I honestly think OSU would beat Bama just as bad as 2014. I think we are just as complete a team as that year and Bama is worse.

It’s odd that the coaches poll and the A.P. both have LSU in first by a large margin, but this committee has a different view? Are they watching secret tape not available to the public?

love how LSU scheduling a game AT freaking Texas is actually hurting them in the eyes of the committee. That’s one of the ballsiest non-conference games you can schedule.


And this is why I have a huge fricking problem with the rankings. Texas isn’t “good enough” to bump up LSU’s strength of schedule but it was “good enough” to bump Baylor 5 spots.

So which is it, playoff comshitty? Is Texas a good win or did you guys shite the bed by bumping Baylor that many spots for beating them?

Many of us would have no issue if LSU gets the #1 seed, you guys have played some solid teams. To act like texas is a top 10 team though is a joke..


We agree but the committee did not when they bumped Baylor 5 spots for beating them.

THAT’S the fricking problem. There IS NO consistency to the committee.

Debatable, but you could be right, who knows.



Do you really think Penn State is a top 10 win? Who have they beaten?

You do realize some computer's have Alabama over LSU right? Why you need a human aspect too.



Not the old BCS computers. LSU is fat and away #1 in that system.

What Paul said might be true? Do you think the committee would admit it? No they wouldn't admit it!!Every person in college football, coaches, ADs, and fans know it would be wrong to reward Bama, and Nick Saban for playing a weak arse schedule,and giving them a week off from a physical game SECCG, and finally giving them 5 weeks to heal and prep for the 1 team that beat them at home.

Since Tua is out, probably. With Tua? They’d run you out of the stadium.

I hope we beat whoever we play, but in a worse case scenario we all know it would be better for us in recruiting, and our players coaches pyche if we lost to Clemson instead of Bama.

As I say in my weekly CFP rankings thread, Alabama, Clemson, and Utah have beaten ZERO currently ranked CFP teams. They're top 10 and have nothing to show for it. Baylor skyrocketed after beating a dog shite Texas squad. LSU dropped for drumming Arkansas and their justification was "Ohio State has multiple top 20 wins." The CFP committee is a biased political body whose intent is to stir up controversy and choose what will make the most money and draw the most eyes.



THIS! 1000x over.

I watched that game Saturday, unbiased, just to see the hype. Clifford is garbage, we’ve faced better in Nix and Trask, not to mention Tua. Fields floats his deep balls, so much so that lost DBs had a chance to catch up. Least not forget that the SEC is well aware of Fields. Complete team my arse!

LSU is the best team I’ve seen this year,but OSU has been spectacular as well. This is all still preliminary so gnashing teeth about it is kind of early. I do think the committee would like to not have an LSU -UA rematch in the semifinal if they can help it though and they arrange some of these rankings with an eye towards matchups. It made no difference to have UGA at 4 or 5 as their playin game is the SECCG

This is exactly the kind of scrutiny that needs to be hammered on the cfp committee calling them out on their bullshite...
