I was told he couldn't win a big game. Even though he's won a rose bowl and 2 other BCS games

Surely you understand that bowl games don’t mean nearly as much as they used to, right?

He gets the Mack Brown treatment.

It is a big win. His problem is he can’t get the big win in conference play.

A big win means a top 5 opponent imo

SMU isnt even a top 10 team

3-17 against top 10 opponents in his career.

Penn St has resources and fan support - go look at his record against Michigan and Ohio St. Since he's been there, those two schools widened the gap between themselves and Penn St.

People that cheer for this idiotic playoff make me think of this:

Didn’t he coach his players to hide a rape they did?

He’s been gifted the easiest path to the final 4

Call this game “big” or not, his real test starts in the semi

No he needs to win a game he’s not supposed to win

So that will be in the semis

Still does not feel like a big win. Needs to win a game against a team with equal or better talent. Next week would be a big win for him

A win is a win. I just don’t see his offense beating one of the CFP favorites.

Don’t worry about these guys, he’s won the games he had before him and gonna be one of the top 4.

Win and they will find something to bitch about.

Lose and he will still not won a “big” game.


Kinda like Ryan Day- been quite this week on him, now if he loses tomorrow, holy shite.
