,,,the names at the top had been clemson for the acc, somebody other than t.u. or ou for the big12 and somebody other than bama/georgia in the sec, would be interesting to see the various compilations of top 4 teams. i GUARANTEE it wouldn't be the same all the way through. and that's the problem with the current 4-team system.

Agree, except FSU and Clemson brand value isn't much different.

If Georgia wins, I believe fsu is in and Texas is out, but they had to keep an sec in there.


However, to misquote Vince McMahon after the Montreal Screwjob. "The ACC screwed the ACC"

Would like to see the standings if you removed the names and just labeled them team 1 - team 6 and then weight the sos and win/loss along with other standard metrics

It would end up Mich, Wash, FSU, Georgia I bet

Why does that even matter Michigan played the following schedule. How do you compare that pathetic schedule to Georgia or FSU? I could be wrong but I have a hunch Michigan is the team that doesn't belong. They have a reputation for destroying the teams they play (minus OSU). Well they should destroy that slate.

East Carolina
UNLV
Bowling Green
Rutgers
Nebraska
Minnesota
Indiana
Michigan St
Purdue
Penn St
Maryland
Ohio st

I have found it funny that people blame the committee and TCU for the championship game blowout, repeating how much they didn't belong.

But they beat Michigan.


You're possibly right. Maybe Michigan is the overrated culprit in all of this.

I just read this and thought the exact same thing. A better question (Nobody asked) was why the heck did we put TWO B10 teams in the playoff who quickly proceeded to lose both first round games. To your point the B10 champ LOST to the B12 RUNNER up!

Don't forget Michigan lost their best lineman- Zinter... The line didn't look the same against Iowa without him.

Ok, but OSU was a missed fg away from winning...

Michigan played like total crap against TCU. That games gets played 10 times... Michigan wins at least 8..

That's football though..

I think what they don't want to admit is they didn't want to NOT have an SEC team in the CFP. Next they give priority to conference championship. Then H2H.

BAMA beating Georgia drug tu ahead with them due to the H2H. This screwed everything up.

It should have been Michigan, Washington, tu, and FSU.

No way Georgia should be in. Their best win was either Mizzou or Ole Miss, they played no one in the non-conference and lost head-to-head against Bama.

FSU would be in but for the injury to their QB. The question is do you factor that into the equation or not. Also not helping them is their schedule was weak. Their best win was LSU. Bama can claim the same win along with beating Ole Miss and Georgia.

As for tu, I don't know how you take Bama over tu when tu beat them by 2 scores at Bama. Yes it was early in the season but please don't tell me if roles were reversed and we were left out after beating Bama at Bama that we wouldn't be incensed.

tu has the poorest loss and the worse marquee win of any 1 loss team, much less undefeated FSU.

4 best teams are Mich, Georgia, and 2 of the three: Ohio State, Alabama or Washington. FSU is 6.

I don't like keeping a team out due to a known injury. You're assigning a value to that player. Your telling the backup and everyone else that they're incapable of rising to the occasion which is, in my opinion, total and utter crap.

Also we all saw the injury happen and knew it immediately. It was season ending. Not the case with other injuries. Soft tissue or concussion. Coach will say he's day to day. Coach will say yes expected to play. Heck a coach could have simply waited until after the 4 teams were announced to say oh by the way the starting whatever is out.

Simply put one person/player does not make the program

(Unless you're Jameis Winston making Jimbo look like a coaching genius)

Jeez….
Michigan shot themselves in the foot multiple times, essentially gift-wrapping the game to TCU multiple times, and even then TCU damn near F'd it up and almost gave it right back to Mich before it was over.

TCU didn't win that game.
Mich gave it away, multi-fold. Not sure they could have played much worse.

Georgia in contrast played a tight game.
Score reflected truth.

This year Mich is CFP #1
Georgia just missed out.

And TCU wasn't even bowl eligible.

Who did FSU best that was a more marquee win than tu beating Bama @Bama? How about Ohio State?

How is beating Alabama at Alabama the worst marquee win when Alabama just won the SEC?

The super conference is coming, it will be the next big thing. More money and fewer teams.

I love when you rank the teams. Like in late October when you posted the following ranking for teams in Texas:
1. A&M
2. Tech
3. TCU
4. SMU
5. BAYLOL
6. tu

You're one of the most entertaining guys on here. Keep going!!

In no way would Georgia get in based on SOS and not sure what other 'standard metrics' even means. Not sure how you can lose to Alabama in the CCG and then expect to get into the CFP over them based on 'standard metrics' that apparently exclude losing head to head the day before.

Because it was Sept 9 and Alabama hadn't settled on a QB yet. And Nov Alabama >>>>> Sep Alabama.

I stand by that. tu is absolutely the worst, no matter how many games they win or lose. But console yourself and your sip bretheren that baylol is almost as bad.

BTW, who said I was a guy? I thought sips were against harassment by using non-prefered pronouns.
