I'll put up a post season poll after the dust settles. But here in my eyes, we're about to decide a National Champion baby.

It's time to set up the coaching carousel! P4 head coaching jobs will probably be very sparse this year, as athletic departments will be on the hook to pay players and are apparently no longer willing to pay the monstrous buyouts that many of their coaches have. But there may still be plenty of action in the Group of 5 (and among coordinators). Here's the current list of FBS HC moves (I'll update it as it spins along):

  • App State: ~~Shawn Clark~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Ball State: ~~Mike Neu~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Central Michigan: ~~Jim McElwain~~ (retired) replaced by OPEN
  • Charlotte: ~~Biff Poggi~~ replaced by OPEN
  • East Carolina: ~~Mike Houston~~ replaced by Blake Harrell (ECU DC & interim HC)
  • FAU: ~~Tom Herman~~ replaced by Zach Kittley (Texas Tech OC)
  • FIU: ~~Mike MacIntyre~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Fresno State: ~~Jeff Tedford~~ (resigned in off-season) replaced by OPEN
  • Kennesaw State: ~~Brian Bohannon~~ replaced by Jerry Mack (Jacksonville Jags RBs, Tennessee RBs, NC Central HC)
  • North Carolina: ~~Mack Brown~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Purdue: ~~Ryan Walters~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Rice: ~~Mike Bloomgren~~ replaced by Scott Abell (Davidson HC)
  • Sam Houston: ~~K.C. Keeler~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Southern Miss: ~~Will Hall~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Temple: ~~Stan Drayton~~ replaced by K.C. Keeler (Sam Houston HC, Delaware HC)
  • Tulsa: ~~Kevin Wilson~~ replaced by OPEN
  • UCF: ~~Gus Malzahn~~ replaced by OPEN
  • UMass: ~~Don Brown~~ replaced by OPEN
  • Utah State: ~~Blake Anderson~~ replaced by OPEN
  • West Virginia: ~~Neal Brown~~ replaced by OPEN

Other notes: A lot of "hot seats" (e.g. Arkansas, Baylor, Florida, ~~West Virginia~~) probably cooled off by winning enough games. ~~Mack Brown at UNC claims he's not retiring.~~ Deion Sanders at CU claims he does not intend to go to the NFL.

Admittedly, the middle portion of a Venn Diagram with fedi users and cfb fans is about the size of a mosquito dick. But by golly we have fun with it, and we're going to try and promote some engagement. Last year was more or less our first year, but everyone knows that it's really years kinda 2-4 where a program's identity really gets defined. In an effort to try and make this second year a growth year for us c/cfb is running a CFP bracket prediction contest to help encourage some users to come out of the woodwork and join our small community in earnest. Details about the contest can be found below (copied straight from the details on the submission form, which can also be found below)

Rules:

Bracket predictions are due BEFORE the first official cfp ranking (7:00 pm EST 11/05), so you need to be able to predict some chaos for best results.

To be eligible to win you must submit at least 3 ballots in the weekly polls (can be done after the CFP rankings are unveiled, but still must be done before the conference championships). Users interested in wining the contest should be sure to post proof of ballots in the form of a comment on the weekly poll posts.

Contestants will be awarded 1 point for each team they correctly predict making it into the CFP, and 3 points for every team they correctly seed.

As it stands, I am planning on just the seeding being the competition, correctly predicting the first round may be used as a tie breaker if the need arises.

Awards:

  • 1st - $100 gift card to online retailer of the user's choice
  • 2nd - $50 gift card to online retailer of the user's choice
  • 3rd - $25 gift card to online retailer of the user's choice

Florida State was left out of the playoffs last year because one player was out. If Ohio State players get suspended for attacking the Michigan players after the game, should they also be left out of the playoffs? Some of the players involved were significant starters.

Jumbotron operator was on it. This is like a corporate cynical update to the band reaction time video from The Kick 6.

Some of the younger folks won't understand this vibe, but older folks know what an exhausting beatdown they're in for if Florida goes from mildly surprising to consistently good. Our entire cultural DNA is based on a man who's basically a hillbilly Bugs Bunny.
