Mack Brown has it right.

He said Conference Championship games don't matter and stop talking about them. Said it didn't matter last year and didn't this year.

Conference championship games?

Is there a reason they don't?
I mean, how else do we judge teams?

Auburn helped Bama by just giving them a week off. Bama has been better off twice now by not winning the west.

They haven’t mattered since ESPN invented the eye test.

But it doesnt make sense that they dont matter. They pick the two teams who won their division and play them against each other on a field to determine who is the better team. Why are we using eyeball test over results on the field?

I bet Auburn would disagree.

My thoughts exactly. The selection board is a popularity contest for the elite. Penn State got fricked last year for OSU, and this year and for the second time in a decade Bama did not win the SEC , had a bye week, and got in over a conference champion. The system is wrong.

Conference Championship games matter mightily in a good conference. The Big 10 game I believe hurt OSU by exposing their weak team on a national level in prime time. That was bad football.

It mattered to Georgia

And I totally agree with Mac.
I love the Conference championships, don't get me wrong. And I think they should matter when it comes to the remaining bowl selection process AFTER the playoff selection has taken place, if necessary.

If I were an undefeated team in a power 5 conference I would opt out of the conference championship. There is nothing to gain by playing in it.

I get the idea. But if conference championships don’t matter, why have them.
Why have conferences at all. Just have the power 5 conferences schedule 12 games and then have the committee’s popularity contest.

If they don’t natter, then why is Georgia in and Auburn out? It’s stupid to say they don’t.

Gotta go to 8 teams so the conference championship means something
Posted on 12/3/17 at 1:17 pm to LSUDAN1
Conference championships matter. But so does winning. Two losses will be held against you, especially bad losses like OSU's. I see nothing wrong with judging a team on its entire season and not just one game, even if it is a championship game.

It mattered to UGA!

War on Bama!
The Bulls eye just got bigger!

If they didn't play conference championship games Wisconsin and Auburn would have been in. They are penalized for playing an extra game.
