    Came across this on YouTube. Last ever Houston Oilers playoff game. What a disappointment and another terrible childhood memory of mine.

     

    I also was there. Hmm, at least I got to see Montana play in person, I guess ?

    Uuuhhhhhh no. 
     

    The system rewards scheduling for an undefeated season.  It clearly discourages out of conference matchups for fear of that one loss, and discourages the ACC and SEC from actually playing their conference opponents (and to keep playing D2 schools). We are sacrificing the first 3rd of the season to make the artificial “push” at the end of the season to only have 1 or zero losses. The rest of the schedule doesn’t mean shit. Just don’t lose. 
     

    8 is great.  A conference championship is the only real metric college football has that is played on the field. Polls and committees should be saved for politics, not sports. 120+ teams and 12 games. Zero like schedules. And a playoff system based on confirmation bias. 

    Bingo. Oregon would be in if they traded their Auburn game for a 4-8 P5 OOO opponent.

    It definitely could happen.  I think they should move to the Big XII, it's a much better fit.  It would help them with recruiting.

    I don't think they have a chance in hell of more than short-term success in the SEC.  But I doubt their egos would let them contemplate a smart move out of the SEC.

    While I don't want Arky in the Big 12, it's what would help them win football games, but they'd take a cash hit - $43.7 million per school in SEC vs $38.8 million per school in Big 12. Cash is more important than winning football games so that move ain't happening.
