2nd Annual College Football Playoff Rankings Thread

[Ed MOTHEREFFING G]

You shouldn't resort to namecalling sir

I never argued at the fact that Iowa shouldn't be ahead of Alabama because at this point it doesn't matter as long as we're in the Top 4. My argument was people trashing Alabama's schedule. It seems like every time Alabama wins a big game, it's "Oh well that team was overrated anyway". Yeah I'll admit LSU, A&M, and UGA sucks right now but nikkas HATE giving credit to Alabama.

LMAO you guys are the defacto 'best team with 1 loss' every got damn year, you are GIVEN DEFAULT CREDIT because you're bama

nobody wants to give credit to ALABAMA

ALABAMA?

are you SERIOUS

 

[Brady-Carter]

How long is Boykin out?

Not sure, but he would be fine by jan 2 I would imagine.

 

[definition]

Yeah and Georgia was #8 and undefeated at the time. Your point is.

But no, let's not give any credit to Alabama whatsoever

I give Bama a lot of credit. I think they're fine at #2, even though their schedule is just ok. (Any Big 10 east team or Big 12 team would rival their schedule. Not my Hawkeyes though)

But Georgia was grossly overrated in early season rankings (this has happened before). I'd go ahead and back off the "#8 Georgia" routine, because they are garbage.

Good luck the rest of the way. Like I said, all this is extra for me. I wasn't expecting an 11-win Iowa team. So I'm already good with this season.

So with these rankings, Alamo bowl would likely be Oregon Vs TCU.

Thats what you want?

 

[Brady-Carter]

Thats what you want?

Alamo bowl is pretty much the top bowl the Ducks can get(Their is like a .0001% chance at the fiesta bowl). And the Alamo bowl is a big 12 Pac12 bowl so that's what it would be with the rankings right now. I would not mind seeing TCU and Oregon play.

Im talking about TCU, they're gonna come out healthy & pissed off in whatever bowl they get

Ya, it could get ugly for the Ducks. But whatever, still would not mind seeing them play each other. After the game might be a whole different story tho.

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

how/why are they good. How are they better than northwestern or penn state or even the middle acc teams

every year you guys do this but last year a team you hated on shytted ALL OVER the sec

YOU be real

LSU, Ole miss, Georgia were overrated as a champion contenders but to insinuate they're not quality opponents and a middle ACC team is laughable . You really going to say teams with a bunch of 1st round draft picks on their roster is the same as NC State bruh??

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

LSU 7-3 4th in SOS, Arkansas 6-5 3rd in SOS, Ole Moss 8-3 9th in SOS, Miss st 8-3 17th in SOS is equal to NC State 7-4 56th in SOS, Miami 7-4 34th in SOS, Louisville 6-5 36th in SOS

sec teams schedule cupcakes so that they all get ranked higher as the season progresses, and beat each other, while it keeps SOS high the whole time

its fine

they will get exposed again on bowl week

link and show me how strength of schedule is decided.

NCAA College Football Strength of Schedule Rankings & Ratings

1. 
   In sports, strength of schedule (SOS) refers to the difficulty or ease of a team's/person's opponent as compared to other teams/persons. This is especially important if teams in a league do not play each other the same number of times.

 

[Silkk]

^^^Pointless arguments.

Im just ready for this coaching shyt to resolve itself, don't think anyone in USC land feels that Clay should be our guy.

With Herman no longer interested in SCAR i hope that means somebody has contacted him about the job.

Bruh that just non conference and most of the teams at the top have played each other so that skewed their stats. Just like you say the SEC's SOS is so high because they play each other you can say the same for this ranking.

that shows that sec teams schedule fcs and LOWER mac teams in order to rack up wins ("LESS THAN 3 LOSSES") and improve their rankings.

you KNOW i'm right
