If and when UGA loses to Bama, they need to go to the Outback Bowl or whatever and STFU.

If Georgia loses to Bama, they will end up in the Sugar Bowl.

This is a laughably bad take. LSU is #10 in the CFP rankings. Purdue is a .500 team playing in the shitty ass Big 10 west - a division that North-fucking-western won.

Obviously, you have Bama ties, but, overall, why does a Wake board have so many SEC homers?

It just means more

There was nothing homerish about my post, unless you count thinking the Big 10 west sucks, which it does.

Obvi. But the SEC West is perennially overrated, and especially this year. LSU didn’t beat anyone other than SEC West weaklings and Georgia. They are better than Purdue, no doubt, and Ohio State’s loss to Purdue was worse than Georgia’s loss to them, but no so much worse that a 2 loss Georgia team that didn’t win the SEC should beat out a 1 loss Big 10 champ.

I agree, but that's not quite the same thing as what I bolded earlier. As you've outlined, winning a conference championship and having only one loss should be sufficient to get either Ohio State or Oklahoma in over a 2-loss UGA team. It's also true that Ohio State's loss to Purdue is worse, by a country mile, than Georgia's loss to LSU.

Pretty awesome 30 second drive by Oklahoma to take the lead right before halftime.
It was like OK's offense suddenly woke up.

Some impressive first half performances by ACC QBs

NCS. Ryan Finley 329 yds 2 TDs
VT. Ryan Willis 200+ yds, 4 TDs

 

[Dekin]

I would like to see Oklahoma blow out Texas and jump ND.

Not exactly a blowout but they could still jump UGA if they get blown out by Bama

 

[PhDeac]

So ND gets left out if UGA wins, right?

Perhaps. I guess I need to just get over it. But, to me, it is extremely unfair that all of these other teams have to do the heavy lifting by playing in these championship games and ND sits at home on their asses, gets an extra week of rest and then demands to be in the NC conversation. I get they're undefeated and SOS blah blah.... I get it. I just think it sucks!

There is no way ND would get left out if they're 12-0.
That would be more controversial than UCF getting left out at 12-0.

Same four teams as last year ! Awesome.

 

[Deacon]

NOT playing in a conference title game is not a valid criticism. Alabama just did it last year.

 

[wsc8521s]

Enjoy the game Biff! Catch you in Feb!

It most certainly is a valid criticism.

Who said I was defending Alabama? I think a minimum requirement, with the current 4-team playoff, is that a team must have played in its conference championship game. It would force ND to shit or get off the pot with the ACC cherry-picking.
