This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Exactly- head-to-head is not a trump card by garbageplate
The committee put Michigan over Michigan State despite the head-to-head result from a week prior. If Cincinnati loses, I think they will plummet so far below ND that it will not be much of a discussion. Also, although I disagree with the notion that recent performance or perceived trends should factor into the analysis, I think the committee will view ND as having improved over the season and Cincinnati as having regresssed.
Cincinnati's schedule is a complete joke and it will not withstand even the slightest bit of scrutiny.
