Maybe play an actual football game first.

                            Yip. They definitely seem to have plenty of speed. It will be an interesting matchup. They love the deep ball. Will it be better to drop 8 into coverage and have lots of safety help over the top, or better to bring 5+ at the QB to disrupt their timing?

                            They'll also need to keep the ball away from Houston's returner(s). Kickoffs through the endzone and punt(s) out of bounds.

                            On offense, the receivers probably won't get as much separation as they have in the first three games. And Houston's d-line had a lot of highlights getting after the QB as well as in run defense.

                            I'll presume that they'll have better ball security than they did against Tulane. On the road. Could be a pretty tough game.

                            • Arkansas got completely screwed by the SEC Officials today. Auburn QB muffed the snap and then tried to spike it to kill the clock, but ended up throwing it backwards, which should have been a backwards pass. Arkansas recovered the ball within 2 seconds of the fumble. Refs on the field called it intentional grounding. Replay clearly showed that it was a backwards pass recovered by Arkansas, but officials confirmed the call on the field. Refs took ten seconds off the clock because of the penalty (didn't give Arkansas the option to decline the time penalty) and Auburn kicked the game winning field goal with 7 seconds remaining.

                              In a statement after the game, SEC officiating says the video clearly showed it was a backwards pass, but because there was no "immediate clear recovery," the call couldn't be reversed:

                              https://twitter.com/SECOfficiating/s...347484675?s=20

                              That's not what the rule says though. The rule says that the call can't be reversed if there is no recovery in the "immediate continuing football action":

                              Sure looked like there was a recovery during the immediate continuing football action to me.

                              • The following BYU opponents won this weekend:

                                Houston
                                Troy

                                The bad news:

                                Texas State lost (to Troy so it's a wash I guess) and WKU lost to Marshall.
