    Just dont get CFB rankings

    I’ll ask you the same question since you believe (or agree) resume means nothing. If Bama’s WR had come down out of bounds last week at Auburn, would you still be advocating them to be ahead of FSU? Surely one play out of thousands in the season wouldn’t be the difference between them being...

    Audition? At least we’re using words that go with what college football really is. Theatre. It’s not really a full sporting competition. More like figure skating with judges and costumes and pageantry. I remember when people used to brag about how important every game was. Now it’s “every game...

    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.

    I hope Michigan wins it all. This “sport” deserves to have its biggest cheats crowned champions. Would be fitting.

    There will be bitching, just like with bubble teams in March Madness. It fills some tv time. As with the basketball, nobody will really care about the bubble teams.

    No. This is where ND not playing a CCG would/should hurt them. Why should they get in over a 12-0 Georgia that had to play an extra game against a great team. I’m good with staying independent but it does come at a cost in certain scenarios.

    Their back up should be back, correct?

    It finally happened but the idea of a 4 team playoff with 5 Power conferences was flawed. Someone is losing out that deserves to battle for a title. Glad this insanity is coming to an end.

    And that’s a more balanced opinion than most. I personally disagree and think FSU should get in as I place more value on “deserving” than “eye test”. It’s hard to go undefeated in college football. They won a Power 5 conference championship and scheduled and beat two SEC blue bloods out of...

    Ok. One more. Do you think that 11-2 Bama team would beat FSU? Or would that one play have swung who the actual better team was?

    That’s not the question. If they didn’t and everything played out exactly the same, would you put a 11-2 Bama in over a 13-0 FSU? Would 1 play out of 2000 change your “eye test” of Bama.

    The problem with the “eye test” is where does it end. If Bama had lost last week because the wide receiver came down out of bounds on 4th and 31, would you still put them in over FSU? If not, why? It’s only one play out of a couple thousand. Surely that one play wouldn’t change Bama’s overall...

    Would be funny if they put Bama in over FSU because of the injured quarterback and then Milroe has a season ending injury in practice. Would they then give it back to FSU because we saw what a shitshow Bama’s offense looked like with their backups?

    That’s really not true though. If the guy on Bama catches that ball against Auburn (4th and 31) and his toe is barely out of bounds, then we’re not having this conversation. Bama could have beat Georgia by 30 yesterday and nobody would be saying they should get in. Results matter. Losses matter...

    Oh shit, you’ve convinced me. Some guy named SEC Chuck and another who writes for AL.com think the SEC teams should be in the playoff. Just flip a fucking coin between Bama and Georgia to see who gets the NC trophy. We can wrap this season up tomorrow and get back to the portal.

    imagine how history would be different if the NFL acted this way. “If New England had Bledsoe then they would be in, but they don’t, they have some Brady kid. It sucks but that’s the harsh reality.

    And undefeated trumps a team with a loss. Records matter, especially against a Power 5 schedule. FSU earned it by going 13-0.

    I think this is something we can all agree on. F Michigan.
