Wonder if result would have been different if Stone was not hurt.

This sucks.

Giving Liberty any sort of exposure is gross.

I hate the ncaa. Stone being hurt shouldnΓÇÖt be used against us. Announcers just said theyΓÇÖre not sure OregonΓÇÖs qb is going to play. Maybe they shouldnΓÇÖt have put them in a bowl game. I totally expected to get screwed again but I hate them.

I wonder if the old guard doesnΓÇÖt like the fact that we are buying our way to success in the NIL world and ACC move. Just a thought

NC State guy chairs the committee. NC State was last team to vote us into conference. Not sure what to make of this.

Oregon will beat this time by 50 points if not more. I heard the non explanation. This boo corrigan just screwed the ACC. He had no explanation. IΓÇÖm not surprised. These idiots should not be allowed in Dallas ever again. Persons non grata for life in the city and for SMU.

I hope SMU comes out with a statement.

My wife made the point that if the selection committee is going to downgrade FL State and SMU for losing our QBs, then they need to receive, in advance, a list of players who elect to sit out the bowl games and factor that into the selection process.

But the fact that you can get to 13-0 by playing the weakest schedule in the entire country and get a NY6 bowl invite discredits that entire selection committee.

Prayers and alcohol-driven statutory rape parties and victim-suppression really do confer blessings upon you.

Bo Nix wonΓÇÖt play. Oregon might not even train for this. Just play the backups.

What's even more irritating is the inconsistency: you elevate 1 team for going 13-0 BECAUSE they played the weakest schedule (literally), but you also punish another team for going 13-0 the HARD WAY, i.e., losing their best player and still finding a way to win. I thought sports was all about succeeding in the face of adversity.

And this does give a perverse incentive to play an easy non-conf schedule.

This decision is BAD for college football.

Still will easily win by 56+. What a joke the committee is.

Makes the point webmaster made more relevant. If they punish us and FSU for not having our starting QB, then make sure to know who sits out. Just cancel all the bowls that are not the playoff games.

In reality, the loss to the toads cost us dearly. Their sub-500 record was a bad look.

ItΓÇÖs also interesting to see the big differences in the AP and coaches poll with regard to the non-p5 teams than this bunch of idiots in the committee. I miss the rankings from the AP and coaches poll. These bunch of losers in the committee barely had us ranked. If they value the P5 so much, then they reward the team with the weakest schedule in the FBS that didnΓÇÖt play a single P5 game.

ItΓÇÖs gutting. Feel bad for the team, the fans, the university and the city.

We just need to make a statement in whatever bowl we go to.

My theory is this is just committee practice for next year when top rated non P5 team makes the playoffs. They pick the weakest non P5 conference champion with the best record to cover it. That way thereΓÇÖs little threat to the P5 team they play.

Glad weΓÇÖre outta that :!:
May the forth be with us.
