Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

There will always be a controversy about who is selected last, and next year, probably next to last, and then the order (as 5th will be tougher than 4th).

I don't think they take injuries into account, just performance to date.  So, yeah, undefeated P5 teams will always be ahead of one losers, always, with perhaps a very unusual exception.  I was thinking about Ohio State a bit, playing on the road basically even with the #2 team in the country, and how they'd get dinged down to 6-7-8 for it.

A better way would be to let Vegas do this, but that can't happen.

They've already specifically stated that they CAN take injuries into account.

In FSU's case, provided they win, then I don't think the committee will keep them out.  But they've already stated that they can and that it's part of what they're looking at.

OK, I didn't see that one.  Sure, FSU at 13-0 is in the CFP, no doubt.  We could have four undefeateds for the first time.  Makes it simple anyway.

It comes back to the question of "best teams" versus "deserving teams."

At 13-0, FSU would appear to be a "deserving team."  But without their starting QB, there's certainly some doubt as to whether or not they're one of the four "best" teams.

So, what is the mission of the Selection Committee?  4 best teams?  4 most deserving teams?  Or none of the above?

the committee does what ESPN and the SEC instruct them to do

most of us know this

it would seem that the SEC would favor Texas, as they are joining next season

come on Cincy, it's easy to hate ESPN and the SEC SEC SEC

Oh wait, you are an SEC guy!

damn

you almost had me fooled

agreed

I chanted "SECSECSEC" mockingly at Arkansas as they lost their final game in Austin, after they announced their plan to leave the SWC for the SEC back in '90.

I can't imagine I'd ever chant it again, but if Texas manages to beat OkState and win the B12 championship on Saturday, I'm sure there will be some surly Longhorn fans in JerryWorld, chanting it in an effort to mock dickface Yormarck for his clear anti-Texas bias.
