Logically, this makes no sense. Georgia should either be ahead of both one-loss conference champs, or behind both.
But as an “FU” to Corch? Totally.
Well played, people.

What a joke. Is it me or does it seem the argument they give for or against a team completely contradict the argument they make for or against another team?

We were never getting in over a one-loss Oklahoma team that won the rematch with Texas, never.

^ Exactly this. Oklahoma had a 3-point loss which they avenged yesterday. We had a 20 point loss to LSU while Tosu had a 29 point loss to Purdue. I know the term the Committee uses is “4 best teams”, but I think Oklahoma is more deserving of the slot than we are… even if I think we win by 10 on a neutral field.

It was a safe decision. OU brings everything the CFP wanted/needed without the tragic baggage Meyer would carry into the lead up. And they avoided the controversy of putting UGA in ahead of OU. No one who matters will defend OSU.

What the selection committee’s decision ignores is that the outcome of the SEC championship game is illegitimate due to poor refereeing. It is to the point that the underlying process has been delegitimized. It’s like an election in Venezuela.

OK, it is the Day After. I’m fine with a number five ranking, so please just beat Texas badly. We showed we have the best quarterback in the country going into next season. We will fight another day.

Don’t think we have a letdown against Hook ‘Em U. If indeed we don’t, it’ll be a massacre. Speaking of massacres, can’t wait to play ND next season. I hope we beat ’em 70-0 and break their smirking QB Ian Book (got to be the most obnoxious name in CFB history) into at least four pieces.

What in the hell is obnoxious about Ian Book’s name? I have never cared much about ND by any measurement, but someone’s name (alone) has never upset me. Admittedly, I didn’t think much of the ND SID changing the pronunciation of Theisman’s last name to promote a Heisman campaign, but his actual birth name didn’t offend me.

Norte dame’s schedule is atrocious and they will be blown out. Do you think if we had played Arkansas instead of LSU we’d be in the playoff?
If so, then why are we scheduling Clemson and Texas by choice. Would you have picked a rare road trip to Baton Rouge over Arkansas this year?
I love how the teams are described as one-loss or two-loss, which gives away the secret to increasing odds of playoff selection.
Don’t take AP classes. Take shop and be a 4.0 team.
Seems that one program on the field yesterday has figured this out.
Hope that road trip to Austin is worth it. Not sure why we need to decrease our chances of a playoff selection for a trip to a city that is open for visitation 365.

god i feel like an ND apologist.. the 13th game deal is one thing, but you really can’t knock them for the intent in their scheduling. you go schedule Stan, Mich, USC, and FSU on a normal year for those teams and tell me it is an easy schedule. 3 of those teams just happened to have unnaturally bad seasons.
Clemson is the team getting away with the joke schedule.
