Who Are Your 4?

[gkIrish]

Bottom line = $$$

 

[ACamp1900]

No way in Hell is Baylor better then OSU.

Baylor is much better than OSU imo.. TCU getting shafted AGAIN!!... BS

 

[50milesSE ND]

That does not bode well for teams not playing in championship games.

Pretty much made that clear soooooo how long before we are all in with acc?

And the washington redskins will win the super bowl

I do agree with you. But the system is still not right.

 

[ACamp1900]

Think Baylor and TCU are two of the three best teams... Just me... TCU will just never get a shot, two unbeaten seasons... Nothing... Now they're not in the top four? After being number three a day ago?! Garbage, if I cared for cfb like i used to id be pretty worked up,... Instead, I'm just going to watch the NFL... And I won't watch a second of this playoff.

Lets go Oregon!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously the 3 most corrupt teams who I can't stand all get in. Here's to hoping Oregon can pull through and win it all.

Damn it. This really sucks.

This makes no sense at all. you drop TCU 2 spots because they ass hammered their opponent? You need to then drop FSU as well for squeaking by Tech.

As for what this means for ND, 12-0 and you are in, 11-1 probably in, 10-2 or less then nope.

Exactly, it's bull... At least the NFL doesn't try to pretend to be about anything other than money... tOSU might make my top ten... Maybe,... any other conference and they have four loses, just my opinion, Baylor or TCU would rock them.

Anyway, I'm out.

 

[50milesSE ND]

Listening to the speaker for committee the three teams were close to start being osu,baylor,tcu so with the last win for osu makes sense I guess.

 

[koonja]

Never been a bigger Bama fan than I will be for the next 3 weeks. I hope they dismantle OSU. Interested to hear TTT's thoughts. ROLL DAMN TIDE!

They shouldn't have been number 3 in the first place.

We need to worry about being top 15 before we worry about the playoffs.

 

[BeauBenken]

I'm hate to see two arguably deserving teams get left out, but I also smile thinking about how screwed the committee is.

No. You drop them because Baylor had a convincing win against #9 and OSU hammered a ranked team. TCUs resume didn't get worse yesterday, but Baylor and OSU had huge resume builders yesterday.

I still prefer that we're arguing over who #4 should be instead of who #2 should be. It's a better system than it used to be.

We need to worry about being top 25 before we worry about the playoffs.

FIFY

 

[BobbyMac]

If I'm Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby I'd add Rice and either Tulane, Colorado St or BYU today to qualify for a conference championship game.

 

[dang227]

I really don't see an 11-1 ND team making the playoffs in the future. Not the way we historically don't put teams away. Strength of schedule doesn't mean anything to the committee. 12-0 is going to be the only way or going to have to join a conference. Why not the Big Ten? It is absolute garbage besides OSU.

It's time for some scheduling changes at ND. We need to join the ACC and drop Navy.

Let's the neg reps fly.

I'm on board. Anything new will help.

 

[irishfan]

I can somewhat see the OSU argument, but I'd take Baylor all day over them. Sucks they didn't get in, I was fascinated to see how they'd do against Bama.

SOS is probably the main reason that Baylor didn't make it.

 

[calvegas04]

take fsu and osu out, and put baylor and TCU and it would be right

I would just play Navy week 1. We don't need to join a conference because this will expand to 6 or 8 teams very soon.

It better not expand to only 6, giving 2 teams a bye. Incredibly fair disadvantage when the difference between 1-2-3-4 is almost nothing.

And isn't this stupid 4-team thing locked in for like 12 years? Could be wrong but I thought I heard that. IDK how that works or if they're allowed to expand it.

 

[IrishinSyria]

Moving TCU up to #3 last week was beautiful trolling by the committee. It would be funny if it a) didn't suck so much for the players on TCU and BU and b) didn't look like very bad news for ND's playoff chances moving forward.

That being said, maybe the best way to think about it is the committee trying to punish the Big 12 for overtly trying to manipulate the process with their whole, we only have to declare one champion if we're not in the playoff thing.
