How awesome would it have been if UCF had jumped Alabama and Ohio State?
Your argument was that conference championships hurt the participants and I showed you that it didn't hurt tOSU at all. Also helped Southern Cal move up in the rankings.
Any playoff with Wisconsin involved is pathetic.
If you’d like some entertainment check out the comments on the bowl announcement on A&M Football’s Facebook. They’re...unhappy.
We just look at it differently. It hurt OSU imo because conference title games aren't sufficiently weighted to overcome losses like OSU's bad regular season loss against Iowa. It was weighted enough to shoot UGA past Alabama. I just believe the four should be selected from P5 conference champions.
If Alabama or other similarly situated teams are going to be measured by a body of work during the regular season then all teams should as well, and conference title games should be nothing more than exhibition games. Pick one or the other, don't use a combination of both to determine playoff teams. Either pick among P5 conference champs or weigh regular season schedules.

State playing Arizona State in the Sun.
Lol, Pack.
Does anyone know when the match-ups will be offcially announced?
Sure that was terrible. But, Ohio St was 2-1 against top 10 teams. And has a conf championship. Bama was 0-1. Those should easily outweigh one bad loss, given the committee's published criteria for selection.
It happens. Especially with bowl politics. Beat the two teams we lost to on our schedule that we should have handled and we may be in a NY6 game. Did it to ourselves.
...People make fun of Alabama's best win being LSU but at least they beat Auburn...

And lost to Troy in Baton Rouge. Alabama scored a TD in the last minute to beat Miss St as well.
