quote:

"... If we had assembled as a team on Sunday and rankings hadn't told us for the previous weeks, 'We're in, we're in, we're in. Take care of business, take care of business' ... Hey, I get it. But these rankings shows, like, what's the point? Why send these signals and get the hopes [up] of these teams, these coaches, these kids on the team, that believe they're doing everything necessary. It just felt, in that room, a collective sense of the rug being taken out from under us, without any explanation."


How about fixing this first!

Same as last year, the CFB Committee "re-does" their final rankings even with most teams playing, disregarding their SEASON-LONG rankings as if they were just weekly teases.

Notre Dame believed they were in based on the weekly rankings, were told they were in with the penultimate rankings and suddenly, in the final vote...the Committee flip-flops again while Notre Dame sits at home...

....and they ignore Alabama's disastrous showing on TV for all to see....(who seriously wants to see this team, who got blown out twice this year, while no other Playoff team got blown out once?

You can't organize and a run a Playoff if you constantly change the implied rules midstream and just rescramble the rankings at the end as if a season's long precedent meant nothing.

Do you think this matters at all?

What is the number one rule?

Correct.

The committee should have never done this. They need to stop it.

ND was ahead of bama

Bama then did this:

7 point nail biter win against a 5-7 team

21 point arse raping where they couldn’t do anything


They then jumped ND because of this

Tough shite.. there’s 12 spots.. they choose the path they’re on with no conference affiliation.. no conference championship possibility and no support from other institutions in a conference.

12 fricking spots means you can’t bitch anymore.. notre Dame… they have no one to blame but themselves

I agree with this. Notre Dame is on an island and they chose to be there. This is what happens when you’re not part of a union. Collusion is a problem for them.

On the other hand, I don’t expect Notre Dame to be a cuck and just take it. They are going to go to the mats and fight for themselves as they should.
