The best case scenario was a Miami win, which (sort of) proves the ACC belongs in the playoffs.

Would have been even better if Alabama lost.

Best case scenario is a one score loss.

SO close.....

The sport is flawed. If we fix the postseason, we can remedy the sport.

Either the P4 and G6 are equals, or they're not.

Right now we have 10 conferences, and a 12 team playoff. Each conference gets an auto bid. The 2 floor sweepings go to the best at large teams; the only time we need a committee.

No debate needed. This is how a sport works.

Now, we can break the P4 and G6 teams apart. Have two postseasons. That's an option that makes a lot of sense.

But right now, if 15 SEC teams are better than the CUSA champ? Well that's a pretty stupid of all those SEC teams.

We need to set boundaries. One team per conference. Sort that however you'd like.

Either this is a fucking sport. Or this is a fucking beauty pageant.

Thanks for this. I had searched for this type of thing but hadn't been successful. I've probably had the rotation lock on for years.

Yeah totally. I'm not harping on the point. Just thought that game was a great example. WRs catching shitty balls turned that game around. No worries. We are in agreement 🤝

I did, and as I stated above, I generally agree.

I think people are underestimating just how bad of a situation our WR group was in. Not making excuses (Heath being a prime example of awful drops).

I guess we are all going to find out how good Mines is really soon.

'Imagine you go to Boise State Florida State spring practice before 2006 2023 season. And you say to the team-"ive got some good news: y'all will go 13-0 this season!.... bad news: you won't even get near a shot to play for the National championship. "

FTFY

What about a combination of the two? Like, still have 12-team playoff, but get rid of the selection committee.

Edit: Nevermind, just saw Soup's comment further down.

Sagarin really screw PSU by putting them 13th they should have made it

Pretty good plot writing for a soap opera.

I can't believe we have this perpetual argument over how hard we need to go to script a competitive team sport.

Pro-wrestling doesn't even pageant this hard.

That's my belief:

  • Have computer rankings (with a public algorithm)
  • 8 team playoff
  • Every conference champion inside the top 15 gets in
  • If a conference champion can't get in, start giving at large bids until the field is full

It's not perfect, but it's an improvement imo

Under those parameters, we'd have 6 champs and 6 at large.
