Ohio State you should be angry w playoffs

If ND was not treated differently than everyone else, they would likely NOT be 12-0
They play BBall in the ACC and should play football there, which means they would have had to go thru Clemson to get into the playoffs.
Do not say that they are treated equally.
They get another week to plan and to allow any injuries to heal.
They should either be in a conference for all major sports, or not.

BTW, I am not a fan of Urban or Ohio State.
...just pointing out the lack of fairness.

Ohio State did not warrant a playoff berth. Their loss was a shitty loss and they played shitty against a couple of teams that had no business being that close to a "playoff team"
I do agree with your premise that ND should have to play in a conference to be eligible for the playoff. Either every team should be on an equal footing for games played once in the playoff (13 games unless affected by some other event: hurricanes, 9/11 type scenarios), or freeze the final rankings after rivalry weekend and do not count the Conference Championship Games into the determination of the final four.

Play 8 conference games. Then Purdue isn't on the schedule. Schedule The Citadel the week before the Michigan game. Make the playoffs. Profit.

you forgot getting killed in the semifinal bc backdooring into the playoff doesn't help you once the ball is teed up

Ohio State has gotten in without winning their division or playing in a conference championship game lol
Posted on 12/3/18 at 11:21 am to rbdallas
Why do you place more importance on OSU’s win over NW on Dec. 1 than ND’s win over NW on Nov. 3?

Lol Purdue wasn't before the Michigan game.
Purdue is just one team. You guys shite the bed against Iowa the year before.

One is being played for a championship. The other has no impact on one.

Oklahoma did the exact same thing without repercussions.
Texas Tech, Kansas, Oklahoma State. Those were all 1 score wins. I'll give you Army but they're not world beaters either. Kansas wasn't a one score game.
The only two one score wins Ohio State had against "shitty" teams were Nebraska and Maryland.
Yes, Purdue and I agree but the rest of your statement makes zero sense when compared against a team that did make the playoffs.

No shite. What does a game in 2017 have to do with 2018 again?

Not angry about not making the playoffs, but it is a slap in the face having Georgia ranked ahead of Ohio State...even though, it doesn't matter what a team is ranked after #4.

In 2016. By your logic 2015 CFP Semifinal. Clemson 37 - Oklahoma 17. So why is Oklahoma in?
I get Purdue and I agree that Ohio State shouldn't be in but there are some retarded arguments being posted here.

You’re right, Northwestern gained magical powers and was allowed to use ineligible players for the Big Ten title game only.

They would definitely be 13-0. They could just schedule Austin Peay, or Alcorn St., or Middle Tennessee St., or The Citadel. Or any other b.s. team that OSU, Georgia, Alabama, and the other power teams schedule. I feel like some posters don't use their brain when they come up with that argument.
And no, ND should not be "forced" to join a conference. I can only assume you're a socialist and opposed to free markets. ND can do whatever it wants with its program. They've always chosen to go their own way, and look how strong their brand is as a result.
I wish they would blow up the conference monopoly altogether.

There's nothing magical about it.
There is a long history of humans attributing "magic" to things they don't understand.

I agree about Oklahoma but we were discussing OSU in the OP, but I would assume that they valued OK win versus Texas in the championship game higher than they did OSU beating Northwestern in yall's game
