  1. Imma, don't be stupid. The expansion to 12 teams was approved by the 11 member CFP board managers back in 2022. Here is who comprised that body at the time....tell me again how this present set of circumstances was happening without agreement from conferences outside the SEC and B1G Members of the CFP Board of Managers are Timothy Caboni – Conference USA (President, Western Kentucky); Jim Clements – Atlantic Coast Conference (President, Clemson); Gordon Gee – Big 12 Conference (President, West Virginia); Jack Hawkins – Sun Belt Conference (President, Troy); Rev. John Jenkins – President, Notre Dame (Independent); Kristina Johnson – Big Ten Conference (President, Ohio State); Mark Keenum (chair) – Southeastern Conference (President, Mississippi State); Kirk Schulz – Pacific-12 Conference (President, Washington State); Satish Tripathi – Mid-American Conference (President, Buffalo); Gerald Turner – American Athletic Conference (President, SMU); Keith Whitfield – Mountain West Conference (President, UNLV). https://collegefootballplayoff.com/news/2022/9/2/bom-votes-12-team-playoff.aspx
  2. There we go
  3. They are, but nobody would have agreed to this without them. It's why I still think eventually the SEC and B1G say fuck it and go do their own thing at some point.
  4. Yep, they are kind of lucky Alabama hung on last night. Don't have to go play the SEC title game without Lane like FSU had to go play the ACC title game without their QB and looked like dogshit doing it.
  5. The one thing they couldn't do
  6. It's a red card. Anthony Taylor don't be a douchenozzle.
  7. I get what you are saying but seems like you could argue that situation was a player on the field in the most important position vs a head coach whose system and players will still be there on the field.
  8. YELLOW CARDS FOR EVERYBODY
  9. The problem is the coaches as a collective want this early signing period, this portal window, etc etc. The group at large doesn't care about the specific impacts on any one school or the sport. They want to generally get recruiting (both HS and the transfer portal) over as quickly as possible going into the New Year. And since most coaches are not playing in a playoff game and the NCAA is a soft cock organization I don't see it changing.
  10. Running Bayern in between two derbies with the injuries we keep collecting all within a week's time is a pretty big gut check for this squad.
  11. You guys give him a break. Executing 40 separate "foot wedges" and taking 15 10+ feet gimmes is exhausting work.
  12. Then you are deluding yourself. Look the aggy win was FUCKING FANTASTIC. But for all the reasons I was fairly confident we could win that game they were also not a good measuring stick for can we win it all. Neither was OU with their shitastic offense. We've seen those measuring sticks. tOSU 14 Texas 7, Georgia 35 Texas 10.
  13. Ask TCU how the "opportunity" to win a national championship that they didn't win worked out for them. Or Clemson how the "opportunity" to be in the playoffs last year worked out for them? Take a longer view dude...but then look who I am talking to, one of the most emotional reactionary posters on this site.
  14. A few thoughts 1. I'm sure the 10 million words that are going to be written in this thread after this post arguing the "punished for tOSU game/don't lose to Florida" points will really make a difference but Surly gonna Surly 🙄 2. Do any of you all really believe this team has what it takes to make it to the final 4 this year, much less win it all? If you don't, then... 3. Maybe, just maybe, getting left out while still getting the practices, etc that come with a bowl game will relight the fire under this team and particularly the coaching staff's ass to do what needs to be done to get this to a position where it truly is a contender going into 2026. I know silver linings and all, but we ain't winning it all this year anyway, so I would almost rather have the motivational sting of getting "snubbed" driving this program. Let programs like Tech and aggy celebrate making the playoffs and then doing absolutely nothing in them. Unless you win it all, or at least make the national semifinals, nobody is going to remember shit about it in a few years (real quick, tell me who were the first 8 outs in the 2022 NFL playoffs)
  15. Not if two G5 conference champions are ranked higher than they are.
  16. I think I've spotted your problem
  17. and we're done here
  18. Yea that will never be the agreed to allocation.
  19. Bama that has a voodoo curse on Georgia? That Bama?
  20. Wingo watching that PI get called thinking WTF?
  21. Weak sauce
  22. Yea their song selection last night was off.
