re: 1st CFP Rankings (2 LSU, 4 Bama, 10 FLA, 18 OM, 19 TAM, 20 Miss St)

It's all hype. Guarantee that Ohio State and Sparty will both be top four or five when they play just like this weekend with LSU and Alabama.

Oh, and Jamie Lassiter I'd w dumbass of the highest order.

So, since you didn't watch the game apparently. 24 of those points came off of turnovers (at least 3 of which were deep in Bama territory)

See this is what I've got a problem with. The points are negated or mean less because they came off turnovers? Championship football involves protecting the ball.

I don't know why everyone has trouble calling a spade a spade. Alabama played poorly against Ole Miss and they lost at home. They lost the ball 5 times. I think that being overlooked because of what Alabama has done in past seasons. My question is why should they get a free pass to play poorly and be rewarded.

Plus #3 ranked Strength of Schedule. Wisconsin isn't ranked but their 2 losses are to us and Iowa, and you could argue they'd beat Iowa if Clement wasn't injured.

They're a 2-loss team with a cakewalk schedule. Maryland and Minnesota are terrible. Northwestern may end up being the biggest win of the season.. if they somehow beat them. Wisconsins opponents thus far combine for 28 wins, 39 losses. That's with a 7-1 team (Alabama) and an 8-0 team (Iowa) on their schedule. The teams Wisconsin has beaten this season combine for 13 wins, 38 losses.

That's bad. To make it worse.. their remaining opponents are 2-6 Maryland, 6-2 Northwestern, and 4-4 Minnesota.

NC state scored 41 vs Clemson

Finebaum says Bama should not be in top 4 ahead of LSU game.

I'm not going to get upset about it right now because I believe they gave themselves an out with Bama and LSU on the docket this weekend, but it is hard to take these rankings seriously with Bama 6 spots ahead of Florida.

There is hardly any criteria where Bama is superior to UF at this point in the season. Basically, if you can use every argument they would use to put Bama over ND, Baylor, TCU, etc., to put UF over Bama.

Not that I expected any other result, but the CFP Playoff committee continues to be about the "eye test" and big name programs more than anything else.

Oh, and for those who say it doesn't matter because if UF wins out they'll be in the playoff, that is horse shite. I hate that kind of talk. It matters a great deal because it speaks to the integrity of the committee. Sure UF is in if they win out, but this is the first chance for us to see what the committee thinks, and it is obvious they're fricking clueless.

Every point of credibility they gain for having Baylor and TCU at 6 and 8, they lose by having Bama @ 4 with UF @ 10. IDC where you put Bama and UF, as long as UF is ahead of Bama.

It is truly a crock of shite that they care about the rankings of a team when the game was played. It is obvious the committee gave Bama much more credit for beating #7 UGA and didn't give a shite that UF beat an unranked Georgia. The fact that UGA was severely overrated shouldn't benefit Bama just because they got the first crack at UGA.
