We had 7 teams that could make valid arguments for the 4 spots

We can blame the people who voted to wait another year for the 12 team playoff

Selfishly I would love to see a 12 team playoff right now

The ACC is a joke of a football league.


I hate this narrative. Shows exactly how stupid people are when they make comments like this. You just make bullshite comments with nothing to back it up. That joke of a league you speak of was 6-4 against our big boy football conference. Let me paint the picture clearer for you so you can get a real good look at it.

SEC VS. ACC: 4-6
ACC VS. SEC: 6-4

What league is a joke again? I would also go out on a limb and say in all of those matchups I bet the SEC team was favored. Why were they favored you ask? Probably because Vegas thinks the SEC teams are “better”. Lo and behold the team you think is “BETTER” doesn’t always win. This is why we play the game. FSU was royalled screwed and anyone thinking otherwise has bama nut all over their face.

The fact of the matter is if Florida State got in over Alabama, Nobody would be whining about it outside of Alabama fans

like it or not results on the field is what truly matters. Florida State didn’t lose Alabama did.
Everybody would have accepted that

FSU’s biggest F/U to the committee is to put an arse whipping on Georgia in the Orange Bowl !

Go it wrong? Who would FSU replace? All four plus Georgia are better teams.
It's your opinion that all four plus Georgia are better teams. Is Washington better than FSU? Is Texas better than FSU? Texas has a loss; FSU is an undefeated Power 5 team.

Actually #6 Georgia is 14 point favorite over FSU in Orange Bowl. That should be a hint.
So why even play the regular season games? Let's just have Vegas pick the Playoff teams based on odds.

Or may be we could look at recruiting ratings or average the rankings from the last five years.

Why play the regular season games?

Hell, let's do the same thing in every sport. Let's just let sports writers pick playoff teams in the NFL, NBA, and MLB. Let's let Glenn Guilbeau pick playoff contenders.

All you have to do is ask yourself one simple question... had UGA beaten Bama, would Texas have gotten in?

We will never definitively answer that, of course... but I have my opinion on it.

That demonstrates the corruption.

who gets in is supposed to based off of what DID happen so far, not what will happen in the future

The more I’m enjoying it. FSU should have got in but this is fun to watch as rival school. My FSU friend swore he will never watch CFB. I told him next year FSU will be 12 seed and Liberty will claim automatic bid.

The banter is what makes rivalry fun and the unknowns make it fun

Wrong, it's the 4 best teams not the 4 most deserving teams lol. Committee got it right. It's always been the 4 best teams.

So Alabama still would have been in if Georgia scored a late TD and won a close game? Or would they be out with two losses?

You know the answer to that.

If it’s the 4 best teams, then Georgia would be in and Washington would be left out. If it’s 4 most deserving teams, then fsu would be in and Bama left out. What they did is just make up their own rules.

Probably because of the Penix-Nix Heisman duel early on, Washington and Oregon were both promoted too far up the polls early on and by the end of the season gummed things up for the bubble teams.
