OFFICIAL Playoff Argument Thread- Who's in and Why
- Thread starter clob94
- Start date
Georgia is known for not showing up to bowl games if they dont make the playoffs..
Fla.St. knew what they were doing when they tried to bolt out of the ACC earlier this year. The committee got what they wanted, and what we will see in the future. All SEC and Big 10 teams (even if they don't join until next year).
There is no super team this year. Any of the 4 can win it. UT has the most balance, so why not?

I dont think I will ever grow tired of watching aggies lose their minds. If there were a championship for meltdowns, aggies would be undefeated national champions every year.
You mean you didn't read my pre-season essay that basically summed up ALL of this?
I'm sincerely heart broken dude...... I'll go fetch it for you so can give me side eye.
I have so much going on week to week man. Asking to remember something in August is a heavy lift. I thought we would be a one or two loss Big 12 champion just because of the talent gap.
Here you go Speed...... it's about halfway down.
Week 1 predictions
If they score 20 on us then our defense is not going to be very good this year. They lost 3 of their top WRs from last years team. We need the lines to dominate this game. We need to see open running lanes and no qb pressures. If anything is suspect, then we can downgrade our win totals.

Yeah I think a lot of us were there at 10 and 2 with a loss at Alabama and a slip up somewhere in conference play but I don't think there were too many of us at 12-1 and in the CFP. I really thought it was more like the 04 team that beat Michigan in the Rose Bowl to set up the run in 05Here you go Speed...... it's about halfway down.

Even though you're a sooner Oklahoma should have gotten in over Mississippi. Penn State doesn't deserve to be in there either whereas Oklahoma has a win over Texas. Why are they in? Quality losses? This makes 4 SEC teams in the elite bowls. 2 teams that really don't deserve to be in. This year's Oklahoma team could beat Penn State or Mississippi.
Where’s the part where you were telling everybody in this thread that Texas was out?Here you go Speed...... it's about halfway down.

That was me preparing my brothers in arms for the worst case scenario.
People put in decision making paradigms like that can act coo-coo.
My fear was that they'd pop a metal spring and punish Texas for what they may perceive as our past transgressions.
Admit it-- it was a HUGELY pressured moment the likes of which has NEVER been seen in the modern era of college football.
I'm glad I planned for the worst.
you werent the only ones planned for disaster. We all knew deep down there was a chance Texas would get fvkced. Im just pumped that we got in!
ps we already have as many wins in the CFP AS blowu
and we have been more times than aggy.
WHAT A GREAT WEEKEND.
That’s why you should have listened to me last night after Bama won. There was no way they were leaving Bama out and there was also no way they could leave us out after they put Bama in. All logic pointed to that.
I agree that they couldn’t have included Bama over us, but I still feel like FSU got screwed.
Leaving FSU out was the right call but it does suck for them. The reality is someone was gonna get screwed and it was more justifiable to leave FSU out than it was Alabama or Texas.
The reality is the playoff should have been 8 teams from the get go. The fact that it took 9 years to have more than 4 teams deserving is lucky.
I don’t buy the poor FSU BS. They went undefeated in a shitty conference. Liberty won every game too and nobody is pissing down their leg for them. That fact of the matter is if the B12, B19, PAC2, SEC, and the ACC all go undefeated, somebody would get left out. FSU wouldn’t be in the top 3 in any of the other conferences.
I think FSU has the best defense in the country......
it should have been
Michigan
Washington
FSU
Texas
But the CFP didnt want to piss of the SEC.
I get it Bama beat the number 1 team in the country..congrats..HOWEVER. Starting Friday it was playoff season, you lose youre out. EVERYONE knew that. Gerogia loss, they out. Bama won so they get to be talked about head to head with the other 1 loss should be 4th place team. TEXAS. We beat them head to head and Bama should have been left out. Easy as that..
Keep in mind in the “poor FSU” stuff that the ACC, big 10 and pac 12 were the reason there wasn’t a 12 team playoff this year.
Had nothing to do with "not listening" to you bud. It had to do with--- this was the most unprecedented playoff scenario in college football history. There was no road map for this. No precedent. Somebody was going to get fvcked. I just had a a slight suspicion that it could end up being us.
It's IMPOSSIBLE to read the minds of a committee sitting in a room- all from varying backgrounds- and predict their actions.
Was UG the best team in the country? The same fools voted them #1 that kept insisting Oregon was better than us. The reality is that head to head is the only true indicator of who is better than who.
Right now of the last 4 there is only one team that. Beat another....and that is us over Bama.
And...yes FSU got jobbed. Somebody had to. Their own fault for playing such a weak ass schedule.

I'll say this the revenge tour is not over! Last one our list Washington and our players know it too! We coming Washington!

If we had messed around and barely beat Tech and then just barely got by Oklahoma State I would have agreed with you. But the way we handled business the last 2 weeks is a big part of the reason we got in. Those style points along with the win in Tuscaloosa were the 2 things that got us in.
