The "Thinning Of The Herd" 11/16 Edition (My Work Is Done)


Nov 17, 2019, 6:48 AM

My weekly public service to anybody out there who believes there will be more than 4 undefeated teams at the end of the year vying for a place in the College Football Playoffs. It won’t happen, and it didn’t happen, despite each year worry and angst are abound with people wondering if we will have a decision to make among undefeated teams come playoff time.

The inevitable always happens….it’s called “the thinning of the herd”

And, once again, the herd has been thinned below 4.

Recap Of Last Week
What we found out, and it should not be a surprise, is that rarefied air of undefeated is difficult to navigate in November. It gets harder to row a boat and it is gets harder to hold leads at home when Game Day is at your site.

Minnesota found out that one great win in November does not mean you can’t bring your “A” game the next week. They also found out a coach is not supposed to go onto the field.

And Baylor found out that all of the emotion of Game Day and a big lead is sometimes a hindrance when trying to withstand the pressure of doing something special.

So my job here is really now done…as the thinning of the herd weekly post was simply to show you all that in no way were we going to have more than 4 undefeated teams. But, I will continue my public service to you because it is the month we give thanks and our Tigers have put me in such a good mood!

The herd is now at 3….and call me crazy…but I don’t think the losing is over yet.

Next Week: Guaranteed Thinning Will Take Place
None

"Upset Alert”
Penn State at Ohio State…the Buckeyes have two critical hurdles to jump the next two weeks.

Will Keep Winning....For Now
Arkansas at LSU…firing Chad Morris mid-season is not going to change the fact that Arky is terrible.
Clemson has a bye week.

Ohio St is going to kill PSU. I wish it weren’t the case but we need to face the truth, Ohio St is the most well rounded team out there and it’s a shame we will most likely face them in the 1st round because the CFP Committee drank the SEC kool aid and doesn’t get who the two best teams are.
