But they didn’t make the top 12 playoff teams. Number 16 Clemson did make the top 12 though.

Those 2 sentences alone should tell anyone with a functioning brain, that this current system doesn’t make any sense.

Good luck finding more than four people with a functioning brain on here.

Number 16 Clemson won their conference championship game.
Number 11 Alabama didn't even play in theirs.

Army also won their conference. I understand the system, I’m telling you that it’s screwed up.

This new system was not designed to get the top 12 teams. I thought everybody knew that.

When you lost to Vandy, that was a massive sh*t seed. Don't be surprised, then, that it turned into a massive sh*t weed.

South Carolina just beat Clemson at their place and would of crushed SMU. You set up a stupid system you get stupid results.

Ask a 9-7 NFL team what it’s like to miss the playoffs because the Seahawks won the NFC West at 9-7.

Ask the 1993 SF Giants what it was like to win 103 games, second most in all of baseball, and get left out because they didn’t win the division.

Ask any NBA team in the Western Conference that finished 9th from 2000 to about 2010 what it was like to be way better than half the teams in the East bracket.

Are all those systems flawed?

Yes they are. Just my opinion though.

You mean Oklahoma. Losing to Vandy was no problem.

8-2, easy path to the SECCG and then lose to a 5-5 team. If Bama had won, they'd have been ranked ahead of Tennessee.

If you lose 3 games and cannot defeat the team that finished 13th in the SEC in the 2nd to last week of the regular season, I think it’s safe to say you do not deserve to be in the 12 team playoffs.
