With their defense and Joe Burrow going off, I think LSU will beat them comfortably.

In most years a single game is all that is necessary, this is such a year as only 2 teams were above the rest. A 4 team playoff gets a step further when you have 3 instead of 2 in real debate. After 4 you are just arguing for a team that was not good enough in the first place but because it may be your team, you want an unwarranted 2nd chance.

Should definitely be expanded, but not too much.

6 teams, top 2 having a bye. One spot designated for the top non-P5 team

I think Displaced buckeye is just arguing for entertainment and discussion....however...

What does it take for people on this board to recognize (and ignore) mindless trolling, as was done by the OP, UCFACTS4LIFE, et.al????

I REALLY wish stupid trolling threads would be deleted and/or ignored totally. The forum would be much more interesting imo. All this trolling and mindless reactions to it gets pretty tiresome...

At least UCF has a championship this season.


Were you annoyed that Ohio St made the playoffs in 2016 without a conference championship while the B1G champ, who beat tOSU, didn't?

I don't like it. It seems that the playoff is forcing a shift from "who is having the best season" to "who has the best team". UCF has had 2 undefeated seasons, but the committee doesn't even think they are worthy of a top 4 seeding. Obviously they don't view the G5 as worthy of being in FBS, so why are they even in FBS?.

I can see if there are 4 undefeated P5 conference champion schools, then sure, piss off UCF. But last year bama didnt even win their division and made it in over UCF. Sure, bama would destroy UCF, but If UCF can't make the playoff over a team that hasn't even won their conference, then they aren't ever going to make it and they should create a new division for G5 to compete in.

You just did two things: first, you contradicted yourself; second, you just proved my point beautifully. You've been posting your opinions and acting like they're some irrefutable, objective fact.

Opinions aren't objective, and opinions are all you've provided. You've been doing exactly what you're calling others out for: pushing subjective nonsense and fact.

Yes. Penn State should have been #3.

Neither of those things happened.

No, I haven't.

I'd love for you to point to one opinion that I said was a fact. Just one...

You've been going to bat for UCF based off nothing but your opinion, then you make posts like this when an actual fact is posted

Oh I've been over your opinion for many posts now -- it's worthless because it's not based on anything factual. The final point I wanted to make was highlighting your hypocrisy. Which I've done, so

Well, that's a lie. Again, you simply don't agree.

You can't actually refute it, so instead, you've decided to have a weird little melt about it.

Our AD Danny White is on record saying P5 games are easier for UCF the last 2 years than our in conference games. Food for thought.


Please shut up if you are going to use this as an argument.
You are doing the rest of your UCF fans a disservice with your stupidity.....put that on the record!

Maybe the 4th spot should be a play-in game.

I think with the exception of this year they got the 4 teams right.
Just looking at the lines of the games tells you they missed on two of the teams.

Fair? Equitable? Do you honestly believe UCF could win the playoff?
