I don't have a problem with it. Most teams are very mediocre this year. Bama v UGA will be the real national title game

And the Networks will want #1 vs. #2 even if there are undefeated teams out there.

I still don’t understand how OSU is higher than Michigan. I get it, Michigan hasn’t played anyone, but they’re undefeated. OSU has played 1 good team in Oregon, but they lost the game. In all the games OSU won, their schedule is similar to Michigan’s. It really makes zero sense

People are acting like Bama got unlucky against A&M and have steamrolled everyone else

They were a missed extra point away from OT against a fricking terrible Florida team, and trailed the entire game against A&M

They don’t deserve to be ahead of the undefeated teams

Almost losing to bad teams is >>>>>>>> then actually losing to a bad team plus almost losing to another bad team

Bama lost and trailed A&M for 49 minutes and held the lead once for 1 minute , a team that lost to Arkansas and Miss state. Congrats on the 10 minutes for being tied

Bama also was a missed XP away from going to OT against a terrible horrific Florida team. This Bama team deserves no benefit. They aren’t dominant.

Ranking them over undefeated teams is ranking Bama teams of past, not this one

Bama ain't getting into the Final Four if they have two losses and Oklahoma & Cincinnati stay undefeated. Big 10 winner would get the 4th spot if it's Ohio St or undefeated Michigan (St).

When's the last time an undefeated Power 5 conference winner missed the final four?

Never

A 1 loss power 5 champ has never missed the Playoff(Baylor and TCU fricked themselves by tying one year and not having a game)

What about a near loss to a god-awful team? Oklahoma was a yard away from losing to 1-6 Tulane. And Tulane had been practicing/staying in hotels in Tuscaloosa and Birmingham all week because of the hurricane

They got screwed out of having some sort of home field advantage too.

Should have played that game at Cajun Field in Lafayette, at least. That way, even if 30k Tulane fans didn’t show up, there wouldn’t have been 80k OU fans screaming while Tulane’s QB was trying to call plays and audible.

ESPN has a history of doing fricked up things with certain partnered Conferences as the TV monopoly of CFB.

How many times have we heard, even if Bama loses their last game, they're in. It doesn't matter they tell us.

So let's say undefeated #1 Georgia loses a close game to #2 or #3 Bama in the SEC title game.

And Cincy, OU are undefeated Conference Champs...and OSU is Conference Champs.

You're telling me Georgia is dropping out of the playoffs?

Hell ESPN would be shitting themselves and selling it to the committee as the "ultimate rematch" as ESPN sure does like their rematches when the SEC is involved as we all know while excluding other Conferences via obvious conflict of interest financial partnerships.

I’d say drop OU out. GA, Ohio State, Bama and Cincy.

We’ve seen the song and dance enough with OU. However, being ESPN’s mentality, it would be those P5 teams in and Cincy left out at #5.

Of course they wouldn’t. And they shouldn’t.

Congrats. You guys have unseated Alabama for the most fricking annoying fan base in the history of annoying fan bases

At least Bama fans can claim a few titles. You guys are just up north beating up on a bunch of slow retards, thinking you’re worth a shite. Yet every time y’all play a team worth a frick y’all get the doors blown off of y’all


I hate OSU fans. That’s all. Carry on


I guess you missed their playoff game vs Clemson last year.
Not to mention they beat us in 2014 along with blowing out Oregon for the National Title.

Don't let facts get in the way of your hatred.

Final
1 2 3 4 T
OSU 14 21 7 7 49
CLEM 14 0 7 7 28

im not sure exactly when it happens or how (bama might rightfully deserve it due to other teams losing or might not) but when georgia and alabama play on december 4th, i would bet quite a bit that it will be #1 vs. #2
