Was BYU in the playoffs last week? Is that why they were punished?

If BYU sat home and finished 11-1, they still miss the playoffs. Wrap that around your brain please and stop talking about this.

But I agree with you on the bama privilege. ND deserved the spot over Bama.

Because the Big 12 might be worse than the AAC this year. And none of their top teams played a big OOC game.

Tech may be really good but they may also be a mediocre SEC team. Hard to overstate how bad the big 12 was. Honestly kind of a joke that tech gets a bye over ole miss or AM or Oregon

Who is BYU’s best win? How does it compare to Bama’s?

Doesn’t matter, we are talking about conference championships only mattering when it’s convenient.

Even the 4 team playoffs made more sense than this horseshite

Probably because Bama beat Georgia earlier in the season and is 1-1 while BYU was 0-2 vs. Tech.

BYU was what, 11?

Tulane and James Madison got in over them because of auto qualifiers

BYU was never in the playoff. Virginia would have been in had they won

BYU got blown out twice, Bama split

It's not that hard to figure out

Please don't make me defend Bama. But who do you think is more likely to win a playoff game. Bama or BYU?

You're missing the point.

The issue is if if BYU getting blown out means they should drop than Bama getting blown out should ALSO mean they get dropped down.

How far Bama should have fallen from 9 is irrelevant.

Either they need to drop a spot or two like BYU or BYU should have stayed between ND and Miami at 11.

If BYU stays at 11, they are first team out anyways.

Ohio St over Georgia is what didn't make sense to me.

They didn’t want to render conference title games meaningless. Which they should have

Thing that drives me nuts the most is Bama got rolled by FSU. No one talks about that. FSU is garbage anyway you slice it, in the power conference that is given no respect. How is this not a penalty for Bama????
