re: Why would you even WANT to play this year anyway? Its a tainted season.

If a team goes 9-1 or 10-0 against all SEC competition and some news agencies name them the national champion, you think that wouldn't be a deserved title?

Granted, If ACC plays and they dont have the playoffs and Clemson goes undefeated against their shitty conference, they may have to share the title with the SEC's best, but still, the last 5 champions have come from the SEC or ACC so that might be fair
