2018 NCAAF Dollaz

[Dollaz]

First!

How about that one!

This has been the strangest year I have ever seen.

I have no idea how they came back from 28-0 with that defense but the team doesnt quit and that is fun to watch.

you have the most Schizo team in the nation, Dollaz

Just a quicker writeup than normal. To start, ODU -6.5 vs. Liberty. Liberty is going to be fired up, but I think the talent gap is too much. ODU should be able to run all over them and the DL should dominate Liberty's OL. ODU's season is high risk with an 18 year old QB, but they have a lot of experience. Lots of talent at RB, experienced WR/OL. They have on e of the better P5 DLs that goes 8-10 deep without much dropoff. Defense should be much improved.

Other picks:
UCLA o5.5
ODU o5.5
UL Monroe +1200 to win Sunbelt
Georgia +225 to win SEC
Texas +250 to win B12
Utah +1500 to win P12
Stanford +450 to win P12
ODU +4000 to win CUSA
LT +1000 to win CUSA
SD State +250 to win MWC
Miami )OH) +600 to win MAC
Miami +300 to win ACC
Temple+2500 to win AAC
Navy +800 to win AAC

Utah o7.5 wins
UTSA u5 wins
Tennessee u5.5 wins
LT o7 wins
Georgia Southern o5.5 wins (-210)
Colorado State o5.5 wins
Charlotte u3.5 wins
BC o6.5 wins
Auburn o9 wins
Arkansas o5.5 wins

Anyone know the tiebreakers here? In particular:

San Diego State
Texas
Stanford
Utah
UL Monroe?

San Diego State

Stanford

UL Monroe?

I believe Texas has two straight forward scenarios:
A. Texas wins out and Oklahoma State beats West Virginia, Texas is in regardless of the OU/WVU outcome.
B. Texas wins out and assuming WVU beats Oklahoma State, WVU must beat Oklahoma for Texas to get in.

Stanford appears to be eliminated.

Utah must beat Colorado and they need to Arizona State to drop one to either Oregon or Arizona.

Ah, I missed a Stanford loss.

Thanks alot!

UL Monroe?

ULM is 4-2 in Sun Belt. Arkansas St is 3-3 and ULL is 3-3. ULL beat Ark St and plays ULM next week.

 

[Dollaz]

Obviously, if ULM wins both they are in the title game. But, if they lose to either and the other one wins out, the tiebreaker would be head to head?

Head-to-head and then on down the line as necessary:

If Arkansas State wins and ULM beats ULL next week - Arkansas State would go
If Arkansas State wins and ULL beats ULM next week - ULL would go
If ULM wins and ULM beats ULL next week - ULM would go
If ULM wins and ULL beats ULM next week - ULL would go

That is assuming ASU wins at Texas St the following week. And assuming ULL beats South Alabama this week. Alot of moving parts yet.

I think I did that right.

ODU -31. VMI might be the worst team I've seen. This is the last game at Foreman Field.(before renovation). The 3rd stringers would still blow out VMI. I think they are going to let some frustration out on VMI. I do think they will pull the starters early to avoid too much of an embarrassment, but I think they could be up 30 at halftime. I expect this to be ugly.

Stanford appears to be eliminated.

Utah must beat Colorado and they need to Arizona State to drop one to either Oregon or Arizona.

Oklahoma only has 1 conference loss. What happens if WVU beats OKlahoma and Texas beats Kansas?

Nevermind. Top 2 make it.

Dont love it but had to bite on ODU -7 when it popped. Team seems to be on a bit of a roll.
