Yep unfortunately these 2025 CFP teams #11 BYU & #12 Miami  will not make the 12 teams CFP tournament.  #16 Virginia 10-2, ACC Champ & #24 Tulane 10-2 or North Texas 11-1, American Athletci Champs will make the CFP instead.  Kinda BS, but dat’s the CFP format policy.  The AAC & AA Champs are automatically In, no matter their CFP rankings.

I believe the CFP should go by records and power rankings (strength of schedule).  The ACC was weak dis year and American Athletic has no business in the CFP tournament.  The Mountain West is a tougher conference vs AA.  The BIG 12 was a tuff conference dis year with Texas Tech, BYU and Utah.  I think Texas Tech is gonna be a big surprise in the CFP tournament.  Seen them 4 times in 2 years, really impress with dis FB team.

Shoot 1 of these teams should replace Tulane: #11 BYU 11-1, #13 Vandy 10-2, #15 Utah 10-2 (these 3 teams are better than Virginia and Tulane).  My CFP, No on Virginia and Tulane.  Yes on BYU and Vandy.  Tough luck for Utah.  And, #14 Texas 9-3 without any doubt does not belong in the CFP.  C.Sark and C.Neuheisel claims dat Texas should be in are delusional (Bozo’s & Fools)…  Cheers

HURRAY! WE’RE #17. Great year for Riley and the boys. I’m proud of this team. They fought hard. They’re really close to being #16 or even #15. I love LA.

Java – Is that better?

ESPN Bowl predictions as of today, 12-01-25

12-30-25.  USC 9-3, BIG vs BYU 11-1, Big 12, Alamo Bowl, San Antonio, Tx.  Dis will be a very good game.  San Antonio is a nice place to visit for our team.  USC must bring their A game, play hard & physical all 4 qts.  I’ve seen BYU dis year and they are a physical team.

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/47150538/college-football-playoff-bowl-projections-following-week-14

Stats comparison.

USC.  Offense: #10, 472 ypg, scoring, #14 36.9 pt pg.  Defense:  #47, 349 ypg, allowed scoring, #46, 22.42 pts pg

BYU.  Offense:  #42, 412 ygp, scoring, #22, 34 pts pg.  Defense:  #29, 325 ypg, allowed scoring, #14, 17.75 pts pg

USC has way better O, BYU da better D.  I predict USC pulls out a close W, 34-30

Yeah this could be a weird one.  We were going to go together and do a huge amount of extreme sports stuff.   Wife just came down with a non life threatening health situation that would make hiking glaciers, paragliding, kayaking etc impossible.  Trip is 18 days away.  It was always a bucket list item for myself and the boys.  But summers here are winters there and they didn’t want that.  And winter vacations were always out.  So she wants me to still go solo and I am hesitant.  Lot of this thing is already paid for and non refundable.  So I am not sure here.  She’s being a good solider and saying she doesn’t want to stop me from a  trip of a lifetime and waste money.  I am like yeah, but it’s Christmas and New Year’s.  She’s like who cares, I will be with my kids I will be fine.  Think I am still going but kinda a little unsure about doing this now.    You’ll know I guess if I start posting pictures of penguins and Glaciers and horseback rides lol  I hear they have a lot of sheep.  Couple guys on this board would be pretty turned on b y that I think lol
