It's about getting the 4 best teams period regardless of tradition.
I would agree, but....
As we know ND has been an independant all these years. While the media loves them they can't compare with the entire Big10 or any conference, when it comes to having a following. Trust me it will be about SEC vs Big10, Big12 vs ACC right now.
It's about getting the 4 best teams period regardless of tradition.
But the Big 12 will be left out. Ohio State will get in. I don't them getting in over Baylor.
The Big 12 and ACC were neck and neck overall. Big 12 was top heavy but too many bad to average teams.
I was talking about what's best for the game.
Would it be?
Alabama
LSU
Auburn
Georgia
...of course not. What's best for the game is to get as many fans involved as we can. We'll see that (close as possible in 2014) with....
Alabama
Oregon
FSU
OSU
...involved. Big time programs with some history involved and a follwing.
Ohio State is 100% in. I'm gonna puke
I disagree. What's best for the game is having a non-subjective way of deciding a playoff. We've seen Big 10 teams recently get slaughtered. Everyone knows the conference is a joke overall. Outside of OSU, limited athletically. No speed. Defenses suck. A total embarassment of a conference.
My guess:
1) Alabama
2) Oregon
3) FSU
4) Ohio St.
I think TCU should be in the top 4.....but I also think the committee wants nothing to do with the Baylor vs. TCU argument.
This. the entire playoff isn't really a step forward from the old BCS system if you don't have the best teams.
Why do most people prefer the college game over the pro game? Yep....peronal ties and passion for your state/conference etc. Look at the climate here.....THE BIG12 IS GREAT!!!! THE BIG10 SUCKS!!!!!!! and on and on.
The college game is all about that sort of thing and tradition. Don't be a fool and think it isn't....ok? When it looked like ND was going to be a player the media was ing out, they love the Fighting Irish and all that history.
Who in the gives a damn about TCU/Baylor outside Texas? Abd even in Texas it should be the Longhorns.
The Big10 sucks but they have been around forever and only ND compares when it comes to history/tradition. Look at the are the Big10 comprises, yep...huge. So we'll have...
west coast and Oregon
east coast with FSU
midwest and OSU
south and Alabama
Look at how many football fans have a stake in this?
The game needs as much interest as it can get, so that final 4 would be as close to perfect as we can get in 2014.
Win the Big 10 with one loss and automatically get a chance to win the le. What a joke.
Damn....TCU wins by 50 and drops 3 spots.
off
big 12.
easiest path to a playoff
doesn't matter that we don't have a championship game
The biggest winner was fluky FSU. They lucked their way into this. TCU and Ohio State were neck and neck.
I agree about FSU...but they're defending champs and undefeated. They have to get one of the 4 spots.
Long ass trip for the players and fans to the Rose Bowl. Might be a home game for the ducks.....
Win 55-3 and drop 3 positions
Drop below ty Baylor
State offered the most money so they got in
Big 10
Committee afraid to say no to the Big 10 so bent over and took it
NCAA
Full of corrupt pedophiles
I'm out.
in thing sucks!
ing idiots. Who the justifies dropping the best team in the country three spots after winning 55-3? TCU got ed over so bad tbh.
I'm guessing a couple more years of this BS and people will be reminiscing about the good ol' BCS days.
I already am...
I never disliked it, just wanted a playoff with it.
I was under the impression that the rankings the week before were somewhat of a starting point for the coming week.
My impression was dead wrong.
Did you hear Jeff Long's explanation for TCU dropping 3 spots? He kept saying that it had nothing to do with TCU....it was more about what Ohio St. did this weekend? WTF?![]()
