Ok, then reduce the amount of teams in the playoffs because there aren't 9 teams better than Alabama.

Wrong. Notre Dame and BYU would’ve been more competitive than bama today.

They need to go back to recency bias. How are teams playing at the end of the season? Are they on an upward or downward trajectory? This used to be part of the criteria but with the new focus on not penalizing losses in “meaningless” conference championship games, I think this has been lost.

I agree that a team shouldn’t be punished for losing an extra game in which they are competitive. But, in the case of bama this year, if you have played like utter dogshite for a month and are completely non-competitive in the CCG, that should matter.

Notre Dame. Say what you want about their schedule but they would’ve competed.

How bout the Round Table that was in Mendenhall and still present Walnut Hills in Vicksburg. Both go back decades.

There was also a Round Table in Columbia. 40 miles East of McComb on Hwy 98 but it closed sometime before Katrina.

Was like going back in time. Old black ladies would cook and serve the food and you would have a mix of nearly every social status breaking bread together.

ETA - looks like it remained open well past Katrina but burned in early 2015.

8 was the right answer. P4 (5 at the time) conference champions (CCG’s matter) plus 4 at large bids. Caveat for the conference champions that they must be in the top 15 or else their slot becomes an additional at large.

This was the way but the $$$ spoke. And it ain’t over yet.

He lead the team with integrity and character. His teams played hard, tough physical football. He recruited at the level of Nick Saban. He left LSU in a very good shape and was twice the coach his successor was. He loved his players and his players loved him, and that cannot be said about the man who succeeded his successor.

if you keep this shite at 12 you need BCS computer polls again plus the quality win metric and no auto bids for anybody and just shitcan the conference title games. how about BEST 12? and no automatic bids? that would keep these shite G5 schoosl out.

I don’t disagree but conferences and ND will never agree to a system without guarantees.

Hell, since I’ve long been told that non-playoff bowl games are “meaningless” and now it seems that conference title games are also “meaningless”, let’s get rid of all of them and just go to a 16 team playoff with no tie-ins. Top 16 in final rankings get in. Everyone else’s season is over. Then we don’t have to read about how unwatchable the meaningless bowl games are.
