If they are undeserved then they will be bounced out quickly

Yeah because 2 extra undeserved teams get in.


So if an "undeserving" team won the national championship pretty convincingly, what does that say about the "deserving" teams?

It's easy to get up for one game a year. Rest your starters the rest of the way. Any team could do that.

Ohio State sure did get bounced out quickly last year in the Sugar Bowl.

Start seeing? Art Briles has already stated that they see no reason to schedule tough ooc teams.

And it doesn't matter.

If you have an easier road and still beat 2/4 playoff teams, what difference does that make vs a hard regular season? And there are weeks off before the playoff starts. Any bangs and bruises will be healed, anyone not seriously injured is healthy.

Bama fan already making up excuses, cool.

That same schedule whooped your boys' arse last year

OSU was the best team at the end of the year last season and might be this season but that doesn't change the fact that their schedule this year is weak. And how did their schedule beat Bama last year?

So you're saying the great Coach Nick Saban couldnt get his players up for their biggest game of the year?

It is easy to get up for one game. It isn't easy to dominate two top notch opponents

We play a tough game every week. Urban Liar couldn't do that and faked a heart attack and left the Florida program in shambles.

Nice dodge of the issue at hand.

You talk about "deserving" teams, yet in the old system the "deserving" teams for the championship game actually both got beat in their semifinal games.

Oh Look, it's the annual "Lets bitch and whine about how some top ranked team, not in the SEC has an easy schedule and has an easy road to the playoff/BCS". Ohio State kicked the shite out of 3 ranked teams to end last season. If they run the table, they will still have to beat 2 top 4 teams to repeat. It doesn't matter if you have 0 losses or 2, if you get in, beat the teams in front of you or Sierra Tango Foxtort Uniform.

I'm sure if Bama gets in and doesn't win. Saban can find another lame excuse like the players didn't care or were worried about that draft. Maybe this time it will be they were so stressed out because of how unfair it is that Ohio State had an easier schedule.

I didn't want playoffs, so they do suck.


People said TCU and Baylor didn't schedule any good OOc teams but the only good one that Onio State played in the regular season beat them.

Yeah, it's brutal having to get up for a game after a whole fricking month off. Sorry Ohio State is stealing your thunder by being the best team.

They are hammering a top 3 or so team in tbe ACC with a qb making his first true road start. VT is a pretty loud venue. Ohio st is that good dude.

would have been much better having Bama play FSU for the National title right?

Baylor's OOC was a huge joke and TCU didn't win their conference and including the B1G CG I think tOSU played and beat as many ranked teams as those 2 did.

The acc blows, but no way is this VT top 3.

The Top 3 are Clemson, GT, and FSU. One of these three are going to win the title and maybe even make the final 4.

VT may be 10 out of 14.
