Disband CFP Committee

[Budalicious]

Why can’t there be clear cut criteria and or a point system that does away with the selection process like the NFL. This sh!+ show is like NFL on Fox or NFL Today on CBS talking heads picking the playoff team for the NFL

 

[Volbrando]

I’ve always said there’s a reason they have closed door meetings to discuss and decide the top 4 and don’t let anyone else including reporters in the room. It’s bias with the middle 2 letters removed

 

[volfan102455]

There is supposed to be criteria, but it is not used consistently.

 

[Hopeful Vol]

They are supposedly very knowledgeable and wise and the high council of college football. They are supposed to be non bias and use high integrity in selecting the playoff teams.

I mean if this collection of nimwits doesn’t know college football, who does?

• Mitch Barnhart, Kentucky athletics director
• Tom Burman, Wyoming athletics director
• Boo Corrigan, NC State athletics director
• Rick George, Colorado athletics director
• Chet Gladchuk, Navy athletics director
• Jim Grobe, former head coach at Baylor/Wake Forest/Ohio
• Warde Manuel, Michigan athletics director
• Will Shields, former Nebraska offensive lineman
• Gene Taylor, Kansas State athletics director
• Joe Taylor, Virginia Union University vice president of athletics and community wellness
• John Urschel, former Penn State offensive lineman
• Rod West, former Notre Dame linebacker
• Kelly Whiteside, Montclair State associate professor in sports media and journalism

 

[volfan102455]

It is not the who they are - it is about what the criteria really is and using it consistently. If you drop a team N spaces for a loss of 20 something points, the next team that loses by 20 something points should suffer the same fate.

If they put Alabama in, they should all be fired immediately. Would be a ridiculous situation

 

[volfan102455]

OSU lost AT HOME badly - they should not even be in the conversation.

 

[HighRockvol]

Yea **** ESPN pushing bama so hard… I hope ESPN falls apart

 

[37620VOL]

Don't see how you could make a point system work without it devolving into all the teams and conferences gaming the point system.

Bama isn’t getting in. But the fact they placed them ahead of us shows they have no integrity.

 

[FranklinVFL]

I am ready to be triggered if I see Alabama in this.

Then who should ?

Having Athletic Directors on this board is the dumbest idea they ever came up with.

 

[BUCCnVOLfan]

Go Vols!!!! We should at least be 5!!! If Bama is before us BS!!!

Come on. I really need to have the input of the Wyoming AD on this.

 

[Volbrando]

We won’t jump them both of us being idle

 

[BUCCnVOLfan]

Oh please @ TCU!!!!!

 

[volfan102455]

It doesn't need to be a point system IMO. It just needs to be well crafted criteria that is ALWAYS followed. Examples:

- Teams with the same record: Position based on H2H if the two teams played.
- Record against the top 25 in the CPF ranking (AP and Coaches polls are very political)
- Extra credit to the conference champion WINNERS. No participation trophy for the losers - they lost.
- Comparison to like opponents if there are any

etc.

 

[BearCat204]

Come on. I really need to have the input of the Wyoming AD on this.

I have a bigger problem with Kentucky and Michigan ADs being in there.

Now that's BS if I ever heard it.

 

[HighRockvol]

Tcu worst cfp team ever

 

[volfanhill]

They got the top 4 right so not sure what the problem is

 

[Hopeful Vol]

Alabama deserves to be in over TCU because we all know they could beat TCU. It’s supposed to be the 4 best teams currently right now. The TV ratings will also be higher with Georgia , Bama, Ohio St and Michigan 4 blue bloods. I’m not a Bama fan but Bama is a much better team than TCU. We flushed our chance to get in the playoff away on Nov. 19 that was the last impression we left on the committee.

Do you notice that all 3 former players on the commitee are from the BIG10? Makes you wonder about bias doesn't it.
