  1. LOL especially at whoever gave ND a first place vote.
  2. Colt, Quan, and Shipley really should’ve opted out of the 2008 Fiesta Bowl vs Ohio State. It was a pointless exhibition game that did nothing to help them or the program for the following season.
  3. Too much GenZ attitude on here. Unless you were a top 2-3 team, the bowls never “meant” anything. It’s about one extra game for players and fans after a winning season to play against a team they don’t typically get to play in (usually) a nice location. It’s more football before long break until August.
  4. Good. They can pay us for getting out of the game and fund our portal buys. Win win.
  5. Surly can quit bitching about P5 auto bids in relation to Texas not getting in. The committee still had ND, BYU, and maybe Vandy ahead of us.
  6. I don’t recall ever rooting for Miami or Ohio State. CFP makes for odd bed fellows.
  7. In a subjective ranking system, even with computers, the #3 team under BCS always had a more legitimate bitch than the #11, 12, 13 team today. - Eliminate CCGs - Expand to 16 teams with no auto bids, or 32 teams with auto bids.
  8. I haven’t seen Texas mentioned in the tv discussion at all in the past 24 hours, which pisses me off more than not getting in. We had some great wins and deserve some air time for the hype machine and any recruits watching. Our merits for inclusion seem to be limited to the zealots of surly horns.
  9. If we asked the committee to scrutinize how we looked in each game because the final score doesn’t tell the entire story, they also might look at our games against SJSU, UTSA, UK, and MSU. A reasonable assessment is Texas could knock off a top team but is just as likely to struggle or shit the bed against a lower seed team.
  10. I retract my previous post. After this stupid ass finish to the ACC, I think both ND and Miami should be out and both Texas and Bama should be in.
  11. Unless JMU gets matched up vs aggy in the first round, in which case I hope JMU puts up 50 on the scoreboard for dead dogs.
  12. Why did the clock not start on the ready whistle after the declined false start penalty on Duke’s last 2nd down? The result of the play was a tackle inbounds. Quick flags on PI. The second one was about 9 yards past LOS…I thought if the penalty occurred <15 yards downfield it was a spot foul? The ref gave them 15. WR was not forced out of bounds…
  13. Tulane is already in as the 4th highest conference champion. It will be JMU/Duke for the 5th conference champion spot. Most assuredly the #11 and 12 seeds.
  14. The burnt orange glasses have been fused directly to the eyeballs of most posters here. If we were in Alabama’s position, this board would be 100% in the camp of “2 regular season losses, you can’t be penalized for playing in a CCG against #3 team while teams like aggy, Ole Miss, OU, and Miami get to dodge it!” Duke winning, followed by James Madison or Tulane getting annihilated in the first round is the best instrument for change. We really shouldn’t have lost to a terrible Florida or gone to OT vs. bad UK and MSU teams. We looked shitty in as many games as we looked good this year. It really neuters any argument of getting the last spot over ND or Miami. Maybe auto bids will go away. The playoffs should go to 16 because first round byes are fucking stupid in a sport where rankings are subjective.
