Army!

until ND joins a conference- they should be told to kick rocks. no special treatment or name bias nonsense.

i hate ND and rudy.

Definitely army. If they win out, they will probably replace boise at the 12 spot

Beat UTEP badly and then we must beat Vandy by at least 2-3 TD's unfortunately to stay above water... then let the chips fall and be constantly haunted by the Arky game as the point that probably knocked us out of the playoff...

We beat Arky and we are arguing about where we will be seeded and if we get a bye.... F'n crazy.

Part of the deal though is that it is impossible for them to get a bye. They can never be higher than the 5 seed, even if they’re the top-ranked team.

The Blindside is the only bigger piece of **** sports movie.

I didn’t do a parlay this past weekend. I had a serious parlay issue the first two months of the season lol. Lost way too much.

I was referring to the penn st,ole miss and Indian parlay…but I know the feeling

if you thought ND……WRONG ANNSAA!

 

[drvenner]

That reads a lot like a troll post. No Tennessee fan thinks Dooley was robbed vs LSU.

I was just using the Bobby McGee reference.

[JP_UT_O&W]

If Army wins, y’all don’t think the committee is giving both of them an entry? Just a gut feeling that they will find a way to get ND in

 

[TheBigOne10]

So I think we’ll all feel better if by some small miracle we are ahead of OM in tonight’s ranking. Not expecting it but possible.

 

[UTSuave’]

Who else thinks this ass hat should be moved to another conference?

 

[rikberry31]

Timing of losses matters just as much as anything else.

That's bull and more committee speak. It only matters if you want to make it more complicated to massage the rankings and justify bogus. A win is a win no matter when it happens rankings.

 

[SoMissVol]

Tee Higgins, Torrance Gibson, Otha Peters and Vonn Bell were something to behold as well.

Honorable mention goes to Torrance Gibson. That was also a circus. Those are, FOR SURE, some legendary recruit threads though.

That's some solid recruiting right there.

 

[rikberry31]

Which is stupid. Bama getting in because they lost 3 weeks earlier to Tennessee instead of Georgia is ridiculous. There’s zero valid argument for Bama (unless they straight up win the SEC champ) being in but not Tennessee in.

On top of that, had Bama played in Athens they lose that game too. Bama was very lucky to win that game

I think this whole 12 team playoff thing has become a total farce. There is no reasonable thinking person who thinks Boise St or any other G5 school should be included, actually it should be the G6 because the B12 should be included.
Maybe the NFL should include the champion of their flag league in the playoffs or the NBA should include the highest rated G-League team.
12 teams is too many already and if a team like Tennessee were to be left out or seeded lower than some scrub school whose their biggest games are on Thursday night or on SEC+ then it is total joke.

 

[rikberry31]

Sometimes but not always. Most recent examples in 22 Tcu and Ohio state both lost their most receht games and made the playoffs. ND got killed by Clemson last week of the season in 2020 and made it in

Really there are no criterion for the CFP committee. The goalposts move every time they meet. They are like soccer referees, they are just making it up as they go along. Kirby said after the game, "I don't know what they looked at anymore." Ultimately, they are going to do what they are told.

What the hell did Rudy do to you?

 

[UTProf]

I was just using the Bobby McGee reference.

I was gonna add that Kris Kristofferson wouldn’t like it either.

 

[rikberry31]

I kind of agree. I think Boise St could beat some of the teams that get in Colorado/byu, Miami/smu, Penn state. They played good vs Oregon. But I do agree Bama/OM/UT deserve a spot

The fact that any of these teams get in is a complete joke. Florida, LSU, South Carolina, heck maybe even Vandy would whip them.

Sounds like you want the two best SEC teams to play for the national championship

 

[JCP201]

I remember when all the Kellie Jolly Harper acolytes scolded Danny and sent him angry emails for firing a mediocre coach just because those acolytes love them some alumni head coaches.

Sounds like Danny knew what he has doing.

God dude! Torrance Gibson and von bell?…PTSD like no other…this whole forum was a wreck when they didn’t come here. Turned out to be a bums…well Torrance anyway
