Ole Miss is playing a team they already played to play a team they already played.

tRant learns there are sometimes rematches in a playoff. News at 11.

Fun fact.
The 2007 New England Patriots, who went 16-0 in the Regular Season, played a team in the AFC Champ game, whom they already had beaten Week 2 of the Regular Season, in order to play a team in the Super Bowl, whom they had already beaten in the last game of the Regular Season.

Fun fact: a 12 team CFP is stupid.

Why?
Because all playoffs are designed for entertainment, not to figure out who the best team is.

Wrong for any sport that has multiple game series within their playoff format

The Saints first ever playoff win was in the Superdome against a Rams team that they had lost to in the Superdome 6 days before. We played the Rams 3 times within 6 weeks that season.

If Alabama makes the championship game this year, they will play 17 games.
18/19/20 year olds shouldn’t be playing this many football games in a single season, and the pro prospects on these teams are going to completely check out.
It’s all stupid. The BCS was the absolute best. Like a Japanese game filled with arbitrary unfairness and great joy.

You are going to be shocked to find who LSU beat in the semifinals of the college World Series this year.

Once again, we’re not talking about college baseball. We’re talking about college football.

Those teams weren’t chosen and seeded by a committee to do all of that.
A&M had the better SOS and SOR over Ole Miss and had a stronger victory against their best similar opponent and the scoring edge against common opponents. A&M objectively should have gotten 6th seed, which would have also avoided the OP scenario with Ole Miss.
quote:
Thanks to the ACC's pratfall of a season, two Group of 5 teams made the final field. That means both the No. 5 seed and the No. 6 seed get to play teams from outside the big-boy conferences, while the No. 7 seed lands a genuine contender on the docket in Round 1.
The loser of this lottery is Texas A&M, and that's a pretty tough take to defend.
Let's look at the résumés.
Team A: No. 10 in FPI, best win vs. FPI No. 3, loss to FPI No. 13, No. 3 strength of record, five wins vs. bowl-eligible teams, six wins vs. FPI top 40
Team B: No. 12 in FPI, best win vs. FPI No. 15, loss to SP+ No. 6, No 6 strength of record, four wins vs. bowl-eligible teams, four wins vs. FPI top 40
They're close, but the edge in nearly every metric is with Team A. That's Texas A&M.
Or how about this: Against five common opponents, A&M has a scoring edge of 2 points, including a far better win over LSU, their best common foe.
Is it splitting hairs? Of course, but that's the committee's job. And the results of that hair-splitting are the difference between Ole Miss getting a rematch with a Tulane team it beat by 35 in September or facing off against a red-hot Miami eager to prove it belonged in the field.

Oh frick off. In HS they play a jamboree, 10 game season, and up to 5 playoff games. In less time too because they don't get such a large break in between the season and the playoffs.
