Best two teams in the country this year. I think this is a toss up, but I'm going Oregon. It would not surprise me at all if OSU won.

I think these are the top 2 teams. Picking OSU because I can’t see Oregon beating them twice. But rooting for Oregon to win their first national championship.

Ohio State came out on fire against Tennessee and has all the hype after last week, but rising to the occasion two weeks in a row isn't always easy.

Kind of sucks this is happening so early; I'd have been happy with it as the championship game. But it's going to be awesome in the Rose Bowl setting.
 
Well, not a championship quality game as I had hoped. Ohio State is full speed ahead. Too much was made of the loss in a rivalry game.
 
I’ve got no love for Ohio State. However I was hoping they would beat the pants off of Oregon. So far do good….

Oregon has a TON of money and has a QB that’s playing for his third team in 6 years. They’re the best example of what college football has become.

You're rooting for the Yankees to beat the Dodgers.



"Ohio State University is the most valuable athletic program, worth an estimated $1.32 billion. The Buckeyes had $280 million in revenue in 2023, the most of any school."

In a sense, I am. Ohio State has always been good. As soon as Phil Knight (money) got involved with Oregon, they got a lot better….Money tilted the scales…

IMO, tonight will only strengthen the calls for revamped seeding next year. #1 Oregon drew #6 Ohio State instead of #9 Boise State or #12 Arizona State…. doesn’t excuse how the Ducks came out flat, but there should be more incentive to having the top overall seed.
 
Poll: Who is WRU?

I think it's kind of close as of late. Garrett Wilson, Chris Olave, Jackson Smith-Njigba, Marvin Harrison Jr., Emeka Egbuka, Jeremiah Smith v.s. Poppi Williams, etc.

Seeding is an obvious issue, however, the teams with a bye are 0-3 so far. The extended time off is an issue as well and all of these teams should've had home field advantage this week. The end results may have been the same, but I feel as though the games would've played out differently.

Agreed. I wish the national championship was still the first Monday after New Year’s Day and tonight’s games were semifinals.

There was a decent gap in-between the conference championships and the first round. Move the latter up and then play the quarterfinals when the first round took place.
