CFP Race 2024

Since I don't wanna say, to be a fly on the wall, I wish I had some cameras in Tuscaloosa right about now. I bet it's utter fvcking meltdown. :ROFLMAO:

Bama board is gold right now. Saban’s run has turned them into the most entitled fan base in America. 3 losses in a transition year and they’ve decided DeBoer is a terrible coach and that there have to be contracts that lock in all their talent from leaving.

I really hope we give this a year or two of seeing how the increased parity from more schools being able to bring transfer talent works out before allowing the SEC and B1G to institutionalize inherent playoff availability advantages.
They lost to Vandy for the first time in ~40 years. They got wrecked by a wretched OU team. DeBoer in Bama is a bad match.
 
Ignoring the need to keep some importance in the B1G/SEC CCGs, what would change with seeding straight on the rankings?

1 Oregon gets 8 Indiana v 9 Boise winner

2 Georgia gets 7 Tenn v 10 SMU winner

3 Texas gets 6 tOSU v 11 ASU winner

4 Penn St gets 5 Notre Dame v 12 Clemson winner.

If I’m Oregon I take that all day long over the hand they were dealt today
 
Suggestion:

1) seed teams 1-12. Ignore top four conference champs getting byes.

Or

2) re-seed after round 1 if you want to keep byes for top 4 conf champions.

I was against expansion. But I like it now. I think these adjustments will make it better.

Some of these found 1 games are mid.

I'm all for seeding teams 1-12 to match the rankings but the problem is then the conference championship games will lose some of their value in certain situations.

The 12-team playoff will be a lot of fun even though I don't expect 3 of the 4 first-round games to be that close. Tennessee-tOSU is the lone expection but the way this season has gone who knows, we could end up with 4 great games.
 
Boy Josh Pate really carrying water for Bama and the SEC. A lot of people really won’t be happy until it’s just an SEC B1G tourney.

I think most people believe Alabama would wipe the floor with SMU, so that's where that opinion comes from. The problem is, there's just not real justification for Bama over SMU based on the criteria and what the committee has repeatedly said.
 
I think the lack of a consensus NC was good for the sport in that it kept fans and media discussing who was the MNC long after the bowls. I can't think of any other sport where the dialogue continued so long or so intensely after the post season.
 
Is it wrong to not want ND and Penn State to win, not because they are horrible schools, but I want Prime to be the first black coach to win a Natty. Twisted cause I like Freeman
 
I’m just curious just how many losses the SEC thinks are still acceptable to get their teams into the playoff, though they seem to think anything more than 1 is disqualifying for any other league. Sankey seems to be arguing they should have had 6 of the at large spots.

At least ASU beat the mediocre SEC team on their schedule (Miss St).
 
How much would strength of schedule in the SEC go down across the board if they played 9 conference games? That would give 50% of the league 1 more loss guaranteed vs having those teams getting an easy W against some FCS or G5 school. Maybe the SOS should be adjusted for SEC and ACC for not having 9 conference games.

And the worst Big 12 team beat a middling SEC Arkansas.
