The only thing sacred is that I slept easy last night knowing my team made the playoffs and 98% of the fans at the Bama game were involved in Jan 6.

You know the ACC champ game had numbers in the 80%+ range too

I agree. When I saw that white guy dressed in brown face with the Native American headdress on, I knew we found the person that took a dump in the Capitol

TBH I can't definitely say that about Bama. This is the same Bama team that beat Auburn and Arkansas by a FG.
This FSU team with their back up is better than both teams.

Agree to disagree. FSU has been barely scraping by without Travis. If the Gators hadn’t choked the rivalry game away, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation.

None of the top teams are without questions and all of them have games were they looked really bad.

For the record, I’m not saying FSU should be left out. I’m just saying they’ll be easy business for Michigan or Washington.

My issue is the same issue and that is that the committee is not an upgrade over the BCS algorithm. The committee makes things up as they go and will continue to do so even with 12 teams. It’s not about the 4 best teams, it is about $, prestige, getting people debating and which fans will shell out money.
I don’t see the point in distributing rankings before the final one other than ratings and clicks when the committee reshuffles the deck each week. The only ranking that matters is the last one and the committee has shown it will twist itself into pretzels to get its preferred 4 teams in. I still think letting Ohio State in over TCU that one year was not fair and gave away the scam. No way Ohio State would’ve got in if TCU was Texas or Oklahoma. The fact that there is talk about FSU not getting in shows that the committee is a joke.

All the top teams had close wins so not sure what the point is as long as you win. FSU should get in

That’s fair, but you left a couple of Texas W’s off too. 7 pt win over a bad TCU team that lost to Colorado and they needed OT to beat KSU (although Ewers wasn’t playing). Bad wins/losses aside I just think Bama and UGA played tougher schedules which should count for something.

Well with shifting to 12 teams Bama and Georgia will have auto bids. But honestly 12 seems quite the jump from 4. Seems like there shouldn’t be any f’ery in that system but we shall see.

When 8 of the 12 teams will be SEC and B10 teams there will be nonsense with the ACC and B12 fighting over the last 4 spots.

Imagine telling FSU they didn’t make it. Cold blooded
They have to get it. I’d rather bama of course but fsu did their job. Survive and advance

Y’all know what’s gonna be really funny is next year when they expand to 12 it’ll be one of those seasons where you know exactly who is going to be in 
won’t be any chaos like this. Figures the final year of 4 teams we get the most chaos

The top 4 teams in the B1G and SEC should account for 8 of the 12 spots damn near every year. Let the others be up for grabs.

we need a title change. We are no longer on Georgia 3-peat watch. I can confirm that the Dawgs are no longer on top.

So long as the B12 doesn’t get an auto bid I’m good with it

Never been the one to do that even though I graduated from an sec school. I started watching college football long before I was thinking about where I’d go to college and there was no switching sides. All that said, it’s foolish to not be able to acknowledge that the conference has dominated the game for the last couple decades.
They should get in because they did everything they were supposed to do. And I’m of the belief that a win by 2 is the equivalent to a 30 point win at the end of the day, even though I see the nasty work of a 3 point win over auburn.
If GA played each of those teams over the next 6 teams, they wouldn’t lose more than 1.Georgia having less of a chance than Ohio St
Any given Saturday
the bar is being better than auburn and Arkansas? And I’m not sure FSU wins playing those teams last night. It’s okay to say they’re not the team to beat lsu or the one we’ve seen all year. “Travis Benjamin” being out knocks them out of the “one of the best teams” conversation.
