Who Will Win The College Football Playoff Championship?

My vote is already in incase y'all are wondering who I am rooting for. 

National Championship winner?

My main man, Mark Schlabach, has already made his predictions for the playoffs and I could not agree with him more. Check out his article. I am actually predicting Clemson to win Oklahoma by about 34-31. Last second field goal for the tigers is what will give them the win in the Orange Bowl. Why I believe Clemson will win? Easy. Deshaun Watson. He was a Heisman finalist and of course, Clemson has been perfect the entire season. Now that does not mean I would over look Baker Mayfield. I am actually more impressed with his stats than I am with Watson. Do you remember the Russell Athletic Bowl last year? That turned out pretty ugly for the Sooners. Maybe they will avenge from their lost from last year. Schlabach has predictions for Oklahoma to win by 34-31. We shall see who is right. 

Every Sparty fan that actually thinks they have a chance of winning against the mighty tide, y'all might want to start praying for a miracle. Alabama has been non-stop winning ever since they lost to Ole Miss. I can say that with that loss, it has made them stronger as a team and also improved their momentum by a lot. Schlabach is predicting Alabama to win Michigan State by 27-17. I have complete faith in the Heisman winner, Derek Henry and Jake Coker to run that offense all the way to the end zone quite a few times in the Cotton Bowl. I am predicting a win for Alabama by 35-13. No other defense in the nation has been able to stop Derek Henry from scoring and I know Michigan State will not be able to do that with their defense. 

Schlabach also concluded in his article that Alabama will win the National College Football Playoff, beating Oklahoma by about 27-21. I agree with the score, except with the win over Clemson. I think Clemson needs a taste of their own medicine. Clemson is a second place team and that is exactly what will happen to them when they play Alabama. Plus, having a Heisman winner win the National Championship is the best outcome for Alabama. 

Holy War in Sin City

Do you think BYU will beat Utah?

The Holy war is now coming to sin city. The Las Vegas Bowl is probably the most exciting bowl to be played besides the playoffs. This is an intense rivalry game, it cannot get any better than that! Although, will this be the year that the cougars FINALLY show Utah who is boss? Probably not, here is why..

BYU's offense + Utah's defense = 

Those emoji's are referring to the BYU fan if you were wondering...

If you look at my past post "Utah Survives an Upset from California," I state that Utah's defense is actually quite decent. That is probably the nicest thing I will ever say about Utah, but I am not kidding, I really said it, "I will give Utah credit for one thing, their defense is actually pretty good. I was really surprised how well they pressured the offense."

Another threat to BYU is, of course the one and only, Devonate Brooker. He is no where near as awesome as Derek Henry, but he has the potential. He has about 268 carries, 1261 yards, and 11 touchdowns. I still have that poll up for who should be considered for Heisman and apparently everybody is favoring Brooker, so we shall see the outcome. 

I will give credit to BYU for one thing, Tanner Magnum is ten times a better quarterback than Travis Wilson. Magnum's stats do show what he is capable of. Magnum can do well under pressure, Wilson not so much. 

I am also sure everybody knows that Bronco Mendenhall is leaving (hallelujah), so who do you think will be BYU's head coach? I have some pretty good ideas. I think if BYU wins Utah in the Las Vegas bowl, they will probably try to convince Kyle Whittingham to come back to his alma mater, however, the pay cut would be a tough sell.  The other option BYU has for a coach, which actually surprised me is Darrell Bevell. Those of you who need a refresher, he is the Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator. If you need to be deeply soaked, he led the team to the Super bowl XLVIII win. Pretty cool, right? Maybe he can help BYU get some decent wins. 

Alright, the time has come, Who do you think will win? ESPN is already saying Utah is favored to win by 59.6%. Do you agree? 

Ohio State 2016 Schedule

If you guys haven't heard yet, Ohio State's wide receiver Michael Thomas has pointed out that Alabama's schedule is weak. Due to Thomas's lack of accuracy in the College Football Rankings, Alabama has played a total of three teams that are still currently ranked, while Ohio State has played two teams that are currently ranked (Michigan State and Michigan...really?). So I thought I would share some great news to Michael Thomas that I have managed to get the 2016 schedule for Ohio State and it looks like it will get a little bit more tougher for them. Take a look. 

Rankings Explained

Drum roll please....

Ohio State finally lost!! It is about time the Buckeyes true colors are shown. I have never been a huge fan of the Big Ten before and I probably never will. Just because the team has had a perfect season, does not mean that they are number one in the nation. If any of you saw the Michigan State vs. Ohio State game, you probably were not that impressed. I honestly got tired of watching because both teams struggled offensively. In my opinion, neither team should be ranked. However, the satisfaction of Ohio State losing their winning streak is enough for me.

Below are the official College Football Rankings. The one to the left are the rankings from November 15. The one to the right are the rankings as of November 22.










Some of these rankings actually do not make sense to me. So I thought I would give my reason for these rankings.

I think I did a pretty good job explaining my rankings. I will probably end up doing one for the NFL, but that is for later in the season. This week of college football will be the true test, why? Because its rivalry week. You can always expect the unexpected with rivalries. Two years ago Alabama was all set to go to the championship until Auburn return a field goal kick all the way to the end zone. I was extremely depressed and shocked by that play. It will probably be one of the best plays ever remembered by the SEC. 

I would like to see what everybody's favorite part of my "Rankings Explained" is. Also if you could throw in some comments on what you would recommend or even a compliment of my hilarious personality. 

Favorite part of the rankings explained

May the Odds be in Michigan States Favor

For the college football rankings to actually make sense, Michigan State needs to get the win. Honestly, in my opinion, Ohio State is way overrated. According to ESPN's poll, OSU is favored to win by 79%. Well that does not really surprise me. I do believe this will be a close game. To the right is a funny picture of the college football rankings. Prepare to laugh. This is a short post, I apologize. Vote on the poll, enjoy the game tomorrow!

Who will win?

LSU Taken Down by the Mighty Tide

I need to get this off my chest, I WAS RIGHT. To everyone that told me Alabama would lose to LSU, that Derek Henry is not good enough for Heisman, and that Alabama is overrated. I was right that Alabama would win, LSU, I was right that Derek Henry is number one for Heisman, and I was right that Alabama should be ranked number one in the nation. I just had to let that pride out because I always get told that I am wrong. Well, how do you like them apples y'all?

Derek Henry had a total of 210 YARDS! That man is a beast machine. If you were not impressed with his rushing yards, then you may need to re-watch the game. After this game, Henry will be all that they talk about. Leonard Fournette will probably not be in the conversation for Heisman anymore. Fournette was only able to get 31 yards and he carried the ball 19 times. Clearly, the odds were not in his favor.

I am passionate about sports. I definitely do not like to be told that I am wrong. Although, when I am proven wrong, I find other ways to make it sound like I am right. This was a really good game and I feel bad for the people that live with me and below me because I was screaming and jumping all over the place. More good football games are coming up and I cannot wait to make more predictions. Roll Tide!

Alabama to Break LSU's Winning Streak

I am predicting a very close game between Alabama and LSU. I believe the score will be 31-28 with an Alabama win. This will not be an easy game for Alabama. Actually, it will be their most difficult game of the season so far. Below I have a poll set up. I want everyone to give their honest opinion to which team they think will win. Do not vote for LSU just to make me mad, because it will. However, if you do vote for LSU, there better be a legitimate reason for it.

Who will win?

Alright, lets talk about Heisman first. I am going to start with some statistics. As always, better team first. Derek Henry has made a total of 180 attempts, 1044 yards, and 14 touchdowns this season. Overall in his career, he has made a total of 388 attempts, 2416 yards, and 28 touchdowns. Impressive right? Now for Leonard Fournette. Fournette has made a total of 176 attempts, 1352 yards, and 15 touchdowns this season. Overall in his career, he has a made a total of 363 attempts, 2386 yards, and 25 touchdowns. Lets just all admit something right now, Fournette is on fire this season. However, Henry should not be kept out of the conversation. Henry is a great candidate for Heisman and he definitely deserves it. 

We all know how Alabama has been playing offensively this season. It terrifies me, actually. Communication was a huge problem for Alabama in the first few games of the season. Their game plan has changed a lot in the past few games, but they still hit a few bumps in the road. What Alabama needs to do is let Derek Henry run his magic. The offense needs to give him some space so that he can run that ball all the way to end zone. Alabama's defense also has to be on high alert. LSU's offense is very similar to Alabama. Both teams can run the ball well and also defend well. This will be an interesting game. 

Again, this is going to be a very close game. So close that I will probably not stay sane throughout the whole game. Both of these teams have a lot of the same things in common that I can't even decide their weaknesses. Get ready for the tide to roll everybody.
