Yeah I switched my picks from Iowa to Oregon - prior to kickoff. Got to gamble to win

According to Bleacher Report, there's a possibility that the CFP National Championship Game maybe postponed due to Ohio State players could be tested for COVID.

Fuck that shit! Ohio State cancelled three goddamn games instead of rescheduling it. And don't forget they changed a rule, making then eligibile to play in the Big Ten Championship Game, despite playing 6 fucking games! It's bullshit excuses for OSU to have a easier road than everybody that are contending for the National Championship game.

CFP chief: No schedule changes for Bama-OSU

CFP executive director Bill Hancock said there are no changes for the national championship game, with Alabama and Ohio State expected to play Monday as scheduled.

Looks like they had to do damage control pretty fast when it leaked they were discussing postponing it lmao

Thanks Chris for posting that because it's unnecessary to postpone something huge like the CFP title game.

Congratulations to DeVonta Smith for winning the 2020 Heisman Trophy! He's the first wide receiver to win the Heisman since Desmond Howard in 1991.

Here's the Heisman Trophy voting among the finalists:

1. DeVonta Smith- 1,866 points (447 first-place votes)
2. Trevor Lawrence - 1,187 points (222)
3. Mac Jones - 1,130 points (138)
4. Kyle Trask - 736 points (61)

Trevor Lawrence not winning - sort of now confirms the Heisman Trophy is a tool of disdain

Too bad Juice. He was not the best college football in the country this year. Him missing two games of COVID derailed his chance to win the trophy. The Heisman committee got it right by voting Smith to win it.

Speaking of Lawrence, it's announced that he's going pro, entering the 2021 NFL Draft.

Can't really debate Smith winning the Heisman, he's a special talent.

Landing spot in the NFL will be huge, hope for his sake he doesn't go to the Eagles.

I don't even like Clemson - but Lawrence was by far the best player. He made players who in the summer had been backups. Devonta Smith is a talent - but he literally has another top draft pick in Mac Jones throwing the ball to him. Plus Doom - your a Crimson Tide supporter, your bias is already known.

I love Lawrence (Unless he pulls an Eli) but he was not the best player in CFB this year. Mac Jones and Kyle Trask had better years from the QB position. Trevor will (hopefully for my Jags sake) go on to be the best QB out of the three but he didn't deserve the Heisman.

Trask was better! HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Clearly you didn't watch the Cotton Bowl game. Trask was terrible. Say Mac and Trask had a better year - just means you've not watched any games this year.

 

[CakeWalker]

Also as a Jags fans - if you think Mac and Trask both had better season - you should be hoping the Jags draft 'the better form player'.

One game in which all of his starting receivers weren't playing, hardly enough to judge. Lawrence didn't play great against OSU. Trask and Jones had better years than Lawrence, I don't think that's even debatable.

Passing TDs
Trask - 43
Jones - 36
Lawrence - 24 (10 games)

Interceptions
Trask - 8
Lawrence - 5 (10 games)
Jones - 4

Completion %
Jones - 77%
Lawrence - 69.2%
Trask - 68.9

I love Lawrence but he simply had a worse year than Trask and Jones.

Awful argument.

Trevor Lawrence has been one of the best QB's in CFB for three years. Jones had one good year, Trask had one good year and a half.

Lawrence is clearly better but Trask and Jones had better years.
