Recruiting Football Talk VIII

That has to be fixed as well. That isn’t even 1 percent. Hosting is one thing but shutting out visitors like that is nuts. In the playoffs schools should get a crack at at least a 30 percent allocation.

30% is crazy IMO. It's a road game. It's supposed to be a road game. I wouldn't want 30,000 Ohioans coming to Knoxville. I'd like to think that constitutes a foreign invasion in the state constitution.

i would be fine with it. it's the playoffs.

I’m a little conflicted on our draw. On one hand, OSU has a more talented roster than us but their home field hasn’t been known as one of the toughest places to play. On the other hand, Penn State is a much tougher place to play, but James Franklin can’t win big games.

Edit: They really need to bring back the BCS to decide the CFP rankings. Humans are naturally biased, and people can’t be trusted.

Why does everyone want the BCS when it uses human polls as it's main data source?

Because human polls are comprised of hundreds of people, so a lot of regional bias gets flushed out.

And there's a mathematical component that is totally absent of any human bias, further diluting whatever human bias there is.

But the seeding is the primary problem right now. Just a dumb system.

My daughter secured her tickets! Being the good Vol mom (and fan) that I am, I’m giving up 2 days of her coming home for the holidays and telling her to check off that bucket list item, go to Columbus, and help get our VOLS to round 2!!

Vols have to bring this energy and come out like this:

That got me PUMPED!!!

No MERCY. VOLS come out and run the ball they can hurt feelings. I don’t want any excuses either we come out and execute or we don’t. That simple.

Does Ohio St. have any players that will sit the first half after the scuffle after the Michigan game?

This is to be expected of Memphis basketball now.

Nope. Got off scot free.

It had a computer element also iirc...the combination they used actually did pretty well while it was in use.

This is awful for ETSU

Ultimately think they have the right 12 teams, but the seeding is a mess and botched. Hosting teams should be Ohio State, Tennessee, Penn State and Texas/ND (debate all you want for that one). Tennessee got hosed out of a host. Is what it is.

The way they have it ranked, TX would get a bye.

So it would be ND, PSU, OSU, TN hosting, seeded straight up.

If Memphis fans want to watch basketball, they need to drive 5 1/2 hours east on I-40.
