Such nonsense. Nobody in playoff will test positive. It’s only for losers

We could win the National title having been destroyed in our last game.

Would be like some of those ancient titles claimed by other teams where they ignore a bowl loss to end the season

Bama is ranked #1. If no one beats them, who’s got a better argument?

Many teams have been crowned and still count titles under far worse circumstances. Winning a title due to Covid is much better than winning a title with players that resulted in NCAA probation.

Seems kinda lame to actually claim a title without playing a game.


So Cincy can't go and they have to forfeit. By Rant standards, they are "quitters." So, Georgia can't go and they have had to forfeit, even though the playoff committee gave them an extra 4 days to find their manhood. By definition, they too can now be described as "quitters" And may they rot in Hades with TAMU.

So the only team who didn't "quit" is the ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE. I say bring that trophy back where it naturally belongs, the Paul Bryant Museum.

Lol all you morons are giving Cincy way more credit than they deserve. It's gonna be hilarious when Bama goes scorched earth on their arse and all you crybaby torch bearers won't be heard from again.

Stop testing players that have 0% of being ill from COVID. This is fricking madness

They should. Winning by default takes the fun out of it.

Bama already won the title on 12/4. This entire playoff is a waste of fricking time.

For the last time, the rules state, in that scenario there will be no championship awarded.

Sorry...but you are wrong:

Fiesta and Peach Bowls – The CFP, bowl game and ESPN shall attempt to identify an alternate date for the game within one week of the scheduled date; if no date can be identified, the game would be considered no contest.

Playoff Semifinals (Cotton and Orange Bowls) if one team is unavailable to play – The unavailable team shall forfeit the game and its opponent would advance to the national championship game.

Playoff Semifinals (Cotton and Orange Bowls) if both teams are unavailable to play in one semifinal – The semifinal game would be declared "no contest" and the team winning the other semifinal game would be declared the CFP National Champion.

Playoff Semifinals (Cotton and Orange Bowls) if three teams are unavailable to play – The semifinal game in which two teams are unable to play would be declared "no contest." In the other semifinal game, the team unable to play shall forfeit the game and its opponent would be declared CFP National Champion.
