2024 College Football Playoffs

They don't get to pick. SEC Champion goes to the Sugar Bowl, period.

Old school bowl ties.

So is the Orange and Cotton the semis?

Right but those aren't assigned based on the historical affiliations. It's just whatever is closest to the 1 seed goes to the 1 seed's side of the bracket. Meaning Oregon to Dallas.

Lame. (I have long-standing Peach Bowl tickets I purchase annually haha)

Sure thing chubs

Seriously though, you would have had me about 3 years ago, but I've lost about 110 pounds since then. H8 2 c it 4 u.

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

SMU creeping back in.
Bye bye Bama.

If only…..

It’s an easy sell after some mental gymnastics:

SMU lost to Clemson

Clemson got dog walked by Georgia

Georgia lost to Bama

Bama claims the national championship, playoffs cancelled

ACC hasn’t called a penalty on Clemson yet.

Not necessarily how I would do it personally, but this is what I think they'll do.

What’s the best scenario?

SMU loses in OT, or SMU wins?

SMU winning does nothing for us. I think you have to hope they lose in OT and hope that Wizard is wrong and Bama gets kicked.

OT.
That would be the end of Bama.

SMU loses in OT just to force the hand of the committee as it relates to CC games and teams like Alabama.

I could also be wrong that Penn State will drop below us.

 

[NotKoon]

If SMU stalls out right here and the game ends at this score I don’t see how the committee can justify putting Bama in over them. Doesn’t mean they won’t but there’s really no justification outside of tv revenue they can even offer

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

SMU has already done enough. They’re the 11/12 seed now.

We need Clemson to hold them now.

 

[Crazy Balki]

They'd have to. ND is ahead of Ohio State and Penn State would have to fall behind Ohio State due to head-to-head.

This. If SMU barely loses it either kicks out Bama or forces the committee to admit openly they don’t give a shit who earned it or deserves it.

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

SMU should just kick the field goal to make the score closer rather than risk losing by 7.


I kid.

I would say right now even if this ACC title game ends with this result it may have accomplished this.

We know they will have no problem admitting this whole arrangement had one thing in mind:

Create a “B1G-SEC Challenge”, using geographic region rivalry as the basis of igniting fanbases to a much higher level of interest than simple bowl games ever could.

The 4 outsiders are nothing more than an annoyance that can try, but won’t, change that vision.

Alan was a 5-time (FIVE TIME) defensive player of the week. He wasn't some walk-on scrub, he was a star.

But he was getting beat like he stole something when the game was on the line, so Coach Yost put Petey in. He's better.

if scores hold, this seems fair.

 

[greyhammer90]

Fuck outta here Penn State

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

Miss the kick!!!

Except the computers ALSO say that Boise and SMU are fringe teams at best. You can't code SEC bias into the statistical models.

 

[Sea Turtle]

Clemson offense just fell off a cliff this half.

 

[irishu]

ND will be 7th seed. Play IU at home, then Georgia (w/o Beck) in second round. Fine with it
