In case people forgot, there were people arguing that it should have been TCU, not Baylor.

Go back to August and you'll find at least 200 threads with the same simplistic means of thinking.

For a while there I was beginning to think Oregon had somehow joined the SEC. :L

We all know who was the lead in that. :nod: Nut swinging at it's finest, without a rational thought.

Shit, Oregon was crowned the Champion by half this board without a down being played. Funny shit

I had Alabama crowned champion before Oregon. Sorry (no I'm not), hating ohio state is in the blood. We did learn a few things from the playoff:

1. People like the playoff

2. The committee made the right decision

3. ohio state earned the title of champion

The committee simply got the (1-4) order wrong is all. Something that will probably be the case most years.

Other than that they did well.

I don't know about that, I think it was good. Bama lost to a good team at the time they played. Oregon list to a good team and got to avenge the loss convincingly. FSU deserved to be in by being undefeated in a P5.

I think he means in hindsight.

Just my thoughts:
1. I thought TCU was one of the top 4
2. Regardless of that, at a minimum 4 of the top 5 played for a title
3. Winning 2 games against that field proves you championship quality.. End of story

The thing that fucked up this year is that the Big12 refs fucked up two PI calls down the stretch of the TCU-BAYLOR game. Otherwise, tOSU doesn't have a title this year.

Bucknuts, you gonna send b12 refs a muffin basket?

Right but I think even in hindsight the rankings were correct. tOSU proved they were better but they didn't earn a #1 ranking before those games.

In hindsight Ohio St is the #1 team and thus if they had correctly listed the teams Ohio St it would have been:

#1 Ohio St vs #4 FSU
#2 Alabama vs #3 Oregon

But the odds of them getting the order right are pretty slim and it's not a big deal at all.

And that is why the playoffs are great. You get a chance to prove people wrong
