Boise State got a first round bye. Only the best 4 teams in the playoffs should get that. I think they should be in the playoffs but not as a 3rd seed.
Nah you gotta reward conference champs. Otherwise it would be 3 SEC and 1 B1G or 2 & 2 getting byes every year. CFB needs to stop giving big brands extra advantages. Bring objectivity into the sport and no more of this beauty pageant stuff.

Yep and hell the conference byes was all set up for each of the power 4 conferences. If the ACC wasn't so weak this year they would have got that Boise spot, miami was in that spot and they choked and I'm pretty sure if SMU beat clemson yesterday SMU would have gotten that 4th seed and first round bye.

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Why are you hating on a non power 4 school?

ONE non power 4 team is guaranteed ONE SPOT out of 12.

64 schools in 5 conferences are fighting for one spot.


it doesn't matter if 3 non power 4 teams are 12-0 only one will get in yet they don't whine.


I don't even get what you're saying you said At the end of the day, the SEC and Big 10 are constantly told their conference is the best by the media. And that same media kept them out over Boise St, Arizona St, Indiana and SMU.

Indiana is in the big ten breh, Arizona won the big 12, SMU is in a power 4 conference and went 11-2 a,nd only lost to a 11-2 byu team by 3 and 3 points to a clemson team

I'm only saying with the AD's for the SEC and Big 10 are thinking. That is all. And after I said what I said, Alabama's AD came out and said they were going to re-evaluate their non conference schedule. Earlier this year, they were talking about doing an SEC/Big 10 challenge. That probably wont happen.

A school like Alabama probably saw their team as a lock to make it to a 12 team playoff every year. Even with 3 losses.

At the end of the day bama lost to two 6-6 teams, and one of the games they scored 3 points.

How is "reevaluating" their schedule going to help Alabama? They don't play anyone OOC to begin with.. They aren't in the playoffs because they lost to the bottom feeders of the SEC

Exactly
And they won all of their OOC games anyways :mjlol:

next year they have florida state, ulm, wisconsin, eastern illinois

Brian Kelly gonna Brian Kelly fa life. And Fun look laughable right now. I'll give you a tough row of SC, UGA & Auburn just cuz it's on da rival tip. But that's why I said he needs another QB that can make all of the throws in the kind of offense he wants to run. You can only do so much with Milroe. But Idk what ya plan would be for next year if he's byke.

Man fucck all that. Saban won 11 and made the playoffs with Milroe.


Deboer whipped LSU and started the game out whipping Georgia better than Saban ever has.

But just as he gets credit for that he deserves to have his ass roasted for that Vandy and Oklahoma L. Bum ass Houston gave Oklahoma more of a fight than Bama did.

But in the Eyes of Alabama and other SEC schools a 6-6 SEC team > 11-1 Mountain West Team.

Or they will say because they have to play a Georgia or Texas in back to back weeks, it’s hard to play a “tough” Kentucky or Vanderbilt team.
