Coming into today I was thinking a VA win would be part of our best case scenario. That might still be true, but right now by heart is saying screw VA, screw Duke, screw Miami x100, screw the ACC, screw ESPN and let the committee (ESPN’s puppets I know) figure out who gets the #10 spot behind ND. Fanduel probably has me more confident than I should be lol. O and screw the Miami dipshit fans and supporters as well.

Incredibly impressed how IU has made them look mortal. They’re for real. Could use some additional playmakers tho.

Greg from ISD made a point I agree with that if Duke wins, the committee would put Miami in so the ACC doesn't get shut out.

Now, what the committee should do is put ND and Miami win and bump Bama out, but I have no faith in them doing the right thing.
This is literally only coming from ND sources though. I have not see anyone suggest this anywhere else. Anything is possible with incompetent people running the show, but I've never been a big believer in this conspiracy. The ACC has been fucked over in a far more egregious manner just 2 years ago and they didn't do shit.

(For the record, I felt then and now the committee made the right call leaving FSU out, but can acknowledge it was an unprecedented move to leave a P5 undefeated winner out of the playoffs.)

Mendoza must be banged up some. To not even try to get down field with 2 timeouts and 26 seconds

DeB made a very nervous sounding pitch in his press conference. He only argument is SEC and conference finals should not count.

McIlroy just made the same comment right before half of the ACC game. I guess ESPN has updated their talking notes since the SEC game.

Urban Meyer literally just saying Bama should t get penalized for a 21 point loss made him irrelevant to me. I just shouted “then penalize them for losing to Florida State!”

You cannot penalize Bama.

OK.

You cannot penalize BYU then.

I said it Tuesday when the rankings were released. It set up perfectly in that as long as the games played out similarly, which they did, it would test every fabric of logic to not treat them similarly.
Somewhat inconveniently for us, the committee’s threshold for a blowout is 24 points but I think anyone watching that game would recognize it as a blowout with Georgia basically just opting to chew up the fourth quarter.
