The goal is the 4 best teams. It seems pretty obvious to me that could easily include two teams from the same conference.


Theoretically 2 teams in the same conference couple be in. You could even see a rematch. But it will be because they earned it objectively, not were given a mulligan because of a subjective feeling.

It should be obvious that Michigan, despite winning the big 10 wasn’t as good as UGA..and they had the same record.


Just about any team can beat other in a single neutral site game. It’s not about who can beat who, it’s about who earned the right to be there. Not all conferences are equal (I would like to see 64 teams form a true DI), but if a P5 team can beat everybody on their schedule they deserve to be in the playoffs. They did everything in there control. If they slip up and lose 1 game but still win there conference they are more deserving than a P5 that didn’t win their conference with only 1 loss.

Does that make sense to you? Am I explaining it right? It’s about setting a standard and rewarding those that meet it. I believe championships should by there very nature be exclusive and not inclusive. That’s why I am against expanding the playoffs. You water down the product and cheapen the accomplishment by allowing teams that didn’t earn the spot in.

And it’s not because UGA won a title under those circumstances. They won by the standard recognized by the sport. My issue is with the standard (or lack there of) not UGA (despite popular opinion I don’t dislike UGA)

The stats that prove that uga was elite are not subjective feelings.

Wrong. Elite teams are much harder to beat than shite teams.

This would make sense if you didn’t admit this…..
