Miami will declare themselves ineligible if they make the championship game and not play either.

And Georgia Tech will win the Coastal by default. If Miami declares a self imposed bowl ban they automatically give up their spot in the ACC championship game as well. Then we get to hear from FSU fans how amazing FSU is because they beat a mediocre GTech team for the ACC championship and go beat up Rutgers in the Orange Bowl and have a BCS win under their belt under Jimbo.

Sucks for the seniors on this team that have roughed out this madness like Mike James but its the right thing to do so it hopefully helps with the pending NCAA sanctions.

I doubt it though. The NCAA is set to make an example and Miami is the perfect team to do it to in their eyes.

Whats crazy is the Buckeyes will be undefeated after probably beating Michigan as well. Its been a weird year.

not a given

[Cnasty]

Which part?

Rutgers is winning the Big East (at least the last time I checked)

FSU should roll GTech

Nothing is a given except if the above 2 happen, FSU fans ranting about an over rated BCS win under Jimbo.

[OracleHCR]

They Should roll Georgia Tech. They should've rolled NC State.

I understand they only have one loss but K State got routed by a 5-5 team. How are they still in the top 10?

Still hard to find 10 teams with clearcut better resumes.

[OracleHCR]

I understand that but they didn't just lose, they got beat by 3 touchdowns by a team that was below .500 before they lost to them. That should be taken into consideration.

[shel311]

Oklahoma is a border line top 10 team and you can't put them behind OU.

When does the playoff start?

Oregon needs UCLA to win so that they can play Oregon in the pac-12 Championship. 2 wins vs UCLA and Oregon State would seem to help Oregon a lot... also Florida State winning.


Damn next week looks like it's going to be awesome for college football.

If UCLA and USC win and Oregon Wins out...they will probably end up playing Bama (as long as they win out) in the chipper, we need Florida State to win as well though just so Florida doesn't stay up there haha. TONS of things need to happen

Exactly, that loss should have dropped them 10+ spots at very least. It's one thing to lose a close game like Bama, Florida, Oregon, even the Noles. Perhaps it is just me, but getting blown out makes it impossible for me to consider a team as a reasonable contender for the national championship. Given this I would ranked LSU much higher than both KSU and UGA.

I agree, and when your loss comes against a non ranked 5-5 team, and it wasn't even close all game. Totally agree.

If you are going to say the amount a team loses by is part of your equation then you have to say the amount a team wins by is also in your equation then.

If thats the case, LSU barely beats a 5-5 bad Ole Miss team at home in which Ole Miss lead almost the entire game.

So in your math, you put LSU above Kstate??

I dont get it.

A score amount shouldnt matter when determining how good a team is when said team has beaten top 10 teams on the road as well as steam rolling anyone else that has come against them so far. Kstate has done that and everyone has a bad night. Especially in Raleigh...on a Thursday.

This is why debates over who has a better loss is just ridiculous. And congrats on making me take the bait.

Of course how much a team wins by should matter. A narrow win by LSU over a so so team doesn't elevate them, it's pretty much treading water.

ND is going to the title game, Barkley isn't playing against them.

Looks like Bama or Georgia vs Notre Dame.

[fsupenguin]

I'll be the first to congratulate the SEC on another national championship, I guess I hope it's Bama cause the Bulldog fans around here are bad enough as it is. I cannot imagine the mouths on them if they ever win another championship.

Would be sweet to see uga in the championship and win it.

I like richt.

Florida/Georgia rematch for the NC. You heard it here first.

[Cnasty]

If that shitty Florida team has a shot to play in the title game, this system is beyond fucked

Your beloved playoff system gives them an even better shot at playing in the title game
