The Big Ten is going to absolutely dominate this playoff. I haven’t seen a team play so far that Iowa couldn’t beat six out of 10 times.
CFP games thus far

I have no doubt iowa could contend with these 4 schools that have played (or currently playing).
This game looks like Big Ten West game. Windy out 
one team can’t move the ball and somehow is still in the game one team is moving the ball and uglies up the drives and can’t score
one team can’t move the ball and somehow is still in the game one team is moving the ball and uglies up the drives and can’t score These two teams look like Iowa offenses. Or maybe their defenses are just out of this world (I doubt it). And wow, I haven’t seen a gut like Elko’s since the 80’s.
I’ll be surprised if Ohio State gives up 10 points to either of these teams.
Elko and Texas A&M just got lucky at the end of the 1st half. 2nd missed FG by Miami in the game.
The only reason they had the chance to kick a FG, was because A&M tried a fake punt at their own 40-something yard line.
Is this boring football? That would definitely be the narrative if Iowa was playing in it.
I imagine ESPN will describe it as a defensive juggernaut since there is a SEC team in it.

It’s the coaching decisions that are driving me crazy. These guys have no idea what they’re doing.
Exactly.
When you’re in a defensively dominated game. Stupid calls/plays/penalties are magnified.
Miami not running the ball to center for their kicker in those conditions was inexcusable

And now a doinker for the 3rd missed FG for Miami.
Hell, Iowa and PSU scored 3 times as many points in 2004.

I have seen some runners duck out of bounds in this game and it being so close in score and so hard to get yards you as a coach and the player you want to stay in bounds and try to get another yard or two.
Also the TAMU is not very accurate, if he was I think they would probably be ahead especially with his running ability

These coaches make Brian Ferentz look like a genius. Miami not running the ball down their throat until this last drive is inexcusable.
Exactly what I told my brother. This was a boring, ugly game by two inept "offenses." SEC? LOL
Playing at home, the SEC team couldn't even score a touchdown against a team many believe didn't belong in the CFP. The SEC is a legend in its own mind, and at ESPN Headquarters, but that's about it. The fantasy is beginning to unravel. And just wait til Cignetti blows Alabama outta the Rose Bowl.
Nope. He hit the receiver with his facemask. Totally legal. A Bob Sanders hit, and it saved the game.
I don't know about that. Tulane is moving the ball all over the field, and the Green Wave defense is settling in. Could turn out to be a ballgame. I hear a team was ahead last night 17-0, totally dominating the game, but ended up getting beat 34-24 . . .
Would love to see the Big Ten get 3 into the Final Four.
Montana St dominating the Grizzlies in the trenches and the scoreboard so far.

Actually it was the part of the helmet above the face mask. It could have been called, but glad it wasn’t. Nice, hard hit.
The running games and physicality outside of the big ten is just a joke.
There's a reason Indiana is a 7 point favorite over Bama

Anyone else think the A&M QB could have easily scored on a QB draw at the end of the game? I get that they had no TO’s, but ….
Should have tried a run once.Anyone else think the A&M QB could have easily scored on a QB draw at the end of the game? I get that they had no TO’s, but ….
Just a joke that they and JMU are in the playoffs.
2 of the 4 first round games will be blowouts with casual fans turning them off at halftime
You mean that guy people try to say is better than Grono?Maybe Sully gets a shot in the 4Q?
