December 21, 20241 yr Jeeze!!! We are playing in our house against an opponent that has lost to the only 3 good teams they faced...and some folks are still worried

December 21, 20241 yr I see that SMU first down in other teams territory playcalling is looking strikingly similar to Sark first down in other teams territory playcalling

December 21, 20241 yr Now do Ole Miss instead of SMU and Bama instead of IU. How much better would those games have been?
December 21, 20241 yr Why have we not seen a replay of the roughing the passer even with a timeout? wtf tnt
December 21, 20241 yr SMU running backs have left a lot of yards on the field because they just won't fucking go.

December 21, 20241 yr SMU and Indiana are trash and shouldn't have been in the playoff. This will help for when they are selecting teams for next year.
December 21, 20241 yr Clemson's QB1 finally makes a play. Clemson really should have gone to Arch Manning way back in the first quarter.

This happens everytime some non-helmet school gets blown out. Suddenly no upsets have ever happened in the history of CFB have ever happened ever and nobody who is not a helmet team should be forbidden from ever getting a chance. Very much just ignoring history.

The whole point of expanding the playoff was to give fringe teams and G5 schools a chance to stop bitching. Let’s now knee jerk to only helmet schools getting in, cuz history (n of 2). Might as well just go back to 4 at that point.

We shouldn't let on obvious pretenders because they played a trash schedule. If you SOS its horrific and you don't pass the eye test, you're out.

For a team with 3 losses including Vanderbilt and a 6-6 OU where they got held to 3 points.

This is why we need to go to 16 teams, no byes and no conference championship games. This would still allow “fringe” teams to get in but more importantly, it would allow more “deserving” teams to also get in. This is the way.

December 21, 20241 yr Just now, heso said: There were no “deserving” teams that got left out. Not one. You have not been paying very close attention have you ? The committee would choose the best twelve teams (or 16 if expanded) regardless of conference bullshit.

Should have been 8 with no stupid byes and fuck Notre Dame because fuck Notre Dame, this ain't 1950, join a conference.

December 21, 20241 yr I think 12 teems is too many as well, but the reality is we are in a new era of college football. All the things we used to love and what separated the college and pro game are mostly gone.

The committee would choose the best twelve teams (or 16 if expanded) regardless of conference bullshit. My stance is that I don’t give a fuck who gets left out at 13-16. They didn’t deserve to be there and they aren’t going to go on a run. If that’s SMU, or bama, or SC, or ole miss, or Miami. I don’t give a fuck because they showed multiple times how flawed they are. 12 is fine because you get the top 3-4 teams from the big ten and sec. And you get the winner of the next 3 best conferences. Beyond that I don’t give a fuck. They just need to seed without having to be a conference champion so that asu and bsu aren’t pushed into the quarterfinals for winning a shit conference. Edited December 21, 20241 yr by heso
