Because they'd still have 5 losses. One of those losses made them the only FBS win for 2-9 UNC.

So, someone else should have won the conference then. I think you should have to win the conference to get in. Dont think alabama should have been in last year either.

Shrink to 4 conferences and I'm on board. Until then, subjectivity is required.

If it’s all about conference winners then ND should be exempt?

Yep, I took some solace knowing the guy that rolled up tuas ankle was his own OLineman who was in the midst of an egregious hold, his arms wrapped around the defender.
It seemed like justice. The only possible punishment that could be imagined.
Then realized karma doesn't apply to bama, as hurts was the only way that bama was going to take advantage of georgia well prepared but poorly adjusting defense.

Just like in 2001, when we played LSU in the SECCG. We had their QB, Davey, on the ropes. Then he is injured and Saban put in Mauck, and they took advantage of our well prepared, but poorly adjusting, defense the rest of the game.

So you would have been good with this playoff:

1. 12-1 Georgia
2. 10-3 Texas
3. 10-3 Washington
4. 9-4 Northwestern

Nice

What are you talking about UGA did not win the conference championship, bama won.

Bama, Clemson, OSU, Oklahoma are all won conference championship games. ND needs to join a conference. Makes winning a division and championship game meaningful. UGA did not make it, I think that is correct.

Sure, same way im good with a 10-12 loss win in the final 4, an 8-8 wild card winning the super bowl etc.

I aprreciate your answer just disagree. I want, as close as a consensus as you can find, where the 8 best teams play each other. Conference Championship game criteria boils it down to one game.

Conference champ has never been the main criteria for getting in and shouldn't. It's the 4 best teams. Bama didn't last year and was obviously the best team in the country in the end. Not only that but conferences aren't built the same and the sec takes a beating because of it. How many sec teams could have won the other conference championships? Georgia would prob win every one except maybe against Clemson.

I think Kyler Murray is a phenomenal athlete but do you seriously think he would have put up the same numbers in the sec like he has against teams that's literally like playing 7 on 7?

It's like us having to play Bama every year, especially the last 10 years. Pretty much a guaranteed lost and now with Georgia being elite we could literally go 10-2 and not even make the sec championship and still be a top 5 team. We wouldn't be ranked 5th with 2 loses but if we played Bama and Georgia to close loses like last night it would be hard not to say that we aren't one of the top teams in the country. That's assuming that we will get back to where we're capable which I don't think we will in the near future. Or you could put Florida in that position.

I'm not a fan of 8 teams. I would be for 6.

So the criteria for bring considered the "four best teams" doesnt need to include the ability to win your conference? Lol

As was mentioned, its a good thing for UT that GA didn't get in. They don't need anymore help recruiting. It simply shows Kirby is inept. Richt 2.0, maybe one game better. Lastly I'm not so sure GA would beat Okie. Oklahoma can score a lot of points, and ole Kirby would choke again most likey.

"almost" feel sorry for the Pups. The irony of course is that Richt was fired in part becaise he "couldnt win the big game"

I was amazed when people were still putting UGA in the discussion after the loss yesterday. If I’d been on the committee, Georgia’s resume would’ve gone in the shredder at about 7:30 last night.

The final choices should be made from only conference champions which would mean you must make and win your conference for a chance at the national title.

Using that criteria, a string of upsets yesterday would have left a playoff featuring:

Maybe part of the issue is how conference championship games are done. I mean Pitt is not the second best team in the ACC.

The problem with the ACC is that they allow Notre Dame to be a member in every sport but football where they play an ACC schedule but aren't technically in the league. This will come back to bite them one day when Notre Dame keeps one of their teams out of the playoff.

That’s hilarious. So far UGA got rid of a coach that “can’t win the big game” for a coach that recruits better and costs more and also “can’t win the big game”. Richt went 32-8 his first 3 years and so far Smart is 32-9. Maybe Smart is better but so far you can’t say that for sure based on results.
