Well they went to double overtime with a team you also went to overtime with.

Pretty sure they looked just as good as Bama.

The Playoffs show which Program has the better staff at preparing for a game with 5 weeks time (6 for Bama). I said it before, I think Saban could take Ark to the playoffs and be competitive with 6 weeks of planning time.

In overtime. And Bama had a little help from the refs, which OU did not.

You're still evading the point cupcake. Bama won, Landthieves didn't. As for your excuses about the refs, well excuses are for losers and fools; you're both.

re: conference champ, division champ.

Here are the wildcard teams in the NFL that won the super bowl and are considered world champion, but didn't win a division of conference.

•1980 Oakland Raiders–Super Bowl XV (played in 1981)
•1997 Denver Broncos–Super Bowl XXXII (played in 1998)
•2000 Baltimore Ravens–Super Bowl XXXV (played in 2001)
•2005 Pittsburgh Steelers–Super Bowl XL (played in 2006)
•2007 New York Giants–Super Bowl XLII (played in 2008)

I won't bother listing all the Cinderella NCAA basketball teams that didn't win a conference or division.

The object of the CFB playoffs is to put the best four teams in... not whoever some joe THINKS deserves to be there.

It is hard to make a case for any teams over the four that were in it. And Central Florida? nah... wouldn't have been in if the playoffs had eight teams... but maybe sixteen.

Listen here dumb arse. You're an absolute moron to claim OU didn't deserve to be there.

Without the refs, you lost.

OU looked BETTER than OU did. You looked like trash for three quarters. You needed the refs to extend drives. You needed the refs to call off a blocked punt to save you.

OU looked BETTER than Bama vs Georgia. Just because you are a blind homer, doesn't change reality. Georgia got screwed. Saying OU wasn't good and shouldn't have been in is absolutely ridiculous, and proves you're an idiot.

OU blew the game vs Georgia. Georgia blew the game vs Bama. Only difference. Bama needed help from the refs for Georgia to blow the game.

there is no way a team that had just dominated SC and Miami would have been 5th. lol

Clemosn would have beat Cuse if Bryant's leg was healthy and they almost won it despite that.

Georgia got destroyed by Auburn, a team Clemson beat. Yet you say UGA should be 2? lol

UGA played the weakest schedule this year. that's why i predicted they would be in the playoffs.

No.

Clemson looked as good as anyone all season and had quality wins. Oklahoma looked great as well, had quality wins, and had the Heisman Trophy winner.

Sounds like you are some SJW stumping for UCF. Their schedule is beyond pathetic and would not otherwise even deserve consideration had they rescheduled Tech, let alone without them.


Is there something in the rules that says you have to have a certain Strength of Schedule or is it because you *feel* that way?
