Who deserves to be obliterated by Alabama in the playoffs: OU or OSU?

NOQ Report Is Moving to AmericaFirstReport.com

Alabama is the best team in college football this year. They’re arguably the most storied franchise in history and this may be their best team relative to the competition in decades. Now, the fight to be the first team sacrificed at their playoff altar begins following Ohio State’s dismantling of #4 Michigan.
The Oklahoma Sooners are currently ranked 6th. They’ll likely be ranked 5th heading into conference championship week unless the selection committee decides to do some crazy calculus following #4 Michigan’s loss. That puts the Sooners in the driver’s seat to take the final spot in the playoffs because Georgia, currently 5th, will have to play Alabama in the SEC championship game.
 
This is being written a bit prematurely. It could be a moot point if either Notre Dame or Clemson lose. At the time of this writing, both are in tighter-than-expected games. If there’s a big upset, I’ll update this post.
If there’s no upset Saturday night, that leaves the Sooners and Buckeyes hoping Alabama wins next week. If they lose to Georgia, they’re almost certainly still going to get the #4 spot in the playoffs. If Georgia loses, OU and OSU will be most likely to take the 4th spot, assuming they win their championship games.
Barring an upset, who should go?

Answer: OU

Even if we give them both a fresh slate and not take into account OU being ranked four spots higher going into this weekend, the Sooner still deserve the final spot. It helps that OSU’s biggest win came in the last regular season game, while the Sooners barely escaped Morgantown with a decent win in a game that didn’t feature defense. But the whole body of work for the season favors the Sooners.
OU had the better loss. Texas beat them on a neutral field. OSU lost to unranked Purdue.
Games have been tight for both teams with OSU struggling to put away teams they should easily beat while OU’s defense proved almost as good at giving up points as their offense is at getting points. But style matters, and other than the Michigan game, OSU has struggled to make a statement even when they win.
Lastly, the prospects of a battle of the offensive titans between QBs Kyler Murray and Tua Tagovailoa cannot be overstated. Most other years either one would be a lock for the Heisman. This year, they have to face each other. Murray has slightly better statistics other than having more interceptions. Tagovailoa has been consistently awesome and hasn’t lost this year. Seeing these guys trade shots down the field will be incredible football for those who don’t like defense…
…except for the fact that Alabama has a defense. It’s one of the best in the country to go along with one of the best offenses. The Sooners are dominant on one side of the ball with the most explosive offense anyone has seen since the 2005 USC Trojans. Sadly, their best defensive game of the year was against West Virginia when they scored two touchdowns off fumbles. You know the defense is bad when they “best” game had them allowing 56 points.
Alabama looks awesome on both sides.
There’s still a full week of football and plenty of room for shakeups. Georgia could block both teams by winning. Texas could hit the Sooners for the second time this year. The committee could get creative. We’ll see who gets the nod in a week.

Yes, We Need Your Help

I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…

When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.

Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.

The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.

We currently operate:

  • NOQ Report
  • Conservative Playlist
  • Uncanceled News
  • Based Underground
  • Five other conservative news sites

I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.

For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
