At what point does the sec protest this? How is it fair that Florida state and ohio state can pretty much lock themselves into the playoffs with an easy schedule, while the sec only sends 1 even though they have all the best teams. This is bullshite

To be fair, when the SEC won 7 in a row, then we could make this argument. The SEC has been embarrassed for two seasons in a row.

This will be the first year since Saban arrived in Baton Rouge that a player recruited to LSU didn't win the SEC and play for a National Title.

In your expert opinion, which other SEC team was qualified to represent the conference in the inaugural CFB playoff?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Was instituted expressly to dilute the SEC's stranglehold on the BCS.

Any one of the sec west teams could have beaten every team in that playoff on any given day.

You act like you just found out about the playoff system. Relax, dude. SEC will still get at least one team in, just like in BCS.

If a two loss SEC team gets left out then the shite will hit the fan. Assuming the two loss team wins the conference.

we would have a much stronger case if we won it last year.

but i would rather play their schedules and not be as beat up each year for sure.

Allow me to rephrase, which of the following teams, based on resume, would you have selected to the playoffs in place of those in 2014?

11-2 Missouri with a loss to Indiana on their resume
9-3 Georgia, who didn't win their division
10-2 Miss St, who didn't win their division
9-3 Ole Miss, who didn't win their division

Any number of teams that finished worse than 9-3 in regular season play.

I was fine with the BCS, but the thing I absolutely hate with the playoff is the selection committee. We've basically taken the vote from the many and given it to a select few, and some of them probably know less about football then the average fan.

Who actually thought this would be a good idea?

Ohio State also didn't lose another game that year and told Wisconsin to eat the curb in the B1G Championship.
