CFP rankings are trash

[jts1207]

Complete garbage

So 1 loss UGa who got beat by USC is ranked higher than 1 loss Alabama team who lost to current #1

That’s whack!

Epstein was about to reveal the corruption in the ranking system when...

 

[jts1207]

It's a conspiracy to put Bama in or keep them out. Haven't figured it out yet

 

[jts1207]

Actually just designed to keep 2 Sec teams in

 

[GT65_UGA89]

Yeah I just saw the updated CFP rankings -there has to be an underlying SEC-biased something going on here, unless it’s the old adage, if you’re going to lose, lose early.

If Georgia beats LSU they'll keep Lsu in

If LSU beats Georgia they'll move Bama up

 

[cyclejacket]

Doesn't really matter with regards to Ugag. They will either win out and earn their way in to the CFP or they will end up in Tampa.

Auburn takes care of the problem this weekend.

Might want to check the email accounts of the officiating crew for the game.

I'm guessing they all just got the same email just now.

If Baylor wins out they will have to be in. To keep them out would be a farce.

To me, since about 5 weeks in, it's been pretty clear who the real four most talented teams are this year: LSU, Clemson, Alabama and Ohio State hard stop. The likely best playoff games would involve them, regardless of conference alignment. That said...

If Baylor, LSU, Clemson , Minnesota, and Alabama all win out, Alabama will be left out. And that would be the right call. They had their shot. Sometimes the schedule isn't fair. A bunch a people claim SEC bias, but no Committee will actually have the stones to leave out an undefeated P5 Champion, until we actually get a year with all 5 or 4+ND being undefeated and someone has to go. Something something my own piss something something. And if for some reason it does happen I promise this, it'll be the end of the 4 game playoff as we know it and they will take it to 8 ASAP, because no p5 conference is going to stand to have their 13-0 champ not get a spot at the table...

They may leave out a 1-loss conference champ for Bama or a similar team, but it will not happen to an undefeated p5 champ.

The playoff rankings with a 1/4 of the season left are what the are. A TV show.

You just waking up from a long coma or something?

Complete garbage

I really do think they purposely move teams in that have to play each other to include more teams. That builds viewers.

UGA at #4 after losing at home to South Carolina, and beating no one of merit is garbage. Ohio State or Bama would rip them a new one.

They're getting way too much credit for Notre Dame and Florida.

I ööööing warned them.

This is the problem with the releasing early rankings. They treat the rankings like a ladder. Lose and you get knocked down X spots. Instead of evaluating each team's whole seasons comparatively, as it should be.

Or maybe this just fits the cynical boost-TV-ratings theory of these rankings. Suddenly UGA-Auburn is a bigger game, it has playoffs implications for Bama.

It’s idiotic to assume this is not the case.
