Did you check out the AP and Coaches polls, by the way?


I haven’t looked at an AP or Coaches poll since the playoff started. I have no idea why they still even do it except for the sports media to feel important. It means nothing. Lol

See only the playoff poll matters.


How often have the top teams differed at the end of the regular season?

Interesting talking point when Herbie is being tossed around.

The committee knows you can’t play with Michigan.


They also know you're no farther from 7-5 than 12-0.

A poll no one reads anymore vs the number 1 college football voice are once again apples and oranges. I think you are arguing with me to convince yourself you guys are in because deep down you know it’s over for Ohio St. this isn’t the first time the committee left you guys out after a bad loss.

Incorrect.

I think Ohio State and Bama should both be done, no matter what happens next weekend.

I'm arguing that the committee is shite and doesn't have the balls to do the right thing.

You should probably change your name to DesperateBuckeye but in the end we will know Tuesday. If UA is 5th I doubt we will see you though.

It’s a corrupt system. 8 team playoff would be good this year.

The vols would still be out. If it was 8 teams the 5 power conferences would all get an automatic bid.
No one wants to see a Hookerless vol team get their asses handed to them so there’s no way y’all would get one of the 3 at large spots.

This is stupid.

If Alabama is 5th, I'll be right here, blasting the committee again.

I disagree because one or both will be in position to move up as designed by the polls

They are people so somewhat expected as it is their opinion

What is the right thing in this situation? If all 4 lost who should be in? No conference champion would be ranked in the top 4. There would be no undefeated teams. What criteria should be used?

Why to have more blowouts? Without Hooker UT is not a contender.

They don’t appear to be a contender with him when they don’t have the Tennessee crowd and home cooking. Their defense is terrible.

The playoff should be all but set this season. If conference championship games are an automatic qualifier, they shouldn't disqualify anyone either.

USC should be the only maybe, and only if they were blown the frick out by a team they already lost to.

And hence why they should not because no way Purdue who is not ranked to go to the playoffs because they might beat UM.

The only people that want this are fans and those in charge of conferences to guarantee they get a spot. I understand the value it may have but only if the conference champ is at least ranked top 10

I think OSU very much has a shot because the college committee likes them.

Sure, which is why no one should be eliminated this weekend, either. There's no one who showed they were better waiting behind them this year.
