  1. I wouldn’t like that one team would be playing in a CCG and two wouldn’t but a debate between BYU, Miami, and Texas for the final spot would be more honest than just giving it to ND
  2. I don’t share this as comparison to the BIGSEC - I share because BYU should ALREADY be ranked ahead of ND !!!! But as it stands, the only drama on CCG Saturday is the Big12 game because of BYU’s #11 rank College football is a TeeVee show and nothing more!!
  3. Guess they didn’t have room to squeeze #11 onto the graphic
  4. Here you go Texas, your reason to keep scheduling good OOC Yes, BYU has a chance to play their way in but why should they have to? Why aren’t they already on the 10 line and ND on the cut line? The difference between ND(10-2) and BYU(11-1) that has the Catholics ahead of the Mormons seems to be - ND’s LOSSES!! Keep in mind, neither of these schedules is an SEC schedule so that argument isn’t a factor 10-2 @ MIAMI (L) - #12 A&M (L) - #7 Purdue @ Arkansas Boise NCSU USC - #16 @ BC Navy @Pitt Cuse @ Stanford 11-1 Portland St Stanford @ E Carolina @ Colorado WVU @ Arizona - #18 Utah - #15 @ Iowa St @ TxTech (L) - #4 TCU @Cincy UCF ….ok, I’m a realist, it’s the sticker on the helmet that
  5. Because people keep blaming that loss on Texas being on the outside looking in? It’s not for me. It’s for everyone that seems to have forgotten it. I know that Texas was still top10
  6. Again I ask, was Texas still ranked after playing Ohio St?
  7. Was Texas ranked after the Ohio St loss? Would THAT ranking have them safely in the field?
  8. Ok. Who else? Total teams from other leagues? What’s your format?
  9. That’s why I asked the question the way I did because the Ohio St game doesn’t affect your place in the SEC standings - but the Florida loss does. Georgia, Ole Miss, and Aggy all have fewer losses OU and Bama are the same as Texas No committee. No polls. Who does SEC send to the playoffs?
  10. I agree. THAT should be the talking point. Not the Ohio St loss.
  11. Riddle me this: If there were no committee and playoff participants were sent as representatives from their conferences, would the SEC send Texas? For this discussion, poll don’t matter - just the conference representatives - and you get to pick your format - 12 teams or 16 - byes or no byes - home games or neutral - I don’t care All I want to know is the number of reps from each conference and wether or not the SEC would send Texas. If the answer is yes, then make that your argument and forget about the Ohio St loss and all the whining about not playing those games anymore and instead focus on projecting your answer to this year’s playoffs and tell me which SEC team Texas should bump.
  12. I may have missed it, but where are the Tech fans saying that the Horns don’t have a case? I think Tech fans are pushing back against the anti- Big12 narrative but not against the Horns. We’d like to see Texas get the nod over other at large teams named ND and Miami
  13. All things being equal - which they aren’t - but you gotta drop two - ND and Miami should go - BYU is at least playing in a CCG
  14. The problem is and always has been the polls - the rankings to the left of each team should not yet exist - but they make great talking points and fodder for television ratings This should be the order of SEC teams chosen for the CFP and there should be a limit on number of teams chosen. The SEC already had a playoff and this is the result The CFP is not and should not be the SEC invitational tournament The CFP committee’s lone job should be ranking/seeding said teams relative to the other conferences
  15. Yeah after a little research I dont think I’m right about it either but the question still remains, how is it calculated
  16. Is it not just the cumulative w/l record of the teams a particular school has played?
  17. I mentioned Texas in my last post, but again, I’m not arguing against Texas, It’s the biases that I don’t like - with ND being the biggest of them all. Somebody above moved the needle to games against top10 teams - don’t just pick on BYU, show the numbers for everyone. Texas Tech fails on that scale. As does tOSU etc etc
  18. Texas hasn’t looked good for much of the year either - even in wins. Choose your words wisely.
  19. I’m not gonna argue against the case you make for Texas being in. It’s the anti-Big12 bias that erks me. You could make the exact same statement above while including Oregon, Miami, Notre Dame - heck, even aggy (BYU only has 1 loss) but you don’t - you only focus in Big12
  20. No, it proves that BYU is being judged differently than other teams (ND)
  21. “Better” - as in some dude’s or group of dude’s opinion? you remember the pre-season polls, right? I’d love the chance to see some Big12 teams go to the mat vs some SEC teams in the playoffs when it counts I have no problem admitting the SEC is by far the strongest and deepest conference. Or that the BIG is 2nd. And yeah, 2nd in spite of back-ro-back titles. The BIG and SEC both have guaranteed spots for all 4 of their CCG participants. The other leagues don’t have that privilege. So, we are left comparing the conference runner-ups from the non-BIGSEC with the remaining at-large teams and it is here where things aren’t so cut and dry. Utah and Oregon are not that far removed from being conference mates with Utah taking the most recent conference title. Since their parting of ways, we are being told to believe that Utah now sucks at football and Oregon is elite despite zero on the field results to support said claim. The win over SC was Oregon’s 1st of the season.
  22. I’m not saying that. The top is of that conference is. No one - NO ONE - is claiming the Big12 deserves equal representation. But 5 bids to 1 bid is borderline excessive I’m pointing out the moving target and how one’s rooting interests color the view of said target
  23. And how many of those teams has aggy played?
