I can live with it.

Congrats on the Fruit Bowl win. Maybe next year you guys can celebrate a big Tangerine Bowl victory.

It don't matter. The best two teams are still playing for the title.

There's a HUGE difference between the best team and the 4th best team


Sure, this year. #4 beat #1 just two years ago. God some of you have short arse memories.

Oh wait, I guess it makes sense a Bama fan would forget that one.

What 3 years of the playoffs has shown is that the ideal number is 6. 1 and 2 get byes. That would have worked well every year and it keeps the regular season interesting because you REALLY want to get into that bye slot.

100% true.

I like this standard for correctness. Makes it much easier.

You are wrong. You will say a team can go undefeated to guarantee their way in

All p5 champs are undefeated. Then what?


Now I won't run it in how I just owned you if you graciously admit you were wrong

Im only complaining because the "committee " took t OSU over their conference champ due to $$$$ and fan base.


And there it is. Bluebloods will get the benefit of doubt in a tie-breaker every time and that's bullshite.

I love this shite - "The 4 best" or the "4 most deserving."

I box as a hobby and when I knock someone out I always consider if I beat the better guy or should I fight the more deserving because his mom told me he eats his wheaties and works really hard and is such a good boy.

What are you talking about? So you would rather the 4 best teams? So you think it should have been USC over Washington then correct?

I am right.

I really enjoy this. Thanks for not making me back anything up to claim I'm right.

Well, you said that. That's one way. Either way, every team knows winning is how you get to the playoff. They know a committee will select the four best teams based on specified criteria. They know if they are ranked #5 or lower by that committee, they're out.

Even James Franklin gets it. Not sure why it's hard for others.

Nothing changes. Pick the four best teams.

The English language just owned you, but I won't "run" that in.

Are you still drunk from last night? Pay attention. I want to box you right now. Not because you can stand in a ring with me, but because you are "deserving" with your expert analysis on this topic.
