Building up the flags thrown and calling the penalties that can't be missed when reviewing tape

Flags starting to rain.

Pretty obvious it is protect a blue blood AND do everything you can to prevent the top 4 seeds from falling to 0-5 since the expansion.

If the top 4 seeds stumble something will need to change again.

---

Honestly I think it's actually a good thing. It calls out that the seeding is quite subjective, but also allows for any in the top 4 to be beaten if they don't belong there. Unlike with 2 or 4 teams in the championship or playoffs in previous systems, when no-one will ever know if the top 4 should actually be the ones playing in the end.

Yes, it's annoying that the bye teams are losing thus far, but for the sake of the purpose of the expanded playoffs, it is actually accomplishing exactly what was intended.

We'll see how tomorrow goes, so that should be interesting too.

How about a full-time professional referee corps that's not tied to the conferences?

---

Or bring in NFL crews??

Now that it is a pure business sure. Long overdue.

Still, the CFP bracket is stupid. There shouldn't be 3-4 weeks off for 4 teams while others have played and still get 10 days of rest.

Yeah announcers were focusing on RT 70. Hold was on 71 in the same frame - egregious, pulled guy back. They should've saw that.

---

Oh they saw it, they just aren't gonna say anything. The pass interference no call caught them off guard, they were gonna show how it was both hand fighting but it back fired on'em and they got caught and HAD TO say it was.

The most ridiculous part is the bye teams having a month off. We should be down to 4 before Christmas, without exception, every year.

Expand to top 16. Strictly off of rankings. No conference guarantees. If a conference wants to, wisely, get rid of a conference championship game then let them. Let lesser conferences have their own mini playoff for conference championship to boost their chances

Exactly. Having a top 4 seed should be an advantage. As it is setup now it is a disadvantage.

Hell, NFL refs are part time as well

Tard hasn't played a game since Dec 6th.

Beck versus his old Georgia team is a fun storyline that will get beat to death all next week

It all falls apart when ND or one of the other blue bloods wind up on the wrong side of the bubble, no matter how many teams are in a playoff.

Must have everyone in a conference, and play to a winner like the NFL. There's no other way.

But no conference allegiances.

Miami offensive line working OSU front right now

Osu might be gassed.

Beck has been playing pretty well today

I have a hard time objectively judging teams playing against A&M. Didn't know if Miami was great or we had an awful game. Miami looks damned solid. We could have beat them but regardless of what happens here I feel slightly better about our team.

I want Miami to win...but damn! I am tired of seeing Michael Irvin

He's had some tough runs and laid himself out.

Or maybe just a play-in game between the winner of the top teams of the lessor conferences against the last team that deserves to be there (vandy or notre dame this year) to get the last spot in the playoffs, and thus eliminated a lot of the whining and horrible first game matchups. None of the crap we got this year in the final selections.

What has Brown done for you lately?

He's like a TEMU Rick James

The U has this. They have a solid coach who can manage thru the last two mins.

And Reed-

Klein f'ed us- but #10 lost the game

---

Dumbest ****ing statement ever. Reed had us down to the 4 when Miami had a blatant targeting.

The biggest question is… Is Ohio State fraudulent and the worst 12-2 team ever?!?

He absolutely trucked a DB earlier for a first down.

The ONLY reason the suckeyes climbed back in this game is because their OL has been allowed to date rape Miami defenders.

I liked what McAfee said. Get rid of conference champ games, have bowl season like the days before playoffs, then reseed everyone after the bowl games and start the playoffs.

Yes to your second question.

And we lost because of Marcel. I love him, but he couldn't take us to the promised land. He just couldn't.

Don't settle for a Fg!

That first down may be ball game

Well look at that.

That was ballsy but it worked.
