Some people here still think G5 deserves an autobid. Wild.

It was a down hear for G5. Boise was at least respectable

It is painfully obvious that Texas and Notre Dame being in these games would have made a much better product. Whatever it is we are doing it’s broken.

Oregon is already ahead 14-0 and it's 45 minutes before kickoff.

Could Oregon still win if you spotted JMU a 35-0 lead to start?

I mean, if you spotted them 35-0 and halftime, maybe they could hold on for two quarters?

Agree, but the only real solution is to tell anybody not in the P4 to fuck off unless you have a team ranked in the top 12(and probably Notre Dame that they ahem need to join one of those P4 conferences). They won't, though and I suspect that will eventually lead to the SEC and B1G telling them all to fuck off and going and doing their own NFL style thing.

Gotta be equitable. Gotta give everyone a shot to get in fuck merit right   ND Texas even vandy makes this a game

Yes. They would make it a game within a game. They would get it done in the first half

I'm not sure that the JMU game will be worse. They were better than Tulane this season. Tulane was easily the most overrated team in the CFP rankings if you compare to solid computer systems.

Now that doesn't mean that it won't get ugly, but JMU was the better team this season of those two.

I didn't mind Boise St making it. But they got a bye, which was pretty ridiculous. No G5 team should ever be getting a bye in a 12 team playoff. Give them a home game in the 1st rd. Texas deserved a bye last year much more than Boise.

When the commentators have resorted to explaining anti trust lawsuits to the audience to make excuses for why they have been subjected to this circus, you know you have lost the plot. This is pathetic.

No guarantee at all for any G5 team. Period. They have to be selected in on their own merit. I don’t even want to talk about a fucking G5 team unless they are undefeated and they beat a legit P4 team in their non conference. 

#120

You could have another rule: If, during the season, your conference champion didn't play (closely) a team ranked in the Top Ten at the end of the season, then the five conference rule doesn't apply to your conference.

Does aggy count as a legit P4 school? Asking for a friend

#122

I have a degree from Tulane and still can’t watch the game.

#123

Part of the problem is that when they were concocting the rules for this shit and came up with the 5 highest rated conference champion autobid rule there were....5 "Power" conferences

Iowa and Michigan make it a game, too.

And the fact no one in here is even discussing the game, says all that needs to be said. Nothing for even the tv talking heads to discuss. Just a terrible matchup.

Wish broadcasters would call out the bs of having Tulane and jmu in playoffs. This is painfully clear no auto bids. I'm not opposed to going to top 8 teams. With to much $$$ involved it won't happen.

#130

If and monumental Santa is real if.  JMU wins over Oregon the playoffs will be forever fucked because that one time.   But Oregon is gonna butt fuck them

Boise state didn’t need an autobid to get in. I was fine with that.

#136

Fantastic work as always, CFP committee. Unwatchable garbage ass game - and the next one will be even worse 

#139

Fun tune up game for Mississippi. Oregon’s tune up game is next. Fuck this stupid ass college football committee. Just wasting everyone’s time with these games.

I predict that they'll change the selection rules for next year. You heard it here first.


Well, they can’t keep a 3 loss tOSU out. They had a tough schedule.

Jesse Palmer was rambling about cutting it down to only one non-P4 qualifier but that the one team that deserved to be it was Tulane….as Tulane was down 38 in the game he was calling.
