Clemson, OU, Georgia, BAMA in Playoffs

Please do not misunderstand me. I am not saying UCF should be in this year. I am saying I do not see any way a G5 team could ever make it.

Alabama getting in is a joke

Will it be a joke if they win it all? They are very capable

not as big a joke as Ohio St. getting in with 2 blowout losses. Sagarin has Bama as the No. 1 team in the Country--and that Florida St. blowout is being underestimated because FSU would have had a much better season if Francois hadn't gotten hurt

Vegas has Bama as the favorite to win it all, FWIW.

Probably pisses Auburn moneymen enough to let Gus go to Arkansas for $7 million/year for 10 years.

Yes. They couldn’t even win their division but the whole 4 team playoff is a joke

Too much fun the way it is. Why ruin it?

I love it the way it is. If my team cannot be a part of it regardless of how good we could get, I want half of the rest of the country mad too.

College football is the only sport that chooses their champion subjectively and by a committee made up of people who have unbelievable conflicts of interest. It’s all done for TV ratings. And ESPN is a Propaganda machine and cash cow for the money programs and the NCAA.

Look at Alabama’s schedule this year. They beat two ranked teams, LSU and Mississippi State. And not one win against a top 15 team. Best win is LSU who lost to Troy. Sec was garbage this year. Arkansas, Tennessee, A&M, Vanderbilt, ole miss, Florida. Personally I don’t see much of a debate for them over Ohio State who has two top 10 wins and won the Big 10. I’m sure some will disagree but not sure how anybody can defend this system. It’s a joke and media manipulation is the only thing preventing complete outrage to what an indefensible system this is. What the f is an “eye test”

Most of the SEC west would run through the Big like [deleted] through a goose. OSU lost to IOWA (!!) - by 30. They have 2 loses. No way you deserve in if you have lost twice.

So you do not think Auburn should have been in if they had beaten Georgia on Saturday?

by **AusTxPony** » Mon Dec 04, 2017 10:29 am

My 2 cents: They got it right, UCF had a poor OOC schedule. I think Houston would have made it if they had gone undefeated with wins over OU and UL. If the Knights beat Auburn, then they will be Top Ten. Let's prove we belong by winning all our bowls! Go Ponies, take Frisco seriously...

Why does Clemson get a pass for losing to Syracuse and yet a school from the American is not even taken into account despite having 3 Top 25 wins and no losses? If Houston had one loss to Navy last year and beaten us they too should be in on a season like this year.
