The committee is telling us that brand and name of the university matters.

The committee is telling us they valued Bama's 6th ranked SOS over Notre Dame and Miami's SOS in the 40's.

Strength of Schedule is valued just as much as head-to-head when comparing similar teams, according to the rules.

Again, the committee’s stupid decisions with Oregon last year and ND this year are the only reasons most of y’all are upset.

Alabama should have been 9 above ND the whole time. The last minute shuffling and ND vs Miami stuff is ridiculous and unforced. They did the same thing with Oregon last year, if I remember correctly.

Bama homer, homering.

3 losses.
A blowout loss in their last game.
A loss to an unranked team.

Bama is literally the only team that could get in with that resume.
Even if I were a Bama fan I would think it's ridiculous

Yeah Alabama would struggle to put 17 on aTm. Oklahoma should be a MUCH more winnable game for Alabama.
They struggle with that against anyone right now

Oh my god another rematch????



How hard would it have been to send Bama to Ole Miss or A&M or flip JMU and Tulane

Horrible job by the committee

No way James Madison should make a playoff. Yes the conference champs have a spot, but this will be boring.

Just say the obvious part Nick, the G5 needs their own playoff

JMU and Tulane have 0 chance to win this.

Herbie trying to justify the Notre Dame/Miami flip is pathetic.

Of course Nick is going to go off on G5s since he's been bitching about them existing at all for at least a decade now.

I guarantee if the conference champion requirement wasn’t a thing that UTa would have gotten in over BYU. Last 2 in would have been ND and the Horns.

This.

People can argue it all they want. The issue most of us have is in the quote above. No other team with the exact same wins/losses/criteria would have been placed in the playoff.

Alabama got in because they are Alabama.

The only way for Miami to get in was to place Bama at 9, because it is very clear at this point that Bama was never being left out.

F Notre Dame.

Join a conference or stfu.
The Big10 & SEC should refuse to schedule them in the regular season to force their hand

Miami got in because the ACC weren’t gonna get a playoff team without them. Norte Dame would’ve gotten in if Virginia won last night.


That's exactly what happened. There's no other reason that they would flip Miami and ND after several weeks without either playing.

I don't like all the anger because the only solution that anyone in power will come up with is to expand the playoff.

I get why the idea to do top 5 conference champs. But man, James Madison and Miami are about to get absolutely trounced.
