Can we agree that if LSU is not #1, the Committee is a biased, irrational fraud?

Last week, by the Committee's own reasoning, UGA was a playoff team. That is, if the year had ended after the regular season, the Committee itself reasoned that UGAs talent and accomplishments were worthy of a playoff berth. LSU destroyed the Dawgs, dismantled them, eviscerated a playoff team. And did so in a virtual road setting, no less.

Meanwhile, Wisconsin - again by the Committee's own reasoning- was well outside the playoffs if the season had ended. Yet OSU struggled with them in a neutral venue.

We have more Top 15 wins than OSU and we just slaughtered a team that even the Committee thought was deserving of the playoffs 24 hours ago. There is no rational basis for leaving us at number two. None. The Committee is a fraud if they do it.

Yes! LSU just skulldragged the COMMITTEE'S #4 team. Basically what the committee felt was a playoff team. How can you not reward that? Also add in that OSU struggled with a lesser team.

Doesn't matter.....they will do what they want to do, which is to put OSU #1, because they are not accountable to anyone!

I mean we should wait to see what they do first and then discuss.

What you said is 100% true. The question is will they completely ignore the facts and justify there own goals with manipulattion.

They love to just claim top 25 wins like they are weighted the same.

But our 4 big wins trump all but maybe 1 of osu's.

I had determined that weeks ago. Didn’t need this to make up my mind.

We can disagree with their decision and think their logic is flawed but if you think it's biased, maybe you are biased, if you think its a fraud well then maybe you are just irrational.

System is broken, corrupt or both if LSU is not #1.

I wouldn’t say “fraud”. That’s a term with a specific meaning. If it happens, I would say they are affected by bias., no doubt.
BUT, I think when the . final results are announced, everything will fall into place.

This thread cracks me up. How ironic an LSU fan would say the committee is biased if his team is not #1.

LSU does have the best resume but us, Clemson and Ohio St would all pass the eyeball test as being number one.

For me I could care less because I want this LSU team to one day be considered on of the best teams ever and beating Clemson and Ohio St is required to do that. To be the best you have to beat the best and right now Clemson having won 2 of the last 3 national championships says they are the best.

The big problem with this committee is the EYE TEST. The eye test is a personal opinion.

It may not be Clemson’s fault that they played crap teams & rested their starters in 4th Qtr. But you have to reward teams for the grueling schedules they endured & won em all.

OSU or LSU: simple question. Which conference proved to have the better teams? SEC’s top tier teams are better IMO. And LSU beat them ALL
