Mertz needs to be careful with all these interceptions, Gutey might draft him.

Nah, he’ll be throwing picks on this same field in a few years.

I'm not a Collehe Football guy but I assume both of these teams won't be sniffing the playoffs.
I think the Irish will lose a game. Still have Cincinnati, UNC, USC and at Virginia Tech. I believe 4 opponents have byes before they play the Irish. So, did Wisconsin and that didn't work out today.

Could they really make the playoffs with potentially one top 25 win?

North Carolina is ranked as well. Hard to say in September. Things just need to play out. Buckle up. It will be a fun ride.

Two SEC teams will make it. Oregon is in damn good position. Probably a Big Ten team. ND has an uphill battle for sure.

What a great country when you can be ranked by beating Virginia and Georgia St.  If ND does make the playoffs they will get rolled.

An undefeated Notre Dame team being left out of the CFP? Lol come on. That might be the dumbest take in Scoop. And that is absolutely saying something.

I can't see how UW can continue with Mertz. I fail to see any QB qualities.

Terrible in the pocket, always drifting back and to the right, the worst accuracy I have seen in many a year. There is not one quality anyone can point to and say, OK, let's build on that.

Bollinger, Tolzein, Stocco, even Joel Stave, would have won this game today.

It’s amazing to think he was the 21st rated player in the country by ESPN coming out of high school. Yeesh!

3-0 Wyoming didn't show up versus one of worst FBS schools in UConn. 13-0 on CBSSN.

3-0 Baylor leading #14 Iowa State 14-7 on FOX.

Why? The computers determine the top four, not voters. SOS is going to hurt them.

It’s impossible to envision a scenario in which an undefeated ND team doesn’t make the playoffs.

And if they manage to go unbeaten, that’s cool. I always enjoy watching them lose by 4-5 TDs with the whole country watching.

I remember people buzzing like he'd be a Heisman contender back in July/August  ;D ;D

An undefeated ND will be in the CFP, of course, but this is just not a good ND team.  The teams that got shellacked in the CFP were never title contenders but they would steamroll this years ND team.  They have snuck by 3 mediocre to decent teams and let a team with no offense and a hapless QB hang around until the 4th.

Baylor upsets Iowa State
Arkansas upsets Texas A&M
NC State upsets Clemson

Auburn avoids upset in the final minute vs Georgia State.
Late two point attempt failed for UConn vs Wyoming.
UTSA wins a thriller vs Memphis on a late field goal.
Michigan hangs on versus Rutgers.
Purdue wins late vs Illinois.

Mid afternoon was slot was outstanding!

Agree about ND, Wags. I can't remember ND being so unable and/or unwilling to run the ball, and the defense has lots of holes.

Another team that's obviously taken a huge step back is Clemson. I guess it's not easy replacing the best QB in college football after all. Their offense is a disaster.
