Everyone KNEW Indiana didn’t deserve to be in

Just like everyone KNEW Ole Miss would roll over a lousy Kentucky team

Just like everyone KNEW Alabama would wreck mediocre Vanderbilt and Oklahoma teams

Just like everyone KNEW Ohio State would wreck Michigan

Yeah, who you beat matters. But the losses have to matter, too. And the fact that Indiana got wrecked last night — you’re never going to have a playoff without dud games. You don’t avoid that in any sport. There are duds in the NFL (the BEST of the BEST) all the time.

But we all know the SEC is undefeated in theoretical matchups!

It can be both. BIG10 has to fix their schedules. The reason all those SEC teams lost is because schedules and teams are more balanced. BiG10 is masquerading as top program with a horrible schedule format and a league of really only 2 contenders. I can hate Bama believe they shouldn't be in and still think IU being in is a joke. I would have rather seen Army at that point.

Everyone enjoy the game. Get mad, be happy, throw stuff, run down they street yelling go Vols or post ridiculous stuff on VN out of anger. . . but remember, no matter what happens, we made the playoffs. We're still ahead of schedule and, like Tony Vitella said, everything from this point forward is house money.

Pat McAfee has made game day unwatchable for me. Now that he and everyone is cussing on daytime TV I have to turn it off when my littles are in the room. Win win I suppose but sad state of society…. JMO

I have been waiting for Saban to call his body guard on the set to beat McAfee to a pulp, he hates him.

Everybody on game day agreeing how bad Indiana looked...

Everyone on planet Earth with half an oz of reason can see it. Ergo, anyone arguing contrarily is wrong, period. Anyone with any decision making authority is biased, period. And that is wrong.

I'm trying to think at a high Admin level here. Good of game, fairness, money. The current model isn't sustainable. What happened on the field last night is akin to just writing all C's in the answer column. It's a strategy, but its also one with no basis, thought or concrete plan put into it.

There is NO high level reason.

As a fan, its insulting to see Indiana AND Notre Dame in this Playoff. Notre Dame should be 9th seed, and we should be playing a G5 in Neyland.

But because an acting BG10 AD is chairperson, who's ego is too big to be questioned. We do mental gymnastics to arrive at what looks eerily like a field picked by popularity, and educated guess. In golf it would be a mulligan.

Its off putting, insulting, and shameful to the game. Playoff committee truly owes nothing to us to choose good games. But they absolutely are in charge of getting the field right. You had one job. ONE. And you failed, miserably.

Its a hundreds of million, if not billion dollar industry.

Its akin to being handed the keys to the castle, and letting squatters be the groundskeepers. How? Indiana and Notre Dame suck, bad.
