CFP Thread

[OrangeAfroMan]

Now I know you're arguing just to argue.

The gap between Alabama and Kennesaw State is VASTLY more than from Kennesaw State to zero.  
So no, you're wrong. 

But keep on keeping on.

That's just ridiculous. FCS powerhouse Montana is hardly even playing the same sport as non-scholarship Valporaiso. Yet both are FCS.


Bama lost a Bowl Game to pre-Pac 12 Utah. They wouldn't have even struggled against non-scholarship Dayton.

Urban Meyer can piss right off. 

Fair? Fair?! FAIR?!?!

College football has never been about fairness. College football is rigged so that the rich get all the benefits and the rest get scraps. 

Urban Meyer would have been pushing for Utah to be in the CFP had it existed when he was there, but then he went to two different schools where he benefited from the structural inequality of the sport, winning NCs at both schools. And NOW the SOB wants to whine about how it's unfair? 

We saw what happened when he coached a team in a version of the sport that's fair. 



So how 'bout you STFU, Urban? Fair ain't got nothing to do with it.

You must be really bored.

 No. Kennesaw would probably be around a 30 point favorite over UMass. Would probably be a 28 point underdog to Alabama.

Your argument is just absurd. Every other sport has a wide range of conferences, but it's all just D1, and all off the conference champions get an AQ. 

In football they already siphoned off the lower half of D1 into a separate subdivision with their own playoffs. On top of that, the upper tier of D1 has a unique set up where they exclude the worst 5 conference champions from the playoff field entirely.

That's an obscene amount of concessions that they have made towards the exclusively of the CFB NC, but do you show even a modicum of gratitude? No, you grouse and complain that they don't make a third tier of D1 for the tweeners that are in between the P4 and the FCS.

I'm wrong for wanting a lie to end.

So sorry.

Lies often persist if people want to believe them.

especially if those people are judges and lawyers

Coach Rhule has changed his thinking
a few years ago he was all for teams like Temple getting a shot, not after 3 seasons in the B1G

What about the lie of "Look, they're 11-1! They're SOOO good!"

When 9 of the teams on their schedule didn't have a snowball's chance in hell of winning the game. 

You demand the patsies stick around so you don't have teams with records ranging 7-5 to 9-3 getting into playoffs in a league with actual parity, but then want the patsies to know their place and shut up once the playoff rolls around.

Most humans, I think, are very susceptible to confirmation bias.  It's rampant on social media anyway.

It's not "news" any more, but Facebook is getting even worse.
