December 3, 20232 yr 15 minutes ago, Hondo said: If they were looking to avoid criticism, "We put in the 3 undefeated P5 conference champs and then the 1-loss P5 conference champ that beat the other 1-loss P5 conference champ by multiple scores, on the road, by running the ball for 7:00 straight and ending the game in victory formation on their opponent's field" would have done the trick. Alabama/SEC would have whined because "We're the SEC and we're Alabama", but nobody else would have batted an eye. Except ESPN...which is why they fucked FSU. You do that and you punish Alabama for scheduling and losing a tough OOC. If that happens every major program in the nation should immediately cancel any quality OOC game because you’re basically saying you no credit for them. Putting Texas and Alabama avoids that scenario, and only opens them to the new world order that SEC/B1G teams will get in over ACC/B12 teams with a better record, and that they will take major injuries into account when seeding the playoffs going forward. It’s harsh, and unprecedented, but overall it’s the best path forward. If we had a 12 team playoff this year, would FSU even be in the top 6? I think they’d be behind UGA and tOSU at a minimum.
December 3, 20232 yr I think we look better in whites than in the burnt orange jerseys. If we added a burnt orange stripe(s) to the pants, they'd look even better (no need with the orange jerseys though).
December 3, 20232 yr Sorry @Deej, I couldn't resist giving the new 8-rep cycle. I'll offset on other posts.

December 3, 20232 yr Would have rather seen FSU instead of Bama because, well, fuck Bama. But I understand the reasoning for making Bama the #4 team. I will root for Michigan to beat Bama. And then Texas to mudhole Michigan in the NCG.Fuck Michigan. Hope Saban rawdogs fuckibg Harbaugh and sends his sorry ass home. Texas Bama rematch will be epic.
December 3, 20232 yr Popular Post Of course they won't come out and say it but the real reason FSU was left out is because the committee was just as tired of hearing that war chant as everybody else.

Oh, trust me, I had to think long and hard about whether I really want to root for cheating Meatchicken and that sack of shit Harbaugh. And a Texas-Bama rematch *would* be epic. But I just can't bring myself to root for Alabama under the circumstances -- they're so fucking lucky to be in. First, Auburn's d-coordinator completely loses his mind on 4th and 31, and then the Committee decides to screw over FSU rather than risk the wrath of the SecSecSec. Maybe I'll just root for a meteor instead . . .

December 3, 20232 yr I was joking. Sorta. Of course they wanted FSU, who wouldn’t? They got turbo fucked, I’d be most pissed if I was on that defense. Who’s to say they couldn’t shut down Michigan’s offense, give their offense some short fields and win a game 16-13? I think it was a terribad decision. Especially with the escape job Bama had against Auburn, you can’t say they are some juggernaut team right now.

December 3, 20232 yr We are the team out of the 4 that are in that concern the others the most. And for good reason.

December 3, 20232 yr Michigan and Texas would have insane ratings as well. Texas/Bama matchup may mean a lot of Big 10 country tunes out. Texas/Michigan attracts everyone. Both Big 10 fans that want to beat the "south" and Big 10 haters/rivals that want to see Mich fail. Same story the other way. We would get a lot of casual support and casual haters tuning in to see us as well. I think all four teams are pretty close and expect good games regardless of matchup combinations

December 3, 20232 yr Some Tostitos marketing executives are looking at that game and asking "what am I supposed to do to market THIS?!?!"
December 3, 20232 yr And I'm not sure two schools could be culturally farther apart than Oregon and Liberty. It's glorious

December 3, 20232 yr Texas is extremely well-positioned -- couldn't ask for a more fortuitous set up... UW is solid and the best passing threat we'll face, but they'll be traveling ~2,500 miles to face what'll be an overwhelmingly pro-Texas crowd in the Superdome... The winner of Michigan / Bama would then have to face Texas 7 days after their semi in Pasadena in Houston (our backyard)... With the 12 team playoff introducing more variables, this is likely the best shot we will have at a title...
December 3, 20232 yr If DKR were alive today he'd say "First, Alabama has to lose twice." What a joke

Doing her best to look like she gives a shit, hiding the fact that she was calculating how many destination vacations we could've had as a family if not for the years of games and donations, fearing my return to being a godawful wreck as I was '03-'11. Hiding it all and humoring me. Can't ask for more than that.
