3 ACC Grads
2 Big 12 Grads
1 SEC Grad, If you count Mizzou as SEC.
1 PAC 12
2 Misc

It will change tomorrow , but currently 4 Big Ten teams in the top 7? Big Ten football is like watching high school football from the 70's. These idiots should not be picking playoff teams.
Bring back the BCS formula.

You posted a lot of stuff

But zero explanation for why the SEC should be any higher rated or a reason why the rankings are wrong

Face it. The SEC sucks

The B1g 10 sucks. It will be proven in the playoffs. Other than the Buckeyes playing Oklahoma, who have they played and beaten?
And, don't give me Whiskey over LSU, we all know LSU sucked with Miles the last few years. And Oklahoma is not that great either.

Michigan and Ohio State both looked capable of giving Bama all the could handle especially on defense.

There has never been one instance where I thought the committee was biased against Bama. You need to root for LSU. This is some shite they'd bitch about.

I never said anything about being biased against Bama. They are B1G Ten biased.

They've played Wisconsin, Michigan, Penn St., Oklahoma. 3-1 vs those teams, best in the nation.

For years, there was a definite bias towards the SEC, and we enjoyed it. For instance, recently 'Bama lost on it's home field in 2 consecutive seasons, yet made the playoff or BCS Championship.

Things even out over time. The SEC is down, besides 'bama of course.

Why couldn't they have just kept the BCS formula to pick the top 4 teams?

Well let's see:

Wisconsin beat LSU
Michigan beat Colorado

Those are 3 pretty good wins no matter how you slice it. I mean those could be 2 conference champs after next weekend.

There are some other OOC wins that are much less significant

There does seem to be a narrative the last two years . SEC teams will be ranked low and perceived as a lesser conference , then the SEC only will lose a game or two during bowls . Let's see how this bowl season turns out and we will have a larger sample size .

Dude, your team is in no matter what. Stop being a bitch. The SEC will never get left out for the forseeable future. The conference would have to get very bad for a while to not get the champ in period.

I'm not worried about Bama being in or not. I'm talking about the next teams not getting a fair shake now and in the future.

I'm not saying its biased or not but I do think they should use the computer rankings as a check and balance to the human element of the committee.

Bama fan worrying about bias of the CFP committee.

Man, you're really just looking for a fight, aren't you?

Michigan has an OOC win vs Colorado

tOSU has OOC wins against 9-3 Tulsa and on the road vs Oklahoma.

They have earned their places this season.
