i just cant wrap my head around developing a system to decide it on the field and ignore the eye test and backroom politics involved in crowning a champion in the old system, and immediately ignoring on field results in favor of eye tests and backroom politics. so fukking stupid
So you think Baylor should be ahead of TCU?

The BCS would have FSU at 3



No, but being undefeated can't take precedent when everyone doesn't play the same schedule

SOS of the top 6
4 Bama
36 Oregon
11 TCU
45 FSU
42 Ohio state
29 Baylor


Let me ask you this if Alabama leads Mizzou in the SEC championship the WHOLE game their up 24-20 with 2 minutes left in the game. Maty Mauk leads his team down the field and Mizzou scores a TD with about :03 left on the clock 27-24 Mizzou. Squib kick by Mizzou game over. Does Alabama STILL deserve to go to the Playoff?

After all they controlled the game for 58 minutes that's gotta count for something right. :ufdup:

No we don't because we would have 2 losses

But FSU isn't looking terrible against teams as good as Mizzou

They are being bad against sorry ass teams like Florida, Virginia and Miami

When every team is playing a different schedules you have to take in other factors

SOS, dominance and how impressive you've been

People are just on the fact that FSU won last year and they have the same QB

But, this is not he same team as last year that was just overwhelming opponents and the QB is not good this year

FSU should be #1 in the polls and that's all that needs to be said.
FSU has not been better than Oregon and bama this year

And FSU would not be undefeated playing bama and Oregon schedules while bama and Oregon would be dominating in the ACC

FSU has been fortunate to not have played a team that can score this year

You're exactly right on both points this year's FSU is not the same and Jameis is not playing as well BUT they have the exact same record as this time last year 12-0.

Who has Bama played that would beat FSU? Give FSU Bama and Oregon's SAME EXACT SCHEDULE and i'd be the house they'd be undefeated or have one loss at the WORST.

Sorry can't do that. You can only play who's on your schedule.

If yall could score you would have beaten FSU

FSU has no pass rush and there offense is utter :trash: outside of Cook

I cant stop raving about how Cook has been winning all these games for FSU

How in the hell could you be trumpeting FSU after you know yall should've won by 30 and your team didn't even play good.

I only said that cause it was mentioned by somebody else if you switched FSU's schedule with Bama or Oregon

If LSU and Arkansas could score, they woulda beaten the pants off Bama. It goes BOTH ways.

The hypothetical game doesn't work. It's not as if FSU's defense didn't have much to do with us NOT scoring; this whole season they've clamped down in crunch time in the second half. That's a credit to them. They've always had to face, I believe, 7 teams this year who had a bye week before facing them. Give 7 of the 13 teams you face an EXTRA week to prepare, and you're going to struggle. Don't care WHO you are. When it's all said and done, they've went undefeated while NOBODY else have. They deserve to be #1.

Jeff Long praise of TCU was laughable last night. He got on Baylor for the performance against Tech, but just two weeks ago TCU had that same performance against Kansas. But they seem to think TCU is playing so much better than baylor and O State. Mind Blowing
