Personally, I hate this whole situation.  I don't think any of the 3rd-7th place teams deserve a playoff spot.

Just as before that you had to point out Michigan was losing at halftime,so no dig there right?
Oh, I was poking him about UM the whole time.  Good fun.

The college football regular season is officially meaningless.
TCU should have forfeited yesterday.

Too busy being mean to me to actually clarify the point.  Yawn.

btw, every single one of you would be going ape-shit if it was 2 SEC teams and not 2 B1G teams in.  So there's that.

I do see a parallel with 2007 here, though. 
In 07, the #2 team kept losing the last few weeks of the season.
.
This year, the teams vying for the 4 seed kept losing (Tennessee, Clemson, USC, LSU (twice), Oregon).  You could include TCU in that, except TCU lost and wasn't penalized at all.

They were only unpenalized in order to avoid an OSU-Michigan semifinal. Otherwise they'd have dropped to 4, and OSU would have moved up to 3.

Yeah OR maybe they just had a better resume and strength of schedule than Ohio St?
