In your mind who SHOULD the final 2 teams have been with no g5?

To me it’s obviously ND and then comes down to Texas and Vandy. Texas having the head the head and much harder schedule gives them the edge to me.

BYU don’t wanna hear it that got Sasha grey gangbanged twice by the only truly great team they played

my question is what record is acceptable for a G5 to be in?

Do they have to be undefeated?

Not convinced Tech is truly great.

That said, I am good with the top 12 save BYU, as well.

I think Vandy did enough to earn that 12 spot.

I think they should have to be top 18. And have played at least 2 p4 teams on their schedule. Preferably one of in a higher tier and one in a lower tier.

I like the JMU story but that rag dolled by Louisville who is the only good team they played same with Tulane and ole Miss

Have to weight metrics. If it is just record, why schedule anyone with a pulse?

I just can’t accept a team who lost the H2H but won one more game than the other team getting the nod. I’d have Texas and ND.

P.S. I’m an Aggie fan.

Tulane lost to UTSA by 3 TDs and if you watched the game, the score doesn't indicate how lopsided it was. That should've been a disqualifying loss right there.

Vandy and Texas. Both teams would clobber ND.

IMO, it's rather ridiculous to have 17.5 and 20.5 point underdogs in a playoff game(s).

Vandy beat 3 teams with a winning record. ND has a better record than that.

Less should have been put in.

It would have to be ND and Texas, with Texas the higher seed.

Yes, unless they play and lose to a top 5 - 10 team.

Then they better blow out the rest of their schedule but.

Who it should have been is Texas and Vandy, who it would have been is Texas and ND.

Would have been better for Vandy if they swapped playing Texas for a bottom 8 SEC team and won.

they also smartly scheduled Va tech and cupcakes in the OOC.

Well golly...the committee had 11 and 12 as ND and BYU, so I'm going to go with them.
