Maybe the bye in the playoffs isn't an advantage.

A win is a win for ND but Georgia helped them out. A long drop in the first half, giving back 15 yards when they had it at the eleven, giving up the kick return, and jumping off-sides on the critical fourth down. I think I've got Georgia if they re-matched.
What does that mean? Great teams (we are talking about national champion level teams here) either don’t make many of those mistakes, or they are good enough to overcome them. If Georgia falls apart without one player and gets shut down by an “underdog/overmatched” ND, then they’re not national championship worthy this year. I watched that UGA-GT game. Just like the Texas-ASU game, if a targeting call was appropriately called in the last 2 minutes, Georgia (and Texas) very likely lose.

Officiating in this game

The future looks good. The young kids played well. We almost beat the refs and PSU.

If I was the coach at NU with historical ref issues, I would spend a few bucks to have six 4K cameras at each game, couple student video editors and a couple sports influencers and humiliate the refs every game with point of emphasis to get refs in the videos. Tag them. Spend to give them public profiles. And I would stay calm and in the box every game.

At let them know, when you stop fvcking me, I’ll stop fvcking you. I make more money and can do this forever. Refs would lash back first then figure it out.

It’s not like B1G has ever cared about ref quality. Need a multi millionaire with some balls. Oh yeah, I would deny any involvement in this campaign but make sure every ref knew I control it.

Heck, might have my unaffiliated grown son or father openly manage it. NCAA can’t control people not under ncaa control. And with ncaa court losses mounting, doubt this would be a hill to defend for them

Travel question

I've been curious about the long distance games and their impact on performance. The Cats play Washington on March 8 and Oregon the 11th. Do you think they will just stay on the west coast?
First, it is FEB not March. Regardless, I would sure guess so. I mean one game is on Sat and even if they came home they would still likely travel on MON so they would miss two days of classes regardless. Pretty hard to go back and forth. For that trip very short turnaround
