CFB Playoff Selection

[Dawgsauce]

Pretty sure it was a joke.

Well. If it's one thing I know, FSU is a joke. Also, I have a terrible sense of humor.

Conf champs get byes

 

[Husker_in_OK]

Conf champs get byes

I know. My point is that is it's ridiculous that was the decided format

 

[Irv]

They’re just trying to keep from being sued by conferences that are not Big Ten and SEC by giving the champions byes.

So no reward for winning the conf?

The reward is you’re in and will earn a higher seed with the extra win. The top 2-3 teams get punished with this format.

Not if they win their conference.

Seeing Boise State as a 3 seed in the inaugural college football playoff seems surreal to me.

Inaugural you say?

 

[2010sarenevercomingback]

Well, the other one was a "plus one", so does it really count, with a name that gay?

So Oregon wins their conference and they get the winner of Ohio State and Tennessee, but Penn State and Texas lose and their road to the final 4 is SMU and Boise or Clemson/ASu, respectively? Who would you rather be?

Boise St. plays one team all year with a pulse and they lose. They win their shitty conference and get a bye. It’s a terrible way of seeding teams.

 

[That SOB Van Owen]

So Oregon wins their conference and they get the winner of Ohio State and Tennessee, but Gaetz State and Texas lose and their road to the final 4 is SMU and Boise or Clemson/ASu, respectively? Who would you rather be?

Yep. The 5 seed is the best spot in the playoff. Better than getting a bye.

To be fair to them, that loss was on the road to Oregon and by 3 points

No team from the Mountain West deserves a playoff bye .. not even the Big 12. Let them in the playoffs, but seed them appropriately ..
