The playoffs may need some work but this is way more fun than just one game of two teams selected by computers

It's bullshite. All because Duke won a game in front of 25,000 people on the first Saturday in December.

I'm not internet outraged or frustrated about how flukey it is. It's just what the system is now and there's no going back.

One game at the cost of the entire sport.


You know teams used to be excited to go to a non NYD bowl and be happy about winning it.

SMU and Louisville both finished 9-4, in the ACC, which I’ve been assured by the football wizards on tRANT is a garbage conference.

Any more questions, bitch mutt?

Not sure how that's the fault of the playoffs those games were always meaningless. No we have way more meaningful games instead of one

That lost to SMU and Louisville. It’s good tv, but not the best way to crown a champion.

How is it any different than other playoffs? A 10-6 Giants won the Super Bowl against an undefeated Patriots team. It's part of the fun of having an actual playoff system

4 losses in 15 games is better than 9-4.

Would advise you no longer take swamp water enemas and then brush your teeth with the toilet water. If you possess teeth.

I agree with the point you are making. The only thing I can say to play devils advocate is college is a much different game than the NFL. Miami for instance can literally sleep walk through 11 games (as they basically did). In the NFL your season is over if you do that.

Who cares about “meaningful” games.

Previously, that was the regular season you dipshit.

I miss enjoying all the games from the mid majors up till the New Year’s Day bowls with the teams excited to participate and doing everything they could to win, regardless of how “meaningless” it was.



frick this “playoff or it doesn’t matter” bullshite.

To take it home, I miss things like “holy shite, this is the most interesting non BCS bowl”
