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...

[satyanash 14637]

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

[Tired of Lurking 637]

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.

Unless WV jumps us. 

[satyanash 14637]

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.

[mdmost 43056]

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.

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.

[mdmost 43056]

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 

[Tired of Lurking 637]

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

[4th&Five 41599]

Ok. Glad I’m wrong. See y’all in Nola. 

[mdmost 43056]

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. 

[satyanash 14637]

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. 

[ATLLonghorn 857]

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.

[LonghornSean 4024]

Urban says tOSU should be in because of the emotional year they've been through.  Dear God fuck that guy

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.

[Sgt Hulk 13845]

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 

[LonghornSean 4024]

Chris Fowler on point

[satyanash 14637]

Fowler speaks the truth.

[GreenspointTexas 9683]

Yall are idiots

 

 

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

 

jfc.

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

[mdmost 43056]

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

[GreenspointTexas 9683]

Last year it was the penn state narrative. This year its georgia

 

the committee isnt that stupid

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

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.

[satyanash 14637]

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

[Tired of Lurking 637]

Rankings after the break.

[hpslugga 4062]

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.

Was that a sigh from Palmer? Must be Florida State at 4.

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?
