flashbacks of Lou Holtz lobbying for the MNC  'we beat the big 8 champ, we beat the big ten champ....'  (also that season,  he omitted 'we lost to Miami').

Also, ranking the teams AND having the playoff seedings is stupid.  Don't do that.  Don't tell everyone the 20th and 24th-ranked teams are in the 12-team playoff.

Wouldn't we all prefer a playoff with Bama, Miami, and ND, and BYU in?  You know, teams that might actually win some games?
We're admittedly putting in special Olympians in the actual Olympics here.   I know that's a crass metaphor, but it fits.

We have a 2-loss G5 team in the playoff.  What are we doing?

I like that they have no one actually take the side of the G5 in these shows. $$$$$$ talking points. 

"We all just want the best teams in." No we f'ng don't. We want the teams that earned a spot.

yeah maybe we should just go back to the 4 team playoff. that is f’ing ridiculous.

Call me crazy but Notre Dame and Texas should be in over James Madison and Tulane. 

does anybody honestly think otherwise?

I guess a 2-loss American champ who lost to UTSA by 22 points earned it.

It's right there in the name - "champ." I know having poindexters pick the prettiest losers makes more money, though.

If the Hawgs had the exact same resume as Bama, they wouldn't get in.
