Beaver-Poke Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 Undefeated P5 conference champion Washington Undefeated P5 conference champion Florida State Undefeated P5 conference champion Michigan One-loss conference champion Texas, which must be really, really, really, really, really good to go into Tuscaloosa and kick the crap out of mighty Alabama by double-digits Tell me I'm wrong if Georgia doesn't rally? Otherwise, the committee is telling us that neither conference championships nor head-to-head really matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a four team playoff with no auto bids I am staunchly a “best four teams” person, and I don’t think FSU is one of the four best teams right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see six legitimate contenders for the top four and Florida State isn’t one of those for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. In alphabetical order for me it’s Bama, Georgia, Michigan, OSU, Texas, UW. Not sure where I would slot in FSU, but it’d be behind all those schools.

I think Michigan is the best team in the country and I think Ohio State is right there with them. If Michigan loses to Iowa, the Big 10 may not get a team in the playoff.

I think it’s going to be a long night in the committee room. Better break out the coffee, smokes and cocaine tonight. I think Michigan should dominate but you never know.

masterfrog Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 The committee will have to make some big decisions and I don’t think it will be unanimous. Liberty vs SMU won’t be easy either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well sure but if they win how can you keep them out? They didn't penalize Ohio State for winning games with its third-team QB in 2014. In fact if you can keep winning games with your third-team QB you must be one heck of a team. Actual on-the-field results have to matter.

SMU is probably the better team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzzyOzz Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I'm just waiting for the 12 team playoffs, 4 teams was obviously broken.. The top conferences are the sec,big 10, big 12, ACC, Pac2+MWC?, AAC, Sunbelt, and the rest.. So is it Power 6+6, 5+7, 4+8? There should be answers soon, lol after they sort out their other rankings again.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying C-USA is as good as the ACC? Not even close. There’s not many top athletes in CUSA. Liberty didn’t play one P5 this year. Not one. They baked cupcakes all year.
