So now we can prepare to move on, watch 30+ bowl games that don’t matter, don’t reflect the teams that made it there.

How did we end up with a 4 team playoff? Deserving undefeated teams being left out of the BCS championship. The playoff system created was still designed to leave out a potential deserving team (4 spots, 5 P5 champs). So next year we have a 12 team....which just moves the controversy to probably 11 though 14.

Also, on resume, Washington should be #1, but here we are.

Every year I inch closer to giving up on college football. There is a reason I don’t watch NFL football and I am starting to have a hard time finding a difference anymore.
Just wait until we're 10-2 and left out of a 12 team playoff.

I for one am more than ready to get back to focusing on ND, resolving the assistant coach situations (known and unknown), play the transfer portal, and pretend to care about a bowl game that doesn’t matter past the extra practices.

While I feel very bad for them, I don’t know how anyone is upset FSU is out. They are not the same team. Without Jordan Travis they would be a 3 loss team. This is one of the determining factors. Current team would struggle to beat against anyone in the top 10.

What other teams in the country manage to win with their 2nd/3rd string QB?

The only reason Milroe is starting for Bama is because they suck ass. They benched him and the others were worse.

There is controversy about the NCAA tournament "bubble" teams, too, but those are not championship teams, typically. The odds of leaving out of the best team when you take 12 rather than 4 are much lower.

To be honest, my feelings on that matter have little to do with ND.
I'm with ya. Until they create a NCAA Officiating crew that has zero affiliations with any certain conference or team, NCAA Football will continue to be like watching WWE with Vince calling the shots from the boothe.

It's definitely gotten outta hand, yet we're all like Racehorses running around the track with blinders on,... No Look straight ahead. Don't look at that obvious stuff on the sidelines....

I watch College over NFL until this point. Once the voting begins, I tune out and start watching the pros. I’m a simpleton who thinks wins and losses matter. I’m also old enough to have witnessed quite a few Super Bowls and NCs won with backup quarterbacks.

They do matter a little bit. Young guys get some much needed playing time. And in our case they get the opportunity to get 10 wins.

For those of you who think FSU got robbed, watch the Orange Bowl in four weeks and you'll see why the committee left them out.

Does anyone know what the actual goal is of the CFP committee? Are they supposed to take the 4 best or is it up to them to just pick who they think deserves to be in? I’m guessing within that framework lies the answer to what they’re supposed to do.
Their job is now officially "eye test" and record in the field be damned

Bama fans always show their true colors. Ban this trash
Someone ban this guy who wants to ban the Bama fans.

We all want Michigan to lose in the worst fashion. Michigan would've steamrolled FSU in their current state. Let's hope for Bama to dismantle UM so the NCAA can finalize their ruling and may the best team win between UW and UT. I have no idea who I'd pick. Both teams look capable of scoring a lot of points.

I just need to see Michigan piss their pants in prime time.
