I am honestly not trolling, but rather believe what I am saying. If VA Tech beats Clemson then the Bedlam winner goes at the 4 seed.

First of all, we need 6 or 8 teams. Second of all, this bcs rankings stuff needs to go. Do a selection at end of season, like bball.

Why should meeeechegan get in?:noidea: They lost to Iowa, they lost to their main rival:yes: & finished 3rd in their own division. The only way the wolvereeeenies belong in the Playoff is if Jimmy Jam buys tickets for the team.


fuck meeeechegan!!!

You are seriously asking me that, when I answered it in the post you quoted. Come on man, don't be so ohio state. Your reason are valid (although I disagree with their importance).

My reasons are valid yet you still disagree w/ them? Typical meeeechegan comment.

I cannot put a 3rd place B1G team in playoffs over an Oklahoma (which scheduled hard ooc) and went undefeated in conference.

And I like Michigan.

The committee WANTS to put Michigan in.......if Wisconsin wins and Clemson loses, guess who's getting that 4th spot?

They're DYING to put in Michigan, looking for any excuse

Disagreeing with them and disagreeing with their importance it two different things. It should be quite evident that I am a homer (I don't hide that or try to claim that is not part of my premise). Please try to read.

Unless VA Tech beats Clemson. The playoff will be seeded as follows:
1. Alabama vs 4. Penn State/Wisconsin
2. Clemson vs 3. Washington

I bolded my projected conference champions.
The buckeyes are in. They're one of the 4 best teams. I can't see anything happening that would prevent that.

I disagree. A 10-2 conference Champ will get in before Ohio State and Michigan is as out of it as my Auburn.

You're a homer & biased. You want Yer Boyz in for only those reasons. Please try to be unbiased (not that you can though).

Michigan DESTROYED both PSU and Wiscy......they are IN if PSU loses, I'm telling you

H2H WILL matter more to the committee

If penn st wins by 50 and okie st wins by 50, then the committee would have a tougher decision. I still think Urban and the boys still get in but it would be fun to see them sweat a bit

I would be shocked if ohio state did not get in ... sorry they have earned it. It's a National Championship not a B1G Championship. They played a tough ooc schedule and lost one game. Only Alabama deserves it more.

I am not disagreeing with this part. IMHO the committee will put a value on conference championships as to not discourage tough OOC games.

I guess I didn't put it simply enough. I am biased and I am comfortable being biased. I do try to be objective. If I were choosing which 4 teams should be in the playoffs, they would be Alabama (1), ohio state (2), Clemson (3) and Washington (4). If Clemsons loses (and I were choosing the playoff teams), I would excuse myself from the vote because I would be biased.

Under that mindset Penn States final resume would be 11-2 with a conference championship and a H2H win over Ohio State. Which is why I believe talking heads like Kirk Herbstreit and Robert Smith are panicking.

Simplifying your biased opinions does change anything, you're still being biased.
