You REALLY need to take your loss on this, admit you were wrong and move on. It’s very pathetic!

Not National Championship games though. Funny, that is a pretty dramatic shift from your 2021 talk. Guess it only matters if the Bammers win. Anywho, good luck

Such ignorant arse comment by a ranter. Dr. Richard Williams spoke about injury with Ricky williams at AAOS conference. And Dr. Deryk Jones discussed it multiple times and specifically with fournette. Injury is a career ender for running backs.

His case was interesting. Not many appreciate how amazing it was that he was able to even have an nfl career all. Same injuries ended careers of Maurice jones drew (lisfranc), Ricky Williams, and fournette as well (lisfranc). High ankle sprain will never really heal and forefoot failure is inevitable as a result.

I think Lynyrd might have been the first player to opt out because his team was in a mid-tier bowl and he didn’t want to risk injury before the NFL draft.
Significantly different landscape and financial situations vs now. NIL and NCAA control significantly changes things too. The message here probably being: “sec, big 10, ACC, fix your damn championship selection, but we’ll bail you out this year!!” Too much money at play. But, in 2016–Clemson and Washington were both in the top 4 going into their championship week. Both win. So, dropping them would be rough. So big 10 was only getting 1 into playoffs. Though as you mentioned rough for penn st given their win vs osu.

I'll clarify. In 2016, Penn State, the B10 Champion, was left out of the CFP playoff in favor of Ohio State, a team it had beaten during the regular season. In 2014, B12 Co-Champs, TCU & Baylor, decided to game the system by not declaring a Conference champ, hoping to get both teams selected.

While I agree, do you not think it is somewhat problematic from an optics/fairness point that they were jumped by an idle Miami team?
I think the committee fricked up by putting byu in front of Miami BEFORE this week. The message to ND is clear but the BYU jump still looks bad imo.
The reality being SEC/BIG 10 has more clout to protect their championship game integrity on economics alone even. Somewhat surprised they bailed out the ACC but likely market share issue and a join a conference message to ND.

Besides the fact penn state was not the co-champ in 2014, good call, Nostradamus!!

Penn St was left out after they won the B10 championship. The B12 Co-champs in 2014, both one loss teams, missed the dance. No one will blink twice if the SEC runner-up with three losses misses the cut...Bama was a bubble playoff team going into the game. Playing poorly and getting beat should have consequences.
You live in a trailer, don’t you?

Very dumb opinion, you are not bright. The committee ranked Bama ahead going into game. If a loss=costs playoff and additional revenue, conferences will be forced to strongarm ncaa. Huge revenue at stake and the leverage belongs to conferences.

Not a chance. No way the conferences sacrifice that money for a team that was the 5th conference team in the CFP going into the conference championship game

I think most fans are technically okay with the concept of leaving them out—they just haven’t looked great in several weeks.
Still, leaving them out = no more big 10 championship, no more sec championship. Will be no collective ageement or “let’s revise our process for choosing game”. So, you’re talking losing well over 50 million per game in revenue.

I can’t imagine that I’m the only one to deliver this bad news to you, but you are in fact a moron. Sorry, but you obviously lack the IQ to parse the events as they unfolded. You cannot take a snapshot after the act leading to the foul was committed and call it legal. That’s yelling about your liberty to carry your gun in public as you’re being arrested. Yeah, you can have your gun out. That’s legal. BUT, unfortunately for you, shooting those 12 people before you left the office is still a crime.

The SEC office can be wrong even though they are the prevailing authority. They can say whatever the frick they want without repercussion. It is very easy for them to say what they did after the fact. It is a judgement call. I disagree with their judgement.

Dude was a mental case. He would have said this no matter which team selected him. His love for the lettuce was also an obsession.
He plays it off as just wanting to get high, but in reality he was very limited at the time due to a chronic high ankle sprain. It’s outside of the joint capsule so there was not going to be typical swelling or talar instability. People thought he was just full of shite about the injury but it was a career killer for many former athletes.
Things like tightrope surgery have helped but you’re still going to have compression forces widening talar dome over time with push-off while running and pivoting from planted foot

Even with a schedule that went their way. Big Ten has the 2nd most power among the conferences. This isn’t a mountain west team we are talking about here
Ehh, well they only played two teams above 500 regular season. And lost one of 2. Even Miami may have had a better resume
It’s at least clear that beating only one team with a winning record all year doesn’t bode well for playoff success.

But he’s actually wrong, the head of the CFP committee today said strength of schedule was a factor, and also how did you perform.
lol, no he isn’t wrong. It’s a very minor factor and really only applies to weaker conferences. No one in the sec or big10 will be scheduling with the ACC or big 12, etc within next couple of years. That’s how you keep them out.

We saw GT damn near beat Georgia.
This is EXACTLY why ooc needs to be re-evaluated. Currently, there is perceived sec/big 10 superiority. So, playing and potentially losing to big 12, ACC, or mtn west only diminishes those opinions. And then, the big 12 and sec don’t want to hurt each other’s chances do mutual truce of schedule benefits each.

We’ve heard everything you have to stay and you have no valid points, so we’re going to make fun of your crying. Sorry.
The irony is that you would make fun of anyone when you’re actually the retard. If you are in the sec and play 3 fcs schools and go 10-2, you are going to be ranked ahead of any sec school going 9-3. Even if 2 of their losses is Ohio state, Oregon
