Haven’t watched a single bowl game yet. Get rid of em. 16 team playoff and that’s it.

So, So Cal is in ACC now. ok

No, of course not. Freudian Slip .... it's all so confusing these days. Stanford and Cal are in the ACC - I think - I dunno anymore.

They need to rename the ACC the All Coasts Conference.

Thank you for the respectful correction.

How so, exactly?

The ACC got two teams in and has managed one win in 6 bowl games so far.

Oklahoma barely lost to Navy despite being down to 56 players, the same Navy team that beat Notre Dame's lone ranked victory (Army).

Navy 31 - #22 Army 13
Navy 21 - Massively depleted OU 20

Aside from folks REALLY hating the SEC, can someone explain to me how OU's depleted roster coming down to a single 2-point conversion to beating the same team that trashed Army in their final regular season game is somehow a black eye for the SEC?

Because everyone keeps pointing to this game as apparently "proof" the playoff committee got it right, because by that logic wouldn't the fact that both ACC playoff teams losing by multiple scores prove that they got it "wrong"?

Honestly, it just sounds like it's more of a "Alabama was the most likely 4th team from the SEC, and we hate Alabama, so we're all going to suck the cocks of teams from other conferences thanks to our soul-encompassing hatred of all things Alabama."

I doubt the same level of vitriol would be used if South Carolina had been the first team out.

Alabama LOST to a 6-7 Oklahoma team by 21. You might want to re-think what you just said.

Does anybody have a breakdown of which conferences are in each bowl to see the matchups?
