Cuts both ways...you are certain they won't get pounded, then you don't need points. Here's the chance to prove on the field UCF belongs in the playoff as an undefeated team. Looks like they might get UGA in the Peach Bowl. These type matchups depend on whether UGA is interested or not.. no, no, no "pounding ' is points !..lots of points!. You feel certain of a pounding by lots of points. Back it up. Easy money if you're certain of a "pounding"Seeing how UGA scored 6 points in its last bowl game vs UCF maybe it will try to dodge UCF again I said a select group would win handily. 2 TDs is winning handily.

That's two wagers you've backed out on now. Remember that one for $5000 that if you came down here to a local gun show you claimed you'd have to pass a background check, because the gun show loophole was a myth I wagered there would be no background check whatsoever at certain sellers booths.
BTW Handily might be 2 Tds "Pounded" is 5 Tds

BTW Handily might be 2 Tds "Pounded" is 5 Tds At certain sellers - of course, that's a private sale, no background check is required by law. At an FFL booth, there would be a background check. Like I said then, that's not a wager based on an unknown outcome...that was a guaranteed $5,000 for you. I may have been born at night, but it wasn't last night.

A G5 school could make it, but their non-con schedule would need to include some good P5 opponents...not UCF's weak-ass non-con slate of Austin Peay, FIU, Maine, GT & UMD. (Maine & GT games were cancelled for Irma.)
The Houston team last season is the one G5 team we’ve seen in four years that was set up to potentially threaten to make the field. Oddly enough, they won the two tough Power 5 games they scheduled (Oklahoma and Louisville) but couldn’t hold up their end of the bargain in conference play.

Their brand of offense is easier to defend after you've seen it a few years in a row, like the conference teams do. I was disappointed that they didn't make it.

Do you guys honestly think something with an AAC patch on its jerseys would ever be permitted to compete for the Dr Pepper Invitational trophy ?...no matter who they played and beat. This CFP thing is NOT an FBS championship. It's strictly a 'P5" club concoction. That's why the cartel made up these P5 and G5 , non NCAA, monikers. It cuts the Invitational field in half.

A scenario could play out where Auburn would play UGA 2x, Bama 2x and Clemson 2x in the same season....

The P5, or "cartel" didn't invent the "P5 & G5" monikers.... the press did. The schools have ARRANGED THEMSELVES along this line.... quite precisely, with their athletic budgets. The last time I looked, there was practically ZERO overlap between the two. Maybe, one team at most. ALL P5 budgets were above the breakpoint, ALL G5 teams were below. The difference is REAL, and measurable.

Wrong. Each question is easy to answer. The problem is that the correct answers expose the inherent bias, inequities and unfairness intentionally built into the CFP. Let me simplify one question for you. Multiple choice: Should the best team in college football have the opportunity to compete for the CFP national championship? A. Yes B. It depends The correct answer is A: yes. Do you agree? Here are the questions I posed to James Howell, together with the correct answers: What if the best team in FBS plays a weak schedule? Should the best team in FBS be denied an opportunity to compete in the CFP? Answer: no maybeWhat if a few years back UCF had scheduled away games for 2017 at Nebraska, at Oregon State, at FSU and at Baylor, and won all four games? Answer: UCF should not be penalized for scheduling such weak OOC opponents, but rather upon how well it plays vs. the opponents on its schedule. nopeShould the measure be a team’s schedule or how it performs vs. the teams on its schedule? Answer: solely upon how it performs vs. the teams on its schedule, regardless of the strength of its schedule. nopeIs it possible for a dominating win over a weaker opponent to be more impressive than a close win over a stronger opponent? Answer: yes. agreeWhat have we learned from the NYD games between G5 teams with weak schedules and P5 teams with strong schedules? Answer: overall, teams from G5 conferences have proved to be marginally superior to the teams from P5 conferences they have faced in NYD bowl games. marginally superior, is that like getting a little bit pregnant? In 2016, the G5 was 18-76 / .191 against the P5 (19-80 / .192 if you include bowls). You and Bevo (and Hero) are almost always on the same page. However, ymust have missed Bevo’s edict from on high that there is no sense in answering “rhetorical questions”. I give you high credit for (1) understanding that Bevo is full of himself and (2) for having the courage to tackle the questions. You realize, I assume, that I disagree with most of your answers, But, as a reward for having the courage of your convictions, I am going to let you off the hook this time.

Bevo’s edict from on high that there is no sense in answering “rhetorical questions”. Correct. By their very definition, there is no point in it. It's akin to reading Shakespeare to a mule.
