THE WIZARDRY OF OS
By Scott Osborne
If you are expecting me to write about a G-league Pelicans roster or a Saints team that needed 3 missed kicks from one of the best kickers in the league to get their first win in 2 months, sorry.
The professional sports world is not a fun pastime for my fandom to engage in these days. LSU football is a rough watch as well, but the Tigers are closely related to my topic this week.
Where are the great teams in college football? I know a bunch of teams have good records, but they certainly don’t pass the eye test.
Clearly, Oregon has had the best regular season being undefeated with a win over Ohio State. Outside of that one point win, their only other ranked win was over Boise State by 3, also at home.
The Big 10 does have 4 of the top 5 teams in the rankings, but that is more the product of the schedules. Most of the Big 10 is playing nine conference games and 3 non conference games against middle of the road teams (because of the 9 game conference schedule).
Most of the non conference games are FIU, Akron, Bowling Green, and the like.
Wisconsin stepped out of conference against Alabama and got thrashed at home. Michigan played Texas and got stomped.
In the Big Ten, Indiana, Ohio State, and Penn State play each other, but Oregon only had to face Ohio State. This is the consequence of having a huge conference, but sticking with 9 conference games. When only 4 of the 18 are highly competitive, the records of the top teams get inflated.
That being said, what is my argument for the quality of the SEC? Everyone is above average? A&M blew their chance against Notre Dame. Texas has the weakest conference schedule and blew it at home against Georgia. Georgia has lost two games and looks inept on offense. Alabama can’t win in the state of Tennessee. The Vols were impressive to start the year, then struggled, and have one chance against Georgia to make a statement. Meanwhile, Ole Miss has mastered the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thing. LSU, South Carolina, and Missouri make noise, but it is just noise. None of these teams feel like national champions.
The ACC is a wreck and Miami is the leader of the gang that can’t shoot straight. Notre Dame’s schedule is awful and their win over A&M will get them in the playoff, but nothing about that team screams national champion either.
As a Saints fan that expects them to draft very early, who am I supposed to get excited about? Who are the great players on the great teams? Where are the Malik Nabors, Marvin Harrison Jr., Nick Bosa, and Jayden Daniels type difference makers?
Maybe having no great teams will make the 12 team playoff games very competitive and fun to watch. That’s the half full perspective.
As a fan of a team recognizing the mediocrity of college football this year, it absolutely depresses me to know my team can’t even break into this group. As a fan of college football, I am interested to see if this year is the new norm or a one off. Time will tell.
