    I think we'd need a larger playoff format to even consider including them.

    Conspiracy James Carville calls ESPN 'gutless' over apology to SEC for his Alabama theory

    By Ryan Gaydos | Fox News




    James Carville, the former lead strategist for Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign, slammed ESPN on Saturday after the network issued an apology for his theory the SEC is essentially working for Alabama.

    Carville, 74, appeared on ESPN’s “College Gameday” and offered a hot take about the suspension of LSU linebacker Devin White, who didn’t appear in the first half of the game against Alabama because of a targeting penalty he received the week before against Mississippi State.

    Carville, who graduated from LSU, said on the network it wasn’t a coincidence White was suspended.

    “Tennessee’s best defensive player couldn’t play against Alabama because of the SEC. Missouri’s best defensive player couldn’t play against Alabama because the SEC kicked him out. [Texas] A&M’s best defensive player couldn’t play against Alabama ’cause [sic] he was taken out,” Carville said.

    “And now, the best defensive player in the conference is not going to play the first half for nothing. He did nothing wrong.”

    Carville had also written an op-ed in The Advocate in late October calling on SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey to overturn the suspension.

    “In the name of all that is right, holy and just in this world, I beg SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey— tear this abomination of a decision down now,” he wrote.

    ESPN issued an apology over Carville’s statement on the SEC.

    “While appearing as a guest on ‘College GameDay’ earlier today, James Carville offered his thoughts on SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey,” ESPN said in a statement. “As we regularly demonstrate here on ESPN, diverse opinions are encouraged. However, these actions were over the top, and we would like to apologize to Commissioner Sankey for them.”

    Carville didn’t take too kindly to ESPN’s apology. He tweeted a picture of himself hours before kickoff calling the network “gutless.”

    “Grabbing bite to eat @philsoysterbar⁩ and I see gutless ESPN cut in their show to bow down to the SEC. well I got documentary evidence they knew what they were gonna get on air but still can’t help but suck up to power,” Carville tweeted.

    It didn’t appear White would have made a huge difference in the ball game. Alabama defeated LSU, 29-0.

    Okay, final week.

    #1 Alabama will easily beat #4 Georgia
    #2 Clemson will easily beat unranked Pitt
    #3 Notre Dame is finished at 12-0

    That leaves Oklahoma, Ohio State, Michigan, and UCF on the bubble.

    #5 Oklahoma plays #14 Texas
    #6 Ohio State plays #21 Northwestern
    #7 Michigan is done after getting their asses kicked by Ohio State
    #8 Undefeated UCF plays unranked Memphis with a backup quarterback after the starter was injured.

    If UCF finishes unbeaten after winning with a backup, I vote let the 4 undefeated teams play for the championship. #2 Clemson has only played 2 ranked opponents #19 and #20 and only beat them by 2 points each.
    Michigan plays Northwestern in the B10 championship

    SJW BACKLASH GROWS: Thousands Express Outrage At Hit Piece Over Heisman Winner's Tweets From When He Was 14

    By Ryan Saavedra - The Daily Wire




    Outrage continued to grow on Sunday over a hit piece written by USA Today blogger Scott Gleeson about Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray, who just won the Heisman Trophy.

    Gleeson wrote an article shaming Murray immediately after he won college football's top individual award, over some tweets that he wrote when he was as young as 14-years-old.

    "But the Oklahoma quarterback's memorable night also helped resurface social media's memory of several homophobic tweets more than six years old," Gleeson wrote. "When Murray was 15 years old, he tweeted at his friends (via his since-verified Twitter account) using an anti-gay slur to defame them."

    Gleeson later updated his piece to include Murray's apology, claiming that the star quarterback "took accountability" after Gleeson's hit piece on him.

    The backlash to Gleeson's absurd piece exploded on Sunday morning, with tens of thousands of people expressing outrage over the fact that this blogger decided to attack a young man during one of the greatest moments of his life over comments he made years prior when he was 14. On the initial tweet from USA Today alone, more than 6,900 people commented on it with nearly all the comments disapproving of the article.

    Here are some of the top responses to Gleeson's article that got the most traction on social media:

    Nobody posted "USA Today is a bunch of fucking faggots" in response? Gutless rump rangers.

    Didn't watch the game last night, but was reading about it, quite amazing what Clemson pulled off last night:

    - worst loss for Alabama since Saban has been head coach
    - first loss by at least 20 points since 2003
    - Clemson QB was a 19 yo true freshman (first to start and win national title in 33 years)
    - 44 points by Clemson is tied for second most allowed under Saban at Alabama

    Another one:

    - Clemson became the first team in modern college football history to finish a season 15-0 and the first overall to do so since Penn in 1897
