I think, and this shouldn't be controversial, if your football program was involved in one of the biggest cheating scandals of all time you should not be in charge of the brand new playoff committee THE NEXT YEAR

Personally, I think you should be banished to a small island in the pacific, but if not that, you definitely shouldn't be in college athletics anymore and especially not in charge of who gets to play for the championship

Why pollute some beautiful pacific island? I'm thinking Siberia.

That's not fair tho.
What have those teams sitting at home done to earn a jump? You can't punish teams for playing an extra game.

Then they shouldn’t have lost elsewhere in the regular season. I’m of the belief that UGA should be left out of the CFP if they lose in the SECCG. They did what was needed to earn a spot in the SECCG, so they can accept the consequences of a loss. Don’t lose to the Gumps or Ole Miss in the regular season and it doesn’t matter. The entire schedule matters! It is used to select teams for conference championships, so the game should likewise have value, good or bad. Life isn’t fair, but a 3-loss SEC team doesn’t belong this year, not without a complete and thorough meltdown amongst the top-15 over the next two weeks.

I respect that is your opinion. I also think it is a bad one.

I went on a tour of an old church last night and thought I saw a lady standing at the top of the tower……..

I asked who it was. The tour guide said ….Isabelle

Take it up with the committee it’s always been that way. Just like if Texas loses to Uga it’s absolutely impossible for them not to drop. If not the committee would decide the playoffs before conference champ week

It’s the logically consistent one. You wouldn’t understand that, though.

Wrong.

So... If I'm understanding this bolded part correctly... You're saying "If Georgia didn't want to deal with the consequences of making the SECCG, they should have thrown the correct games in order to miss it".

That's insane.

They're 1-7...

guess who they beat?

 

[Smokey123]

It should be.

I disagree. There would be zero justification for Boise State to be in the playoffs over UNLV if UNLV wins, or for Texas to be over Uga if Uga wins, ect. You would have to completely remove conferences and make it more like the NFL

You can't punish teams for having to play an extra game because they had a better regular season than someone else.

It's a massive advantage to NOT make the CC game if you punish the teams playing.
Getting a week off and getting the revenue from another home game.
I would almost guarantee most coached would prefer the 5 seed.

Sounds like you're trying to convincing yourself.

don’t give a rats rear if i'm a alpha, beta, zeta... perception is fleeting. My own health is my concern, aint no one gonna do it for you. Slap whatever label needed.

I was previously trying to convince myself that drinking coffee black was the only masculine way to do it. Now I totally agree with what you're saying. I don't care how someone drinks their coffee including myself, as it's no measure of alpha/beta. I drink coffee for the effect so I still kinda hate it but creamer and splenda make it a less crappy beverage. Being comfortable enough to drink your coffee the way you choose is much more manly than worrying about a perception held by some that the only alpha way to drink coffee is black.
