ND getting love because they got jobbed by SEC refs at the end of the aggy game.
You know, I’d almost rather see 5 SEC bids than the annual coronation of the Irish

Just flip ‘em.
If Tech had played Texas’ schedule and vise versa what would the two teams records be?
I think Tech could’ve equaled what Texas has done and I think Texas could’ve gone 9-0 with Tech’s (Tech should have done so too) but for arguments sake let’s say an injury led to Texas dropping the ASU game
Having said that, NO ONE would be politicking that a 9-3 Tech would deserve a bid
And NO ONE would be saying an 11-1 Texas team wasn’t a lock win or lose the CCG
And that’s the rub.
We can argue strength this and schedule that but at the end of the day the helmet logos still matter - a lot
And I think 4 bids vs 2 bids makes that statement and acknowledges that tradition.
But 5 bids to 1 bid just seems like overkill.
It’s not like there’s zero recent history of the BIG12 doing damage in the playoffs with their 1 bid - hello Michigan

I don’t think it’s a guarantee, but if the BYU tech loser has two losses and doesn’t get absolutely blasted in the title game they are likely in.
Utah has absolutely no right to claim a spot with no good wins and that dog shit schedule though.
Yeah, I’m not talking about teams with 2 reg season losses prior to the CCG
I’m talking about the CCG loss being the 2nd loss
BYU and Tech are the only two that can finish 11-1
If Tech loses on Sat, they’re done. It’ll be their 2nd conf loss and in a multiple 2 loss team tie-breaker scenarios, they come up short

Utah could go 10-2 with its best win against a 3 or 4 loss ASU team who didn’t have its backup QB.
Assuming BYU goes 10-2 losing the most likely games, they’ll have a win over a 3 loss fringe top 25 Utah team and no other decent wins.
If Tech loses to BYU, it will end season with 2 wins over fringe ranked teams in the best of scenarios.
You can see where the skepticism comes from if you take off the Yormark goggles.
BYU is currently undefeated
They and Tech could both finish 11-1
This thread is claiming the loser of their rematch is not worthy of the CFP

Well byu and tech have horrendous schedules. The conference sucks and they both played nobody out of conference.
Yep that’s what everyone likes to tell themselves.
And it’s why the early season polls are bullshit because they are 100% based on what people think would happen in imaginary games not actual results - see 0-2 top10 Notre Dame

Yet it’ll be the case. A 2 loss Big 12 team won’t be in the playoffs unless they’re a top 10 team going into the conference champ game(like SMU last year)
Yes, I know. It’s bullshit!
Can’t take a single 2 loss Big12 team but we can take multiple 2 loss teams from BIG and SEC
Tech, Utah, and BYU are all good enough to equal the results of all those 2 loss SEC teams
But we are told they aren’t good enough to prove it on the field (in the CFP)

Looking like
Acc - GT or VirginiaBig 10 - OSU, Oregon, Indiana
Big 12 - cluster fuck but likely 1 team
Notre Dame
so 6 spots for SEC + G5. and based off current rankings I don’t think it’s ridiculous to say 5 SEC teams should get in. Acc being an absolute dumpster fire is helping us a lot.
5 SEC teams is only ridiculous when in conjunction with only 1 team Big12 - especially if there are multiple 11 win teams
I don’t like making these discussions about Tech as I want there to be equity across the board. But in this case, I am gonna use the Tech example.
Tech is 8-1 with all 8 wins by more than 20 points. The lone loss was on the road with an injury plagued team.
And it’s being said that if they lose the conference championship game, they’re out.That’s bullshit.

I mean, if you're going to watch in ultra slow motion and still be unreasonable get rid of it. It just slows the games.
It’s absolutely ridiculous

I know Tech can still win B12 - by elimination I mean for the league
Zero chance now to get 2 playoff teams
All the other leagues have multiple mulligans

Shouldn’t be an elimination game but it is

Turnover needed in a bad way

I haven't attended any games yet this year but I can say for a fact that during the most recent prior seasons they were throwing puppies
(with *possible* home playoff games on the horizon, this tortilla nonsense has turned into a very big deal - $100k fine per incident!!)

There's a lot of cringe moments in the show but my daughter and I are still enjoying it.
However, the new Eli's Places episode in which Eli visits with Powell about the show is much funnier

Wow. Cats drop the game winner

Oh I don’t disagree in that context, and it is stupid to drop Georgia all the way from 3 to 10 while moving Bama way up from 17-11…when you could easily flip them. That’s kind of ridiculous honestly.
if they had dropped Georgia to 8 and bama up to 11 it would make more sense.
I could not disagree more. The rank prior to yesterday should not matter at all. Bama beat Georgia. Since their records are identical, we need no other data. I don’t need a poll to tell me who the better team is - I saw it with my own eyes.
And I see that the AP poll did get it right. My initial response was to the posted poll with UGA still at 10

I am not complaining about 7 at all. Feel like we can’t really be higher based on our offense alone and schedule…
but I’ll be honest, I’m not sure a Penn St resume is any better and should have fallen behind
They lost at home. Yes it was OT and e Top 5 matchup. But Texas lost to the team that’s been #1 since our game on the road by 1 score.
yes our offense hasn’t been good but OSU hasn’t really struggled a whole game against anyone else.
in the end it doesn’t really matter and if we win the next two weeks we’ll probably move up anyways.
Yes it matters.
And it’s all bullshit. These rankings now fuel the arguments for multiple teams from same conferences come playoff time.
Georgia and Alabama both have 1 loss. If playoffs were today, Georgia would have a better seed.
Now, I understand that the playoffs don’t start today. And that the AP poll is not the CFPC. But the mindset is the same. And it bothers me to be told that philosophies and mindsets things will change come playoff time when it really matter and things will work themselves out. No! Philosophies shouldn’t change. That’s the mindset that drives me crazy. -

So based on this metric then, the Big12 should be the league with 3 bids and the BIG only 1
But I’m sure that’s not what you are saying
