So you're making the claim that ranking Bama 4 and FSU 5 is a political decision.

What is the evidence to support your claim?
One team was undefeated.   The other was not- and was lucky as hell not to have 2 losses.   
But SEC SEC/ESPn Espn.  

But this isn’t new news.

it was 10000% a political decision.

FSU is the first ever undefeated P5 conference champ to get left out. Unprecedented.

Ohio State lost it’s starting QB in 2014 and still made it into the CFP. Oh yeah and they won the entire damn thing. Precedent for a team losing it’s QB and making the CFP.

This trash committee just decided to ignore precedent and disregard you know- results on the football field- all in order to do something completely unprecedented all in order to blow the SEC/Nick Saban.
It was predictable. Saw it coming a mile away.

Now I am going to return your name calling since that is all you know.


the answer is obvious DUMBASS.    They had to creat a narrative to support their purely political decision to ignore results and choose Bama.
I agree but BAMA a great program won't be bringing the eyes to the sets.Bigger markets and two fresh participants do. Nice to know the season no longer counts,so by all means the commitee is ripe for payola

 Also this may be the last chance to crown the best teams.By expanding the playoffs more Sunday bound players will bail,leaving teams a just a shell of themselves.Enough to change the course of the games outcomes. This just proved the The University heads have whorered themselves out on the same level as the Networks Wonks

Harbaugh just thanked baby Jesus for getting in the playoff.

I guess OSU should have prayed more?
nice try tinkerbell one team just won more but you swept that premise under the rug - where your takes reside

It was.  

we have been talking about the political/financial control of the college football game and how it’s gone south, all season long on this forum. ELA has said it best.  

it was probably naïve of me to think that this bold of a move was beyond there courage. They would never eliminate an undefeated conference champion in favor of someone from the SEC.  But their audacity and arrogance is obviously unmitigated.

It's really simple. We all know what the CFP is. 

Alabama brought this to the table:



And FSU brought this:

Who said precedent is king?  Where is that written?  

Cardale Jones went out and played great in OSU's drubbing of Wisconsin in 2014.  He didn't go out and look like a left-hander trying to throw right-handed.

FSU is half a team w/o Travis.  That matters.  IT SAYS SO ON THEIR OWN WEBSITE.  The committee did nothing wrong.

To be fair, FSU has some talented ladies.  And they don't say no.

If precedent doesn’t matter, how can chaos not take over. 

if you tell your team, “hey look, if you win all your games and win the conference, you will go to the championship playoffs”   Because that happens 100% of the time, how do you explain this.?

If losing an early season game means nothing then why do two power five schools ever want to schedule each other again?

If Penix was out and their backups pooped the bed, UW should be out.

FSU is a shell of it's former self.  Why is it such blasphemy to say so?

You'd have misspoken to your team.
It HAS happened 100% SO FAR.  Who guaranteed it into perpetuity?  LOL
