We really need someone like Kenpom or Bart Torvik to create football rankings using openly-disclosed algorithms.


It's truly insane they don't have this

What really messes things up is the silly Group of 5 automatic bid.
They need to stop pretending.

I know it would chap folks, but go down to 4 sixteen team conferences and that’s your playoff pool. 4 conference champs, 8 at large. I’d be fine reducing the numbers to 10 even.

If the g5 wants to do a BCS style championship that would be good too.

Not many SEC schools up in there. Stanford is at or near the top of pretty much every single one of them.


Only SEC grads I ever worked with were from Vanderbilt during my 20y on Wall Street...Lol.

Getting 6 teams in the playoff when there are only 7 at large bids is just not going to happen.

It really does suck for Vandy that so many teams did well this year in the conference. Any other year 10-2 would be in the playoffs.

Absolutely, and they will use this to expand to 16 teams.

Vandy should be in. The fans need to be vocal. They’ve earned it and are a legit contender.
