Lol. I’m not even going to argue with you though that’s what you want.Tell me where the percentages come from then that’s what I wanna know.
I’ve said all along all of their rankings are to get people talking and tuned in on a Tuesday night and it still is. The only one that matters is next Sunday after the conference title games

Again. It's not about what we think.There is no way either of you are gullible enough to believe Ohio state will be in if TCU and USC both win out
Tell me y’all ain’t serious.
And where do these percentages even come from?
Lol. I’m not even going to argue with you though that’s what you want.
0-0. All focus to Utah.
Again. It's not about what we think.
You've totally taken everything out of context.
It's about what the media and committee is thinking.
I agree with you 100%The SEC bias is real but also valid. Y'all act like the conference hasn't dominant in the Playoff as well as the BCS era. If other conferences would show up then their wouldn't be nearly as much bias, bottom line.
Let me ask you this...I’m still trying to figure out how the playoff killed the B12 and PAC
Let me ask you this...
Why do you think USC and UCLA have decided to join the Big 10?
Do you think they just prefer to travel and play at Rutgers and at Penn State over going to Stanford and at Cal?
If you don't think the playoff influences alot of that you're just being naiveYou really think it’s for the playoff? Considering UCLA has been cheeks the last several years I’m SURE that was their top priority.
It couldn’t possibly be the B1Gs new 7 year $7 BILLION dollar TV deal they just inked.
No, it was strictly for the playoff
Got it
If you don't think the playoff influences alot of that you're just being naive
How do you think the BIG 10 got that deal?
Here's the thing about context. You can't pick and choose the buzz words you want to pay attention to and twist what I'm saying to fit your argument.If the playoff is the reason for teams jumping conference why did Nebraska/Rutgers/Maryland jump to the B1G? Why did Missouri go to the SEC? Because they’re playoff contenders?
“The fact that Ohio State is reported by ESPN to still have an 80%+ chance of making the playoffs after getting beat at home by Michigan is exactly why USC and UCLA are bolting the PAC 12 for the BIG 10.” Is what you said in a previous post. Those schools aren’t sitting there and saying “Aw man I saw the espn percentage indicator and we should jump ship so we have a higher percentage!” I hate to break it to you but most of these higher ups at schools don’t give two sh*ts about making the playoff, all they care about is making money
Here's the thing about context. You can't pick and choose the buzz words you want to pay attention to and twist what I'm saying to fit your argument.
You want to twist what I said into me suggesting that conference movement and imbalance is tied directly into playoff berths and that's it. That's not what I said.
My statement about the playoff was fundamentally about media bias and how that influences a ton of what happens in college football.
If you can't see that media/committee bias, recruiting, money and playoff berths are all tied in to a programs long term success, I just can't help you.
And before you say something else silly, I'm not talking about Rutgers and Missouri. I'm talking about the 6 star programs
It wasn't ever binary with me.Y’all really having this binary argument when you know it’s a little bit of several factors, the playoff absolutely being one, as was money, as was personal gripes with their conferences.
Agree to disagree.So I ask this, when the playoff expands to 12 teams and by default includes conference champs from all conferences along with G5 teams and the PAC/ACC both fall apart, is that still the fault of the playoff?
Just chiming in: It’s not going to include all conference champs by default. The SEC and B1G have specifically blocked that because they know a 12 team playoff made up of at larges would have 8 SEC and B1G teams. I don’t have a dog in this but you’re sort of helping him make his point.So I ask this, when the playoff expands to 12 teams and by default includes conference champs from all conferences along with G5 teams and the PAC/ACC both fall apart, is that still the fault of the playoff?
BCS is wild long ago at this point. Bama has been dominant and as of late, UGA. SEC as a conference has not been dominant in the CFP era. That’s nonsenseThe SEC bias is real but also valid.

Essentially yes, but only because Alabama proved to be the best team in a playoff.No. I believe The committee would put in a one loss Ohio State over a two loss Alabama.
I highly disagree. The goal of the committee is to select the four best teams, sometimes those teams aren't conference champions. Would you rather the committee choose a three loss conference champion over a one loss non-conference champion with a better resume?
In the last decade or so we've had three non-conference champions when the national title
2011 Alabama (in the BCS era)
2017 Alabama
2021 Georgia
Are you staying the committee made a wrong choice putting those teams in the playoff?
