College Football Championship Weekend Thread

JT039 : 12/1/2023 5:57 am
Oregon vs Washington tonight. Oregon is the better team right now. Washington clipped them earlier. Should be a fun matchup with Penix and Nix slinging it. Lot of good WRs as well.

Here’s a hypothetical scenario. You’re winners this weekend:
Washington
Michigan
FSU
Bama
Texas

If this is this case - No SEC in the final 4? Hmmmm

And actual defense. Like the Ole SEC days.

Penix hasn’t looked great either. It’s a 3 QB draft for me.



You mean the same D he shredded for 33 points previously (and should have been 36 if not for the missed FG)?



Someone’s drinking early tonight. I advise you to stay away from this thread because your boy doesn’t look good and others are starting to see it.

And nix sucked in the first half against UW by missing easy throws and TDs. You want to start this shit now or you gonna watch your team hopefully win?

Your choice.


That is a little agressive... he is allowed to have his opinions too. I like Nix more than most here. I can see him going late 1 in a trade up. He is above average runner, thrower, etc. He isn't as bad as most here claim he is. Saying that he is like my 5th best QB in this class.

LOL. He still scored 33 points. And should have been 36. But you be you, i guess.

Not the best start. But last time i checked, football is four quarters. We’ll see what happens. Defense needs to step up here

To where nix is throwing it



That last one was behind the WR, too, on that slant.

Nix has NEVER had great arm.


That was about 1/2 foot behind perfect and that wrap around defense is likely PI in the NFL. His arm is plenty strong from what I see and the ball is out quickly.

How strange, Cal in the ACC. "The World Turned Up side Down". A song the British Army played as they marched out of Yorktown to lay down their arms and surrender to the ragtag American Army.
Terrible decision

Had time but decided to check down.

Washington can control this game with a TD here.

It looks to me as if Washington is controlling the line of scrimmage. Penix has a very clean pocket on most plays, and Nix doesn’t.

It sure seems he needs to put all his body into his throws. It is a herky jerky motion that I see.

Nix has a much smoother motion and a quicker release.

I admit I have limited exposure to both of them. So I may need to revise my observations by game end.

Since the first snap, UDub has owned BOTH lines of scrimmage.

They can score points in bunches... If Washington starts trying to slow things down Oregon and make a move. Still think Washington wins by 10 but you never know with these levels of offense.

Sometimes it gets away from you and it happens quickly. And it felt that way from the jump for Oregon. The spread for this game was ridiculous, Washington clearly came in very disrespected.
