Seems mainly the bold.

The Canes played 3 teams who were ranked at the time the game was played and were 1-2.

They won @#18 Louisville 47-34.

They lost @#1 Clemson 42-17.

They lost to #17 UNC 62-26.
Miami is improved but still not a contender......they got beat up by better teams in Clemson and UNC.

@dtgold88 @Stakesarehigh @Shanemansj13

So Ohio State played yet another game missing more than 20 players. Just more proof that community college in ann arbor was scared of the Bucleyes. Bunch of maze 'n blew pussies.

Hope whatever's wrong with Fields (hand/thumb?) he'll be 100% for whatever Ohio State's next game is.

The book is out on Fields now though. Throw some zones etc at him. He has to figure those out at the next level.

There's literally nothing to prove what you're saying is true this season so we need to stop the assumptions. I have nothing that tell me LSU would have been some powerhouse in the ACC or BIG....same goes for Auburn who needed the refs assistance to beat Arkansas and Ole Miss. I'll give you Georgia being good in other conferences but thats about it. The teams that finished below Georgia in the conference wouldn't do anything in the other power 5 conferences

History. Eye test.

The ACC has been weak for a long time. The SEC has been the best/deepest conference for a long time.

This year they beat up on each other without any break.

Yep that’s why I wanted him to come back one more year. I know he wont if he is projected #2 but it would do him some good. Stands in the pocket too long and sometimes too long making reads. You don’t have much time in the NFL...just ask Daniel Jones lol

Yes they are....Did I say Indiana wasnt?

You love putting words in my mouth.

Go find me a post where I said Indiana wasn't a good team....and while you're at find me that post from today where I said anything about A&M being in the playoffs
you've cried about the OSU schedule as a reason for them not to get in. IU is on their schedule. You also tried to tell us that many of NDs opponents were better than OSU's opponents. But, hey, if you now say IU is a borderline top 10 team (and should be higher ranked than UNC) and TAM should not be in, why again does OSU not deserve to be there?

They played 2 out of the 3 best teams in their conference 3x....Not sure what more you want from a scheduling standpoint this year when teams were only playing teams in their conference
yet you want to hold OSU's schedule against them when other than the Illinois game they also had no control....and never lost.

I answered you already.

Texas AM is better. SEC is WAY stronger than the ACC.

And if you don’t want to give them a shot, then Cincinnati.

The ACC does not deserve to get 2 teams in. That is insane. Because Notre Dame scored 1 flukey win and played a nothing schedule? No way.

And UNC is not that good. Calling them borderline top 10 is crazy. Based on what?

Played 2 ranked teams all year and a bunch of garbage beyond.
While I mostly agree with your premise here kind of hard to know which conference is strong and which is weak when all they do is play each other. Not sure TAM's schedule or resume is "WAY" stronger. want to call it flukey they beat Clemson? OK, but still think that's a better win than beating now 3 loss UF. And each got stomped by the elite team they played and otherwise had middling schedules.

A&M played 2 ranked teams all year.... Their wins aren't better than ND

Vandy (0-9)
UF (8-2)
Miss State (3-7)
Arkansas (3-7)
South Carolina (2-8)
LSU (5-5)
Auburn (6-4)
Tennessee (3-6)

Also, SEC isn't that good this year. You're just making up shit. Bama, UF, and UGA are the good teams excluding A&M. The other 10 teams are mediocre or trash
happen to agree with this (other the absurd idea you think you can know which conferences are best with intraconference only)....but why, again, does ND deserve to be in over OSU? Is it really because OSU lost 2 games on their schedule through no fault of their own, as they beat who you call a borderline top 10 team and another top 20 team?

SEC is slightly better than ACC. Really not much of a difference.

1 great team, a few good teams then a shitload of mediocre/bad teams
so like the BIG yet for some reason you think the BIG sucks?

Ohio State will make the playoff.

Too talented.

Too big of a fan base.

Too much money including them.

And one of the 4 best teams.
I don't think fan base and money matter much like many think. Isn't the money already in (as far as network) and few fans allowed at the games this year.

If this were the first vote, I guess they could use the 6 games played to keep them out as a reason. But since they were 4th BEFORE this weekend hard to imagine a team who lost remains ahead of them AND they get passed by a team who beat a lesser team than OSU beat and did not win their conference.
