No because our odds would be way lower in that case. The relationship would only indicate a solid belief that there will be 5 but not 6 SEC teams.
If it weren't just a coincidence which I believe it probably is.
It's a lot of good. It would eventually strengthen the teams in the G5, maintain historical parity if not increase it, and lead to hilarious upsets in time. If I wanted to watch the NFL I would watch it. Of course even they understand the real meaning of a playoff and put every division winner in it even if they have a losing record.
It's fucking it up for Texas fans. He is absolutely correct that removing it isn't good for the sport's health.
Not to mention it's not a real playoff if it's possible to go undefeated and not be in it. It should be all 9 conference champions with 7 at-large bids. No I don't think the Sun Belt champ would stay within 35 of Ohio State for at least a few seasons. But I also don't care.
Money does drive the odds but it's not the only thing that drives them. Not saying you're saying that but it's a common misconception.
Books will absolutely move lines based on other information. And also the converse, that will also refuse to move lines despite imbalances in money coming in. They do not move odds to exactly split the money to guarantee a profit on every line.
Easiest solution for the committee is just put Texas ahead of Alabama tomorrow based on their shitass performance against Auburn, our double digit win over #3, and Florida kicking FSU's ass.
It will obviously not happen but it would be a lot cooler if they did.
Exactly, Verstappen cost himself 9 points by throwing a tantrum. He would be 3 points behind right now with everything in his hands if he had just not been a baby.
Name them
For example I believe they were overrated at #3 but we should still get credit for another Top 10 win. Explain in detail how that's incorrect or hypocritical.
This is my favorite message board stupidity.
"I think I am wise because I point out the logical disconnect between different posts but in reality I'm too slow to realize that different people having different opinions is not hypocritical."
Also known as
"My stupid ass thinks everyone else on this message board is one person."
I agree with the ultimatum forcing there to be a problem, but once they made that move and then he said he was leaving, then allowing him to coach the playoffs is not a reasonable decision.
The world is very different now so we're all just guessing. Alabama was a great destination when being willing to illegally pay players was a game changing benefit for a head coach.
I don't care either way.
But your side of the argument is just silly bravado. Why don't we play an elite opponent for every non-conference game? Because intentionally lowering your chances of winning championships is dumb.
