Pick your "wildcard" playoff team
« on: August 30, 2022, 04:02:27 PM »
Just for fun.  It's no fun to pick Alabama, Georgia or OSU to be there.  It's only barely fun to pick Clemson/Oklahoma, but Clemson was not great last year, and Oklahoma lost a lot, so I'll allow it

I'm guessing Clemson will get sorted out and they have a half decent schedule.  But it's a guess obviously, they could be 10-3 again.

I went with Clemson but it doesn't feel like much of a wildcard.

I think they'll bounce back at least somewhat and with their schedule 13-0 is definitely achievable.

Went with Michigan.  Although it’s not that “wild” of a pick. 

They are loaded.   They have 3 tin cans for their pre season to get lots of experience and an easy schedule. 

I fully expect them to roll into Columbus undefeated and ranked in the top 3.   All they have to do is win that game.  Not at all hard to imagine.

I went with Michigan but I'm a homer lol. 

IF JJ wins the job and he's really THAT DUDE....Michigan could be an explosive ass offense bc they'll have a really good OL and playmakers everywhere. Ronnie Bell, Erik All, Blake Corum, Donovan Edwards, and Andrel Anthony could all be really good this year- especially if they have the type of QB who can make them better.

Big Ten West Champ


Would be terrific but I put it at like 4% chance.  I think 7-2 takes the west over at least two 6-3's in what will be a very entertaining race including a couple underdog wins again for IL who will bowl.  3 or 4 at 6-3 and it all coming to tiebreakers wouldn't be too surprising either.  

Purdue has the most palatable schedule amongst the presumed contenders.  They are Minn are my picks on paper to win it due to schedule vs what Wisc and Iowa have.

Which games are shaping up to be "play in" games, like Notre Dame-Cincinnati last year?
