Isn’t Notre Dame like 0-13 in big bowls since 1989? I simply do not care about them at this point. Penn St is getting there for me but at least they can win bowls. It’s just hard for me to get excited for one of their games when I know what’s gonna happen.
You don’t get an opinion with that PFP 🍀
I HATE these conference conversations. ASU (Big 12) vs MSU (SEC) doesn't tell me anything about the SEC or Big 12 as a whole, just that one of those teams was better that day.
How "good or bad" you lose will be important.
Giving my Wvu guys some love! Let's goooo Mountaineer's!!!!
Good content need more visuals
Great analysis 😊😊😊
I think he forgot that Tennessee and NCSU are playing this year…..
I was thinking the same thing. Strange that he chose UF/UM as a huge game
@@1994nyranger bigger brands
Nc state and Tennessee will be important
Definitely has to be more important than Miami v Florida and WVU v PSU
This last year was the first year in 10 years the sec won the most bowl games
That’s simply not true. They did it 3 out of the last 10, which is the most. If you look at total non con records the sec is much more dominant
@@Bravesfan12345and that my man is the reason so many SEC teams are ranked. The way they play in the bowl games. They rarely lose the significant games
I don’t even know why Greg is asking the question about non-conference games. He already knows the answer to the question.
For some programs it’s a matter of pride, for others, not so much.
Good luck with these games
Arkansas vs oklahoma state unrated game. Will be a great game to watch
Carson beck is our biggest question this season... His hype got to his head, he definitely under performed to alot of UGA fan standards!
😂😂😂😂😂
Did you watch a snap of Georgia last year? You couldn’t ask for more out of a first year starter.
@@Bravesfan12345 with all his hype I would have assumed an easy title run, stetson Bennett got dogged on for both his title runs this clown comes on year 1 and is looked at as a top 10 QB in the game, gtfoh with that ESPN bias bs, he had all the talent in the world if beck was what they said he was we would have won the sec and national title games
@@DevinHoyt17 he was objectively a top 5 qb. He played pretty good against bama. He’s not the reason Georgia lost that game
@@Bravesfan12345He did have an unforced error on our own ten yard line that resulted in three points for Alabama.
Non-conference games/strength of those games lost meaning when FSU went undefeated, beat LSU and Florida (those "powerhouse" SEC teams) and then it meant nothing in the end. Additionally, Alabama played a non-conference game, lost that game, and got in. So...
I think you are forgetting FSU's QB was out and the backup they had...honestly just sucked
@@cfb1743don’t tell him that
@@cfb1743 you’re right, I forgot football is a sport based on an individual rather than a team.
Lmaoo not at all fsu didn’t have their qb and got obliterated by Georgia in a bowl game 💀
Florida State didn't go to CFP playoffs last year because of ESPN's rankings!
Nebraska can’t show the playbook against Texas El Paso. Colorado opponent the following week . Dylan to pass according to protection. If possible take Dylan out in the third quarter if score dictates it. Snaps to HH and DK. Second team . Run it .
Nebraska isn't as good in Big 10 play! they lose to higher rank teams like Michigan and Ohio State
@@ChiragSonne Who doesn’t lose to those B10 powerhouses . You must be competitive in order to find out what it takes to beat them . The way the playoffs are structured now Michigan could probably meet Ohio ST two maybe three times a year.
@@jesusrivera743 yeah I know!
He gettin the narrative ready they gon try to flood the playoff bracket with SEC teams
0:08 Georgia Hate starting out the video. I FOUND A DOUBTER. Yes I want Alabama lvl respect and I'm not seeing it.
It'll take a decade. Just saying.
Alabama level respect is simply other fanbases shouting "tHeY pAiD tHe reFs! tHeY gET aLL tHe caLLs!"
In my humble opinion the sec has more talent but they don't always perform the best on Saturdays. I'm not convinced
Not convinced about what? 80% of championship this century. Dominant non con record in the past 10 years. 14-4 in the playoffs.
Reading the comments on these college football shows highlights the insecurity and salt of ACC and Big12 fans
I think Georgia and Alabama will have toughest schedule in College Football with SEC new teams Oklahoma and Texas!
Go look up Florida Schedule 😂😂😂😂 them boys got it bad
I know its not a non con game but.Mizzu doesn't play anyone All season. Except they play alabama. If they win that they could be undefeated. Georgia has to play at bama At ole miss and at texas. Brutal.
not even close. Florida Oklahoma and Mississippi State have much harder schedules
Florida
Florida has the toughest schedule in the SEC and I'm a Bama fan.
☘️☘️☘️
Bama play Wisconsin week 2 not week 3
The ACC was better than the SEC last year. Don’t believe me? The ACC went 7-5 against the SEC. That’s a large sample size.
and now check who beat who. Vanderbilt Florida and South Carolina were garbage last year.
@@GoatedAtNFS Thanks for proving my point. Don’t forget Kentucky.
@@JWCFBKentucky beat the second best team in the acc😂😂 the acc is a g5 conference. SC, Florida, Vandy, Kentucky, and A&M were the teams the all mighty acc beat. All of those teams had 5+ losses in sec play. The sec conversely beat Louisville, GT, FSU. 3 of the top 4 teams in acc play
That’s funny. Your conference champ lost by 70 to sec runner up
@@TheAndersonjc67to be fair, they were missing 29 from their 2 deep. Not saying they would have won but it did play a role in the score.
It doesn’t matter what anyone does , ESPN will load the top 12 with less deserving SEC teams … We seen it last year and FSU smoked LSU and their heisman winner .
You really think ESPN has anything to do with the playoff selection? Lol
Alabama beat LSU also... let me ask you this? Who did FSU play in the ACC championship game? How did they perform? Who did Alabama play in the SEC championship game? How did they perform?
@@simplerick256 YES 💯 ESPN DICTATES WHO GOES WHERE ( we just lived it ) & FSU didn’t have any near losses even with a 3rd string Qb - Bama needed a BS miracle to be Auburn on 4th and 31 ( still don’t know why they rushed two ) LSU’s Qb got put out of that game or LSU would have won that & The UGA / Bama game was Full of controversial calls that went Bama’s way . Ga shoulda been #3 and FSU should have been 4 ( They had a month to prepare for that game and I Guarantee it would have been better that Bama or Texas .. Just watch , they’ll mess this year up two
@@simplerick256Alabama lost fsu didn’t lose irrelevant statement unfortunately
@@Dre384 what world do you live in
I'm looking forward to Oklahoma St. getting beat by South Dakota State August 31st. Let's Go Rabbits!!!
Yea, nobody wants to open with any Dakota school lol
@@MrBlpete that team from fargo isn't any good. Ears up horns down buck the fison.
@@yourenotforgotten5639 lol I'm a Nebraska fan so I don't care for any Dakota school but I know that you guys are capable of upsetting bigger programs when you play them
@@MrBlpete SDSU has Nebraska coming up I think in 2028 and '30. They should be able to compete more of a full game than what the Jacks did in 2013 against the Huskers. We just didn't have the depth to go 4 quarters against you guys then.
@@yourenotforgotten5639 dang, I thought Coach Rhule told our AD he didn't want any Dakota schools on the schedule haha. I guess we'll see but I don't think you guys will be able to keep up with the level of athletes we have or our depth. At all
Let's Go Mountaineers 💛 💙 beat PSU.
Where is Bama vs Georgia week 4?
Non con..
@@ammoniawilder4451You know they can't read
There would be zero reason for any SEC team to schedule anyone of note if they move to 9 conference games. That schedule is brutal enough
They really only play 4 quality teams.
My toughest Non-Confrence games.
10.🐯Clemson vs App State 🤠
9.🐘 Alabama vs Wisconsin 🦡
8. 🐅LSU vs UCLA🐻
7. 🦬Colorado vs North Dakota State🐂
6.✌️ Texas A&M vs Notre Dame ☘️
5. 🏹Florida State vs Memphis 🐯
4. 🦆Oregon vs Oregon State 🦫
3.🐘Alabama vs USF🦬
2. 🐯LSU vs USC⚔️
1. 🐮Texas vs Michigan💛💙🤍
Honerable mentions 🐅Clemson vs Georgia 🐕
Miami vs Florida not on this list already makes your list a complete joke! But you’ll have Clemson vs App St and Colorado vs North Dakota State? lol
App State is a great team and you saw what they did to North Carolina and James Madison. Florida v Miami those two coming off a garbage season last year. Florida was 5-7 and Miami took a knee against Georgia Tech.
@@EliasReedX16 Do you remember App State shocked Michigan Wolverines in 2007 pre season match up! It was unbelivable major upset of the 2000s!
@@ChiragSonne I wasn't alive when App State upseted Michigan. I'm 16
@@ChiragSonne But you're right that App State has been a very tough team in the SBC. They nearly upset North Carolina and upset Michigan, they might do it to Clemson.
THE NUMBER ONE NON-CONFERENCE GAME IS FLORIDA STATE AT NOTRE DAME HANDS DOWN NO QUESTIONS ASKED THAT IS A NO BRAINER
🤣
@@32Jalopy I WISH WE PLAYED YOU GUYS THIS YEAR I WILL TELL YOU WHAT WE WILL DO YOU GUYS A FAVOR AND BEAT TEXAS A & M FOR YOU THE FIRST WEEK OF THE SEASON
Notre Dame is gonna kill FSU
The fact that West Virginia is seen as such a “good matchup” this year is so depressing as a psu fan 😭 fire the entire department for real it’s already 8 years too late
I'm a Sooner fan
No one cares Robert. Hook em🤘🏽🖕🏾
Swine network.
First
Good Lord, the idiot SEC and Bama haters . So jealous of success. I was raised in a time When success was to be admired . RTR!!! We will be up there in the end !
The committee has never picked the 2 best teams they've always picked the teams they could make the most money off of, theres no money in sending a 11-0 Boise state to the BCS championship game when you have a 10-2 sec champion loser
Nailed it and this is controlled by ESPN. Notice how ESPN never mentions BSU now that they don’t have them in their TV deal? Yeah, they focus on the teams ESPN has playing on their channels and shits all over any g5 team not on an ESPN contract. I’m going out there and saying BOISE state will be 4-0 all time against Oregon come week 2 and they will disrupt the narrative
@@calebblaser1055 negative, Dan lanning ain't losing to Boise state. I was talking about the Boise state of 2010 or so when they went undefeated but 2 sec teams made the BCS championship game
@@DevinHoyt17would Alabama not have made more money than tcu? What reason would a committee have to put more popular teams in? That makes no sense. Why would the nc state ad intentionally lose money to put bama over fsu?
@@calebblaser1055you’re not some braniac. This isn’t some ultra conspiracy. Of course fox will talk more about teams they have under contract. ESPN will do the same. That has nothing to do with the committee dummy
@@Bravesfan12345 FSU wasn't gonna play any of there players I'm sure had something to do with that, but no tcu deserved there spot they were a conference champ who was fully healthy and defeated Texas and Michigan, bama lost there big games, also tcu is not a group of 5 team there a power 5 team so they make closer to sec money then WAC money
Depends on the score Greg. How the game looks. Yeah i think 9 games would be good with 16 teams. I remember Alabama vs Ole Miss being counted as an out of conference game, late 70's early 80's.
Bc there a 12 team playoff tha idea tha games don’t have meanings is so dumb and makes no sense fr
Really not good at selling some quality games. Storylines for games… not your strong suit
Hey Greg, none of these games matter just ask FSU last year….smh
It mattered until that Louisville game on national television...the entire world was a witness... Georgia was just confirmation
@@stoopstified7376 nope every game is meaningless. Football as ESPN and the Committee showed is the ultimate “i” sport
FSU fans are a bunch of sissys always crying and whinin bout somethin. Hookem🤘🏽🖕🏾
Logics missed this one
Tired of bama and Georgia. Hope both have bad seasons
You’re gone be upset by that one then brother
Looking like a bama vs georgia national championship game kinda year
@@iAmCLPN idk bout that. But they’ll both have good years. Too much parity this year. 12 team playoff will make it interesting. Ohio State looks pretty good and then there will always be that surprise good team.
@consciousm1nd ohio has been great just lackluster coaching stopped picking them in big games till Mr day can show he can lead maybe the best roster to beat a team better than pen state. No hate for ohio though that's maybe the most talented roster currently
@@iAmCLPN the 12 team play off is going to have at large bids. No way a 10-2 at the worst OSU misses the play off. I feel that way about Penn state. They’ve lived off of being #3 in the Big ten east. That’s not happening anymore. Franklin better learn to win a big game. OSU just can’t get over Michigan lately. They came one kick away from winning a championship (I’m a UGA fan so don’t get me wrong I’m more than happy about it). OSU deserves all the respect in my eyes. Incredibly talented team that just hasn’t beaten a BETTER Michigan team the last few years. I think Michigan was really good the last few years (obviously winning last years natty helps too). I mean hey they made the CFP lost to UGA (tough) and lost to TCU (inexcusable you gotta win that). But they’ve been in that top 4 convo the last 4-5 years. So no shame in losing against them if you’re OSU.
