Thanks for having me. I promise not to be as big of a douche this time if we play.

If my team was number 1 and a bunch of shite fell perfectly for a 2 loss team to be playing us, I would be talking a lot of shite too.

Its within .09 points though. Very close:


.0009 actually. About as equal as you can get. I really wish they kept the BCS and just added 2 teams. I dont understand why we needed a committee. The whole reason we needed 4 teams is for years like this when defending champion Clemson can go undefeated and be left out. Or in 2011 when Bama and Okie State were separated by the slimmest of margins and the one with the conference championship got left out and went on to win the Fiesta Bowl for all their troubles. I didnt feel we needed a change in the manner in which teams were ranked, we just needed to add an extra slot or two because sometimes there were more than 2 deserving teams.

In the end they get it right, but it's still a clown show.

They trot this guy out to make up BS on the fly to justify it all.

It's a joke.

It nearly mirrors the BCS. Go with that, call it a day, and everyone knows how to get in the top 4.

Hmm, they don’t really explain how they came to the rankings, regardless, it does all look pretty close. I just assumed LSU would be 1 because of the polls advantage.

Shows that Wisconsin isn’t outrageous though, which is what I’ve been saying.

I honestly don’t remember that. Thought we had some solid discussion, but maybe that was just because I thought your username and avatar were GOAT



ETA: Sorry, just saw the discussion about the breakdown after. That’s a damn close rank

The guy is making some good points and backing up his claims with links and metrics. Even if you don't agree, nothing wrong with what he's posting. Part of what makes this site so great is that other school's fans can offer their opiniins.

Billingsley FTW!!!

Looks like Sag having us at 3 behind Clemson ( ) is the difference.

Can I bump all of your BCS slobbering next week when LSU beats UGA and moves right back into #1 in their computers?

For the first quarter or so we were all sweating and then the FG block happened. Whatever happened to Beanie?

Definitely.

Ita gonna be close. The only computer that may flip is Wolfe. 4 of 6 were Ohio State before last week and have been that way for a while.

If the AP and Coaches remain the same it'll be very tight or if Ohio State gains a few 1st place votes then it just solidifies it.

Injury prone in the NFL. Tore his Achilles and that ended it.

Exactly. I find it comical that people bitched and moaned about the BCS for nearly its entire existence, yet every year since the CFP was created, the committee rankings nearly align with mock BCS rankings.

I don't think it necessarily shows the committee gets it right as much as it shows the committee wasn't needed in the first place.

The people I watched the game with were dismissing OSU before the game and I kept telling them they were crazy. The "oh shite" look on their face when he broke off that long run was priceless.
