CFP members should be forced to announce their votes Vols/Bama

[Woodlawn VOL]

Power rankings are out and have us in 6th. I just noticed that. Bouncing back good was big, gives us momentum to whatever lies ahead. GBO

They gonna do all they can to get OSU OR ALABAMA in. Including ignoring their own criteria/ guidelines.

Here’s the list of the members. Kentucky AD is the SEC representative. But I think he must recuse himself when his conference is discussed.
College Football Playoff Selection Committee Prepares for 2022-23 Season - College Football Playoff

I think it’s pretty well a given that these will be the first five announced on this Tuesday night.
1. Georgia
2. Michigan
3. TCU
4. USC
5. OSU

The only real controversy is 6 vs 7. Which will be either 10-2 Tennessee or 10-2 Bama.
The best argument for us is the head to head win and the rout at LSU who beat Bama.

The best argument for them is that their two losses were so narrow and that Tennessee was blown out in both losses.
The additional argument against us is losing our starting QB to injury.

i think the only fair thing to do is to have each member tell the public how they voted and why.
However, I know there is no way that this will happen. The head of the committee will just say they think Bama is CURRENTLY the better team and that is more important than head to head.

Of course, none of it matters if USC beats Utah and TCU beats KState.
But both of those games will be quite interesting and it wouldn’t shock me if Utah and KState both win.

From the national perspective, only real contentious issue is whether Bama is ahead of OSU for the #5 spot or if they gift OSU with #5 after being blown out. Some argue that while Bama has better losses, OSU has better wins. I’m not really convinced that wins over Penn State and ND are any better than Bama’s wins. In the end, our loss the South Carolina coupled with LSU’s loss the TAMU will probably keep Bama from being ranked ahead of OSU.

What happens if LSU beats UGA? We will of blown out the SEC champions in their crib. Do we jump the bammers and go bowling in ‘Nawlins?!?!?!?!

Playoff committee should just have to do this one time.
Like at the end of everything. Puts a stop to some of the BS

Now ESPN was talking about if TCU loses to kstate that they could compare there record with Alabama because Alabamas biggest wins is Texas and Ole Miss and it was against Texas back up QB and only a 1 point win and Tcu won better and this is a rematch and no mention of Tennessee.

Let's wait and see what happens tomorrow night. Coaches poll has always been a joke. AP poll only marginally better but both are meaningless. CFP is the only one that matters. That's their website and those qualifiers are crystal clear. I'm confident we'll be ahead of Alabama.

What about last week?
