Didn’t Fix have first pick on par with ABC and carried a majority of Big 12 prime time games this season vs ABC?

Yes...

  • I honestly don't care that much.  If we finish the season with a Big 12 championship and bowl win I'll feel like I've played the year with house money....

  • Different year. Same result.  It is a proven formula. Self fulfilling prophecy  1. Get as many teams ranked by “journalist” in pre-season polls “that don’t mean anything”. (This is actually

  • Texas will have a big challenge getting through OSU, Tech, ISU, and WVU. Especially if Sam is not 100%. Long way to go before worrying about a rematch with OU

Love how Herbstreit refuses to mention LSU. He won't even acknowledge that such a team exists.

Herbstreit is gonna cry today, huh?

Is it guaranteed we get Sugar Bowl if OU goes to the playoff? I need to put in my PTO.

If they’re going to keep saying the “best” and not the most deserving, why the fuck do teams even play all year? Just look at rosters and choose the 4 best teams based on talent at that point. Christ.

Wrong. If OU goes to the playoff, we are in the Sugar Bowl regardless of ranking. The Sugar Bowl has to take the Big 12 champ or runner up if the champ is gone.

Unless WV jumps us. 

We are still ahead in the AP, but I don't think that matters. I think conference rules stipulate the runner up is the Sugar selection if the champion is in the playoff.

Crepes and sushi. This is why you'll get your shit pushed in, ND.

You’re wrong colonel sanders. Big 12 does by conference standings not rankings for bowl selection 

2-loss Georgia is actually a legitimate contender over two 1-loss conference champions? Ugh, that would be such bullshit. Even UCF is more deserving of being ass-raped by Alabama.

That doesn’t matter. Wvu is already out confirmed from big 12 office. It will be championship runner up

I always love the ESPN hypocrisy. For all other conferences, the championship game is the playoff to get in. For the SEC, it's the uphill battle that shows you should belong even if you lose. 

Lol, now they're using betting lines as part of the jawja argument.

It would set such a horrible precedent. A 2-loss non-conference champion has no business in the playoff. I don’t give a shit about anything else. 

I don't know how good Clemson is. They absolutely belong in, they may be the best team, they haven't been challenged since September and played one good-ish team (A&M at A&M) that was a two point game. I just wonder how they'll play against someone good.

If it happens the Big Ten, Pac-12 and Big 12 should just break off and form their own mini tournament because the committee is saying that they don't matter.

They almost lost to Syracuse, but that was Lawrence's first start. They're humming along now and will thrash Notre Dame.

Just remember that the main argument against expanding the playoff to 8 teams is that it would "diminish the importance of the regular season. The regular season is a playoff in and of itself." Unless, of course, you are a SEC team. Then you don't have to win all of your games. Just lose the right ones and you'll be given a second chance.

the fact that they are legit trying all they can to get UGA in is saying all we need.  no need to play the season if they are predetermined   i hope a nationwide boycott happens if they get uga in 

Yall are idiots

 

 

georgia isnt getting in. They need something to talk about and get eyeballs on tvs

Hmm, I don't recall seeing any lines on ND vs the other teams.

They said nd is an underdog against all 3 of those teams

Again, how can you be a top 4 team if you lose by 20? If you lose a 14 point lead?

A unified, complete bowl protest would be awesome. This precedent effects every conference not named SEC. Lose and not drop, or move UP?!

finebaum sucks balls

PAWWWWWWWWWWWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

it's too bad OK State lost Bedlam on a missed XP (iirc). The CFP world would have been so different today. 
Not really. It would be just Ohio St instead of OU. Everything else would be the same.

Reminder that Finebaum said last year that if UCF ran the table again he would be okay with putting them in the playoff.

I like how they've managed to craft a brand new concept with this thing they like to call "the eyeball test."

There is no such fucking thing. All that shit is is "feelings, emotions and biases" wrapped up in a more technical sounding phrase so as to remove the anti-intellectual stigma that group of words conjures up.

Right, it's just like everything else with these motherfuckers. They're ok with X until they aren't.

The important thing changes on what school they want to put in. Remember when you had to win your conference so they put in tOSU over TCU?
