I'll certainly give you that. They play complementary football and with few mistakes, and a stout defense.
However, I don't think PSU, and certainly not OSU get held to 10 pts.

I don't think anyone wins without their staring QB. That included Georgia.

2018. Alabama. Tua. National Champ. Probably more.

Here's of list of winners

 

[kansasdad]

All four teams with the bye (Conference Champs) are done for the season.

Not really considering half the game was over.

College Football Playoff National Championship: Alabama 26, Georgia 23 (OT) | Jan. 8, 2018

With Alabama trailing SEC foe Georgia 13-0 at halftime of the 2018 College Football Playoff National Championship, Alabama coach Nick Saban sent then-backup quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to try to ignite the Crimson Tide's offense in the second half. Tagovailoa had backed up starter Jalen Hurts all season and he was 35-for-53 passing for 470 yards, eight touchdowns and one interception in his reserve role in the regular season. So he had played some and performed very well — typically in the second halves of blowout wins — but this was the second half of the national championship game.

Given the circumstances, Tagovailoa was just what the doctor order. He went 14-for-24 passing for 166 yards, three touchdowns and one interception, including the game-winning strike to DeVonta Smith in overtime, giving the Crimson Tide another national championship.

Yeah, but two of the teams should have never had a bye. I don't think the bye had a lot to do with it.

2014 Buckeyes. 3rd stringer Cardale Jones QB’d. They beat Alabama at the Sugar Bowl. Also beat the Ducks for the championship, but that was kind of an afterthought.

Ok, so which team will win if their starting QB doesn't play the rest of the games?

Beats me. That’s a nice thing about college ball.

 

[jimh406]

All of the conferences are equal ... ignore that the game is 31-7.

 

[noharleyyet]

Jawja’s 2nd team qb’s pedigree no showed. ND is better today than I thought. Will Howard has OSU peaking, UT’s defense has their work cut out. I am not confidant in the Horn’s offense. ASU lopsided every stat but the scoreboard.

That said forkfinder, I’m hoping you have a crow sammich on the menu.

So are you arguing with yourself now?

Ohio state -Alabama 2014, Cardale Jones

Ones with talent.

A&M lost to a second string qb too

I have to tell you that this format has really made it fun for me. The championship run is very exciting and a bit unpredictable. Most of the games you could see coming, but ND winning caught me off guard. I thought Oregon had more, and really didn't pay attention to Scattebo much until this game.

Super fun.

 

[jimh406]

Can someone predict the winner. We all want to make money.

I’m sure I’m in the minority but I absolutely disagree. We had an entire round of terrible games, tv ratings back that. It’s rare that there would be 8 teams that should realistically play for a national title, much less 12 or the 16 that we’re probably headed for. I don’t want Cinderella in the playoffs, I want to see the best on best. It shouldn’t be about inclusion and who “deserves” a chance.
