This season was a giant prick tease. So close to absolute chaos on more occasions than I can count just to have the favorite pull the win out of their arse at the very end.

As an FSU fan, no way. This has been a roller coaster ride. As for overall, sure. Jayden Daniels in no way deserves the Heisman in most years but he is about to win it. It’d help if chalk didn’t win out all year

2007 was the GOAT season.

I think 2008 may be my 2nd favorite just because of how many great teams there were. Watching that Florida team, the Oklahoma offense, the USC defense, etc.

None of these were upsets.


On the basis of what, your feelings? Pretty sure LSU was favored in two of the three.

1990 was bland I thought.

But but but, the integrity of the regular season! It’s so much fun watching similar combinations of the same 5-6 teams + random flavor of the year in the CFP every year.

As per usual, fans will need to be dragged kicking and screaming into what will wind up being a much better and more entertaining way to determine a champion.

2007 was definitely wild and chaotic, but two of the preseason favorites who were picked to win it all ultimately made it to the national championship game. It was a wild and wacky season that got us to what we all kind of expected.

1990 on the other hand was wild and chaotic, and two teams that absolutely no one had on their radar ended up winning the whole thing. Colorado was at least a preseason Top 5 team going into the season. Georgia Tech on the other hand? They weren't even ranked.

Other than Colorado story beginning of the year, there isn’t much memorable on a national level.

In hindsight, it would have been more polarizing if Colorado kept winning. But the general consensus was to pull against them.

With there seemingly being no dominant team this season, I expected a lot more carnage like 2007. Definitely disappointed. The 12 team playoff would be awesome for this year though.

2018 was the GOAT season. First ever 15-0 team, Clemson absolutely destroys Bama in the CFB final to achieve that historic 15-0 first.

The Mountain West had complete carnage unfold this year. The Sun Belt was also spicy. ACC was spicy.

The other leagues all went how I thought they would.

Saturday was great, but rivalry week usually is. This season consistently went according to chalk. Texas beating Alabama was pretty surprising, and Mizzou having 10 wins was a fun story, but overall, the season was very by-the-numbers.

Best thing about this year was watching Jayden Daniels. I never thought I would see another player like prime Michael Vick, let alone one starting for LSU. It was awesome to watch.

UGA looks pretty damn dominant to me.
