I think
- Texas takes down ASU by about 10 pts.
- OSU wins payback game by a TD in a lower scoring game than their first meeting. OSU by a TD.
- UGA vs ND in the New Orleans. I keep waffling on the winner.
- --Can UGA stop ND's running game and keep Riley Leonard in the pocket?
---Can UGA get their running game back on track and will their backup QB play with composure and avoid critical mistakes
--I think ND pulls out a close one 24-20

I’ve said since we lost to Oregon that they wouldn’t make it to the finals. Ohio State beats them today.
Would love to have the guts to pick Arizona State but Texas wins going away by 10-14 points
I think Notre Dame is on a roll and takes out Georgia

Big Duck fan today. I think PSU matches up better with Oregon and they are my #2 team after PSU.
Let's let Phil Knight get his NC and then be less motivated to dump millions into his quest moving forward.

I’m picking OSU, ND and Texas.
I’ll be rooting for Oregon, Georgia and ASU. 😃
 
Texas--ASU did too much talking this week. The last thing you want to do is piss off the better team. I was rooting for ASU but I'm over that after this week. Plus, I want Oregon/Ohio State to have to work to make the final.

Georgia--I'm taking Smart over Freeman.

Ohio State--I hate this because I think Oregon got screwed. Ohio State has the better defense and that loss to Michigan pissed them off. Go Oregon but...yeah, money goes on Ohio State.

Picking (and rooting for), Arizona State, Ohio State and Notre Dame.
As much as I would like to play those Homer Domers next, I just can't root for them under any circumstances. So, Ga ASU and no one else. Can't root for the best team money can buy either or that team to the west.

Texas. Hoping ASU makes it interesting for as long as possible, but could see Texas getting hot and not letting up.

OSU. Tennessee has a good defense. Their offense isn't the best (Nico not living up to the $8 mil hype), but Buckeyes cut threw them like a hot knife and butter. Oregon will need more defense than they showed vs us.

I can't pick against Smart. He's basically Saban 2 until proven otherwise. Lots of holes in this roster, but they are still the 2nd biggest, fastest team of athletes in the country. As long as the WRs don't drop 5+ passes, I think they win. Be interesting to see how they run/pass on each other. 13-10 or 38-35 type of game to me.

I initially thought ND was only ranked high because of their crappy schedule but it's been impressive the way they rolled through people down the stretch. They didn't have any close calls like PSU did vs Minnesota. They look pretty strong to me.

GA struggled to beat GA Tech so I'd have to pick ND. Of course GA beat Texas and that's better than any ND win this season. I'll still pick ND.

I'll root for AZ to upset Texas but I think it's a long shot.

I'll root for Oregon because I hate OSU but I think OSU wins.
 
Re: Texas vs Arizona State

Texas down the stretch:

L 15-30 Georgia at home
W 27-24 at Vanderbilt
W 49-17 Florida at home
W 20-10 at Arkansas
W 31-14 Kentucky at home
W 17-7 Texas A&M at home
L 21-19 Georgia Neutral field with Georgia losing its QB
W 38-24 Clemson at home in a game that was closer than the score indicates

It might also be worth noting that Texas A&M lost its bowl game to USC.

ASU down the stretch:

W 48-21 at OkSt
W 35-31 UCF at home
W 24-14 at Kansas State
W 28-23 BYU at home
W 49-7 at Arizona
W 45-17 vs Iowa St neutral field

It might be worth noting that:

Iowa St beat Miami in their bowl game.
BYU beat Colorado in their bowl game.

I feel like ASU found its game while Texas has been good, but not overly impressive.

I’m probably way off, but I think ASU competes today.

I mean neither team has done anything
Texas looked good against Clemson though...ASU has to stop their run game
