I think you are spot on.Bleeding Red wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 11:30 am This is what we know after several years from the CFP committee:
They can angle their guidelines in how they rank teams based on whatever they choose to use from the many different variables so they can get to the final 4 that they want to see. Stats, conference championships,head to heads do not matter to them.
*Conference championships do not matter (Penn St, Ohio State and USC)
*Winning the DIVISION of your conference doesnt matter (Alabama)
*The will do whatever they need to make sure they have the best chance to get 2 SEC teams into the playoffs and make sure they have at least one SEC team in the playoffs
*Win/Loss is the only thing that matters- SEC has the easiest scheduling in all power 5 conferences by only playing 8 conference games and also loading up on FCS schools (this weekend is basically a bye week for them). The ACC has followed suit. Why play anyone that matters when you can play The Citadel (Bama), Idaho (Florida) , Middle Tennessee (Kentucky), UAB (Texas A&M), (Rice) LSU and Chattanooga (South Carolina). Complete joke.
This can easily been seen (again) in this weeks rankings:
Georgia ranked higher than LSU- so head to heads do not matter even though LSU beat Georgia by 20. Complete and utter joke. CFP Committee loses any and all credibility right there.
But there is a reason they do this stuff- they want to make sure that Georgia is ranked as HIGH as POSSIBLE when they play Bama. It is their safety net for if Bama loses or if Georgia wins.
Guess who the highest ranked 2 loss team is? LSU- SEC team
Guess who the highest ranked 3 loss team is? Florida- SEC team
Guess who the highest ranked 4 loss team is? Mississippi State- SEC team
The committee has done this the past 3 years. Prop SEC (and now ACC) teams up as high as they can in the top 25 so their biased opinions look to carry weight.
Nothing but a sham. I think they need to either go to an 8 team playoff (all conference winners, 3 at large, all at large needs to at least win their respective division of their conference). Top 4 ranked teams host the first round. Get some of these southern schools up north.
I bet if Bama gets beat by Georgia and dont make it in, there will be an 8 team playoff as early as next year!
Fair take(s) Raiderball. I am in the South and over the years have seen most SEC and ACC teams. Of course I grew up a Buckeye and BIG 10 fan and have seen all of the midwest squads except Maryland, Nebraska and Rutgers. The difference in the style and quality of football between the two areas is real, and that difference is speed. We can beat our chests about the Bucks all day and night but you are only as good as your competition, and the top to bottom level competition level in the midwest pales to the south because of speed. Yeah Ohio State had an outlier in 2014, but we really have little room to criticize the SEC, ACC, or Big12 on quality or schedule. The debate though is what makes fandom fun.Raiderball wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 5:45 pm Responding to some of the comments on this topic...
1. when we see the wide open, high scoring offenses of the Big XII it is because of "woeful" defense.
2. On the other hand watching "woeful" offenses of the Big 14... what a great defensive game we watched.
3. Playing all fbs schools... some of those fbs schools like Rutgers, Oregon St, and Kansas probably couldn't make the 16 team playoffs if they were playing at the fcs level.
4. What is the difference playing a terrible fbs team or an fcs team in week 11 vs playing them in week 1 or 2?
Waiting to hear the responses.

Big 14 made big mistake adding Rutger and Mary. Watered down the conference all for the sake of money from the NY, Baltimore/DC tv markets. The speed factor was definitely on display as far back as OSU's losses to LSU and UF back in the days of the BCS championships. As for the scheduling, most all of P5 schools play a cupcake or two every year. Any school playing 7-8 home games a year is paying someone to come in and be their whipping boy.Omega wrote: ↑Fri Nov 16, 2018 10:02 pmFair take(s) Raiderball.

Then come back and let us know if they are FCS or not. A UM fan...
None of these noon games are worth watching today. I chose John Wayne and the "Green Berets" for the umpteenth time.
