[@matthew01234]

Georgia is getting some credit because they had by far the hardest schedule of any playoff team. There #3 overall in schedule strength and that doesn't even include the upcoming Texas game yet. Once that happens Georgia will probably finish with the #1 hardest schedule in all of college football. Compared to team like Oregon who was #60 overall and SMU who was #75 overall Georgia's schedule was exponentially harder. Oregon and SMU are both likely getting first round bye's despite their cakewalk schedules so the NCAA is factoring Georgia's brutal schedule strength when it comes to rankings. The other thing is that Georgia Tech was a surprisingly good this season relative to their typical performance. If Tech has won that game they would've finished 9-4 and ended up only 1 game behind Alabama. In fact Georgia Tech beat Alabama this season and Alabama is a playoff team. This is honestly the best Georgia Tech team I've ever seen. So playing Georgia Tech is no easy win this season. Also, overtime or no overtime, Georgia won the game. No matter how close the game is, anytime a team wins against a solid playoff eligible team that had already beaten Alabama it usually results in the winning team getting a boost in the rankings. If UGA hadn't gone up in the rankings that would have been very rare. Especially considering this a season where Georgia Tech had already beaten Alabama. Anytime you beat a team who has already beaten a playoff team you go up in the rankings.

Everyone is damn close to an independent power schedule, just like ND plays. Keep ND from the bye, fine.

Marcus Freeman has said that since his team's terrible 2-point loss to NIU, ND has treated every subsequent game as if it were a playoff one. The CFP committee should reward ND with the 5 seed; Penn State is less deserving, and the Nittany Lions should not get the committee's sympathy if they lose to Oregon. No B1G 10 team is that special thatvit deserves the 5th seed. If that were to happen, then the committee would then be unfairly rewarding a conference game loser of a conference title game.

They beat armt navy a&m and Louisville and gt lol so cap yall are just annoying asf tbh

[@thomasmoss1066]

SMU? Boise? OK fine but lets stop complaining about the SEC. If we are going by the best teams, you could get rid of SMU, Boise and ASU and replace them with South Carolina and Ole Miss.

[@bjf5027]

They really just need to pick the top 12 teams for the playoff. This conference champion crap is stupid

[@buckeyefan3894]

I like that Boise State and Arizona State may have a chance

[@bjf5027]

@buckeyefan3894 it's nice but it's not fair to the true top 12 teams

[@The_Chris_Anderson]

I see why they thought it was a good idea tho. 1. It spices things up 2. I’m sure they thought there’d at least be 1 top 12 team from each conference 3. It guarantees at least 1 G5 team gets a shot which has been the argument in the past when a G5 teams goes undefeated in their schedule vs a 1-2 loss Alabama and they had to decide who got in and who didn’t. 4. From a money/viewer perspective you have at least 1 team from 5 different conferences in the playoff. 5. It all around brings tons of debate to it all and that brings views. For them it makes complete sense and I don’t mind it

[@buckeyefan3894]

@@bjf5027 I would argue that we expanded to 12 partly to allow those smaller teams a chance in the first place. Remember a 9-3 P5 team never would have even been thinking about playoffs before expansion

Bro get off yourself acting like the prediction wasn't already completely predictable.

[@ZachHiggins-jt3zf]

Eye test, it should matter that OSU lost the last game to Michigan, Tenn has continued getting better, which is what your supposed to do, penn st and indiana are overrated. Yes i’m a sec guy, but miami should be in over alabama. I only hope that when Penn St and Indiana get smoked this year they will stop this nonsense next year.

[@MarkHoezee]

Miami doesn’t belong. Horrible defense . Notre dame will lose their first game,beyond overrated

[@mlgblazeit6939]

Just so everyone knows, if Clemson beats SMU they will 100% screw SMU and put Bama in over them. B12 and ACC championships are just play in games. It's obvious what they're doing.

[@SamuelCulper-h6s]

It wouldn’t screw SMU. If they lose, it means they have no wins v top 25. Bama has 4!

[@mlgblazeit6939]

@@SamuelCulper-h6s But they literally said they wouldn't punish a team for playing the extra conference championship game...but I guess they only meant SEC and B1G.

[@SamuelCulper-h6s]

@@mlgblazeit6939 No, SMU losing to Clemson and being knocked out isn’t punishment. It’s reality.

[@weaktallguy5114]

People cry so much about the playoffs every year it's the worst part of this time in the season. If your team did enough to be in the playoffs, they're almost certainly in already. The teams who didn't prove themselves, its on them and them alone for losing in an awful conference or not beating enough good teams.

[@joehaynes7092]

Bama gets this special dynasty treatment and they don’t even have a dynasty anymore sabans gone they loss 3 times for the first time since 2007

[@anthonynicolo5806]

My team Tennessee have one of the best football baseball and basketball program in the entire country but this guy said Ohio State buckeyes is better they lost to a terrible Michigan team that was 5-5 record

[@JacobGrant-r7y]

They honestly nailed it. Miami should probably be 8-4,Bama is far more talented. South Carolina doesn't have an amazing win.

[@Sal-h2l]

Saying a team is far more talented means nothing. Michigan beat OSU the last four years with less talent "according to rankings".

[@JacobGrant-r7y]

The committee also loves Alabama, keep that in mind.

[@copocopocopocopo]

​@@JacobGrant-r7ySooooo.... beating Clemson AT Clemson isn't an amazing win? Okay.

[@slibertas1996]

Indiana should be higher than both Tennessee and Ohio St due to better record

[@CantonNative330]

Indiana lost to Ohio st. So csnt

[@scooberz2015]

FPI is irrelevant. You don't use perceived ability as a way to rank teams. I mean a lot of people do but they're beyond stupid. All metrics that aren't based entirely on results are fking stupid. Great explanation for Ohio State, and them being at 6 is totally fine. Michigan loss is bad, but they have the best resume of 2 loss teams. Your explanation for Alabama was nonsensical. You declared Ole Miss "not a playoff" team because they had a last second loss to a bad team. Alabama JUST got SKUNKED by a bad team. It's this simple. The committee died the moment they decided that -Miami crushes Wake, Miami loses by 3 to 9 - 3 Syracuse -Alabama bests Mercer and has a meh win over 5 - 7 Auburn And somehow, THATS enough to bump them ahead of Miami. It's absolute absurdity. Alabama is almost assuredly a better team than Miami or BYU. Both are far more deserving. Ask yourself this? If Miami and Bamas schedules are flipped and Miami is the 9 - 3 team, do you think they would jump 10 - 2 Bama? I rest my case. (Also using rankings created by a group of individuals to support OTHER rankings given by a group of individuals is circular reasoning, it's a complete fallacy)

[@shanegaddy4000]

Bruh it has nothing to do with the losses. Its who they lost to and when they lost to them. The number "3" in the loss collumn is irrelevant losing to vandy and oklahoma is the real reasonnthey should be out. All if alabama losses are on the road. And the comitte exoects us to bekieve bama will go on the road and win when all the evidnecs is to the contrary when all three losses is on the road lol. There is no logic in this conversation.

[@Gorion-ch9xo]

Indiana shouldn’t be in they Rey get smoked Miami or South Carolina should be in over them they can actually compete

[@joehaynes7092]

Mannnn bama got 3 losses lads and 2 were awful losses. But they still go over 2 loss big 12 and acc teams. Strength of schedule should be a tie breaker not a get out of jail free card. And Miami refs giving them the game nobody punishes games being 1 point win a win is a win who cares if refs blow games.

[@shanegaddy4000]

Alabama is nit the same team whi beat georgia lol and it can be argued georgia was going thru a slump and there inconsistent lol
