So The CFP committee has given us the foolproof way to get yourself in. Wait until after the last snap of the regular season, then hire Tonya Harding to take out the best player on every team ahead of you. None of them will pass the "eye test" anymore, season results be damned. In like Flynn.
öööö yeah they got screwed. 13-0 P5 champion beat a top 15 team by 10 with a 3rd string QB.
The committee just argued that they left off FSU because of injuries. Wow.

if the data used to develop the SOS is biased, isn't the result biased? Look at the ESPN FPI. FSU is undefeated but only ranked 12th or something.

The bag man used to be the most important person not officially affiliated with any team. Now, it'll be the hitman.

FSU should refuse a bowl invitation.

This. Since the games don’t matter anyways. Stop now and declare themselves national champions.

That's actually perfect. Especially if they wait so there's no time to reschedule an opponent for UGA. Because a part of this was almost certainly revenue.
If they had let FSU in, #5 and #6 would both be SEC schools and they'd get weaker opponents, and fans would not watch as much for the sour grapes. But by letting Bama in over undefeated FSU, now #5 gets #6 and both think they can claim the title if they win. It'll be a revenge game for both and a huge revenue draw.
The CFP is as corrupt as the Duma.

when your signature wins are Louisville and an SEC team that played Grambling, Army, and Georgia State, you might have a scheduling problem.
But let’s admit why they really did it: they needed to have an SEC team in the playoff.
Michigan (B1G), Washington (Future B1G), Alabama (SEC), Texas (Future SEC)
When ESPN announces their SEC vs B1G only championship, they’ll point to this years’s selection as proof of their dominance.
It’s a scam.

When you win all your games and are a P5 conference champions you don’t need specific signature wins.

Just tired of the ACC getting ööööed in the ass without the common decency of a reach around. I have already messaged JBatt, as a long time season ticket holder, and told him I expect a strong reaction from the ACC, as a group, to expose what a fraud this decision is. The SEC acts like one sinister, self serving, serpent, while the ACC bickers and fights among ourselves like children. It is time to stop this stupid bullshit and burn down college football and ESPN.
There should be nothing but negative reactions from every single announcement across the board up to, during, and after the fraud playoffs.
