Current qb won't be the qb next time they play. I'm no idiot, the season took a huge hit when Travis went down. However, they just keep finding ways to win and that defense gets tougher each week. What would it look like if the teams you mentioned would've lost their qb1 three weeks ago and qb2 last week? Would they still have finished the season 3-0? Speculate all you want, but FSU played 13 and won 13, the last 2 being under the toughest of circumstances.
Florida St v Louisville
- Thread starter Bamamonts
- Start date
I think they will put in the three undefeated conference champions…MI, Washington and FSU. That leaves one spot for Texas or Alabama. To me it's a no brainer to pick Texas over Alabama, but there is a huge SEC bias that could very well win out. Hypothetically speaking, if Alabama gets in and wins the natty, that does not (I repeat does NOT) mean that the committee made the right decision. It does not mean Texas wouldn't have won for instance. Similar to the NFL, conference champions get in and then the best records of the next teams (using tie breakers) get in. First tie breaker? Head to head. In college football there are only four spots, which makes it highly subjective who gets in, and basically every year there are legitimate arguments to be made that this team shouldn't have been in and that team should have. Even next year with 12 team playoff, there will be subjective criteria used to "select" the 12 teams. That will be way better than selecting only four teams, but still subjective. When you have subjective criteria to determine who gets in, you have subjective championships. Win your conference? You get in no matter if you're not as good (either to the eye or by record) than a second place in another conference.

You can't leave a power 5 undefeated champ out, if it does this league is a crooked joke, 3rd string qb will not be the starter at playoffs
I wonder what some of these Alabama fans would be saying if the shoe was on the other foot? What if Milroe got a broken leg on the last drive against Georgia and still won the game? Would they think Alabama doesn't qualify for the playoffs? I think we ought to get away from as much subjectivity as possible when "selecting" playoff contenders.
Of course FSU is saying their QB will be back and healthy. They have to say that, any team/coach would say that to help their argument
But really will(or would) he be 100% healthy, that's pure speculation and to an extent propaganda.

We had that with the BCS. That's why we decided to scrap-pile it.

Correct, no way they could without being crooked.
Last few years they didn't take the "best team" but let's start this year because the SEC will get left out.

4 Best teams.
I would agree myself, but I also think there is a very valid argument that Georgia is better than all four of the playoff teams. It's also why I don't think subjectively "selecting" who gets the chance play for a National Championship is the best way to do it.

Well the rest of the "chest puffers" that matter seem to have sided EXACTLY like I called it. So I'll let my words dictate my actions.Good luck with that
He can't answer legit questions. Just a chest puffer
Looks like the AlObama team is as good as the Biden's at laundering money. Not saying that's the case but it sure is suspicious
Ever wonder why no one likes to talk to you? You can't have a reasonable and intelligent conversation. You have proved it over and over
