LWhat a laugher: College Football Playoff committee has a sense of humor

quote:

The College Football Playoff committee must have a sense of humor.

Either that or the whole thing is just one big joke.

On Tuesday evening, the group of voters charged with putting together a playoff for their sport created a scenario that only a professional showman could devise.




quote:

The committee placed Alabama at No.5 in its new rankings, which is ludicrously too low for the Crimson Tide, but not only that, the committee put Georgia at No.4. With Alabama’s weak strength of schedule a concern, that means the Crimson Tide needs some quality wins to bolster its resume


quote:

How are we as a collective state supposed to function properly?

Alabama (8-1), so ranked, currently is in position to miss the College Football Playoff for the first time in its six-year history. Nick Saban’s juggernaut of team hasn’t been outside the Top Four since November 2017. 




quote:

Alabama is the heart of college football, but right now there are chest pains.




quote:

That Alabama is even having to rely on Auburn is a bit of manufactured drama, which, if we’re being honest, is what this whole sham of a system really needs right now. The College Football Playoff committee has turned this sport into an exhibition of corporate greed at the expense of real competition.

Lol. Whine and cry. That's what they do best. They are a bunch of entitled twits that think the CFB world revolves around them. In truth, it has the better part of 11 years- but they were this way before Saban. SMH

Entitled much? They think they should be given an automatic bid.

Do you think these tools are a little arrogant? If Alabama football was magically removed from the map, I am confident we could go on.

Joseph Goodman is a try hard troll journalist, and not a very good one once you catch on to his shtick. He tries to be like Finebaum with controversial opinions that get clicks.

UGA has two wins over teams currently ranked. Alabama? Not so much. And don't hold Alabama's quality loss against UGA, they'll have their shot at one in early December.

I don't get this. The use of such a strong qualifier implies that they are not even within one spot of their "rightful" place. The writer is suggesting Bama should not have dropped at all following the loss?
