The Most Confusing Losses Of the '24 Football Season

[@TheRealAsriel]

I think the OU Bama 3-24 loss should be at least an honorable mention, I remember seeing that score and it just being the strangest thing to me

[@ethansprague2005]

Especially since Oklahoma was getting steam rolled by the rest of the sec that whole year

[@TheRealAsriel]

I checked that score 4 times before I was 100% sure it wasn't a typo or I was reading it backwards lol

[@392Joel]

I mean Alabama is 1-4 the last 5 times they’ve played Oklahoma. OU is a blue blood program but had major injury problems this year. When they beat Alabama their first 5 starting WR’s were out and 4 starting Offensive linemen

The best part about the Notre Dame loss is that it is probably the best thing that ever happened to that team. The ferocity that they played with after that loss was something that I think only comes with losing to a team like NIU.

[@hayden-ketchup-gruhnd1497]

As a ND fan I think this loss was exactly what we needed for sure, we needed that loss to really fuel the fire and steamroll our opponents going forward. Had we of won I think there would have been a lot more pressure on us needing to go undefeated an we'd end up losing games later in the season and maybe not even making the CFP

[@coltonhuston1062]

@ I’m an ND fan too. I think the dominance of every game since NIU comes from the fact that they know they weren’t playing to their standard of football. I hope Freeman uses this as a lesson going forward for a long time

Nebraska had much harder competition that colorados big 12 competition. Nebraska would be in colorados spot if they were in the big 12

[@aaronsams8605]

@2pacman401 I heard Texas was a huge part of the reason Nebraska wanted out, and now Texas has left for the SEC

[@timebomb42]

@aaronsams8605...... Josh Pate did a video on that subject a long time ago, from what I could gather, Oklahoma and Texas were getting ready to head for the pac-12. And with Missouri and a&m also threatening to leave, it seemed as if the Big 12 was going to collapse, so Nebraska wanted to make sure they had a landing spot. Ultimately the four teams (colorado, Texas a&m, missouri, nebraska.) ended up jumping ship anyway only for the texas-oklahoma pac-12 deal to fall through due to the longhorn Network. Texas and Oklahoma ultimately leave for the SEC in the end...... And that's how a conference loses most of its historically dominant teams.

[@theohalloran8601]

Michigan osu should be at least an honorable mention. Like going into that game osu was favored to win the natty and Michigan had losses to Washington, Illinois, and also lost to Indiana who osu destroyed

[@huntertrum3658]

The entire SEC this year was confusing. Bama beats Georgia. So they're top dogs right? No, they lose to Vandy. We'll, Vandy is good then! Nope, they're average. Then what about Georgia? Oh yeah, they beat Texas, but lost to Ole Miss. Then the Rebels must be the best team, right? Nah, they lost to Kentucky and LSU. The Tigers? Blown out by A&M and company. The Aggies? Lost to South Carolina. And it just keeps going! What a regular season it's been.

Don’t forget about Florida being terrible then turning it around and looking pretty decent!! Wild year it was

[@huntertrum3658]

​@@nicholasrichardson8625 as a LSU fan, believe me, I did not forget about Florida🥲

[@Joe.H.]

Nah I don't think it's that confusing really. Teams in the SEC have a lot of talent. Some of these games had rivalry mentality. Georgia got bama and ole miss' best game. Kiffin even mentioned dedicating a portion of practice every day to beating Georgia all season. You can put everything into beating a particular team but only a good team/ program can dominate everyone on their schedule. The aggies lost to scar because scar has a good team and didn't put it all together until the end of the season. Not that the transitive property matters in cfb but scar also beat Clemson, which is currently in the playoffs. I believe if you put ole miss in the mountain west, bama in the big12 and south Carolina in the acc then all of those teams would be in the playoffs right now. Vandy had a great unexpected season too. Bama is riding on talent alone at the moment. Coaching is subpar. Bama is on the decline. Might take years to see it though

[@IanUtter-e2x]

@@Joe.H.I agree it may not be clear now but yeah Bamas decline after ruling this sport for a decade and a half is just slowly beginning. You beat Georgia but then you lose to Vanderbilt and you lose to a 6-6 Oklahoma team so yeah it’s the beginning of the end for Alabama dominance. Maybe they’ll be in slow decline and realize they were that good because of Saban. It took forever for the other team who dominated football for a decade or 2 which was the Patriots to realize they were only that good because of you know who. So yeah just like the Patriots it’ll be a slow decline and then come into realization. But also don’t forget it was basically this new reality of college football that pretty much drove him out and now Dabo Swinney and Lane Kiffin are the only few coaches left who’ve been coaching since the BCS era so yeah all the teams who’ve been dominating since then are slowly on the decline and headed for strange directions. But yeah because of this new reality that’s pretty much what’s happening

[@Joe.H.]

@IanUtter-e2x yeah. For what it's worth bama being on the "decline" is relative. They had set the bar as high as you can. They aren't going anywhere and as a Georgia fan I never want to play them again lol but I dont think they will ever repeat what they've managed to accomplished to date. Not in my lifetime

[@kingonipaayt3045]

I think an honorable mention goes to Kansas as well. They basically looked lifeless all year but ended the year by essentially knocking out 3 of the 4 big 12 playoff contenders in consecutive weeks. Prior to those wins, there was a shot that the big 12 could somehow get 2-3 teams into the playoffs, but now they’re looking at their conference champ likely getting the lowly 12th seed barring a unlv upset

[@hayden-ketchup-gruhnd1497]

Kansas was supposed to be a really solid ranked team this year so the ranked wins make sense, but the losses are still such a surprise for me.

[@kingonipaayt3045]

@@hayden-ketchup-gruhnd1497 Yeah the Big 12 as a whole this year was so weird. You could argue that OSU, Kansas, Kansas St., Utah, and Arizona comprised the preseason top 5 Big 12 teams and literally all of them would fall out of that top 5 by the end of the season. Completely unprecedented imo

Maybe it’s a hot take but I think Cal is a better team than they seem at first glance. I’m not saying they’re great, and yeah, they won two conference games and lost inexplicably to Florida State (something no other FBS team accomplished this year), but five of six of their losses were one score games (including to Miami by 1 point, at Pitt-when-they-were-still-good by 2, and Syracuse by 8) the exception being on the road at SMU, which did similar things to the rest of the ACC. In early November they were 9 points from undefeated.

Explanation for NEB/CU: NEB played real competition. Also, Deion allowed Pat Shurmur to run the offense after that game, which saved Deion’s legacy. Meanwhile, NEB had leeches at OC & ST coordinator, progressively making us worse as the tape built on NEB weekly.

That Purdue game is also completely unexplainable. Card went 24-25 and ISU attempted 5 passes total and then both team played the rest of the season like that game didn’t exist.

[@zackwatson6912]

Oklahoma State is a FASCINATING team this year to me and hasn’t gotten enough coverage. As someone from the Midwest I certainly haven’t paid them enough attention. They played one of the most unbalanced conference schedules I’ve ever seen and at some point, loss after loss stacked up to break their spirits and they just gave up it seemed like. Their record does not do them justice to how close they played against all the top teams and they only played one game against a team in the bottom half of their conference

[@MrDennismcgaskey]

What are you talking about most people picked them to finish at worst 3rd so when you don’t win a conference game obviously all the teams are gonna look unbalanced. BYU was close but Utah (also picked to finish 1-3) was their lone bottom tier close loss

[@sacred_g]

Weirdest loss prediction: ND vs NIU. MAC schools were literally 0-59. They were paid millions to come play. It was literally the textbook definition of a should-win game. Edit: Being right never hurt so much. Why did ND lose that game? It's obvious. The players got rewarded for their win at A&M and slacked off for the week. No matter what anyone says. Even if physically they prepared the same as any other week, which I HIGHLY doubt is the case, mentally speaking, they were clearly checked out in that game, until it was too late.

Unranked Michigan (6-5) with a walk-on QB as their QB1 coming into Columbus as 20+ point underdogs & beating #2 Ohio State 13-10 has got to be the most confusing loss of the season.

This was Michigan’s only road win of the season. Complete head scratcher.

This is exactly why the selection committee gets torn apart based on their selection of the top 12 playoff teams. Everyone thinks they have the best answer as to why their team should be in the playoffs, but if they are all as expert as they claim to be, they should all come up with the same teams in the same slot and predict accurately the winner of each of the 11 games. But the intangibles are always lurking, So it’s really just a futile exercise. For me, I just like watching good football. But I hope there is no collapse like the Yankees in the World Series. However. I would not have expected that poor performance from such a talented team, but no one predicted that collapse.

I watched every game this season for the Huskers. They are better than what coaching allowed them to be, up until Holgerson took over as OC. They had a way more difficult schedule compared to Colorado. They rightfully beat UTEP, Colorado, and UNI. They rightfully lost to Illinois because they weren’t disciplined on defense, their penalties gave freebies to Illinois that kept putting them in position to score the entire game. They rightfully beat Purdue. The team slowed down because of bad play calling by the OC starting against Rutgers. Call that mid season slump, but there’s at least an explanation. That mid season slump from poor play calling caused us to get whooped by Indiana, but I concede we would’ve lost that game regardless. Indiana is talented this year. We should’ve beat Ohio State, even with the mid season slump. It was clear sabotage by the refs that forced Ohio State to win. Ohio State should’ve lost that game. We should’ve beat UCLA, poor play calling lost us this game. Luck won USC that game, they got a bunch of weird plays that worked out for them, but you can’t choose luck, so I concede that loss. However, with Holgerson becoming our OC, the play calling looked every bit like the early season and how we should’ve played all year. Against Wisconsin, Holgerson did the right play calling for our team, and this is what we should’ve looked like against Rutgers, Indiana, Ohio State, and UCLA. Maybe not the score, but how we played. Iowa is a well coached and disciplined team. They earned that win, even if it’s annoying as hell. At the very least, this team would’ve been 8-4 if the right play calls would’ve properly matched the talent of this team. This would’ve included wins against Colorado and Ohio State. On to next year, Holgerson is signed on for two more years, and he knows how to use Riaola better. There may have been other reasons for the slump. No disrespect meant to anybody else. I just want to leave off by knowing the team is talented, and is moving in the right direction. If nobody sees that, then hopefully they’ll see soon enough.

Nebraska fans and Falcons fans both have a very similar, very tragic thing in common
