The Herbstreit simping continues...

Time to reset the voices that matter in College Football. Herbstreit and Finebaum and all the other "Media" members simping for an all SEC CFP can go with them while they play with each other. WINS matter.

LOL the tone flipping is hilarious

I listen to Two deep a lot and just couldn't disagree more with this. Definitely orange and maroon colored glasses some times but far from "uncrowned champion" and "lazy clueless commentary." Very confused by this take.

There was an expectation for the 2024 team to reach 8 wins minimum and had a real outside shot for the CFP. That was based on talent on the team. And that wasn't Pete, that was outside media. In fact, he's way more negative of the team than outside media. If I remember his preseason preview, think he predicted 8 wins but not more.

You would have to point to a quote that he suggests VT is the uncrowned champion, because I don't see it.

He does push that VT is not this aww-shucks small-town program. He does push that VTshould be a top ACC program year-in and year-out. He does push that VT should be able to hire/fire coaches, make NIL deals, and economically run like a big-time program. But, that's probably not what you're referencing because VT was run like a small-time program in 2003 (but still manages to have national and ACC-championship-level success).

Truer words have never been spoken.

I agree I even said as much but that's a poor argument to do away with the playoff.

Seriously, I don't want anyone that has a 70 Burger scored on them, much less with the talent disparity between UNC and JMU. I don't think he's going to come to Tech and magically become his 2016 self and anyone that does is fooling themselves.

There has rarely been a year where more than 3 teams are good enough to be the champion.

Saw on some other boards/X that supposedly some VT staff have started following Matt Moore on X. Same allegedly with at least one possibly more of our new transfer commits following Dex. Who knows with social media detective work though lol.

Andy Bitter and David Cunningham at TSL are also now following Dex.

Yes , the warchant is the worst, and it's constant.
The gator chomp is pretty annoying too.
And then those idiots down there in Auburn screaming "war damn eagle" all the time.

Yeah I mean the low seeded teams are going to be a blowout usually. It's when they aren't that college sports are fun. Realistically we can eyeball the best 2 teams every year that are head and shoulders better than every other team but it wasn't very exciting to just shoehorn them in (especially now that it's the same cycle of 5 teams).

Exactly. Lord knows they'd be saying the same thing if the shoe were on the other foot.

The 2018 Hoos would like a word.
I get you are making an argument, but selfishly I would be fine with getting rid of the 16 seed just to stick the Hoos with a shame that could never be matched.

Same - the playoff teams need to be determined by conference championships, not by computer or by coaches or the AP. If that's allowed then we just get right back to where we were. Under a caste system like that we don't get Arizona St or Boise St in these playoffs. A conference-based system could potentially have the affect of a rebalance of power for the schools that are smart about it and choosing to relocate to a non-P4 conference for the purpose of winning championships. That might only work for a short while until there's a total realization that true geography-based conferences without historical rivalries is the way to go.
