Bama has no chance, the talking heads love the Big 10

Mods must be tired after all the fun we had this week. Figured this thread would have been moved by now:)

Looks like once again we're going to watch the crappy voting system of NCAA Football screw over the more deserving team. All those pin heads who spend their careers voting their beloved Ohio State as high as they possibly can. Regardless of the fact that Ohio State cannot NOT beat Clemson, Georgia, Oklahoma or Alabama. They have two loses while Bama has 1.

Enough with the voting. A real playoff system is required now. Let the National Championship be settled on the field. Not at the desks of a bunch of agenda driven MSM morons or coaches. Especially those goblins at ESPN.

Enough of this crap!

It's not fair to the players or the fans.

From the 10 Conferences, send the top 2 teams from each conference, and add a few wild cards.

Drop the regular season to 8 games, a round robin conference system.

A playoff system can be worked out some way. There's such a system in every other sport, even 2A and 3A football.

Update:

Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle! :crazy: They actually picked the right top four this time. I guess even a blind squirrel can find an acorn every now in then. :pardon:

The committee will not want to answer questions about bias if they let OSU in this year. It would directly contradict the precedent they set last year... to the benefit of a singular school.

Nobody wants to be bombarded with that kind of accusation.

Then folks would argue about the wild card teams selected and the seeding.

Totally agree - Bama and UGA were 5 and 6 last week - two teams lost - they should move up to take those slots.

UCF??? They aren't going to put them in the playoff. Lmao


Damn BOT, I need what your having.

No but this is why they need to explain the playoffs and at least have a play in game for situations like this. If a team
Is undefeated who’s to say they wouldn’t play with any of those at the top. At least give them a chance. Same
With Bama and Ohio State. Let them play each other to get to the 4th spot

Didn't they say last week that 4-8 were virtually tied and conference championship would mean something in the final ranking? Pretty much signalled that OSU is in if they win. Bama needed TCU to win and even then there would've been an argument over USC.

The Big10 hasn't scored a point in the last two playoffs. They should be left out. I mean a 31 pt loss to freaking 7-5 Iowa. Name another team who Iowa would beat by 31 out of UGA, Clemson, Oklahoma, Alabama. They wouldn't even do that to Auburn

Alabama is better than ohio state---but the committee will pick ohio state to keep the Big 10 commissioner and ohio state AD happy

The announcers seemed to now be very fond of Schiano now. Its funny to think that if Ohio State with 2 losses jumps Bama, that the committee could feel sorry for him and put OSU in. Not likely that is the case, but any small chance of us causing Bama to be left out makes me smile. Bring on the subpeonas Bammers.

It should be 1. Clemson 2. Oklahoma 3. Georgia 4. OSU but 4 will be Bama because of nikki Satan.

Bama is the better team. I bet they put Ohio St in though. I really don't care and no one should on this board. SEC pride has done nothing for UT.

I don't like Alabama or Ohio St, but what is the purpose of having a conference championship game if you're not going to put the Big 10 Confrence Champion in the playoffs with the rest of the conference game champions? Honestly how many of you only want Alabama just because they're SEC ?

SEC pride garbage is just closet bandwagon fans. Whatever floats their boat, but that's what it is.

I think the situation last year and especially this year should lead to expanding the playoffs to 8 teams.

There is a legit argument over who is number 4. I don't like any of the teams arguing over the 4th spot, but I could make a case for USC, Bama, and OSU.

If you go to 8 teams you eliminate that. Of course some will argue over the 6 teams competing for the 8th spot, but it's better than where we are now.

I'm too lazy to look right this second but it might get interesting letting smaller conference champs take 6-8 so it's an all championship event and give the little man a chance to make some upsets. Think march madness type stuff here.

I’m torn honestly. I hate Bama and wish they’d lose every game for the next 20 years. But I hate OSU a ton. Urban is an azzhole and a slime ball. ESPN acts like OSU invented the game itself. I dunno, I think the SEC will raise holy hell if it looks like they’re left out. Finebaum will write Congress and their fans will burn down their houses.....which is probably why I prefer OSU. I want to see those Bammer fans make us UT fans look like model citizens. We’re crazy but those sumbiches need meds. A bunch here in Clarksville I’d love to see Monday AM if Bammer is left out.

If Schiano is such a great coach why is it the most disfunctional athletic dept in the country is the only school that has approached him in the last two yrs?

Hey media, you can't have it both ways.

Include all the power 5 conference champs and let them argue over who gets the last 3 spots.

I hate both teams. But I am sick and tired of Ohio State always sneaking their way into the playoffs because they are Ohio State. They undeservedly got in last year over Penn State and got humiliated.

I can't see them leaving Ohio St. out.

They want the Conference Champs in the Playoff if possible

Left conf champs Penn State out last year (Turned out to be a good move as they got whipped by USC in another bowl) but that was to give Ohio State (who got whipped by Clemson) the nod. Still, they love Ohio State and they love the Big 10. I have a hard time seeing playoffs without OU or Clemson. That leaves 2 spots for 3 teams IMO. Maybe they will leave the Big 10 out, make everyone mad, and get rid of the Playoffs by next year... thats my hope.

Notre Dame has certainly fallen.
